>>> Denormalisation is an issue with some audio hosts that don't switch off the plugin's audio task when the song is stopped or a track contains silence (or with instruments: no key is pressed while a sound decays).<<<

Experiences anybody?

Yes i've heard about it.
It is supposedly a problem with some plug-ins . Mostly for Pentium IV but the problem exists on other CPU:s as well.
You can rewrite your plugins to avoid the problem.

I don't have a P4, but I know that the german KEYBOARDS-magazine created a little patch to solve this problem.
If somebody wants, I'd post it.
