Hi Matt, I have serial #0001 and helped with some feature design. MPE is a major feature here, and I've used E7 with an Embodme Erae Touch MPE controller in a soundtrack for an upcoming horror movie with actors from the Marvel Universe and the TV series Breaking Bad. I also use this in my music with Jon Anderson of the band YES. What the Erae Touch lets you do that the Linnstrument does not is slide notes vertically, so you can do huge multi-octave slides with ease and get some very spacey sounds with E7. Guido Salaya of GS Music is a major up and coming synth genius, I introduced him to Dave Smith for an inspirational conversation before Dave's passing. Matt, I wanted to thank you for making a great video to show off the E7 and expose your audience to it. I have no financial interest in the sales of E7, but just want to support a young genius synth designer getting the exposure he deserves!
Dear Matt! As an argentinian first let me say: "Thank you very much for your kindful concepts about Argentina and argentinians at the begining of the video!"❤ During the last two or three years I became a regular follower of your TH-cam channel and of course I'm agree about your top skill playing piano, synths and keyboards. You are a genious!!! Your tips are very importants and useful for us (simply mortals), but these time you surprised me with an argentino synth!!! 😃 I really don't know about its existence, but see it, hear it and hear your considerations about it make me feel full of proud, and it looks so argento too!!! 🇦🇷 Perhaps those feelings couldn't be easy to understand for people from other nationalities, used to more rational things, but at this side of the world things usually are more difficult and impredictables than they should must be, so the proud I feel now it's huge!!! My best regards from 🇦🇷 obviously, and thank you again dear Matt!!
Something to note, it is also MPE compatible. It works extremely well with the linnstrument. I have had this synth for about six months, and I play it with a linnstrument. Either way its a great synth and the more attention the better.
Love the LFO keyboard tracking. More synths should have this! I think I remember Steve Porcaro mentioning this as one of the "secrets" of the fat and organic sounding pads of the Oberheim Xpander. Great video as always!! Cheers from Berlin
@@SPAZZOID100 the OB-6 is really nice yeah, but this one does honestly sound really sweet in many ways, even with the shortcomings I consider the Moog- style ladder filter to have
I remember seeing this synth prototype demo about 2 years ago when I was a guest on Ranzee's podcast back in 2021 and specifically said, " It has a real bite to it, that is missing from alot of polysynths these days and, commenting on my admiiration of the raw tone ", 2 years later today I stand by my words . Very well demonstrated Matt 👌🏾👌🏾👌🏾
Sounds incredible. Always cool to find those lesser known newer gems. Love that they gave it an extra voice over a typical 6 voice too for 7 note extended chord pads.
I must say I didn’t have such a sound epiphany since I listend to the Waldorf Microwave for the first time 30 years ago. This synth is „It“! This raw basic sound, unbelievable!👍
@@Claude_van Don't get what you're talking about. The only synth I couldn't make decent string sound with was old Electribe. It needs digital effects, outboard if necessary.
Yeah you would. This guy is burnt out. All he's got now is all that top-line crap, knowledge how to use it, but nothing in his sould to make anything complete.
This sounds amazing....How does this random company make a more pure sounding synth than all these other "top" brands? And for that price? Wow. I'm not cray about the layout/look but that sound is awesome and it's 4 part multi-timbral as well? We need more Multitimbral synths on the market. Awesome video, thanks for making it and your other music.
Yeah I saw Miles Away cover this a little while ago. Has a very nice sound. Almost wish I’d found it before I got the Take 5, although the Take 5 is also an awesome synth.
That "When you think of Argentina" bit had me chuckling like mad for some reason. You're right, I've never thought of Argentina and thought "great synths" 🤣🤣🤣
Sounds great, Matt - for some reason (perhaps the colour) it also reminds me of the PPG, even though it’s analogue, not digital, it has a metallic flavour that’s very musical on certain patches, and I also love when the impressive filter is closed down - always a good test of an analogue synth. Great review as always, bravo Argentina!
it's a great one! I played one very recently and it's realy amazing, also agree on the 70s vibe, and i thinks its sound works very well with you Matt, just grat!
Order mine today….a blue one just like Matt’s..hoping some of his skill will rub off on it 😁. Also ordered an Eventide H9 Max to go along with it. Thanks for the well-done videos Matt. I especially like how you show a bunch of sounds/patches but I also learn a lot of useful ideas from your videos
Its Very very Musical sounding ,, but that just could be your playing Matt ! - I just took a look at their website and noticed they have a prototype called Uranus !!! I bet the bottom end on that things is off the chain !!!
Great country and now producing a great synth too! I will recommend it to one of my Argentian friends who is a musician if he doesn;t know this synth already. .
The patch played just after the 10 min mark is very Vangelis. The E7 sounds like it has some of the tonal characteristics of both the Prophet 5 and the OB-X
It sounds brighter than a Prophet 5 to my ears. For me, the inspiration seems to be a Prophet 6, with a Moog style filter. I think the filter sounds great and help is make Prophet 5 sounds, but open it up, and it's very fizzy on the high end. If you compare the E7 and P6's specs, they are very similar (Except for the filter).
Seeing an Argentine synth around the world makes me proud!!

