If you change the pitch of the sidetone, the location of the signal in
the passband will change, so if you want to maintain the same relative
location (which you certainly will want to do with narrow bandwidths),
then you must readjust the filters.
I've gotten very good at doing this with Spectrogram; I can do the whole
thing in a couple of minutes!
