To use the original Nord Modular Editor with OSX, you’ll need to grab a copy of Nord Modular G2 Demo over at the Electro-Music forum and have Wine installed on your Mac. You can either run directly in Wine or use the Winebottler feature to turn the .exe into a Mac app that sits in your dock. To connect it with your DAW, use the Soundflower app to route the audio in and set a virtual MIDI in/out in the AUDIO/MIDI settings.

NORD G2 DAW Integration

You’ve now got Autechre patches running from your MIDI arrangements in your DAW – absolutely insane. You can now reverse engineer the patches in the Nord G2 Editor or use the incredible Patch Mutator feature to create your own variations.

Nord G2 Variations

Grab the G2 Zips before they’re taken down and most definitely pick up a copy of AE_LIVE while you’re at it.
