* Certain filters are sensitive to ‘blowing up’ at very low or very high cutoff frequencies and/or resonances, due to the filter coefficients not being perfectly represented with a finite number of bits. While Pure data natively uses 64 bits, platforms like `OWL` and `Daisy` that use 32 bit float are more sensitive to this. For example, the Pure data `[bp~]` filter is implemented with a biquad which is prone to fail or distort with cutoff frequencies less than around 200 Hz (at 48kHz sample rate).
