01Overview

Infiltrator 2 is built around combining effects rather than using them one at a time. Its ten effect modules can be stacked, sequenced and modulated together, so a single chain can move from subtle filtering to aggressive FX movement. Each module has its own set of sub-types, and envelopes, a 32-step sequencer and a macro system tie the chain together. The plugin ships with a large preset library organized by genre and sound type.

Effects, Filters and Modulation

The effect library includes 54 modules. The filter selection covers digital and liquid analogue models as well as formant and comb filtering. The distortion section offers a module with 12 different models, and other modules cover pitch shifting, FM, delay, reverb and spectral transformation.

Each effect has two tempo-synced, multi-segment envelopes for modulating key parameters. Envelopes can generate random patterns and euclidean rhythms, with swing and pitch snapping available for shaping the curves.

Sequencing, Macros and Compression

The onboard 32-step sequencer switches the ten effect modules on and off, so effects can run separately or together at different speeds. Four macro controls can be assigned to any parameter, letting one control move several effects at once, and macros can also be automated from your DAW.

Infiltrator 2 includes a master compressor section and a compressor effect, each with four models. The Squash compressor adds a firm attack, the Maximizer uses lookahead to limit peaks, and a Multiband compressor is included for heavier processing.
