All,
this patch is explained in Vail's Vintage Synthesizers book. The patch is shown with a 2600 in mind. I tried it out two days ago, but I have no clue as to what the authentic "Frankenstein" sound actually is so I'm not sure how close I got. It sounded cool though.. It had to do with FM of the VCF with res fully up with a sine VCO at a high frequency (couple thousand hz). The VCA was controlled with the AR env gen and the ADSR was I think controlling the VCO and filter also.. AR and ADSR were clocked at around 4-5 Hz Hmmmm.. anyone got that book nearby? (I'm at school) The book said to slide the VCF'S ADSR CV amount slider up and down to the beat..... hmm
good luck

(along the way, I stumbled upon the vowelly sounding filter FM ting mentioned on AH recently. I found that byt FMing the vcf with a sine and having the vco and vcf cutoff at around the same freq, the vowelly sounds came out. it happened at around 125hz and a little below 1000hz.. but who knows how out of tune this 2600 is.. anyone care to explain these frequency/sound relationships for us??)
