Well, it *is* possible to do this using IRs and convolution, by
having many convolutions in parallel: one working on the signal
x(t), one on x(t)^2, x(t)^3, etc. This allows simulating a time-
invariant nonlinear system. Not so easy in practice. Farina has
a paper on it.

Resonance of the toms: delay + high-Q resonance.
