on traditional monophonic synthesizers from the past. If a patch is played polyphonic it can use up to
thirtytwo voices, depending on the complexity of the sound.
P
ATCHES
made on the G2 can be stored in the internal memory banks of the synth and/or saved on the
computer as a Patch-file. Patch-files can be exchanged with other G2 owners, e.g. by storing them on a
floppy disk or sending them over the Internet through email. Patch-files have the file-extension *.

Even though you have to use the Editor to create your own Patches, it is possible to use the Editor
program to only transfer Patches from the computer to the synth, then disconnect the synth from the
computer and use the synth as a stand-alone synthesizer on stage. This solution makes the Nord Modular
G2 system extremely flexible and portable.
Additionally, sounds can be dumped over
MIDI
by the push of a button from the G2 panel of the G2
Keyboard and G2X models or from the G2 Editor software. Such a dump can be stored into a
MIDI
-file
using common
MIDI
sequencer programs. Meaning that sounds contained in
MIDI
-files can be uploaded
from a
MIDI
sequencer program, even without using the G2 Editor program. It is common practice in
recording studios to store sounds this way in the ‘song’, ‘arrangement’ or ‘project’ file of a
MIDI
sequencer
program, to always guarantee the correct sounds for the song.
The Nord Modular G2 has 4096 memory locations to store Patches (32 Banks with128 memory locations
each). The size of a Patch in memory depends on the complexity of the Patch, very complex Patches use
more memory, decreasing the total amount of patches you can store in the G2 Patch Banks. The Banks
should therefore be considered more like the “folders” you find on a computer.
V
ARIATIONS
Each P
ATCH
can contain up to 8 different complete parameter setups which are named V
ARIATIONS
.
A Nord Modular G2 V
ARIATION
is a complete setup of module knob and push button settings plus all
patch settings like Arpeggiator On/Off, etc. In other words, it’s possible to have up to eight completely
different “sounds” as V
ARIATIONS
in each Patch. V
ARIATIONS
can instantly be selected by pressing one
of the V
ARIATION
buttons. If you compare a P
ATCH
in the Nord Modular G2 with a traditional hard-
wired synth, a G2 V
ARIATION
is like a ’Sound’, ‘Program’ or ‘Preset’ in that synth, ready to be instantly
recalled.
All V
ARIATIONS
in a Patch are automatically stored within a Patch or a Patch-file.
S
LOTS
A Patch loads into a S
LOT
, which is the physical location from where a Patch can be played. A Slot has
its own
MIDI
channel and can have its own keyboard split range and keyboard transposition. A S
LOT
can
be considered an individual instrument for playing and editing. You activate a S
LOT
by pressing one of the
S
LOT
buttons on the Nord Modular G2 front panel.
There are four S
LOTS
labelled A, B, C and D on the Nord Modular G2. Any combination of these four
S
LOTS
can be active at the same time. As you can load a different Patch in each S
LOT
you can play up
to four Patches at the same time, by stacking them and/or using keyboard splits.
The
LED
below the S
LOT
button indicates that the Patch in the S
LOT
is actually loaded and active, and
that it is using computational resources. If the Slot is inactive (
LED
is dimmed) there is actually still a Patch
in the Slot, but the Patch is deactivated and is not using any computational resources.
The
LED
above the S
LOT
button will be lit to indicate that the S
LOT
is ready for playing by the keyboard.
If a S
LOT
is active but the S
LOT
is not connected to the keyboard (only the lower
LED
lights up) the
S
LOT
can still be played by incoming
MIDI
signals in the
MIDI
channel the S
LOT
is assigned to. The M
