I still think that you are going to color your results. You need to
approach the problem scientifically, otherwise you will have no
transportable data to apply. If you are simply building source
material, then you will probably get some great results, But I get
the sense you are investigating the underlying interactions, these
will be masked by the other interactions that you are not searching
for (the SOUND of the BASS (IMO)).
Good luck, and this might help. Section: PWM, FM and Sync
(Specifically) It talks the talk the otherway _ Sync
