This blue output provides you with the release velocity signal from the keys that you play on the Nord
Modular G2, or any release velocity that is received via MIDI. The release velocity response of the Nord
Modular G2 keyboard is linear. Signal:

This module provides three different con-
trol signals. The signals are generated
from the last/lowest/highest note (de-
pending on the alternative below) played
and affect all allocated voices, in contrast to the Keyboard module described above.

Select which notes should be output. ‘Last’ will output the data from the latest key played. ‘Lo’ will out-
put data from the lowest key played and ‘Hi’ from the highest key played.
Tips! The Lo and Hi alternatives are perfect for creating a polyphonic Patch with a separate sound for the
bass (Lo) or lead (Hi) lines. Patch the Pitch and Gate outputs (see below) to the bass/lead sound oscilla-
tor(s) Pitch input and the Envelope Gate input. Disable the Oscillator KBT and Envelope KB functions.

This blue output provides you with a complete pitch (note any pitch bend and/or glide) signal
from the last/lowest/highest note (depending on the alternative above) played on the keyboard, or re-
ceived at the
MIDI I
N
port.
E4 (MIDI note 64), which is the middle E on the Nord Modular G2 keyboard when the
O
CT
SHIFT
selector is in the center position, represents a signal level of 0 units. MIDI note 0 (C-1) represents -64
units and MIDI note 127 (G9) repr63 units.
Signal:

This yellow output sends a high (+64 units) logic signal every time a key is pressed on the keyboard or a
MIDI note-on is received at the
MIDI I
N
port. The logic signal switches back to zero (0 units) when the
last key is released. You can use this signal to start envelopes in the single-trigger fashion. If a sustain pedal
is activated, the logic signal will be high for as long as the pedal is pressed. Signal:

this output. Signal:

The Device module represents a number
of physical controls on the synth and
routes their respective control signals for
use in the Patch.
