NORD MODULAR G2 V1.4x 5. The Editor application: Modulation
Page 79
The figure shows an A4 note being
pitch modulated by a symmetric
bipolar signal.
FM Lin modulation will sweep the
frequency by a fixed number of
Hertz, on either side of the basic
pitch, in the example by 300 Hz. If
another note is played the sweep will
still be 300 Hz, but to our ears the
sweep will be larger for lower notes
and smaller for higher notes. The new
note will most probably sound inharmonic and severely out of tune. Still, FM Lin can be a powerful
synthesis technique when the relation between the modulated pitch and the signal modulating the pitch
are under tight control.

YNC
A waveform of an oscillator with a
Sync input can be synchronized with
a signal of another oscillator. A Sync
modulation input is in a way very
similar to a yellow Trigger or Rst
input. Oscillator synchronization
forces an oscillator module to restart
its waveform at the pitch of the audio
signal connected to the Sync input.
Each time the modulating audio
signal at the Sync input goes from a
value of zero or below to any value
greater than zero, the oscillator
waveform will restart at either its own
zero crossing point or at a flank in the
waveform. The result is that the
synced oscillator will inherit the pitch of the audio signal connected to the Sync input, which results in a
complex waveform that depends both on the oscillator pitch setting and on the modulator pitch. When
sync is used, the oscillator pitch is locked to the modulator pitch. If you change the modulator pitch, you
will affect the overall pitch, and if you change the oscillator pitch, this will create changes in timbre rather
than in pitch.
If you let the synchronized oscillator pitch vary continuously, from an LFO or other modulator, you will
change the timbre of the wave in a very interesting and characteristic way.

MODULATION
For most modules the maximum amount of modulation that a mod-input will accept is +/–64 units from
the initial setting of the parameter. There are some exceptions, like the Filter Pitch modulation inputs
which will actually accept +/–128 units of modulation. The FM Lin, FM Trk and Phase Mod inputs
accept all values within the signal headroom of the G2 system. And there are modules that modulate
between two ‘limit’ values, like the Pan mixer where ‘left’ and ‘right’ are the Panner limits. In this last case
modulation can not exceed the two limits.
The final modulation depth on a module is the sum of all modulation signals appearing at the modulation
inputs, taking all mod-input attenuation knobs in account before the sum is calculated.
