The '''Sonic modulator''' was a [[human]]-built sonic device. It was probably an attempt at reverse-engineering a device based on [[the Doctor]]'s [[sonic screwdriver]]. Indeed, a similar effect to that of the sonic modulator was also seen when the [[Tenth Doctor]] held his sonic screwdriver and a [[sonic pen]] towards each other.

More bulky than the sonic screwdriver, 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, and by order of a mysterious woman named [[Milton (Fragments)|Milton]], received a working device from the plans in exchange for the life of her kidnapped mother. However, as [[Jack Harkness]] stated, the plans wouldn't have actually worked, but with her technical genius, Tosh altered the design during her construction of it so that it ''would'' work. Before her capture by [[UNIT]], Milton reneged on the deal, testing the modulator on Tosh's mother.
