afaik he's all ITB. Gear doesn't matter though, learn how to use what you have to the fullest and you will make good tracks.

its just a bassline made with saws, and distortion, and sounds like amplitude modulation and such
made with any powerful synth such as z3ta, massive, fm8, absynth etc.

Sighhhh before this thread ends up in a forum war I want to second this, sounds like a lottttt of distortion on it, try out some different distortion fx and see what works on your bass lines to give it more umphhh

The synth in Night Vision is probably the rawest use of filters and automation i've ever heard.
Anyone know how he makes it talk like some kind of mutated alien monster?

i think the filters are very similar to the band pass/reject in kontakt.
have a go with those types with a saw wave or smmink and you might get summink simlar

I dont mind revealing what I used for this. It was a synth which comes with Reaktor 4, called Carbon. I built the patch myself, so you want find it in the presets. The best advice I can give is experiment ,I just fuck about until I make something unique.
Peace

carbon's a sick one. you can get some dope sounds outta that beast of a synth. easy on the cpu too.
Carbon 2 is pretty sick as well - reaktor provides a lot of tools to really dig deep into your own creativity.
