Al Jourgensen's Studio Equipment

Al Jourgensen frequently uses the Eventide H3000 Ultra Harmonizer Effects Processor both in live performances and on numerous tracks, as discussed on Gearslutz.

“For over twenty years, I've been using Eventide exclusively for my effects processing. It's a producer's dream. I never leave home without them.” - also, below that, the "H8000FW" was mentioned as a product he uses.

Al Jourgensen purchased a Publison Infernal Machine IM-90 in 1985 or 1986, I believe. This was definitely used for a number of vocal effects until they started using the Eventide H3000 harmonizers.

"Actually, my first ‘sampler’ was a Sony Nagra portable recorder. I would walk around sampling noises and edit them on tape later, or I would dump them on a disc and place them back on an Akai 3000. As far as why I sampled? I was fascinated with the cut up literary methods of William Burroughs and Brion Gysin and the way you could change the narrative of a story or in my case a song through manipulation thereby changing the entire atmosphere of a pretty rudimentary riff or storyline."

The studio also recently acquired an SSL 4040G console, which has been commissioned in Studio A. Purchased through Primal Gear in Nashville, the console’s former owner is Ministry frontman Al Jourgensen.

At 3:50 Paul Barker, Al's righthand man back in the day details how the band used Akai S900 samplers in addition to the Fairlight CMI to write and record material for TLORAH. I'm putting this under both Al and Paul as they both presumably used the equipment together back in the day.
