Refreshingly different, most pedal reviewers seem to think I want to play dad-blues licks through even the most lush reverbs. I don't even own a guitar, but sometimes I want vocals and synths to sound like I got lost in a cave...this is helpful for that!
Not only did I buy this because of your review, I also listen to it go to sleep, so peaceful. I love the fact that you can 'tune' it to fit whatever key you are in.
Damn. This is really impressive! Even that Shimmer sounds good, which is really rare for cheaper reverb pedals, in my experience. Good job, Mooer! You made a smaller, cheaper, more versatile, "Slö killer"!
Excellent demo, just the way it should be. No annoying stories, pitches, trying to sound cool and other distracting BS, but rather very well played examples of each preset and adjusting the controls. I already have the Ocean Machine, but as a smaller, simpler mini-OM, this is a great little pedal.
Very nice demo because you go through the range of each knob without taking forever like most other pedal demos on you tube. Either that or they don't show the full range of the knobs or ramble on about the packaging for 5- 10 minutes. Not talking helps us to concentrate on the pedal sounds with easy to understand text printed on the screen. Thanks. 100% top notch job.
I put this pedal in the effects loop of my EHX Superego+ and used the shimmer setting on a track in my current release. It sounds almost sitar-like in certain contexts. This pedal really does provide a good value for money.
This is the best video explaining all the controls of the A7. The manual is unfortunately very lacking. Thank you. Been enjoying my A7 for a few days now.
This is EXACTLY the demo I was looking for. I was on the fence between this and the Joyo R14 as an entry into true ambient effects. I am 100% on board for this pedal now.
Demo of Mooer R7 Reverb: ruclips.net/video/gzUlMxqxSgo/видео.html I used the same loops in a couple of parts and in the mode run-through part so that you can compare them easily.
Great demo!! Do you think it works on fretless bass (subtle settings) cause i can't find any info on this matter. I would use it for dreamscaping fretless tones.
After having this for a month, only two gripes... it's hard to get any sort of 'plain' verb with the plate, even with everything turned down (that said, it's an ambient pedal - I can usually get a workable verb out of any pedal like my Blackhole). The Crush one seems useless, it just seems to be a high pitched sound, then it goes full noise once it gets past a point. I like the other verbs, though.
Thanks! I didn’t notice additional noise with the A7. I didn’t use any post processing to remove noise or alter the sound so the video should give you an idea as to how it behaves with my setup. It might be different with different guitars/amps/power supplies. I didn’t directly compare it to other pedals except for the shimmer mode. You can hear that here: ruclips.net/video/e2tougpCSHQ/видео.html
Thanks again! Another question, save button on my pedal is always red even if its blinking on infinity trail mode or not. I wonder how you set the trail off and how the save button's led turns to blue trail off as the manual refers..
Yeah for real. I'm grabbing a mooer black truck, one of these and clean boost pedal of some sort. For less than $500 bucks you can have yourself a whole pedal board from these guys. Analog sounds better also! in my opinion.
Slö owner here. These are strikingly similar, though the mooer has more features (shimmer for exame). I mean- look at the color of the paint, and "Dream" mode even: they knew what they were doing... Shootout videos will be immanent.
@@AndyAcker seriously though, I can't believe how great this sounds and its EASILY on par with the sounds you get from the Slo or other ambient reverbs
It sounds similar to the Resolution control on Dr Scientist The Atmosphere or maybe the Drag control on Earthquaker Devices Afterneath. Both have expression control.
The brandnew price of this Pedal is the 2nd hand price of the TCE Hall of Fame V2. Which one do you prefer? I really want to try this one to replace my Ammoon Pockverb. TIA
Hall of Fame is probably more comparable to Mooer R7 rather than A7. I like the experimental and interesting modes of A7 and versatility and stereo in/outs of Hall of Fame. For a mono rig or front of chain reverb, I’d probably choose A7. For a stereo rig or a general purpose end of chain reverb I’d probably choose HoF.
I've just tried that pedal and was really disappointed. Maybe it's better in stereo but I only have one amp. It sounded thin and uninteresting so I returned it. I might try the Zoom CDR 70 now...
MegaBrebis the sounds for the video was recorded in mono (as the pedal itself is mono) and you’re hearing the direct signal from HX Stomp here (Clean amp model > A7 > Cab). Nothing else in the signal chain. Really surprised that it was disappointing for you.
Check out the effects list of the Multistomp. Both have effects the other doesn’t. I like the A7 more as a reverb but Multistomp has lots of effects and it’s very versatile.
Nice pedal . Too bad it is made for a child's sized foot & fingers :-) . I have a sized 12 shoe and an old friend used to call me gorilla hands because I have a size 16 ring finger :-)
Check out my demo of R7 X2 which features all modes of A7 and R7 in stereo.
ruclips.net/video/MFefN8zz_Bw/видео.html
I will be watching the r7 x2 demo next so maybe you answer this question there: did you miss the "chaos" control on the stereo version?

