The NIN wiki says that this is the same drum machine as used on "Fur-Lined" from Trent Reznor's side-project "How To Destroy Angels" (i.e. the Sequential Circuits DrumTraks), but I have to disagree with that. The two drum patterns certainly share the same vibe, but I believe these are entirely different sounds. I couldn't find out any details, so I just used Addictive Drums 2 to create the sound example.
I actually saw Nine Inch Nails perform this song live about 15 years ago. I vividly remember the stage looking like someone opened up a portal to hell... Good times.
