Molten Music Technology’s Fourm Review: Sequential’s Little Box of Analog Mischief

Molten Music Technology’s Robin Vincent gets his hands on the Sequential Fourm, a four-voice analog synth that’s small in size but big on attitude. Forget the bells and whistles—this box is all about raw, classic subtractive power, with a build that could survive a toaster-fight in a rave bunker. No built-in effects? Good. It forces you to get creative and stop hiding behind reverb. In this review, Robin dives into the Fourm’s sound palette, quirks, and that infamous polyphonic aftertouch, all with his signature blend of honesty and dry British wit. If you want to know whether this synth slaps

Molten Music Technology Unleashes the Korg microAUDIO 722: Filter Mayhem in Your Interface

Molten Music Technology’s Robin Vincent is back, and this time he’s got his hands on a device that’s as mad as a bag of frogs: the Korg microAUDIO 722.

Robin’s honest, gear-obsessed style cuts through the noise, showing us why this hybrid box is more than just a gimmick. If you think audio interfaces can’t be fun, prepare to have your cynicism filtered out.
