Intensive Care Audio Death Drive

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.

Controls

• 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.
• 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.