God bless mooer for giving us premium gear at half the price :D
Sounds like a chase bliss pedal without the shocking price tag, definitely my next pedal!
Exactly what I was thinking. CB makes some great pedals for sure but the prices are nuts.
@@WhiteWolf-- absolutely agree Chase Bliss pedals are amazing but at those prices I'll likely never own one haha
@@rwalshphotos5626 Dude I know! Even used they are crazy expensive
I like Chase Bliss but -visually at least- it's a clear nod to the Walrus Slo
Mode 5 sounds just as good as my OBNE Dark Star in crush

Good job, Mooer! You made a smaller, cheaper, more versatile, "Slö killer"!
+ presets and infinite hold on a mini pedal!
@@DoNoise Exactly! I'm definitely interested in picking up one of these, and the Synth!
Just got mine today. WOW!! Is all I can say right now. Soooo much potential. Wish all pedals were this size.

Thanks!
Yeah the manual could have been better. Thankfully it doesn’t have any complicated or hidden controls.
Really beautiful verb, I like the slightly lofi quality of it, it has texture. Some trippy, cool noises when you turn the knobs while playing too!
Another 1 I want now. Damn you pedal world!
Now that’s how you demo a reverb - thank you!
This is EXACTLY the demo I was looking for. I was on the fence between this and the Joyo R14 as an entry into true ambient effects. I am 100% on board for this pedal now.
Subscribed because you didn’t play a mindless noodle! Thanks dude!
Really nice playing- this video pushed me to pull the trigger on one
This is the pedal that I've been searching for. Bought and subscribed. Thanks.
bought mine and received it today, very happy, thank you Mooer!
I'll have some great fun recording with this. Wow, I hear cello like tones right now, mine just shipped.
I always been satisfied with my Mooer drummer pedal , I’ll get this one & couple more ..
I just bought this one after watching your amazing demo! Thanks a ton!

Instablaster.
Yes God bless this company!
please make a video of a combination of this and R7 and D7. would love to see the result. new sub here, love your videos!
Najmi D. Thanks!
I used them together in the E7 video but might make another video with all of them together.
showing each knob function and full wet on the same source to hear the differences, why isn't all demos done like this...
Just ordered mine
great demo and beautiful micro pedal
😊
Its really cool i have 1 now..enjoying ambient guitar music 👍🙂thanks god speed
Brilliant sounds and great value pedal
Great demo. Bought one today. 😊
0:00 i legit thought you are going to play Indica. Great pedal!
great sounding budget multi reverb. not crazy expensive. you get a lot of reberb for your money here. i'll be keeping mine. its got a lot of utility.
I think this would work in my synth set up. Thanks!
I have one of these on the way :) I can't wait to get my hands on it! Great demo 👍 I love your vids
How was it? All worth it?
great demo.....thanks
This thing is ridiculous. Wouldn't mind having one of these kicking around.
This would really fit for you if you play on church 😍😍 I hope I could buy one of these.
Yeah man that ambient sound 🤯🤯
Dang you, Do Noise. I just ordered it. Lofi reverb with infinite trails run into an analog looper is something I just hafta do.
give me examples for analogue loopers, please!
This is just as good maybe even better then the Strymon Big Sky
Not even close.
Ha. Hold on there now. :)
So good 👏👍👍
Nice review
I have this pedal. It works great.
good work
Sounds amazing. Does the effect not apply to new signal during the infinite sustain? It sounded dry there.
Great video, thanks. How durable is that pedal ?
Muito bom este pedal🐎
I want to see a comparison between this and the walrus audio slö that this a7 pedal is based on
There might be similarities but I don’t feel like this is based on Slo. I’d be into making that video if I had the Slo, though.
Great demo!! Do you think it works on fretless bass (subtle settings) cause i can't find any info on this matter. I would use it for dreamscaping fretless tones.
Thank you! I have no idea, unfortunately. I didn’t try it with bass.
After having this for a month, only two gripes... it's hard to get any sort of 'plain' verb with the plate, even with everything turned down (that said, it's an ambient pedal - I can usually get a workable verb out of any pedal like my Blackhole). The Crush one seems useless, it just seems to be a high pitched sound, then it goes full noise once it gets past a point. I like the other verbs, though.
Surprised to hear you don’t like the Crush mode. That might be my favorite on this!
@@DoNoise It's painful. Just sounds like a high-pitched noise, like faulty gear - can't seem to find anything useful from it.
4:14 sustain infinito ? Como el walrus fathom ?
Nice demo! Have you noticed any noise or hiss when A7 is operating?
Also, have you test it versus Hall Of fame? Thanks!
Thanks!

