I'm reading through the math headers, and there's functions isinf(x)
and isnan(x)
I'm not yet sure of the syntax.... it's not so common to see these,
like this.  Typically the math functions will add 'f' at the end to
denote a float argument, instead of a double.  Probably there's more I
haven't found yet

it is coming from tabosc~ (I think)... it's just one of those problems
where the lack of default arguments leads to an unexpected result...
