Nu-X Loop Core vs Loop Core Deluxe - drum comparison
Вставка
- Опубліковано 27 сер 2024
- Just a quick comparison between the drum samples in these two versions of the Loop Core from Nu-X.
The Deluxe version of this - already rather excellent - clone of the RC-3, features 24 bit audio quality over its predecessor's 16 bit processor, so the drums sound noticeably better. It also has more recording time (8 hrs!) and twice as many drum tracks to jam along to!
Skip to 6:46 for the direct, side-by-side comparisons to hear how the original samples have been updated.
If you want to hear a comparison of the actual recording quality of these two, check out the second part to this video, here:

Anybody who has used a looper understands that cymbals are a no-no in a loop because they get on your nerves after a few beats and make the loop sound fake, no matter what bit rate they boast. I don’t understand what the programmers of Nux are smoking when they come out with such garbage loops. I have a super cheap “Zoom G1x four” guitar pedal with drums and so far it’s still the best tool for my open mike performances.
I like the old one lol to much cymbal on the new one!
I've got a Loop Core, but the Deluxe drums and 24 bit is definitely better. Double the price better for what I use it for? No, the Deluxe is still a huge saving over the BOSS RC-3.
Bro the drums are good if you play latin jazz and swing or is just for Rock music?
@@musicazen8558 Watch these and make up your own mind.
Loop Core has 20 patterns. ua-cam.com/video/_plebxRsLC0/v-deo.html
Loop Core Deluxe has 40.

Latin starts at #29 5min 04s. This demo goes to #30 and then for some reason starts renumbering from #1 again *but* the next ten patterns are not the same as the initial ten. I don't have the Deluxe, so don't know the reason (technical?) he's presented it that way.
Can you use the foot switch with the yellow pedal?
I've never tried it, tbh! It does have a CTRL input though, so I assume you can.
Hi! Are you running these through a *guitar* amp, or is it something more hi-fi? The Deluxe versions seem to sound harsher, but I'm just wondering if that's the amp not liking the extra top end etc.
Thank you!
Hi. I'm always using my pedals into my Boss Katana Artist on the clean channel. The harshness you're hearing is likely my mic setup, as it's not really the best.
I'm hoping to improve the overall quality of my videos as time goes on. 🙂
Thanks for watching!
Yeah, they're very useful things to have!
Okay, if i had to choose, I'll take the original. I understand the sound quality on a looper like this will be okay at best. However,the symbols on the Deluxe version are obnoxious.
No thanks. 😊😊
Hello, great data, and by the way I have one, with the intention of passing loops to it via PC, the manual says that it accepts 24b, 44.1khz files... so I don't take the mp3s, nor the similar wavs... you did that job ever? and where to get loops of that quality? you have to do it thanks in advance and success!
Hi, thanks for watching! Glad you liked it. 😊
No, I'm afraid I've never tried doing that. Sorry I can't be any help! 😔
the wav files need the right format ... ( besides bit rate and kHz one more - have forgotten what it was ...) just put a recorded file into Audacity and on the left you can compare the given rates... better as this, there is a software converter at NUX for download (support tab) which will convert your files to the right format
Hello, I am interesting in a pedal loop, I saw this pedal and I like it because has many options. I don't want it for a guitar, it is for synthesizes, so I only want to import long wavs to the pedal and play it!!! So, do you know how long time is possible to import a wav, will be possible a wav of 10 minutes for example? Thank you......... for the Nux loop core please.
I am interesting in the pedal nux loop core
Hi! Thanks for your question.
The Loop Core has 6 hours of recording time available. I've never imported a file onto it, personally. However, I'm pretty sure a 10 minute wav file would be fine!
@@PedalExperiments I saw in the manual you can rec or import a wav as long you want while it has memory capacity!!!
Perfect! Sounds like this is the pedal for you! 😀
"Jtc drum and loop" have fine tempo adjust
I have a NUX Core Looper Deluxe being delivered tomorrow... excited for it. Wanted to get a Boss RC-10R but you can't add drums after the fact. Also every single drum sound they have will have a crash cymbal on beat 1 of the loop whether it's 12 bars, 8, 4 or even 1 (super annoying). This was half the price and you can add drums after and even change tempo afterwards.
Yeah, I love being able to control the drums independent of the recorded loop. It's very easy to use!
@@PedalExperiments So... just got mine today. Totally disappointed that you cannot go from recording one loop into recording another if you want to save the first loop. For example record and save verse, then move on to chorus. This is because it is impossible to save without completely stopping the loop.
They have as a feature where you can go from one loop to another and it'll switch at juts the right moment and you don't miss a beat. This is perfect for different sections of a song... but only if you've already created and saved them prior. That's not interesting to watch... you might as well just play an mp3 from your phone.
@@FunkyELF So you can't for instance play 4 loops without stopping between in one directory and then save them afterwards? Will the previous loop get deleted if you dub another over it?
Is there difference in functionality??
Not really. Most of the updates are internal, such as the processing power and stuff.
Although, the external, dual footswitch that the Deluxe version comes with is definitely a noticeable improvement in the practical functionality of the pedal, over the previous version.

@@zombielandakausa7468 ohw.
.. same here for me then xD
The deluxe sounds much better. The original sounds like a digitech from 15 years ago.
Agreed!
Check out the second part to this video, comparing the quality of the looping. The differences aren't quite as obvious as with the drum tracks, but there is a slight improvement.
@@PedalExperiments Thanks for the comparison video and great suggestion. I'm in the market for pedal that makes drum sounds and i had no idea that 24 bit sounded so much better than 16 bit.
The RP90 right?
Heavy throwback vibes to my digi rp90 and the zoom rhythmtrak
I had Nux loop core, sold it bought Deluxe. Both have Rhythm volume jump issue! Do you also have this problem? I mean if you don't have a proper FX Loop on your amp. Rhythm volume is too high even at low volume. Impossible to jam at lower volumes. Also at the beginning it behaves like a on off switch, no smooth volume control... (0 to 100). Only for Rhythm. Loop volume works correctly.
I reached to Nux. They always respond and no second email. What a garbage support. I will never buy again from them...
Yeah, there isn't much ramp-up going from 0 - 1 on the drum volume. But it's not too drastic for me, personally. If I need to play very quietly, I always switch to headphones anyway.
The sound quality on the old one is crap...
Yeah, it's not great. 😒
The cymbals on the deluxe are so harsh. They make ears bleed and WAY too loud. The drums sound much better on the deluxe but the I couldn't listen to those cymbals. Thanks for the review made the decision easy, ordering the the yellow one now.
True Cymbals sound harsh
lol the drums sound terrible on either unit! - I think I'll stick with Toon Tracks and Addictive Drums
Lets see how the looper is in your other video :)
Yeah, they're not the best. I'll probably upgrade my looper one day, when I find one that has good drums but retains the independent volume knobs for the loop and rythym levels.
not impressed with drum loops -
Yeah, they're not the best. They're a bit "late-90's Casio keyboard".
Hopefully, they'll bring out an updated version with better drums at some point!
@@PedalExperiments the best in my opinion for drum loops still the digitech trio and beat buddy
Oh yeah, I definitely agree.
horrible !!! the "deluxe" one...
maybe the "to mixer" output would have helped.
