enabling sse does not necessarily help ... many host applications don't switch on the sse denormal flushing ... you could try to add a white noise at a very low volume (below the resolution of a 24bit dac) to avoid denormals... cheers ... tim -- tim(a)klingt.org ICQ: 96771783 http://www.mokabar.tk The composer makes plans, music laughs.

Update: Enabling SSE for the SWH plugins actually worked out as a reasonable workaround, while TAP still remains broken even though I did play with various CFLAGS. It is a reasonable solution for this project since SWH has a compressor and an EQ, however of course it would be nice to have as many plugin sets as possible working, perhaps even before authors correct this. I will be more than happy to help testing to solve these problems. Bug reports are being filed. Carlo
