That could be a real bastard for synthesized music at high frequencies then - most
of it consists of sharp-edged waves not dis-similar to triangle waves. The degree to
which the sine wave is reproduced also depends on the degree of oversampling used if
I remember correctly. I actually meant a square wave not a triangle wave, but it's
the same principal, just a different distortion pattern.
