#90 GxAmplifier-X LV2 suffering from denormals

[terminator356]

GxAmplifier-X LV2 plugin is suffering from denormals. Verified in QTractor and MusE.
Is there some compile option around this, or can someone look into fixing this, since the amp is
probably the most important part of Guitarix?
It can be cured with an external AC denormal noise generator, but this is not an ideal solution
in such a high-gain amplifier, it would be best if it was taken care of in the code.
Using version 0.39.0 package under openSuse Tumbleweed.

Thanks. Tim from The MusE Sequencer project.

In GxAmplifiers, we use sse based denormal protection. When build without sse flags, we use a noise generator to feed the simulation with values right above denormals, which have worked so far. This is the first time I hear about problems with denormals. So may I ask you, if, the build you use is with sse flags enabled, or without. This is nessesary to know, so that we could check, if we, needs to update our sse based protection (in the pipe), or the protecion without sse support ( are ther still CPU's out there which ain't support sse?)
