  • I actually do go to NIN shows for synth sounds......NIN wouldn't be NIN without something new and exciting. The Buchla is a very interesting modular synth and it makes very interesting noises. "The Beginning of the End" has an amazing ending, courtesy of the Buchla.

  • I wholeheartedly agree. Hello, NIN wouldn't have been born had a skinny dude from Mercer not gotten into synth sounds...they truly add something to the show and the sound that is unique to NIN.

  • @bradtheblade That`s Korg MS-20

  • Does anybody know what the name of that keyed instrument is at about 6:00?

  • God i fucking love that sound!

  • Alessandro.. Id go to a NIN show to come see the EAR synth.

  • Take a look, it's in a book, a Reading Rainbow!

  • great video. for alessandro or any other person that might want to chime in:

    why do you prefer using audio click instead of midi? is it because the midi timesync doesn't always work proper with all devices? i play in a live setting where more people use midiclick as time source for their rigs and while it works, it seems like some machines have problems with "keeping steady rhythm" - you can see that the tempo is not the same all tame and would keep changing value minimally, depending on device

  • @tbwannab Dalek modulator.

  • roger that.

  • @FeiryEllieNess ...sequences going on during songs, usually a-tonal most of the time was the ?daylight? modulator, which is a ring mod live wire makes

  • @FeiryEllieNess "It's driving me crazy, sorry"
