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 FIDELEATER is, and what it’s used for

The FIDELEATER is a lo-fi chorus/vibrato/delay pedal used 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. There are two soft-touch footswitches: the left is BYPASS, and the right is TAP TEMPO.

FIDELEATER features 6 controls, offering a wide range of available remedies:

  • WAVE FUNCTION – An 8-position rotary switch lets you select one of 8 available LFO waveforms:
    Random Slopes, Random Steps, Steps, Sine, Step Up/Slope Down, Square, Ramp Down, Ramp Up

  • DEPTH – Sets the depth of the LFO. In certain settings, placing the control above 12 o’clock can cause serious glitching — this is normal, and you should continue with the course of treatment.

  • FREQ – Sets the frequency (speed) of the LFO. The speed and waveform are indicated by the LED beneath the FREQ control.

  • DRY/WET – Sets the amount of dry signal mixed in.

    • Fully counter-clockwise = chorus

    • As you turn clockwise, the dry signal is gradually removed, leaving only the modulated signal — producing a vibrato effect.

  • CONTRACT – Opens or closes a feedback path within the delay circuit. When open, the repeats create a luscious warbling texture.

  • UNTIE – Extends the delay time, shifting the pedal’s behaviour from chorus into more delay-like territory. This intensifies modulation and unlocks a world of glitchy digital weirdness.

2. What you need to know before using the FIDELEATER

Do not use if:

  • You are allergic to unorthodox sounds

  • You have high levels of normality in your blood

  • You have a 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 FIDELEATER

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 FIDELEATER.
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 FIDELEATER, 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

  • Length: 126 mm / 5.0 in

  • Width: 88 mm / 3.5 in

  • Height: 45 mm to 27 mm / 1.8 in to 1.1 in

  • Weight: 362g
