Nord Modular G2 Editor

V1.62
*If the 1.6 Editor was exited and then restarted, it would not be able to find the G2 unless the synth was restarted, or the USB cable was re-connected. The update to 1.62 fixes this issue.

v1.60
* Support for Windows Vista and the new USB driver.
* Native support for the Intel processors on the Macintosh platform.

Patch Adjuster and Patch Mutator :

From this version the Nord Modular G2 Editor provides two new tools for patch modification, the Patch Adjuster for quick patch changes on a global level, and the Patch Mutator for extensive sonic exploration based on interactive evolution.
Together these tools greatly simplify the sound design process, and allow you to get interesting results even without knowledge of the inner workings of a specific patch.

Color Scheme :

Users with red-green-difficulties have expressed problems to differentiate between pressed and non-pressed buttons. To solve this we have implemented a Color Scheme setting found in the Options dialog.

The patch window automatically scrolls when dragging a cable outside the window. Also the zone inside the window that triggers scrolling while dragging cables or moving modules has been enlarged.

A new hot key 'z' will play the last played key on the Virtual Keyboard.

bugs fixed

New features since version 1.24:

The Pitch Stick hole in the Device module reacts faster.

Position and state of Performance- and Parameter Overview floaters are remembered.

Evaluation Order calculation is essentially faster.

Higher LCD update rate.

MIDI CC# 80 on Global Channel sets internal clock state.

Changing performance or performance mode now only uploads the active patches.

Receiving new Performance data now opens the patch windows of the active slots even if it isn't the focused synth.

Global Pages enabled status now saves with performances.

Improved USB communication.

Enhanced contrast on buttons active color in the Editor.

Bugs fixed since version 1.24:

Changing a parameter in a non active slot from the Editor didn't change it in the synth.

Note sequencers octave offset goes to C9 now.

Modules from the Random category with unconnected Seed input now get different seeds.

LFO pitch control was bad when synced to MIDI.

Sending a signal from the physical inputs to the outputs used to invert it.

Took away momentary buttons on switches from replacement.

Binary counter now starts at 0 (no output active).

Starting a G2 set to external clocking stopped at Welcome.

There was a problem having 127 modules in a patch (126 were ok).

Fixed a problem when receiving MIDI Program Change while recording with a note sequencer.

Synth won't take focus after receiving clock information.

Synth won't leave global pages mode if changing clock info.

Replace of compressor no longer swap outputs.

Variation Active output on Status module is only trigged by changing the variation of the patch the module is in now.

Overdrive graph symmetry was reversed.

Knob and Overview floaters will display the module name again if the parameter is from another module but the same name.

Evaluation order is more reliable now. A few modules became slightly more expensive for this, namely FltHP, FltLP, Sw2-1M and S&H.
