Very nicely done, thanks for posting this. Just got my E7, still exploring, but this may be the best demo so far, very clear demo of effects and sounds, without any annoying dialogue constantly interrupting (never have figured out why some demos are so bent on that style of presentation).
Nice demo as always (hence my thumb-up), but I think they could have chosen a wider palette of synth "preset" sounds for the Mooer, they kinda sound similar.
Here we go again. The boards are complete and settled, totally right for the gigs. No tweaks required, I've got my sound. I'm happy, the duo partner's happy, job's a good 'un. Then some ***** posts a video... 🙂
best pedal for it's pricepoint. Ordered one a few days ago. I wanted a roland guitar synth but am having to save for a move, and will be making a synthwave song with this and various vsts. The only thing missing is a midi out, which would be SPECTACULAR.
Thanks! I think it’s easy to shape the sound to get something you’ll like if you use other pedals with it. Modulations and reverbs always help with synth sounds.
Hi Do Noise! What do you about the mooer pedal as an 8bits chiptune pedal? For me, it sound really good as an approach in some oscillator, but it doesnt complete the task. May be there is a way for doing that?
@@shoseinen I don’t know, to be honest. I didn’t use mine that way. Maybe this video will help you more: ua-cam.com/video/ebtX8hKohEY/v-deo.htmlsi=SJXAEKKbpDRbGRsk
When it comes to digitizers like bitcrushers and synths, the number of bits is your resolution which works just like image resolution, where more bits = clearer image and less bits = more pixilization. 32 bit is basically digitized full-audio and 5 bits is semi-random waveform noise with the Goldilocks resolution for "true" chiptune sound at 8bits or so (although, I prefer 16bit). Bitcrushers and synths typically have a resolution knob, but this thing has a fixed resolution at somewhere between 12 and 16 bit depending on mode (although it sounds downscaled a bit to make it more synth-y). This pedal has more of a Megadrive/Genesis or PCEngine/TurboGraphix16 sound rather than NES/SNES or early Microcomputer sound, which may or may not, be what you're looking for. I want to get one to experiment with for bass, by pumping either octaver or phaser into it, then feeding the output into a bitcrusher like the Sonicake Wavecrush or EH Mainframe, to see if I can get a proper chiptune sound out of it.
What about if used with an acoustic instrument ,and keep the mix knob in a Low position, to obtain the effected sound as " background sound" ? Thank you!
Hi! Beautiful composition. I have a question. I dont have enough money to buy the Boss sy1 but i have enough to buy this one. My songs are very inspired en Muse's music, so this pedal will fullfil my needs?
I haven’t tried the Boss SY-1. These pedals would probably sound very similar in most setups and fortunately there are a lot of demos of both. It should be easy to decide if the sound is for you. The pedal’s response to your playing is probably where it would make the most difference for you but it’s almost impossible to understand that without trying it yourself.
Whats your signal chain? Your amp and cab sim seem to introduce a cheap digital tremolo effect (like bad pitch shifters do) that sounds like the pedal is broken. The direct recording on the other hans is super clean, thanks for that!
The amp and cab was a clean Fender style simulation from Line 6 HX Stomp. Signal chain is Guitar>HX Stomp >Computer. HX Stomp signal chain is: Guitar>Amp>FX Loop>Cab>Room reverb. E7 is in the FX Loop.
SY-1 has 121 different modes, but many of them are very similar. If you’re looking for a ton of flexibility/features, the SY-1 is it. But if you just want a few cool synth sounds, this will definitely get you there, and for a lot cheaper.
I have the SY-1 and it has a lot of sounds and you can tweak them fairly well to your liking, this has different sounds and parameters and presets and it’s mini? Gonna get one and pair it with the SY-1, possible double arpeggiator chaos lol
Hard to say as they’re very different. If you’re not able to try them yourself, best thing to do would be to watch as many demos as possible and try to see which one is right for you.
Nice demo, thanks. I was considering Boss SY-1 but during the search found this. I love playing blues and am looking for a organ type just for variation. The reference tone is something like this (ua-cam.com/video/BTOTCmvwNgY/v-deo.html) - Do you think Mooer E7 can produce a similar sound? SY-1 looks a bit expensive expecially when I am only looking to get a few sound variations.
@@DoNoise Btw, do you have experience with Boss SY-1 and if so will it be closer to the tone I am looking for? I will check out EHX 9 series pedals in the mean time. Thanks.
@@gorimus I have both, and the sy1 is very good on organs. For typical synth sounds as sawtooth wave patches and arpegiators, I think that the quality is the same.
I was considering this. I own a Boss SY 300, Source Audio C4 and a Meris Enzo. The sound of this is very thin and sounds a lot Toyish., I’ll have to pass in this one..
You own the absolute best pedals for Synth emulation on guitar. Hell, just the SY-300 costs like 800 bucks on amazon, at the CHEAPEST. The E7 costs 80 usd... it's kind of unfair to compare them considering they are completely different price and quality ranges. For someone who doesn't have 1000 dollars to spare, this is a really cool tool, especially because every other synth pedal out there doesn't go down from 120 dollars in price
Best Video using this pedal, so many boring ass players playing blues with this!
I bought the A7 Ambient reverb pedal and was impressed. From every review I've seen , they seem to all be very usable.
Very nicely done, thanks for posting this. Just got my E7, still exploring, but this may be the best demo so far, very clear demo of effects and sounds, without any annoying dialogue constantly interrupting (never have figured out why some demos are so bent on that style of presentation).
I just got mine, and I am having so much fun with it.
I agree with all comments about this being a good demo. Thanks
You convinced me I need this
1:03 that sounds beautifuuuuul!!
Thanks for a great video! Very helpful to hear how it sounds just going direct. Excited to watch more of your demos
30 seconds in and I am obviously going to have to buy one today! Props man!
2:45 serious Flaming Lips vibes right here
Nice jam at the end; definitely my speed.
So I am going to see what happens when I run this pedal with an Arturia Micro Brute 😸🎉
How did that go?
Must've been bloody brutal if he never came back

I've just brought the a7 after watching chappers reviewed it.. so looking forward to the sounds...
bought it because of this video
Good demo; don't care much for the sounds of the modes, though. Which is good info to have!

Katastrofalan sound! Bljak!
bru at 9:54 I just got lost in the sound and forgot it was even a guitar playing that

Hi,
Sorry I am not sure I understand the question.
@@DoNoise The question is if you think the Mooer synth is a good pedal for doing 8bits/chiptune sounds like Game boy, Nintendo/Famicom, Atari?

@@DoNoise but you hear that tremolo sound too right? Or am i imagening?
have you tried the Boss SY-1? Curious to see how this one holds up against the SY-1
No I haven’t but I’m very curious about it. Playing them side by side would be interesting.

Despite the efforts of the Mooer company, these presets look like an angry cat. Unusable. Thanks anyway.-
Wtf is an unstable preset?
