Today we're going to take an in-depth look at a forgotten and weird piece of guitar effects gear from the 1990s, the Zoom Fire 7010. In the ‘90s Zoom was on the forefront of bringing guitar effects to the masses, with a whole host of affordable multi-effects units. And it appears that the engineers at Zoom were in full-on experimentation mode with the development of the Fire 7010. It looks like it is more at home on a desk with some 1980s computer peripherals than it would be near any sort of musical instrument. In this video we'll take a look at the strange form factor, and plug it in to hear what this forgotten tabletop guitar effects device sounds like almost 30 years later.

In each episode, we’ll delve into the realms of creativity, music, gear, technology, and art. We’ll explore the history of unique and forgotten music gear, interview some of our favorite musicians and artists, dig into technical details about sound creation tools, look at prototypes we’ve built, find new and interesting ways to use old gear, make a bunch of music with friends, and ultimately—have as much fun doing all this as humanly possible.

What is Olinthus? ► Charles and Ethan have decades of experience leading creative design teams at top music gear companies. In 2023 they decided to leave that all behind and form Olinthus—a company devoted to creating products and experiences that inspire inventive ideas, spark joy, and make you laugh. We have several products that are currently in development, and look forward to releasing these to the public soon!

What does the name Olinthus mean? ► To us, the name Olinthus means creativity, technology, art, science, and natural beauty. Olinthus is an alternate spelling of Olynthus, a neotropical genus of butterfly in the family Lycaenidae. Olinthus was also the first name of Olinthus Gilbert Gregory, an English mathematician that combined his love of mathematics with an interest in music. The word origin comes from the Greek Olynthos, meaning “the fruit of the wild fig tree”.
