[@PetraKann]

Apart from my recording set-up, PC and microphones all my musical gear dates back to 1989 or older. Even my Theremin uses vacuum tubes. This is the first video I have watched on your channel, and the device you are reviewing is from outer space as far as I am concerned. I wouldnt know where to start.

[@MarcoPolux]

very tempting! already have the Cubase FX Modulator and Cableguys´ ShaperBox3... but this sequencer Infiltrator 2 has, darn! looks very.

[@kpsiegel]

I own Infiltrator 2 and it is a killer on drum sequences. I paired it up with Beat Scholar inside a Unify stack that I saved and it just is WAY too much fun and useful. Great value. Glad to see you are an advocate for this.

[@CincinnatiBeats]

I left a question but as far as infiltrator 2 I honestly prefer shaper box over this. It's probably simply the workflow for me.

[@gabyj71]

I have ShaperBox 3 but you convinced me to get this one too, why not. Thank you for the coupon and your awesome VT Arcturus sound pack. Time to Jam! 🎛

[@ricktheexplorer]

I've never seen a sound designer like you. I know, they are out there, or else my music would suck, but it is amazing to watch you work this gig; a super dream job. I got the free download of these sounds, and I thank you for them.

[@GeorgeL909]

That drone at 2:00 was straight out of Quake. Very good! If you sent that to me and said "hey George, Trent Reznor totally made this," first I'd believe you then I'd be like "Wait do you know him? Is he there with you? Ask him he wants to hear some of my music. Tell him I love him! No wait don't tell him that, that's weird, arrrgh I'm such a dork, just play it cool man!" Or something along those lines.

[@ChristianIce]

Pack is glorious! Thank you.

If every human being would have your creativity, talent and work ethic.. not to forget the way you respect the community, Buckaroonies gang! 🙌🏆

D & G Sound D & G !!! drain gaaang !! drain gang for life!!@!]11😂

[@JonEthin]

Been absolutely enjoying the content and also applying it to my productions, process, etc. Hearing that you are inspired to create some dark techno sounds amazing. I could only imagine what Venus Theory techno would sound like. Thank you for what you do and being an amazing creator and human being. Happy holidays and Cheers to music creation!

[@mistapeper1283]

this thing is an instant IDM music machine

[@roxone7619]

I'd love to spend hours in your studio. Thank you for sharing your contagious passion once again !

[@yannikmarcus9788]

wow! that cave thing was amazing and now this, thank you!

[@solarnewborn]

Looks like Cameron became a bit of an adrenaline junkie 😂 ❤

[@yhuan4386]

I got infiltrator 2 and I think its absolutely amazing! My favorite feature is using MIDI to trigger fx in the timeline like tapestops, bitcrush, and phasers kind of like glitch 2 but you can get crazier

[@davidsanfeliumarco9664]

Nothing better than the smell of a fresh samplepack to start the day 😊 thank u so much!!!!!

[@dirg3music]

Infiltrator 2 has quickly become one of my favorite multi-fx plugins of all time. Shit is insanely versatile on an unparalleled level imo

[@cymbolic_space1832]

saving up my sheckles

[@middaymeds]

Every day that passes you stray closer to eurorack, godspeed Cameron

[@radsy5821]

Very cool. I know it's dumb and tribal but I get an unreasonable pleasure seeing you using Reaper. I'm not proud if it, but... one of us one of us

[@justingilbertsound]

Kinda curious how Reaper has been treating you since the switch, since I’m seeing it more in your videos. Are you enjoying it and how was the adjustment switching over to it?

[@pvax43]

Excellent. Great video, pack, and Inf2 is soon to be mine!!!

[@boomhousemusic9045]

Awesome review! Thanks for nice sharing! Have a great day!

[@TeddyBaas]

Thanks for the sounds V !

[@frankenfrank9553]

Thank you and devious machines for those presets!! The Pulsar 23 is awesome.

[@jennyheidewald5006]

Thank you! I've been wanting a different drumset then the 808 that came with Cakewalk, I'm excited to try this out. :) I hope you make some dark techno soon, I was curious what it was, and it sounds cool. You'd rock it.

