Clavia Nord Modular (also known as the nördlich Modular G2 software environment) is a groundbreaking modular synthesis platform that brings the flexibility of hardware modular systems into a digital domain. Designed by Clavia, the creators of the iconic nördlich keyboards, this system allows musicians and sound designers to build their own custom instruments, effects, and synthesis architectures using a graphical patching interface.
Feature Highlights:
- Graphical Modular Environment – Drag-and-drop patch cables between oscillators, filters, LFOs, and effects.
- Hardware Integration – Works seamlessly with Nord Modular hardware units for real-time control.
- Huge Module Library – Includes oscillators, filters, envelopes, sequencers, mixers, and effects.
- Polyphonic Modular Patching – Build patches that support multiple voices simultaneously.
- Customizable Sound Design – Create anything from classic analog tones to experimental soundscapes.
What’s New 2025:
- Enhanced DSP engine for more complex patches.
- Expanded polyphony and performance capabilities.
- Improved user interface for faster patching.
- New module types, including granular, physical modeling, and advanced filters.
- Deeper integration with MIDI and external gear.
Quick Guide:
- Launch the Nord Modular Editor software on your computer.
- Choose modules (oscillators, filters, envelopes, effects) from the library.
- Connect them virtually with patch cables to build your synth.
- Upload the patch to the Nord Modular hardware for hands-on control.
- Save and recall patches for live performance or studio production.
System Requirements
- Windows or macOS (compatible versions depend on Nord Modular generation).
- Nord Modular or Nord Modular G2 hardware is required for full functionality.
- MIDI interface or USB connection.
- At least 512MB RAM (lightweight software).
- Audio interface for monitoring and recording.
Download Steps:
The Clavia Nord Modular Editor software can be downloaded from the official Nord Keyboards website (legacy section). The editor is free for Nord Modular and Nord Modular G2 users, allowing full access to modular patch design and hardware integration.
