What is Sidequest Audio?

Botique Guitar Pedals made in Parma, Italy.

It’s been over a decade since I began my journey in audio production and recording.

My world has always revolved around metal, progressive music, instrumental virtuosity, and the endless pursuit of innovation and quality — the kind of quality that lives in things with an inherently special character.

These ten years in the audio world have been almost completely dominated by the rise of digital technology.

 Digital tools offer endless convenience and opportunity, but too often, I feel they come at the cost of originality, inspiration, and that breath of life that true art requires.

Sidequest Audio was born out of that frustration — out of the need to create small, analog, archaic machines with unapologetic personality.

 Tools that can bring back a sense of magic for those adventurers brave enough to wield them.
