* Unless you know what you are doing, you should set these as follow:
*
* o = 2 * M_PI * bandwidth * period_in_seconds
* feedback2_factor = sqrt(2) * o
* feedback3_factor = o * o
*
* Where bandwidth is up to you to choose. Smaller values will filter out more
* of the jitter, but also take a longer time for the loop to settle. A good
* starting point is something between 0.3 and 3 Hz.
