Thanks, Michael and JP!
I ended up using this, which takes the log of a number between 1 and 2,
instead of trying to take the log of a number near zero:
// constantly falling frequency
2.0 * STARTING_FREQ *
Math.pow(2.0, -1.0 * Math.log2((1.0*(i +
OCTAVE_STEPS))/(1.0*OCTAVE_STEPS))) => r.freq;
That works fine.
