Yes. However, it is a time-varying comb filter. For pitch shifters, it ends up sounding way better than the fixed comb-filtering effect you get with non-intelligent pitch shifting (no looking for splice points). For reverbs, I'm not sure yet. The artifacts can sound like low bit rate MPEGs at times. I'm not using this in my current work.

I see your point, though. Perhaps there should be a minimum distance between taps that are crossfaded. In this situation, the corresponding time-invariant case would be 2 output taps from the example reverb, rather than a single tap.
