I've seen some topics either here or psw rec forums covering
it. Can't remember where though. Pretty Hate Machine/Downward Spiral
were all di. In Fragile they miked up some stuff too. I think he likes
some Zoom boxes with speaker simulator, turbosynth, Way Huge Swollen Pickle,
Voodoo Labs fuzz?, propably putting his guitar through some modular synths too.. Also, I remember reading somewhere they used to play some guitars at 30ips and then playing it back on 15ips (and the other way around). I've seen pics him using
Les Pauls & Mesa Triple Rectifiers. I know he used Way Huge octidrive heavily
around Fragile era. Hope this helps for starters. Have a look in forums, try google.
Also, I think a lot of those guitar tones were created by drastic eq. Also it sounds to me like some of his riffs are a combination of same riff played with 2 tiny different accents/rhythms (ie more Jesus & Mary Chain-y stuff on Fragile). Sounds like most of them are tracked quite heavily too. Good luck!

Also I think he tunes down to C.
Could be wrong though.

I got good results using my Digitech 2101 and going out mono into the converters.

Pretty grungy!

direct out jcm800

also he did a trick where he'd record everything at 15 ips and track the guitars an octave higher at 30 ips

or in daw terms record the guitars an octave high twice as fast


*edit* oops I see annti covered that


zoom was a 9030, but I think he used that for vox
