yes, this is one thing the DSP is particularly good at...

they were digital and they had a variable asmple rate.
The always played 128 samples per waveform, so if you played a 50hz note you
got a sample rate of 6.4Khz, play a 1Khz note and you got 128Khz sample
rate.

this is way beyond me, but theres a few people on here who can help with the
maths of this :-)
My code simply does one 6dB filter, then another, then another and then the
final one.
