Jerry:
I really stole the idea from others on the forum, but I'm too lazy to search for the source posts and give them credit.
This did turn out well, thanks to Martin doing a great job. I ended up with using one building's IRs per preset (waiting for copy/paste presets to expand on that), so I can use the same bus group numbers on all organs and simply change the preset number and wetness scalar slider position to move an organ to a different building.
Within a preset, I have two primary buses for each real speaker pair: Dry and Wet. The Wet buses have an IR appropriate to the speaker position. These are grouped into bus groups by speaker model: Front A3X Dry, Front A3X Wet, Front A8X Dry, Front A8X Wet, Rear T7V Dry, Rear T7V Wet, Rear KRK Dry, and Rear KRK Wet (, and an Oxford comma).
A surround set with enough reverb -- Caen, Nancy, Oloron, St. Michel -- routes to the obvious Dry groups, no IR added. That's most of the samplesets I still have installed.
A surround set that's too dry for me -- Oakland, Portland -- routes to Wet groups after truncating releases to 17.8 msec or whatever I can land on with the slider. (Wish 100 were release truncation off so it would be easier to hit the minimum duration.) Sometimes I keep the releases on Front or Rear and route them to Dry, truncate the other releases and send them to Wet.
A stereo set with enough reverb -- Salisbury, Metz -- routes to Front Dry groups, then perspective 3 gets releases truncated and routed to Rear Wet groups.
A stereo set that's too dry for me or has single releases -- Mt. Carmel, S. Suffolk, Georgian 55 -- gets releases truncated and routed to Front Wet groups, then perspective 3 gets releases truncated and routed to Rear Wet groups.
This all works without a lot of hassle.
