[Clam-devel] SMSSynthesis

[Greg Kellum]

Hi Xavier,

I wasn't sure what you meant by "doing a consistency check to make sure
whether the three output ports are connected or not."  And maybe what I am
about to suggest is actually what you meant, but what do you think about
checking inside the networked Do() whether all three ports are connected and
only computing the IFFTs for those ports which are actually connected?  So,
if only the sinuisuid + residual mixdown is connected one would only do one
IFFT rather than three.

Best,
Greg
