2.2. Can these changes be used to enhance particular affective meaning?

2.2.1. does it make sad music more sad?

3. Future production

3.1. Will this method of subharmonic generation effect your future projects?

3.1.1. easy to replicate?

3.1.2. easy to configure?

3.2. Are there other methods of generating subharmonics which would work better?

3.2.1. Upgrade path

4.3.1. can I create multiple subharmonics by feeding some of the output back into the source?

5. Feasible for production?

5.1. Are they Dynamic?
