Unfortunately you are correct. The Modular G2 has been discontinued. A
real shame. I have one and it is a very cool machine. There was a
thread on electro-music.com a while back where posters were talking
about the possibility of hacking the G2 to have non-AC coupled
outputs. It would be very cool if the G2 could be hacked to output DC
along with it's sound. Probably will never happen though. Clavia
seemed to be heading more towards the Organ-Piano-Standard Synth
market and further away from the modular scene. They have also shown a
penchant to not expand or update their older products very much either
(in fact they have just stopped developing for them cold - the first
Nord Modular and the G2 are prime examples). There are plenty of
people willing to pay for a software update to the G2 but Clavia has
shown no interest in do any.
They would be perfect people for this sort of project since they have
developed in the hardware/DSP/Modular Synth arena for many years.
