From the twisted minds at Third Man Hardware and the mad scientists at Eventide, comes Knife Drop-a pedal so maniacal, so drenched in sonic chaos, you'll wonder if you're dreaming...or already trapped in a nightmare.
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 +6db 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.
Descend Into Sonic Chaos
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 Eventides 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.
Nightmarish, Gritty and Haunting
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.
Where it's Aye! for an Eye!
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.
Filter Envelope Attack Time
Adjust the attack from 0 to 1000 ms, allowing for instantaneous or gradual filter onset. At 0 ms, manually sweep the cutoff for custom tonal shaping.
Output Level
Precise volume control ranging from -12 to +9 dB. Set to 0 dB at noon for the optimal performance.
Filter Resonance
Fine-tune filter depth for unique, attention-grabbing tones.
Cutoff Frequency
Choose where your envelope sweep begins, offering precise tonal control.
Secondary LED Button
Press and hold to access additional parameters for deeper sonic customization.
Switchable Octave Functionality
Activate the upper and sub octaves with the Octaves LED Button. Or disengage them entirely with the secondary octaves footswitch.
Compatible with H90 Control
Perform software updates, access system settings and create/save presets in real-time.

Protect your investment with the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty
A warranty can be a very important factor when making a buying decision. Because repairs can be very expensive in terms of parts and labour costs, manufacturers usually only provide one year limited warranties that generally only cover items that malfunction due to a manufacturer’s defect. With an important purchase such as a musical
instrument or piece of studio gear, however, many people want to have the peace of mind in knowing that their investment will be protected should the product no longer be performing at 100%.
Because of this, Long & McQuade provides our customers with a FREE one-year Performance Warranty on most of our products. The Long & McQuade Performance Warranty supplements the manufacturer’s warranty to ensure that our customers receive complete “no hassle” warranty coverage within their first year.
How does the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty differ from most manufacturers' warranties?
- Performance Guarantee: Normal wear and tear is covered, so your product will be performing as well as the day you purchased it for the entire duration of the coverage. Band and Orchestral Performance Warranty does not include replacing pads or cleaning for woodwind instruments, unless deemed necessary by our repair staff. Ultrasonic cleaning for brass instruments will be provided if deemed necessary by our repair staff, but is not routinely offered under the Performance Warranty.
- Product Replacement: If your product cannot be fixed or costs too much to fix, we will replace it with the equivalent model for no additional charge. If this is not possible, a full refund will be provided.
- No Lemon Policy: Your product will be replaced should the same problem occur multiple times.
- Convenient: Easy drop off and pick up of the product at any Long & McQuade location.
- Guitar Setup: Guitars purchased at Long & McQuade come with 1 free setup, to be redeemed within 1 year for new guitars and 90 days for used guitars.
- Loaners Available: A loaner product may be given while the product is being repaired.
- Power Surge Protection: Your product is covered even if damaged from a power surge.
- Accessory Coverage: Any peripheral devices or accessories that come with your product (i.e. foot pedal, case) are also covered.
- Commercial Use Coverage: Music and recording professionals who purchase gear for “heavy-use” commercial purposes will still be covered.
Long & McQuade reserves the right to restrict the purchase of additional years of Performance Warranty. Used products come with a 3-month Long & McQuade Performance Warranty. Some products (i.e. computers, software, cymbals and other items) are covered only by the manufacturer‘s warranty. Consumables (i.e. strings, reeds, drum sticks, batteries, tubes, cross faders) are excluded as they are designed to be replaced. Cosmetic Damage, Accidental Damage, or problems caused by Humidity or Temperature Issues are not covered. Speakers damaged by overpowering are generally not covered. Our coverage does not provide compensation for loss of use. As of June 2018 the Performance Warranty is no longer transferable. The warranty is only valid in Canada.
Purchasing additional years of coverage
Some manufacturers provide warranties for longer than 1 year; however, these are usually limited warranties that do not provide the same coverage as the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty. Customers interested in more complete and convenient (but not necessarily longer) coverage are still able to purchase additional years of the Performance Warranty.
If you are interested in receiving this coverage for longer than one year, you have the option of purchasing additional years of the Performance Warranty. The pricing is as follows:
- NEW products: Starting at 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. Starting at 4% for each additional year.
- USED products: Starting at 4% of the current new selling price to increase the warranty from 3 months to 1 year. Starting at 4% for each additional year.
- GUITARS: 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. 4% for each additional year. $45 maximum. An additional free setup is not included with additional purchased years of Performance Warranty.
- BAND and ORCHESTRAL instruments: 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. 4% for each additional year.
