Fellow ChucKists,<div><br></div><div>I&#39;m rather displeased right now, which is a bit of a euphemism for &quot;I feel like breaking stuff&quot;.</div><div><br></div><div>I have a issue in my sequencer that I&#39;m sure relates to floating-point denormalisation (involving a feedback loop on a LiSa) as I have CPU spikes that occur after a while and stay present after re-starting ChucK. These are quite hard to pinpoint as they take a while to surface. Even if I would find the culprit I&#39;d then have to see whether it still exists in the current version of ChucK because I&#39;m running into this on the latest ASIO version that we have around, which is downright out of date.</div>
<div><br></div><div>All of this is very, very frustrating, frustrating to the tune of looking for what&#39;s wrong for three days on end. It&#39;s probably fixable but it&#39;s frustrating that there is no canonical ASIO version of ChucK and that there hasn&#39;t been more attention to floating-point denormalisation. One of the main advantages over SC is that we can do sample-accurate feedback in CK, yet we throw much of that away if we risk this. There is also no Windows version out of the box that can use multi-channel audio and have acceptable latency.</div>
<div><br></div><div>Both seem quite serious to me. Could something be done about this? I&#39;ve been thinking about how hard it would be to port my setup to a hardware PIC or even SC. None of this should be necessary at all; a out-of-the-box ASIO version is quite reasonable and  I believe that from the time denormalisation has been a issue there have been instructions to simply round to 0.</div>
<div><br></div><div>Yours,</div><div>Kas.</div>
