As drawn, Q7's emitter current is approximately Q7's hFE (DC current gain) times the current in R6, so is badly controlled. If hFE is high enough, Q7 is saturated and you have zero gain.
Insert a 270-ohm resistor (paralleled with a 100-nF capacitor) between the emitter of Q7 and ground. Q7's base voltage now controls Q7's emitter current and hence Q7's transconductance Gm. Do you see why this is true?
Move the top end of R6 from 12Vdc to a variable voltage source Vagc. With Vagc=12V, you have full gain. As you reduce Vagc, Q7's Gm drops, reducing the gain. Do you see why?