[@kevinlong4657]

I'm also curious about how you feel about REAPER. I've been using REAPER for 13 years and have a lot of love for it, but I've been using Logic and Bitwig more lately because of UI/UX issues.

[@computrhead]

Now your body is the patch cables.

[@macronencer]

Infiltrator Squared (yes, I will call it that until they stop superscripting the 2) looks amazing!

[@TheGhostRecordsChannel]

Just when I said I missed your free packs you released a while back , you did another one right now lol thanks! ❤

[@dozicusmaximus]

Sweet! Thanks Cam!

[@bloodpuke4146]

Those samples are right up my alley. Can’t wait to see what dark techno you conjure up. 🤟🏽

[@stickster]

Can't wait to hear what you make with these sounds while I'm finishing my own.

[@tullamusic]

This sample pack is AMAZING. So much dirtiness to be found. Sounds like this beast would go great with a good FM synth. I can't wait to get my hands on a Blast Beats!

[@glenesis]

Loved the previous title lol ⚡ Love the video too. I hated that ART limiter (love the preamps). Very clever of you throwing it at a drum machine!

[@mikekloepfer7424]

Wow, these sound cool. I just started following your channel. I find your videos very inspiring. :)

[@donaldpriola1807]

As a Pulsar owner, I don't want you to accidentally mislead people, but the machine is not completely analog. The bass synth is a DCO. From the Pulsar manual: "The synthesis module has a hybrid architecture: a digitally controlled oscillator (DCO) followed by an analog processing chain containing a low-pass resonance filter (LPF) with saturation mode, a voltage-controlled amplifier (VCA) and an envelope generator.A DCO is built on unique authoring algorithms of pure mathematicalsynthesis making the sound and behavior of DCO close to analog." With all that said, I don't care, because the whole machine behaves analog for sure. It's a wonderful thing.

[@robysanto2761]

Thank you!!!

[@theauthor1000]

I love this guy !!!

[@semyonboyk0]

Hey Cameron! Not sure if you are still using Bitwig off-camera, but I'd love to see your take on optimizing Reaper for electronic music production. Anyway, great video, thank you for sharing!

[@ckoala16]

Tycho Friendship Server and ask Scott himself. He’s crafting a custom Reaper controller and has done his last few albums in it. At least Epoch and Weather.

[@floatinganarchychannel3204]

1 thing 4 sure that this machine is beautiful :]

[@CincinnatiBeats]

Hey brother. Big fan of your channel and I especially like your attitude in your videos man. I really enjoyed your recent video with field recordings in the cave and tunnels. That is really inspiring and I hope you do more field recording videos! Maybe without risking your health lol. I came to your channel to ask what may be a "stupid" question, but here it goes, with a bit of an explanation. I have been producing hip hop and like genres since about 2003, always in the box. I have been using FL since it was referred to as Fruity Loops (version 3 or 4). I do not own a synthesizer, but I find myself wanting to recently. Before I do so I wanted to get some practice in designing patches in software so that when I get a physical synthesizer I will know what i am doing. I have what i think is probably intermediate knowledge with designing patches, but I know that I could understand the process better. Here is the question: If you had to pick a specific soft synth to practice on before buying a physical synth, what would it be?

[@ktreier]

I think it’s wrong to call the record function of the Pulsar a sequencer. It’s really four banks of four completely independent loopers, one per voice that can have separate clock sources.

[@roryjineffect]

The Pulsar is just beautiful; you can lose hours playing with it. Just remember to sample it and chop up the fun bits for later. Interested to hear what dark techno stuff you conjure up.

[@yetiproduction6275]

Thanks for this great review!!!, I'm planning to buy this unit, I like your stands for the keys on the right and for the drum machine on the left, how can I find similar ones?

[@alegerminiasi7859]

Hi! May I ask you what stand you used around 3:20? Cheers :)

[@TruestQuest]

so basically the Arcturis can be used within any VST that can load its samples? or is it just for infiltrator?

[@orphanfrequencyyeah1742]

Thanks man, that Pulsar 23 is on the "dreams" list so getting some free samples is great. Saving up for a new PC, Infiltrator will be an interesting one to check out once I have it. (And sorry, no telegram for me anymore due to some bad experience with it a while ago.)

