I would think for audio, there’s no audible difference between a denorm and a flushed zero. Are there cases where denorms are important to audio?

- PaulDavisThe1st 3y agoThey are important in the negative sense: Intel processors are appalling at handling them, and they can break realtime code because of this. My DAW uses both "denormals are zero" and "flush denormals to zero" to try to avoid them; it also offers a "DC Bias" option where extremely small values are added to samples to avoid denormals.
