Oops, I forgot that the oscillator pitch also changes as you turn the 
FM knob to exponentiate the waveform. So it's not very useful for 
dynamic waveform modulation when you want to maintain a pitch. Sorry 
about that. Thanks to geblinkoort for pointing this out.

Although, if you use the FM1 input with AC coupling then you can sort 
of maintain the pitch. It will wiggle about as the FM1 knob changes 
but the cap will block the DC offset and the pitch will return to 
almost normal. I'm not sure if this is useful or not.
