Well, you'll have to "pump zeroes" until your tail is out, but that's
all... A state machine with three states, basically. If you have no

Branching to
fill your delay line with explit 0.0's intead of
reading them from a buffer of zeros doesn't help. We allready
know that reverbs cant support it at all. Efficieny reasons would
also rule out flangers, delays, most filters and choruses.
Maybe I'm missing something, but how can a test that amounts to
this NOT be faster than doing any work at all?
if (me->silent && XAP_BUF_SILENT(me->in[0]) &&
XAP_BUF_SILENT(me->in[1])) { return;
} As for the 'feature' - let's keep it in
mind, and we'll see how it
fares. If it is not effective, or the burden is really too much,
we'll scrap it. That is why discussions like this are so great.
Yeah.
