Bug description

The WahWah effect sounds very different in the preview than the rendered output when resonance is set to a high value.

Steps to reproduce

Synthesize a few seconds of pink noise and set up a WahWah effect with the following settings:

• LFO Frequency 2.0
• LFO Start Phase 0.0 / any
• Depth 100%
• Resonance 4.0 ~ 8.0
• Wah frequency offset 30%
• Output gain 0.0

Click the preview button to play the sound, then click apply and note the result.

Expected behavior

I would expect the rendered output to be similar to the preview. Alternatively, I would expect the option to perform a high-quality preview or render a low-quality output so that the preview matches the result. Ideally both.

Currently I find the aliased resonance produced in the preview much more interesting than what I can achieve in a rendered output.

Actual behavior

The resonance is much less apparent in the output than the preview, possibly as a result of reduced harmonic distortion. The rendered output seems to have significantly less high-frequency activity.
