What happened to Adventure Audio?
Just noticed that Adventure Audio is no more. Never ended up getting any of their stuff but there were always a couple that I wanted to try out. Seemed like one of the more interesting builders out there.

Weird. Their last Instagram post is from 11 weeks ago.
Too much competition? Maybe everybody else's experience w/ 'em mirrors yours? I know mine sure does.

Based on IG story, just a series of unfortunate, unspecified events: https://imgur.com/a/7ESOio8
Outer Rings and Dream Reaper always seemed like cool pedals, but echoing the peeps above me, never pulled the trigger.

Re: What happened to Adventure Audio?
I had a Glacial Zenith for a couple of weeks and swapped it as partial payment towards my El Capistan. Seemed decent. Always sorry to see a company go.

Re: What happened to Adventure Audio?
yeah, sounded like a few poorly timed decisions with the way the world has been going with supply chain. I know they had released that mother tonguer filter that was pretty pricey...the only person I know who got one felt pretty burned by it...had a bunch of issues for his use cases (I think it was a volume or noise problem, can't remember specifically), but he was like I'll never order from them again and he did a pre-order on it.
Not sure if tied to that release, but they eventually started selling off some pedal making gear and decided to close up shop.
I too, had always wanted to check out there stuff, but never did. Could be a symptom of that? Playing in a crowded space where everyone seems to be going for the competition for one reason or another??? I tried some of their stuff at a pedal show and liked it, but again...never bought anything.

I had their Lunge octave chorus, and it was awesome. The Demogorgon was one I always wanted to check out too. Christian seemed like a super nice dude and I was sad to see them close up.

Re: What happened to Adventure Audio?
Doh! I always meant to snag something from them, O. R. most likely. I hope they find success post AA....

Re: What happened to Adventure Audio?
Have had a Dream Reaper and Outer Rings and both were awesome but ultimately not what I was looking for. The Outer Rings was really more a fuzz that could do ring mod than the other way around and had a little bit of a muff-ish quality to it. But with so many options on it, it could do a lot of things.
Currently have a Mother Tongue that is in the "To Sell" stack, when I finally get to it, hopefully soon. Didn't really fill a sonic need for me after playing with it. The only one on Reverb is asking twice what I paid for it which, I'm not a scalper but if that is what its worth, will be nice to offset some of my gear losses which oh my, this is not a cheap hobby.
Anyway, will definitely miss Adventure Audio. They made some distinctly original boxes for sure

Re: What happened to Adventure Audio?
Yeah, I liked The Outer Rings when I borrowed lordgalvar's. I just wouldn't want it as my only ring modulator. It's definitely more of a flavor pedal.

Re: What happened to Adventure Audio?
I agree, if the desire is for ring modulation then you are probably looking for something that has a more classic ring modulation sound. Even the Enzo, to me, fits the category a bit more distinctly.
