If resources allow for this, it would be great.
Wonder if the plans for new reverbs include IRs as well...
I've got a good collection of rooms' IRs. And we might use acoustic instruments' IRs as well... it would be great.
I believe convolution reverb is a resource hog,can't see that happening in the Kemper .
Bare in mind when your using Guitar Rig 5(full disclosure, i don't have any experience with this program)or other programs(Logic comes to mind) that have the ability to use convolution reverbs your using full fledge computers.
I have no doubts we will have great reverbs in the future, but my guess is that will be trough great algorithms.
You can however use this as a standalone IR loader, the Logidy EPSi

Sounds amazing.
Brilliant for recording but maybe for live performance too cumbersome for handling. 
Yes, but the Kemper use IRs for cab.
Are you sure about this?
I think Kemper cabs are different from IR's
Considering the size of a typical IR and of a .kipr file I strongly doubt that! :o
I believe that a cab is exactly like the rest of a rig: a file which contains data meant to be interpreted by the Profiler's computational engine\modeller.
IMO the cab converter utility extracts meaningful data from the IR file in a similar manner that the Profiler itself interprets an amp's response and codes the related data in its proprietary encoding.

So, what do you say in the end, you doubt it's an IR or you doubt it's a different beast? 
Unless they have come up with a way to conserve memory, it's definitely not an IR

Yep, sorry, that was rather obscure from my side 
I was responding to Vince as for my Notifications, was not yet aware of your post...

Does an IRs loader actually use more CPU than an algorithm ?
It obviously depends on the algorithm and on the loader (IOW on how optimized they are). This would be like asking whether a Ford uses more gas than a Renault... too generic a question.
OTOH, the point here is that a rig runs like a single algorithm, while in order to run a rig plus a cab's IR you'd need to run two algorithms at the same time.

Haven't seen or heard of that before. What a great product!
