Read all of this leaflet carefully before you start using these effects pedals because it contains important information for you. If you have any further questions, ask your doctor or pharmacist. These effects pedals have been prescribed for you only. Do not pass them on to others — it may harm them, even if their signs of illness are the same as yours.

1. What DEATH DRIVE is, and what it’s used for

The DEATH DRIVE is an original, all-analogue overdrive and distortion pedal for the treatment of Bland Guitar Syndrome and Excessive Aural Dryness. When used regularly, it can provide effective relief from these and other music- and instrumentation-related conditions.

All Intensive Care Audio pedals are built in London, England, using high-quality components and featuring soft-touch, relay-based true bypass.

DEATH DRIVE features 4 controls, offering a range of available remedies:

  • EGO – Controls the overall volume of the effect. The DEATH DRIVE is a high-output device, suitable for pushing tube amplifiers further into breakup.

  • DESTRUCTION – Ranging from subtle to extreme, this control dictates the severity of the distortion. At lower settings, it provides natural, tube-like distortion full of vintage character. At higher settings, the distortion becomes pleasantly compressed and saturated while still retaining clarity and individual note definition.

  • DRIVE – Operates as a secondary gain control. Used in conjunction with the DESTRUCTION control, it allows you to fine-tune the exact saturation of your signal. The two gain controls are interactive and provide a wide range of tonal remedies.

  • MOOD – Controls the pre-gain tone shaping of the distortion. It has been deliberately voiced to provide useful tone shaping throughout the entire range of the control — there are no useless settings at either extreme.

2. What you need to know before using the DEATH DRIVE

Do not use if:

  • You are allergic to unorthodox sounds

  • You have high levels of normality in your blood

  • You have the habit of accidentally plugging in the wrong power supply
    (Use only high-quality 9V centre-negative power supplies)

  • You play with aggressive or temperamental drummers

3. How to take the DEATH DRIVE

The dose needed to treat Guitar Effect Deficiency will depend on how low your levels are. Your doctor will advise you on the length of time to use DEATH DRIVE.
For adults, this is usually 1–2 hours, twice a day.

Using pedals after meals is recommended to avoid dizziness.

If you forget to use DEATH DRIVE, use it as soon as possible and continue as normal. DO NOT take a double dose to make up for a forgotten dose, as this can cause irreversible MIND BENDING (Mindbendinitis).

4. Possible Side Effects

Like all medicines, this one may cause side effects — although not everybody gets them.

Serious side effects include:

  • Involuntary time signature changes

  • Nausea and/or vomiting

  • Anxiety

  • Difficulty passing riffs

  • Thinking you're better at your instrument than you actually are

  • Looking down your nose at other people’s gear

Enclosure Dimensions
