Vena Cava Filter

Intensive Care Audio builds effects in London, England with a darkly humorous medical theme. Founded in 2020 by Patrick Smith, they specialize in bold, weird tones using high-quality components. The Vena Cava Filter joins their lineup of medically-themed effects alongside the Death Drive, Death Muff, Fideleater, Life Support, and Recovery Phase. Named after the major vein returning blood to the heart, it filters your signal in ways standard pedals do not. Soft touch relay-based true bypass construction maintains signal integrity when bypassed. London handmade with the same build quality as their other effects. Priced at £220, consistent with their premium positioning.
