With the Mooer E7 Polyphonic Guitar Synth, the effects specialist from the Far East has added another ultra-compact pedal to its range. Hidden within the robust baby blue housing are seven unique synthesizer tones, an arpeggiator, low and high-cut filters, and seven memory slots to allow the user to save their settings as presets. To enable future firmware updates, a micro USB port has been added to the side of the housing and, of course, the Mooer E7 Polyphonic Guitar Synth runs in true bypass when deactivated.
The seven synthesizer sounds are selected by pressing the Save button, which is also responsible for saving user-created presets to the seven available slots. The E7 Polyphonic Guitar Synth's spectrum of synth tones ranges from trumpet and organ-like sounds to sawtooth wave sounds with rapidly changing LFO effects, as well as 8-bit sounds and an EDM/pad-style synthesizer tone that is ideal for floating pads. With adjustable attack values and arpeggiator speeds, the E7 offers plenty of ways to creatively adjust the parameters of each synthesizer tone. Last but not least, a low-cut filter with a bass cut of 20Hz to 2kHz and a high-cut filter with a range of 5 to 20 kHz offer even greater control over the sound according to the needs of any given setup.
The Mooer E7 Polyphonic Guitar Synth is not intended to replace a "real" synthesizer, but it can nonetheless be a fantastic addition to any pedalboard setup by providing guitarists and bassists with a cross-section of the most popular synth sounds. The included presets can be customised according to personal taste using the pedal's arpeggiator and attack control as well as the powerful high and low-cut filters. LED indicators along the side of the pedal will blink rapidly when user-created presets are saved.
Mooer is based in the Chinese city of Shenzhen and has been making products for guitarists since 2010, which include compact single pedals through to multi-effects units and compact amplifiers. The company initially produced a range of mini pedals before making perhaps its most significant breakthrough in 2016 with the sophisticated Ocean Machine delay pedal, which was designed in collaboration with Devin Townsend. Mooer's product range now also includes solutions that feature amp modelling, IR-based speaker simulation, and matching equalisers, and the company's focus remains firmly on the use of digital technology.
Thanks to its extremely compact dimensions, the Mooer E7 Polyphonic Guitar Synth is not only a space-saving addition to any pedalboard, it can also fit easily into a gig bag or jacket pocket when on the move. The E7 can also be easily hooked up to a guitar and amplifier in no time at all without the need for special pickups or instrument modifications. Whether they are playing a bright and colourful solo using the sawtooth synth preset (mode 5) or adding atmospheric, ocean wave-like tones (mode 3) to quieter songs, Players can rely on the Mooer E7 to excel at both tasks thanks to its excellent sound quality, fast string tracking, and low background noise levels. The seven presets provide a great basis upon which users can experiment and realise their creative ideas.
