NEW MOOER Micro Series- D7 Delay & A7 ambient reverb - $100 mini pedals? are they worth it?

[@raf.raf.]

Really liking this style of edit, with a few short clips of the pedals being played right at the start.

[@60CycleHumcast]

I owe the idea to JPTR effects, they did a super cut of my reactions to their pedals and I was like 'hey, thats a pretty good idea"

[@invisiblegraveyard4742]

The Shimmer effect on the A7 is sick!

[@danielwilliams9634]

Hey Ryan, a lot of those sounds are in the Ocean Machine by Mooer, which I own, and you DEFINITELY need to check it out since you can stack 2 delays and a reverb with an independent shimmer control

[@jrr832]

So for the cost of two of the pedals you could an Ocean Machine, plus have an extra delay for free.

[@danielwilliams9634]

@@jrr832 yes

[@Gainn]

The Ocean machine is great value. I really like that you can rearrange the order the effects are in or stack them, plus put the looper where you want in the chain. The shimmer on it is pretty good for it's price range too.

[@samalbitz1451]

Thanks so much for mentioning this. I was going to go A7 and D7 to experiment with ambient, but after hours of Ocean Machine videos, I see it's probably the better move. Fantastic.

[@mattymodeerf]

Yes! Thank you! I was hoping youd review these. Please do the synth one, if possible?

[@60CycleHumcast]

They are supposed to send me one when its available.

[@MajorUpgrade]

LOL the mooer Spongebob and Patrick. It sounded like we were underwater there for a minute.

[@tomlopez7819]

The A7 comes off as an ok reverb with another layer of pad/synth type sounds that aren't really integrated into the signal. Someone on reddit commented that if you get a pair a Boss delay with a Boss reverb you can get most of the sounds that all of these cheap boutique boxes can come up with, along with a solid implementation of the reverb/delay. Those cheap boxes are made attractive with the artwork & price but you'll save money in the long run with a solid reverb/delay combos. Doesn't have to be a specific brand, just one that is known to have mastered vanilla reverb first. I ordered the A7 & Mariana, but looking into pedals more, I'm guessing that I'll send them back in exchange for a brand that can pull off the basics first.

[@blacksalamann]

You absolutely love oscillating!! haha We do too!!

Its just soooFun😀

Thanks for another episode of "Ryan's Sonic Sound Adventures". 👍

[@lapidarydave]

Thank you so much for the intro you save me 42 minutes of my life 😭🤣

[@ariesvictorygroup]

Shoegaze 😨🌟🌟🌟🌟🔥

[@bryantwalley]

Love to see you getting the respect and props from the manufacturers. Just about any delay with tap tempo is good for $100. Reminds me I need some barefoot buttons.

[@yohanonshine4664]

This is usually the time my wife asks me to turn it down, lol I suppose I could tell you about the 2ft plastic straw from the pixie sticks that fit on the knobs to reach without bending down when pedals on the floor lol

[@grilledspaghetti]

Boy that delay is a lot of fun. As I typed that it glitched. :D

[@60CycleHumcast]

haven't been able to reproduce the glitch, so no idea what happened there. still though.

[@jrr832]

Are these fx a cut down versions of the mooer ocean machine?

[@samuelmccoymp193]

Yes for sure

[@Newwaver2007]

I want mooer to get some great reverb sometime, so I can keep my pedalcase only with mooers

[@FirdausIdros]

Dreampop pedals in a budget. Wish the reverb has a stereo output

[@ariesvictorygroup]

Yes😊DreamPop Shoegaze😨💥

[@renula]

I have the D7. Love it.

[@alexandrepereira712]

does anyone know if the dry signal remain fully in the analog domain on this pedals?

[@bryantwalley]

Another thing that did cross my mind though was that for another $100 I could get a used Source Audio Collider. I could see advantages of either way. I don't remember SA sending you one to demo though unless I just missed it. PS - Don't forget to let me know if you get ready to sell that Gold Harmony over your left sholder.

[@renula]

I got my D7 for 70.00 new.

[@highvoltagebeaver6640]

I don't know if most of those settings are usable, but they sure are fun!

