Sequential is an iconic American synthesizer manufacturer, renowned for its pioneering contributions to the development of analogue and hybrid synthesizers. Founded in 1978 by Dave Smith, the company (initially known as Sequential Circuits) revolutionized the music industry with its Prophet-5, the first fully programmable polyphonic synthesizer with digital patch memory. This groundbreaking instrument allowed musicians to store and recall sounds, making it a landmark development in music technology. The Prophet-5 became a defining instrument of the late 1970s and 1980s, widely used by artists across genres, from pop and rock to electronic and film scoring.

In recent years, under the leadership of Dave Smith, Sequential has continued to push boundaries with modern re-imaginings of classic instruments as well as entirely new designs. Notable products include the Prophet Rev2, Pro 3, OB-6 (in collaboration with Tom Oberheim), and the highly acclaimed Prophet-6—all of which blend vintage-inspired analogue circuitry with contemporary features like MIDI integration and digital control. Sequential’s synths are celebrated for their rich sound, robust build quality, and expressive interfaces, making them favourites among musicians, producers, and sound designers alike. The company remains a key player in the world of synthesizers, bridging the gap between vintage warmth and modern versatility.

Analog

An analog synthesizer is a musical instrument that generates sound electronically through the manipulation of voltage-controlled oscillators, filters, and amplifiers. Unlike digital synthesizers, which use computer processors to generate and manipulate sound waves, analog synths use voltage and electrical signals to produce a wide range of tones and textures. These synths are renowned for their warm, rich, and often unpredictable sound, making them a favorite among musicians and sound designers seeking organic and dynamic sonic capabilities. With their tactile controls and hands-on approach to sound shaping, analog synthesizers offer a unique and immersive experience for musicians exploring electronic music production.

B-Stock

“B-stock” refers to items that are not brand new but are still sold by manufacturers or authorised dealers. These products could be customer returns, showroom displays, or items with minor cosmetic blemishes. They are typically tested and certified to be in full working condition before being sold. B-stock items often come with a warranty, but it may be shorter than the warranty for new products.

B-stock products are usually offered at a discount compared to their new counterparts, making them an attractive option for buyers looking for savings. Although they may show signs of light use or minor imperfections, they should function as intended.

New

This product is brand new, unused, and in its original packaging. It has never been opened or used, ensuring you receive it in pristine, factory-sealed condition, just as originally manufactured.

It is ideal for those who want the assurance of a fresh start with their gear.

Poly

The Poly line is associated with synthesizers that are capable of polyphonic sound, allowing musicians to play multiple notes simultaneously. These instruments often come with advanced features for sound design, such as layering, modulation, and built-in effects.

Polyphonic synthesizers are popular among composers and performers looking to create rich, complex harmonies or textures. Brands like Roland, Yamaha, and Sequential offer various polyphonic models, each with its own unique sound engine, making them versatile tools for live performance and studio production.

Synthesizer

A synthesizer, often abbreviated as synth, is an electronic musical instrument that generates and manipulates sound electronically. Synthesizers create sound through various methods, including subtractive synthesis, additive synthesis, frequency modulation synthesis, and wavetable synthesis, among others. They typically feature oscillators to produce raw waveforms, filters to sculpt the timbre, envelopes to shape the sound’s amplitude, and modulation sources to add movement and complexity.

Synthesizers offer a vast range of sounds, from classic analog tones to futuristic digital textures, and are used in a wide array of musical genres, from electronic and pop to rock and film scoring. With their versatility and expressive capabilities, synthesizers are essential tools for musicians, producers, and sound designers seeking to explore and create innovative sonic landscapes.
