The Sequential Fourm compact polyphonic analog synthesizer delivers the soul of classic analog synthesis in a compact, hands-on unit. Built around the Prophet-5 voice structure, this synth features dual oscillators with simultaneous waveform selection and a 4-pole low-pass filter. The addition of bass compensation boosts low-end response, giving every patch more punch. Polyphonic aftertouch on the 37-note slim-key keyboard lets you bend notes or swell chords, unlocking expressive techniques not possible on most polysynths. With intuitive top-panel modulation, the unit is designed for musicians who want immediate access to sound-shaping tools—without menu-diving. Studio producers and synth enthusiasts will find this synthesizer ready for live play, sound design and hands-on experimentation straight out of the box.
Prophet-5 Voice Structure Delivers Iconic Analog Tone
The core of this synthesizer uses true analog oscillators modeled after the Prophet-5, producing a warm, organic sound. Dual oscillators offer simultaneous wave selection, while oscillator B also supports low-frequency operation for added modulation options. The 4-pole resonant filter, now enhanced with bass compensation, shapes each tone with clarity and depth. This architecture provides a punchy, dynamic response that stands out in any mix.
Polyphonic Aftertouch and Slim Keys Enable Expressive Performance
Polyphonic aftertouch across the 37 slim keys creates new opportunities for real-time musical expression. Players can bend notes, add swells or articulate each voice independently—actions usually reserved for high-end or vintage gear. This unlocks creative phrasing, making each performance more personal and detailed.
Hands-on Modulation Matrix Simplifies Sound Design
The Pro-One inspired modulation matrix sits on the top panel, using buttons and color-coded indicators for fast routing. Players select sources and destinations without scrolling through screens, visualizing complex paths instantly. This layout keeps the creative flow going, letting users experiment and build sounds quickly—crucial in both stage and studio settings.
All-Steel Chassis Provides Lasting Durability
This unit features a solid, all-steel chassis for maximum strength and longevity. High-quality knobs and switches feel precise under the fingers, while the anti-theft slot adds security for gigging musicians. Reliable construction ensures the synthesizer stands up to regular transport and long sessions, year after year.
Fourm Synthesizer Experience Rewards Creative Players
Performers and producers who value hands-on control and a classic analog signal path will connect with this synthesizer\'s direct interface and flexible expressiveness. The combination of polyphonic aftertouch, fast modulation routing and robust build supports musicians who want to push sound design and live performance further.
