I tried it many moons ago and they did some weird things to the operators ,wasn't sure what it was exactly untill I nailed it 100 percent in reaktor .
Bitwig FM4 actually restricted the ouptut range of an operator with a hard clipper , iow you will never get a pure sine doing 4 -8 pi radians of mod index .
Will try to dig up the thread where I showcased it ( must be a couple of year old )
This is how fm4 looks like ( the green waveform , right ) when using a clipper at the output of an FM modulator into carrier
Here I reproduced it in pure data .
Blue waveform = normal .
Green , operator clipping