That's awesome yes I can imagine it would sound far out! You are right Guido is a talent, I love the sonic quality of this synth it's beautiful
How’s the build quality
@@TwinCitiesOxygen Its a heavy unit very solid metal with beautiful soft wooden sides.

Yes it's lovely to see a small company do so well. I've been to Argentina a few times it's a great place!
Somos dos
What's nice about killing animals for steaks? You industrial animal farming is nothing to be proud of.
Thank you for showing the synth in a musical context
Something to note, it is also MPE compatible. It works extremely well with the linnstrument. I have had this synth for about six months, and I play it with a linnstrument. Either way its a great synth and the more attention the better.
This is a top shelf, phenomenal sounding analog poly and it’s accessible!❤
That Synth out ranks me, I only ever was an E6.
Love the LFO keyboard tracking. More synths should have this! I think I remember Steve Porcaro mentioning this as one of the "secrets" of the fat and organic sounding pads of the Oberheim Xpander. Great video as always!! Cheers from Berlin
That’s the Matt sound!!!
So hyped you got one of these too Matt! I agree, it's an absolute hidden gem. Oh, and phenomenal playing from you as always!
WOW!!! That patch at 13:40 is thick and juicy in a Oberheim/Prophet way
Truly awesome sounding analog synthesizer! Thank you for introducing us to this killer synth!
Did you buy one?
Perfect…. the E7 with a side of Lomo in Chimichurri sauce. I’m all in!
That thing oozes character and mojo! Love it!
So happy to see my compatriots make such an awesome piece of kit and to hear one of my all time keyboard heroes playing it. A dream! Vamos Argentina!
Classic, analog warmth: beautiful sinth indeed!!
Reminds me of Charly and Buenos Aires ♥️
Matt is the Man! I am jealous beyond belief
Damn, sound sound design and mixing is just on another level!
GsE7 in perfect musical and visual tune with your beautiful adidas and eyes!
Best sounding analog synth in years! Great that they reached out to you!
OB6
@@SPAZZOID100 the OB-6 is really nice yeah, but this one does honestly sound really sweet in many ways, even with the shortcomings I consider the Moog- style ladder filter to have
Just sits there with a Jupiter 8 casually to his side. So jelly.

Aguante Argentina papaaaaaa 💪🏻
Aguante vos, che
I always acknowledged Argentina for the rock music scene... This is such a lesser known part of them, which is very ASTOUNDING!
Great demo, sounds fantastic! Like you say, it has character.
Sounds incredible. Always cool to find those lesser known newer gems. Love that they gave it an extra voice over a typical 6 voice too for 7 note extended chord pads.
The 7th voice is a very nice and original idea! 😍😍😉😉❤️❤️
11:34
How does it get 6 voices with 2 osc + 1 sub osc in an all analog synth? I haven’t reached that point in the video yet.
@@dazeja It has that Many oscillators and sub oscillators per voice. So it has seven voices of polyphony and technically 2 Osc and One Sub per Voice.
@@SessionsWithMike gotcha ,,,similar to the Prophet 10 with it's 2 osc per voice = 20 total osc.
Everything sounds good when you play it .-)
Wonderful Lyle Mays patch!
Wow - beautiful, thanks!
You make those synths sound like magic.
Классный звук!!! Отзыв такого клавишника это лучшая реклама! Все круто!
Love my e7 - Number 49 - the current favourite in the studio. Great to hear your tones Matt, can't wait for the patches. Thanks a lot.
This channel gives GAS-lighting a new meaning. Please do a bad demo once in a while to save my poor savings account! 😉
thanks Matt to make this demo, this synth sound great and look like that it is build like a tank
That synth looks amazing 😮
wow, what a powerful sound! thx for introducing this monster synth
Fantastic. As difficult as it is to get anything done these days, hats off to the company for already making their mark on the scene!
I must say I didn’t have such a sound epiphany since I listend to the Waldorf Microwave for the first time 30 years ago. This synth is „It“! This raw basic sound, unbelievable!👍
Checkout Jomox SunSyn. Imo best sounding analog synth, it has a soul.
@@Claude_van Don't get what you're talking about. The only synth I couldn't make decent string sound with was old Electribe. It needs digital effects, outboard if necessary.
@@Claude_van like Vangelis and stuff, you put on an effect and it's about the same
@@Claude_van Can do strings with Kraklii VST;
@@Claude_van But are there worst sounding ones?
If I had your skills on the keys, I’d literally never get tired of making music!
good time to learn
Yeah you would. This guy is burnt out. All he's got now is all that top-line crap, knowledge how to use it, but nothing in his sould to make anything complete.
This sounds amazing....How does this random company make a more pure sounding synth than all these other "top" brands? And for that price? Wow.

