Eventide Knife Drop Fuzz Octave Pedal

From the twisted minds at Third Man Hardware and the mad scientists at Eventide, comes the Eventide Knife Drop — a pedal so maniacal, so drenched in sonic chaos, you’ll wonder if you’re dreaming... or already trapped in a nightmare. This is no ordinary fuzz pedal. Born from the darkest depths of analog synthesis and raised on a diet of pure voltage, Knife Drop unleashes earth-shaking sub-octave fuzz and sinister analog synth tones.

It’s the same bone-rattling distortion that has haunted Jack White's legendary sound, now evolved into something even more terrifying. Want to dabble in the dark arts? Summon the filter before your distortion glows green with sonic menace, or bathe it in the blood-red glow of post-distortion mayhem. Exclusive presets handcrafted with Jack White pulse with +6 db of additional gain, each one more terrifying than the last. Store your own creations alongside his, then unleash them at will through an LED ladder to guide you through the darkest of nights. Knives in a blender! An aggressive distortion crushes the three-way blend of input signal, monophonic analog-style synth and footswitch-enabled octaves. An ADSR-style envelope sweeps the cutoff frequency of a resonant lowpass filter with adjustable Attack, Resonance and Cutoff. Swap the filter position pre- or post-distortion to explore radically altered textures.

Not for the faint of heart, this pedal is for those who want to conjure walls of fuzz that sound like they're crawling out from the depths of a cursed VHS tape. Combining Jack White's unholy fascination with subversive tones and Eventide’s cutting-edge sonic sorcery, Knife Drop is the soundtrack to your own personal horror film. Plug in, turn up, and cut loose the beast within. Through its stereo outputs, this beast spreads its tendrils across your entire mix, while the switchable guitar/line inputs ensure no signal is safe from its grasp. Express your darkest musical urges through the expression pedal output, commanding multiple knobs like a cosmic conductor of chaos.

FEATURES:

• Synth mix: blend your guitar signal with a monophonic synth - adjust the dial clockwise for synth tones, or counterclockwise for filtered fuzz
