OK here is the patch. the NTO is the "master", the DSG "slave":

NTO square out -> DSG in
DSG out -> NCOM "-" in
NCOM out -> DSG Trig in

"NCOM out" is the main (lower) output, not the divided one.
The system output is also taken from here.

Adjust the NCOM bias knob to about the "+2" position to improve the
tone, making it less raspy. You should increase the bias as much as
possible before the system begins to stutter and lose sync.

Any waveform may replace the NTO square, as long as its DC bias is
zero. Hence any of the NTO variable waveforms will work as well as
the sine or PCO sine. The square seems to give best results.