We need more Multitimbral synths on the market. Awesome video, thanks for making it and your other music.
Sounds amazing! Excellent job showing it off!
You mix so well :) great video. Argentina is lovely country, good to know they made this, I'm sure it will make them proud. nice vide of course
Love it! Both your playing, demo and the synth.
Great demo and amazing sounding synth! I really don't need it but now I want one haha
Yeah I saw Miles Away cover this a little while ago. Has a very nice sound. Almost wish I’d found it before I got the Take 5, although the Take 5 is also an awesome synth.
I'm team take 5, because of my reliance on the mod matrix... but do see the common ground
@@JorbLovesGear Yeah the mod matrix on the Take 5 is really nice. Gives it a more modern flavour.
@@JorbLovesGearI think this synth is super cool but it’s lacking in some features for the price.
Excellent walk through of these different sound features while chord riffing for us synth heads!!!
It sounds like its color!
I have to do a trip to Argentina! I have checked this one out for a while but now since you showed how it works, GAS is on maximum level!
Gran sintetizador! Gracias por este video!!!
Saludos desde argentina claro jajaja
Excelente sintetizador!!! Aguante Argentina!!!!
I like the slight amount of detuning from the voices
That is a really nice sounding synth! I love the way the filter bubbles!
Side note: Picked up your vinyl album. Absolutely love it!
Awesome, thank you!
That "When you think of Argentina" bit had me chuckling like mad for some reason. You're right, I've never thought of Argentina and thought "great synths" 🤣🤣🤣
HUGE! Fat and dreamy! Awsome synth.
Great sounds and great playing, as always!
vestito in coordinato col colore del synth, scelta raffinata.😄
your videos are so enjoyable matt♥
Wow, thanks Matt 🫶 Der Synth hat die richtige Auflösung im Wandler.💫 It's a golden sound 🤌🏻
13:45 I really loved this bit where the visuals break apart as you unleash this fat little synth! Beautiful and epic! 😍Thank you Matt!
Sounds great, Matt - for some reason (perhaps the colour) it also reminds me of the PPG, even though it’s analogue, not digital, it has a metallic flavour that’s very musical on certain patches, and I also love when the impressive filter is closed down - always a good test of an analogue synth.

Thanks Mike!
Sounds killer, such big sounds
Love this content, I watch these and lay my phone face down so I'm only listening. Always sounds amazing!
Great video. Instantly thinking "Flight of the Navigator" film when I heard this synth 😊
really incredible. definitely an easy modern competitor for anyone after a vintage synth. so much stuff to dial in, too.
Impresionante instrumento de Guido Salaya, gran trabajo ❤
The E7 has some swagger! I like it!
Awante Argentina!!! ⭐⭐⭐
Si señor bien dicho 👏
Awesome sounds...in the hands of an awesome player.!!
Oh!!!! It's back in stock??? Hell yeah!
Matt Johnson - top shelf keyboard handler/explorer.
Brillant skills and sounds 👌
Sounds incredible !
it's a great one! I played one very recently and it's realy amazing, also agree on the 70s vibe, and i thinks its sound works very well with you Matt, just grat!
Very thick and rich sounds
Colour-coded tracky top ... thats dedication 🤩
Thats a lovely sounding synth...wonderful video as ever.
Many thanks!
Yes argentina thank you Matt
why are there so many awesome things I want?? not fair
Thank you! Matt ☘
Wow! This sounds lovely!
Amazing sound and looks! What a beauty!
Love the sound of this - just ordered one!
I’m mainly a guitarist so I’m just a tweaker but nice to hear reviews from someone that can really play the things
Sounds like the early eighties all in one machine.
0:08 Amazing... not only can it play music, it even makes your body transparent!
OMG Argentina is the best in everything! Greetings from Argentina 😜
Amazing! Aguante argentina!
Your videos are always very engaging.
Order mine today….a blue one just like Matt’s..hoping some of his skill will rub off on it 😁.
Also ordered an Eventide H9 Max to go along with it.
Thanks for the well-done videos Matt. I especially like how you show a bunch of sounds/patches but I also learn a lot of useful ideas from your videos
Color matches your album vinyl that I just received! Love it : )
Yay, thank you!
Happy Birthday Matt!
Sounds really nice. Your reviews are always very good. I just like to see great playing skills and not just noodling around. Thank you Matt.
My pleasure!
Its Very very Musical sounding ,, but that just could be your playing Matt ! - I just took a look at their website and noticed they have a prototype called Uranus !!! I bet the bottom end on that things is off the chain !!!
haha maybe they should stick to letters and numbers!
