Right on, I was using the SC4 or SC4 mono plugins on all the tracks. 
When I took those out, everything went back to normal again.

I even thought of denormals but didn't even bother testing Steve's 
plugins because they usually work so well.

So, everything well again! Thanks tons this was perfect...

I'm using a 2GHz Intel Pentium 4 processor, BTW.
