hmm... according to the web page, it uses a four quadrant multiplier
instead of a vca to modulate the depth of the fm.
so if you have a ring modulator in your rig then you can get the same
effect? route your fm modulating signal to 'signal' of your ring mod,
and the depth modulating signal to the 'carrier', and send the ring mod
output to your normal fm linear input. might be fun to try....