Another question, save button on my pedal is always red even if its blinking on infinity trail mode or not. I wonder how you set the trail off and how the save button's led turns to blue trail off as the manual refers..
? Just got one for dry out gr55. My question is can you recreate basic reverb sounds too? Like rooms small hall no trails etc.???
Yikes. Mooer has really stepped up their game!
Between this and the R7, which would you recommend more?
Depends on what kind of reverb you want or like. I’d use A7 more because it has more uncommon reverb modes, compared to the classic reverbs of R7.
@@DoNoise I'm thinking the A7 too. Thanks for the excellent demos!
Yeah for real. I'm grabbing a mooer black truck, one of these and clean boost pedal of some sort. For less than $500 bucks you can have yourself a whole pedal board from these guys. Analog sounds better also! in my opinion.
Great demo. Are any of the modulations random?
Thanks!
Modulation on some of the modes sound like random.
Show me how to play these magical chords, please.
They are most likely simple chords but I don’t remember unfortunately.
does it have trail?
What power supply do you use for the pedal? I got mine today and it won't power up with my boss adapter. Its 9V DC though 300ma instead of 200ma.
I’m using MXR Mini Iso Brick. 9V 300ma should power it. Not sure what the problem might be.
@@DoNoise i figured it out. Turns out the boss adapters have their polarity reversed... But thank you anyway!
Wow.... does it work on acoustic guitars??
Would love to hear. Am looking to buy a pedal just for acoustic. Im deep down the rabbit hole now. HOF looks like the obvious choice tho
How does this stack up against the Walrus Slo?
I’m not sure, I never tried the Slo.
Slö owner here. These are strikingly similar, though the mooer has more features (shimmer for exame). I mean- look at the color of the paint, and "Dream" mode even: they knew what they were doing... Shootout videos will be immanent.
@@AndyAcker thanks
@@AndyAcker and an x knob lol
@@AndyAcker seriously though, I can't believe how great this sounds and its EASILY on par with the sounds you get from the Slo or other ambient reverbs
I got mine today. How do you update the firmware?
First Comment Yes! Dope Video!
Can someone try this on bass guitar
I don't suppose there are any pedals that let you control whatever X is controlling with an expression pedal?
It sounds similar to the Resolution control on Dr Scientist The Atmosphere or maybe the Drag control on Earthquaker Devices Afterneath. Both have expression control.
No pre delay?
So the hold is like a freeze pedal but holding the effect and not the dry signal?
Yes
The brandnew price of this Pedal is the 2nd hand price of the TCE Hall of Fame V2. Which one do you prefer? I really want to try this one to replace my Ammoon Pockverb. TIA
Hall of Fame is probably more comparable to Mooer R7 rather than A7.
I like the experimental and interesting modes of A7 and versatility and stereo in/outs of Hall of Fame.
For a mono rig or front of chain reverb, I’d probably choose A7. For a stereo rig or a general purpose end of chain reverb I’d probably choose HoF.
is there a latch hold, or do you need to always hold the button down? thanks
No latch
@@DoNoise ok thanks
I've just tried that pedal and was really disappointed. Maybe it's better in stereo but I only have one amp. It sounded thin and uninteresting so I returned it. I might try the Zoom CDR 70 now...

Can you toggle between the presets using the foot switch?
No
This or the Joyo Atmoshphere?
I haven’t tried the Joyo Atmosphere
Joyo horrible lo tuve que vender
Reminds me of the hall of fame 2
I have an Ensemble King and a Reecho. Do I get this or the Zoom 50mg
Check out the effects list of the Multistomp. Both have effects the other doesn’t. I like the A7 more as a reverb but Multistomp has lots of effects and it’s very versatile.
@@DoNoise Thanks mate. I'll check it out.
Ms70*
It's like a cut down ocean machine
TIENE UN SOLO SONIDO CON REVER
how exactly, do you select each mode?
Save button goes to the preset of the next mode when pressed once.
@@DoNoisecan you save a default preset to be what comes on every time the pedal is engaged?
All of the modes except shimmer sound very similar, it sounds good, but the difference is subtle
Звучит не хуже Walrus Audio SLO.
I see it's not true bypass. Does it degrade the sound in any way when off? Thank you.
I didn’t notice any degradation
can be use in acoustic guitar as well?
Yes
6 minutes.. I'm starting to hear Hosanna Hillsong
7 Shimer diferente kkkkkkkkkkk
Nice pedal . Too bad it is made for a child's sized foot & fingers :-) . I have a sized 12 shoe and an old friend used to call me gorilla hands because I have a size 16 ring finger :-)
