And i have to admit that i'm not sure that i got the gain thing right in 
jack_convolve. So, as, contrary to me, Fons knows what he's doing, try his 
JACE :) I will, too ;) I only wrote jack_convolve because it seemed faster to 
do to me than understanding/using brutefir's config files (back in the days 
when brutefir was the only usable convolution engine existing. And it still 
has millions more features than jack_convolve) ;)
