NORD MODULAR G2 V1.4x 1. Introduction: G2 Basics
Page 19
The Nord Modular G2 has 1024 memory locations for Performances (8 Banks with 128 memory
locations each). Since a Performance can be quite large (around 15-20 kB), it’s not likely that you will be
able to use all Performance memory locations. The Banks should therefore be considered more like
“folders” to store different projects. A Performance-file stores information about which Slots should be
active, layered and also any Keyboard Split settings plus a number of other settings.
F
OCUS
An often used expression in this manual is “focus”. For example, you can put a Slot, a Patch Variation
or a sound parameter in a Patch “in focus”. This simply means that the focused object is currently
selected and enabled for editing. The focused object will be the only object affected by the editing.

ODULES
Modules are the basic building blocks used to build up a sound. A Module in the Nord Modular G2 can
be, for example, an oscillator to control pitch, an envelope generator to control the volume dynamics, a
filter to control the timbre, a step sequencer to play patterns, etc. There are currently over 160 different
types of modules available in the G2 system. The G2 is not limited to use only one module of a specific
type in a Patch. Several identical modules can be used together, creating, for example, really fat multi-
oscillator sounds. You can add modules until all computational resources are in use. Adding an expansion
board to your system will double the computational resources and allows four more voices in Patches.
The G2X model is factory fitted with an expansion board as standard, giving you the maximum power
right out of the box.
Note! To create a totally new Patch, with your own setup of modules and signal routing between the
modules, you can use the Windows PC or Mac OSX version Editor application that is on the CD in the
back of this manual.
P
ARAMETERS
There are usually one or more sound parameters in each module, e.g. the parameter that sets the basic
pitch of a sound or the tempo of a modulation pattern. A parameter can be controlled by a knob, a slider,
a pushbutton or a selector switch with ‘radiobuttons’. In fact, you can think of a parameter as a ‘knob to
tweak’. You change the setting of a parameter either with an A

combinations which can be linked to the
parameters of the modules used in a Patch. This will turn the ‘virtual control’ on a module into a ‘real
world’ knob or pushbutton on the frontpanel. The A
