well, the result might sound awfull, that's a possibility...
but PWM on square waves sounds good, so may be it's worth a
try with other waveforms and "natural" sounds as well...

IMHO the wisest approach is to process a digital soundfile (no
realtime of course) and check the result before wasting days in
circuit design...
