Yea, it is that laughable. It's also instant Psalm-69 Ministry.

I'd agree, if The Missing and Stigmata and Thieves were on that album. It's def one of the two best.

I should add - it is not a good effects unit. It does not do much well.

But it gets those sounds.

For perspective, SGE and ebow are all I have running for this album (any song linked in it)



You can get some nice stuff out of it...but they're temperamental (for digital) units.

First thing on *any* of them is open it up and swap the battery (regular ol' flat cell, thankfully nothing special) that's hiding in a daughter board if there's *any* oddities in the display. Conversely, one with mangled display is *probably* just in need of a battery - so if you can score it for $20 because of that, and roll the dice, instant free score. Battery is buried on a daughterboard (this is a VERY full 1U unit), but isn't terribly difficult.

Manual is still readily available - you WILL need it.

No modern niceties - no selectable order of effects, etc. Fairly deep programming otherwise for sounds, and has pretty decent headroom for what it is.

For the bass lines the Depth Charge covers most of it. Trent used it on bass in the Fragile I believe (according to Justin Meldal Johnsen he loves it and yes I asked him).

Other things

Metasonix for sure. I've owned three they are NIN in a box. Geiger Counter is a huge one.

Just look at Trents gear and then be baffled. The guy owns everything.

On top of a Diezel VH4, no less. Interesting.

Diezels are another favorite of his. He's mentioned before that he'll often take the direct/processed sounds and reamp them through the Diezel.

I haven't ever played on but looking at it, it seems like you could get a lot of different towns from the diezel.

That's just studio gear though. He does spend hours upon hours editing. In the end, I don't think you can truly achieve a NIN sound. He makes it pretty fucking hard. I love how creative he is. Fuck the haters.
