****** Bamd-limited Saw via FM feedback *******

based on research from : http://scp.web.elte.hu/papers/synthesis1.pdf

In the paper linked above, the author describes how a sine oscillator whose
output is used to modulate itself produces harmonics similar to a saw wave.
With additional filtering, this waveform can create a reasonable version
of a band-limited sawtooth wave.

A scaling factor is applied to the amount of feedback used for modulation.
The scaling factor can in turn be scaled in a range of {0,1} to create a 
low-pass filter effect; here that effect is controlled via GUI.
