Cool! I’ve been looking for a IR loader. 

[Lizzie Foster]

Can you use this as a general reverb or is it just guitars only?

I have Waves IR-L, but it sometimes is a pain to load external IR's into it. 

[projectm]

Hah, good question! I have no idea how an IR loader is different from a reverb plug-in, but I will try to load a reverb ir into it and see what happens

[Sander Verstraten]

Yeah with all the IR Loaders for Guitar Cabs floating around. I really don't know what the difference really is between all of these.

Cab IR Loaders are basically Convolution Reverbs/players/loaders with guitar/guitar cab centric features.

Of course you will get various additions, features etc, but that's basically it.

I believe if you find a convolution reverb that can import load .wav files, you can load your cab IR and bob's your uncle.

Way back before stand alone/dedicated cab IR loaders were around like today, that's what I use to use, convolution reverb to load the cab IR's, I forget the one I use to use, but I would still have it stored away on CD/DVD.

Code:  UG15 for a little more off

I picked this up but not sure why when I got the aIR Impulse Rack - which is still selling for $10

It has phase switching, phase delay and multiple other features. Even at twice the price it's still a better deal (IMHO).

Which begs the question - can you use one of these multi IR loaders as a fancy multi-IR handling Convolution reverb?
Don't see why not, will have to try at some point.

That is basically what IR loaders are doing, convolution reverb. MConvolutionEZ is part of Melda's free bundle that seemed to be released to fill the "IR loader" spot. The paid for ones can be more heavy-handed, but are overkill to simply "use an IR."

With RedWirez, with the BIG Box (not available as such anymore, all separate for the latest release) they supplied EQ curves from 1073 and impedance curves from various speakers etc to load with your Cab IR, you can use Reverbs etc, mix it all around to your liking and export a single IR to use later or elsewhere. The EQ IR's/curves can give you some very nice results in certain occasions, as do the impedance IR's/curves (they have dropped the impedance stuff in the latest releases) For the new stuff they have Neve and API EQ packs available which again can yield nice results in certain instances.

Basically if they are compatible you can go to town with IR's made of whatever.
