This issue is related to https://www.w3.org/2011/audio/track/issues/28 but with the additional complication of internal state.

May the oscillator type and wave table (for CUSTOM) be modified at any time, or should such modifications throw an exception if playbackState > UNSCHEDULED_STATE?

It would certainly be simpler to implement if an Oscillator is "frozen" once created, but it's not clear if continuously modifying the waveform is desirable for some types of effects.