[@codexstudios]

Those telegram messages are from scam bots

[@Yolobruhhhh]

What reverb unit was that you used?

[@Ian-gw2vx]

I really need to get into my Pulsar as I have had it 18 months and no5t really scratched the surface. What I find is the Bass drum is not really doing it for me. I would have liked it deeper but it doesn't seem to have that much scope.

[@mark.Mel.george]

downloaded thank you for this

[@producer1762]

Hey I have a question that isnt releated to the video: As a sound designer that also composes music, I assume you split up the process, at least to some degree between sound design and composing. But my question is how you organise it? As example, do you work towards some specific goal and save all that in a separate folder maybe for a specific track or album. Or do you just have it all saved similarly and search for the right material more chaotically while composing/arranging? Im just curios as im finding my own workflow. Thanks for your vids and work :)

[@gabsauvage]

Ey, since you made the switch to Reaper, would be interesting to have infos about your workflow and how you set it up. Also : how often do you use your Iridium ? It sounds good but it feels like a machine that can be so easily replaced by plugins such as Pigments.

[@mimikova390]

I liked the sound of those drums. What did you think of the song I sent you on Twitter last week? Definitely not polished like your music but I had fun with some of your patches and my DFAM.

[@ZlinMusic]

Yes the Pulsar! Welcome to heaven! …or gnarly, distorted hell if you’re into that 😏

[@studio48nl]

Warning! This is a vst plugin commercial, not a Pulsar 23 demo!

[@_d_m]

There's an old windows-only VST that did FSU FFT mangling that I can't remember the name of. Heard shades of it in Infiltrator 2 just now. Sold.

[@ogami1972]

holy heck $2250?! Te salute, Don Venus.

[@Guitarist888]

Who manufactured of the hardware reverb box you have there 2:31?

[@VenusTheory]

Empress Reverb! One of the most beautiful sounding reverb pedals I've used - Ghostverb is worth the price alone.

[@Guitarist888]

@@VenusTheory thanks big guy! It looks and sounds amazing! I’m praying guitar center sells them. I’m gonna invest in one now! Thanks again! Keep up the great work! I totally dig (love) your creativity.

[@frank_mm]

What a voice !! 😲

[@sinmorera]

Where do we find the sample pack?

[@claudius3124]

Thanks a lot! ;-)

[@8083music]

So which thing is unreasonably cool? The Pulsar or Infiltrator?

[@dudearlo]

i might be checking out infiltrator :]

[@mistervalentin8396]

Great video as always, and you have that deep sexy voice that we all covet! But seriously, the Infiltrator plug-in you feature is truly stupendous and great, but given that you can totally mangle sounds behind their original sonic footprint, it's redundant to then borrow (or buy) the Pulsar-23 at it's relatively high cost .. just buy a used Alesis SR-16 or an old Boss drum machine if you want to enhance the cheapo sounds to something crazy cool.... I just think featuring the Pulsar-23 and then making the sounds unrecognisable defeats the purpose of this interesting and inspiring drum machine. Otherwise, a great video and demo of two unique tools for music creation and manipulation!

[@KnotLõ-ADSR]

What in the Milli Vanille is going on! Blink twice if you're ok???

[@stuartmccallum91]

If you had to just get one which would you buy between Shaperbox 3 and Infiltrator 2?? (If you are obligated to say one over the other because of some partnership then just shoot me a message with the honest answer)

[@horizontalblanking]

Came for the sounds, stayed for the “your body is meaty and juicy.”

[@midnightsocean2689]

You made one critical mistake. You gave the soma machine back lol. Soma devices are endless fuel for the inspired.

[@АринаБрендина]

where is the contest?

[@barrytune7098]

You know what would get me out of my comfort zone? Actually recording some music! I just tinkle with presets or create my own sounds and never do anything with them! Maybe you're right, I should kick that habit and do something constructive. Thank you for the inspiration and free samples.

[@szeredaiakos]

Yes and no - not totally a 1:1 port but it does most of the functions! Might pick one up at some point just to try it, but I got a TR8S a while back and really dig that!
