Actually I can do a filter with time varying filter at audio rate with _NO_
glithces or artifacts, stable (essentially behaving like an analog one).
The point is that the BLIT harmonic content changes in modulation (because
you have to cut harmonics as you are sweeping hi) and that results in spikes
in amplitudes that are before the integrator (so the BLIT itself in
modulation clicks and pops). Since freq change could not happen at perfect
zerocrossings this effect is unavoidable (unless keeping the same harmonic
content for BLIT thus aliasing in sweeps which is awful to hear). Also
trying to change freq at zero crossing fails as your freq reaches high
values where periods are of a handful of samples.

i can imagine why.  it's sorta like how some IIR filter topologies fail with
coefficient modulation.

this is another reason that i am a proponent of wavetable synthesis in all
contexts where memory resources allow.  wavetable synthesis is more like a
basic FIR filter: nothing to blow up when parameters are modulated.
