This is the hard-wired connection between the LevScaler Note control input and the keyboard (and the
MIDI input). If KBT is activated the LevScaler will track the keyboard at the rate of one semitone for
each key. If KBT is not activated, the keyboard will not affect the LevScaler Note control.

Displays the two gain slopes and the break point graphically. The Y-axis represents the output level (log-
arithmic) and the X-axis the entire note range (C-1 to G9). the horizontal line represents the +64 units
(0 dB) output level.

The output value is the combined result of the note input and scaling values. a 0 dB value corresponds
to a +64 units output value, -8 dB attenuation corresponds to 0 units output value and a +8 dB amplifi-
cation value corresponds to +256 units output value.

The Nord Modular G2 oscillators produce sound constantly. If you connect an oscillator output to a mix
bus, it will generate a constant sound - just as you would expect. If you want the behaviour of a traditional
synthesizer, i.e. to generate sound only when you play on the keyboard, patch the output of the oscillator
to the audio signal input of an envelope generator. Then, patch the audio signal output of the envelope
generator to an Output module. Finally, trig/gate the envelope generator from the keyboard.

Oscillator A and B both have waveform selectors of radio button type. The wave-
forms of these oscillators are the “basic” subtractive square/pulse, sawtooth, trian-
gle and sine wave. All waveforms in Oscillator A and B are instantly available
which means that you can switch waveform without any interruption.
