Two directions we could take:

 # No parameters

 # Enough parameters to be interesting

A problem with "no parameters" is that there is such a big difference in [[Speed|processing speed]] between different configurations. There's a strong case to be made for offering at least a choice between fast/draft mode and slow/thorough mode.

 * The most obvious difference would be that "fast mode" should suppress the 5-step shift factor.

 * We might also consider using a finer-grained time step in "slow mode". I think the current 40ms step results in audible jitter, though I may be wrong (possibly any timing imprecision results mostly from some other aspect of the method).
