The other problem is locating exactly where the problem exists: I'm using
Faust <http://faust.grame.fr/> to generate the reverb DSP code, so
injecting DC offset would involve me tinkering with the reverb algorithm.
I'd prefer leave it alone, but the outputs of the reverb can be DC-offseted
easily. I don't think that would be enough... since the denormals could /
would also exist internally in the reverb algo?
Yes they would, at the output it's too late.
Any IIR will have chain of delay elements, with both the
feedback and the output being a weighted sum of those.
Addin 1e-20f to the input of the delay chain will avoid
denormals and be inaudible.
