Notes
# Sine-on-sine linear FM
A cycling GTS supplies audio-rate modulation to the NTO linear FM input.
## Start here
Lower the monitoring level before patching. These are documented patch designs, not claims of hardware audition.
Unless this recipe uses the right Mix Pro for control voltage: center its DC offset, zero unused channels, and bring up only the cabled audio inputs. Connect Audio Interface MIX OUT to your normal monitoring chain.
1. Tune NTO to a mid-register note. Set GTS lower to symmetric audio-rate cycling, near the same pitch.
2. Start NTO LIN FM depth at zero; increase gradually.
## Cables
1. GTS XL lower END OUT → GTS XL lower TRIG IN.
2. GTS XL lower SINE (AC) → NTO LIN FM.
3. NTO SINE → Edelweiss right Mix Pro IN 1.
4. Edelweiss right Mix Pro OUT → Audio Interface AUX IN.
## Listen for
The sine acquires sidebands. Simple frequency ratios sound more harmonic; detuning introduces moving roughness.
## Play it
Move the GTS pitch through unison, octave and in-between positions at moderate FM depth.
## If it misbehaves
If the carrier slides far in pitch, reduce modulation depth; use the black AC SINE jack beside lower END OUT, not the white SINE below it.
