Well, you can figure out mathematically if this will sound good or just
like garbage. Just figure out the sum + difference of the signals.
I would imagine the octave-up or squared ones would sound fine, but the
phased one would sound like garbage. If you get two signals too close in
range, they would probably start to cancel each other out more and more.
But this is just coming from a guy who doesn't even *have* a ring
modulator on his modular yet...
