please correct me, if i'm wrong, but they should overlap by a few
samples to have a sample-accurate 4-point interpolation ... (at least
when reading from the table with tabread4~)

however, this would be a wonderful application for a double-precision
floating point signal, which could possibly be implemented by using two
single-precision floating point signals to represent one
double-precision signal on top of the pd signal backend ...
the gained precision would be enough to address several years of audio
material :)
