Devin Belanger Unleashes the Sequential FOURM: Prophet Power in a Pint-Sized Package

Rain-soaked Vancouver, a fresh Sequential FOURM on the doorstep, and Devin Belanger (aka Miles Away) ready to tear into it—this is not your average synth unboxing. Devin’s no stranger to classic Prophet tones, but the FOURM promises those iconic sounds in a smaller, poly-aftertouch-equipped beast. If you’re after a synth that can snarl, shimmer, and maybe even out-Blade-Runner your wallet, Devin’s first hours with the FOURM are a must-watch. Expect brass pads, modulation madness, and a few honest jabs at four-voice limitations. Don’t blink—this one moves fast.
