Another question - does this sort of oscillator yield itself to things
like pitch changes or FM?

Otherwise you're limited to quantised pitches if you have to only use delay lengths that are an integer number of samples long. So I guess the normal K-S algorithm is dispersive to some extent.

If every cycle looks just like the next cycle then all of the harmonics are integer multiples of the fundamental. If the harmonics are slightly flat or sharp you get little ripples that ride along the waveform from one cycle to the next. The waveform looks like it "evolves" with time.
