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

Don’t worry about people stealing an idea. If it’s original, you will have to ram it down their throats.

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.

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.
