True. I hadn't thought of the extra resonance peak. But you could replicate
the separate cutoff frequencies, couldn't you? There is a specific interval
between cutoff frequencies at any given point in time (width) and by
carefully choosing the center point (i.e. bandpass frequency) you could
probably come close; but given what Dave pointed out, it really wouldn't
sound the same at all unless you kept the filters wide open in all cases.

Interesting. This is the kind of stuff I love to think about but shouldn't
be thinking about while at work! :)