[@benspraker4137]

The delay cutting out at 9:27... a shame that it looks like the pedal froke out for a few seconds and cut out the whole signal. Makes me question gig-worthiness

[@60CycleHumcast]

Ben Spraker yeah not sure what happened there

[@UDLXXL]

Pretty cool. Think I prefer the delay. Feels like maybe it does too much? If it was a bit cheaper and just did the rainbow and galaxy settings or something

[@wychwoodmusic]

For some reason the video froze on Ryan's discombobulated face while the audio continued the first time I tried watching this, but... I reckoned it was perfect. Also that the rainbow setting sounds a lot more useable and pretty than just about anything I've heard come out of the EQD Rainbow Machine. I'd call it deliciously weird where the Rainbow Machine seems to specialize in making weird ugly sounds, at least to my ear. Anyways, tiny ambient monsters for a pretty reasonable price, who could resist?

[@MegaBrebis]

Great sounds! I see those pedals are not true bypass. Do they degrade the sound in any way when off?

[@pogadog]

I have one and I think like you. I asked Mooer website, they replied that it's BUFFER but it support buffer and true bypass other pedals.

[@sassycat]

I'll take one of each, please.

[@spookshilljoe6053]

That hb35 sounds the best to me

[@innerspacerace9196]

Nothing matters any Mooer not even dirt cheap guitar pedals

[@Ren-X]

Sometimes it's hard to tell whether that face means complete joy, or abject horror

[@GreenHoleSun]

Maybe both

[@fredrodnick2881]

To be honest the reverb pedal seems much more usable than the delay. My brother isn't a musician but if he had that delay, he would just strum open strings and turn the pedal knobs just to see the most craziest sounds he can get out oc it for a joke.

[@petelucchini1168]

What do you expect when you max everything on the pedal? It's gonna get noisy.

[@tothefinlandstation]

What *is* the deal with the facial expressions people feel they have to put on the preview pic for their youtube videos? Has anyone written about it?

tothefinlandstation i just try to grab a frame where I’m not looking bored. What kind of expression would you prefer?

tothefinlandstation there are paid 3rd party services that let creators test those things. I’ve never tried it.

[@Setright230]

Sorry mate, i ; like some of there gear use a mini pedal of their range yet way to out there for me. I couldn't find a use for many and delays reverb sound similar maybe too similar. but wind and 50's sounding computers dying is not really going to give you great tones. maybe effects for utube or movie clips. I thought they were getting better but these are more toys. sorry, just my bit. 👍😎🇦🇺

Grumpy Digger #IX I forgive you.

see the guy's suffering face when the effects are bad, that's the biggest reason I visit the videos on this channel xD

That scratchy switch negates the "Excellent Guitar" claim, but I have no doubt that it could be the truth after a change.

[@guilhermepatto516]

I only see that delay pedal on a B side song of an Radiohead album... that thing is gross. 100 bucks? An MXR carbon copy is way better. Great fun watching the video 👍🏻

[@bassnmusic4572]

So much functions, but no normal delay in there that sounds good so, 100 Dollar for what exactly? 😂😂😂😂😂

[@pmtxusa9946]

Walrus R1 at 1/3 the price

[@barnshart9662]

The rainbow delay sounds awfully similar to something, I just can't put my finger on it. Oh! That's right, the Earthquaker Devices Rainbow Machine. Also kinda hate that they called one of their knobs on the reverb "x". Seems like a blatant copy of the Slö by Walrus Audio. I appreciate the cheap guys like Moore putting out great products like these, I just wish they didn't directly attach other companies ideas to their products, have a little creativity and at least come up with a different name when lifiting other people's stuff.

[@eylvy]

I'm debating between getting the Slo or this pedal. Do you think it's a Slo "clone"? X -> X, Decay -> Decay, Mix -> Mix, Chaos -> Depth, and Tone -> Filter. Also, same pedal color and painted stars, plus the Infinite option (where the difference between this and the Slo is that you don't have to keep pressing the footswitch.. BUT I think with the Mooer, you can continue playing the Reverb setting, where as in the Slo, it's dry).

[@54pjs]

Just got my D7 and must say not at all what the hype says kinda cheesy and hard to dial in a good sound and when switching to another sound the previous one you lost your edit very frustrating looper weak and only a couple effects are really nice sounding after tweaking them in. The rest of the pedal is awful sounding. Spend a few more dollars and get a real ambient pedal Like Polara or EHX Tone Tattoo I have both and the Canyon is nice too. This D7 works better with another pedal with it stand alone very limited. most setting unusable to me. Would never use one live just not refined for that home hobby jaming for fun thats about it. Was going to get the A7 but think not after the D7
