Sampled Programmability

While the original Super Quartet was a preset machine, armed with the right SysEx tools and software, you could mangle the internal sounds. This allowed for the presets to be repurposed to suit production, rather than dictating it. This role reversal is where the Super-7 scores high, though do note the context. UVI instruments are sample-based and not modelled. Consequently, Super-7 shows an extensive set of pros and cons; the sound you hear is the real-deal, straight from an original machine, so you cannot argue whether it sounds like an original or notl! UVI have extensive skills in this arena, with some of the best sounding softsynth facsimiles around. However, they have also taken matters to the next level, with dual envelope control, real-time arpeggiations, effects and more. This means you have a large amount of programmability, albeit complete with a filter which is functional, rather than modelled, but it does do a highly convincing job.
