Dmitry Sukhinen of Defect Designer

Overview

We play technical death metal or so the press describes it. Well, actually whatever we play, it's a kind of heavy metal and quite complicated. We have 2 guitars, bass, drums and vocals and there is no leading instrument. In almost every song you may take away right guitar, left guitar or listen to both, and you'll have three different songs. Same is applicable to bass - if you get rid of it, the music will change too. So there is no leading "rhythm" instrument - leaders change and the apprehension of music depends on a listener. That's why it's a real challenge to fit for a musician, the project is quite experimental. You have to be really accurate and neat if you play in Defect Designer.

In 2009 we released debut "Wax" CD worldwide and life became faster.

We'd been searching for a proper solution for us to fit us during our live gigs - a solution that'd keep us all synchronized. Our guitar player sent me the link to Peterson Tuners and I saw the BodyBeat Sync, it was the thing that I believed was not yet invented. Very, very convenient and carrying all functions we needed. Pulsation and synchronization. We play with the BodyBeat Sync when we practice alone and together, we use it on our gigs. BodyBeat Sync gave us a new level of freedom in our metal insanity - because rhythm matters.

We have one unit set to "master" wthat launches the tempo track and the other units are "syncs" that are wirelessly connected to the master and have same pulsation and same song structure with all tempo changes. The solution by Peterson tuners is perfect for us!
