I'm not sure how one would start defining a "universal modulator". Maybe you could approach this in sections - create an FM block, and AM block, etc, and then bolt them all together in a selectable manner.

Can you describe how you would create a "universal modulator" in discrete hardware? That might give a better understanding of how to approach the design.

Or perhaps you could start defining the system by the inputs and outputs - for example you might want to take an audio signal input and get a 16 QAM output.
