Eventide Knife Drop: Unleash Sonic Mayhem
A Collaboration of Legends
Born from the innovative minds at Eventide and Third Man Hardware, the Knife Drop pedal is a formidable fusion of sub-octave fuzz and analog synth terror. Crafted with direct input from Jack White, this pedal embodies a raw, unrestrained sound that pushes the boundaries of traditional effects.
Key Features
1. Sub-Octave Fuzz with Analog Synth Integration
Experience a unique blend of aggressive distortion and monophonic analog-style synth tones, enhanced by footswitch-activated octaves. This combination delivers a sound that’s both gritty and haunting, perfect for creating walls of fuzz reminiscent of a cursed VHS tape.
2. Dynamic Filter Envelope Control
An ADSR-style envelope modulates the cutoff frequency of a resonant lowpass filter, with adjustable attack times ranging from 0 to 1000 ms. This allows for both instantaneous and gradual filter sweeps, enabling custom tonal shaping to suit your creative needs.
3. Pre/Post Distortion Filter Positioning
Toggle the filter placement to pre- or post-distortion, unlocking a spectrum of sonic textures from menacing growls to searing leads. This flexibility lets you sculpt your sound with precision, whether you’re aiming for subtle modulation or full-on sonic chaos.
4. Exclusive Presets by Jack White
Dive into presets meticulously crafted by Jack White, each infused with an additional +6dB of gain. Store your own creations alongside his, and navigate through them effortlessly using the intuitive LED ladder interface.

Featuring stereo inputs and outputs, the Knife Drop is adaptable to both mono and stereo setups. The expression pedal input and MIDI compatibility offer dynamic real-time control, making it a versatile addition to any rig.
