The '''sonic modulator''' was a [[human]]-built sonic device. It could cause physical pain and injury by emitting powerful sonic waves. [[Toshiko Sato]], an employee of the [[Lodmoor Research Facility]], stole plans for the device at the order of a mysterious woman named [[Milton (Fragments)|Milton]]. She offered a working device from the plans in exchange for the life of her kidnapped mother. [[Jack Harkness]] said the plans wouldn't have actually worked, but with her technical genius, Tosh altered the design so that it ''did ''work. Before her capture by [[UNIT]], Milton reneged on the deal, testing the modulator on Tosh's mother.
