Hans Zimmer and The Dark Knight

via John
"Here's a cool shot of Hans Zimmer's setup shown during a featurette on the Dark Knight DVD about how Zimmer designed the unique theme for the Joker. It's about a 6 minute segment, just about this. He does play it and also discusses how they brought in guitar, cello and pianos being played in unconventional ways (eg. with razor blades) then processed them together to get what he calls 'the sound of anarchy'. It actually made me want to buy the soundtrack which I almost never do." Moog modular and more. Note the modular wall behind the Moog. I believe he has some Roland System 500 and 100m in there.

"Just yer basic "turn on a RM1X factory patch and solo over the top". The performance and composition may be nothing to get excited about but I was really enjoying the sound qualiity of the modular synthesizer and I hope you will too! Featured are the wonderful sounds of MOTM-300 sine waves passed through MOTM-440 and MOTM-485 filters. For more information on MOTM synthesizers go to www.synthtech.com/

Thanks for listening!"
