FM Synthesis. A Catalogue of Materials on Digitone

I found these interesting videos describing how to synthesize various sounds of raw materials (wood, metal, etc). In particular, I’m not sure how to apply the ratios in a Digitone context.

I assume it would require using the CXRatio, but not sure what parameter the second number would refer to? From the metal video description:

Ratios, how to:
If you are using VOPM, FB01, DX100, CX5 use the CXRatio column. Example:
The first number in the CX ratio is the “Mul” or ratio multiplier (0.5 to 15) and the second number is the “DT2” in VOPM or “IF” on the FB01, CX5 etc. (Should be between 0-3). The Detune is more of a standard fine detune you find on any synth’s oscillator and is for adding chorusing, beating frequencies etc. On the CX5, VOPM etc it is between 0-7
