@@ThePedalGuy It's my pleasure! You have _so much_ valuable content that I'm now following you on all your social media accounts. Thanks for all you do to inform and educate us about all these great products! ♥♥♥
I bought the digitech trio plus because of your videos. And now this.. the drum tones are amazing in this compared to the trio but the trio seems to offer more. Well see..
I have the Trio but am looking for a simple drum & loop pedal as well. The Trio works well just for me on my own, but for our duo, we need some decent isolated drums with a few looped guitar parts. Can you isolate the drums from the Trio (ie: remove the bass track)? I haven't figured that out, if its possible
My board is turning into a NUX-fest! Masamune, Monterey, Morningstar (say that 3 times fast), Atlantic, Solid Studio - and probably, soon - this. Oyyy veyyy
One question before I pull the trigger on this thing: any effects pedals (boost/drive/mods/delay etc) that I run into the JTC if I'm running it last (or near the end of my pedalboard, maybe before my IR loader if I'm going direct) - those effects will not alter the drums sounds, right? It seems like a noob question but I want to make sure I'm 100% before I actually get it. Cheers, always appreciate your demos and replies to my annoying comments & questions :)
Hi Matt. No, those FX will not affect the drums. Anything after the JTC Pro will affect the drums, so this pedal should ideally be put in place at the end of the signal chain.
Thanks for the helpful info. Still a bit confused how I get from overdubbing mode back to just looping a new track. Didn’t see anything else pressed in addition to the left stomp button. Thanks!
Thanks for the detailed review! Some questions: [1] Does the drum beat also get saved in the wave file if wanted (ie, if the wav file is played on anther deice then the is drum is there)? I have Digitech Jamman Solo XT and it doesn't. [2] If not that, then will it atleast switch to the same drum beat and tempo when I recalled a saved track, even if the drum beat currently is on a differnt beat and tempo? [3] Does it have an SD card for additional storage? Look forward to part-2, might just sell Jamman and go for this!
BA Gorimus hi. Thanks for the questions. I will need to ping NuX on a couple of these items. I can tell you that there’s no sd card but there is plenty of on board memory and a USB port to transfer your loops to a different looper if you’d like. And if you look at our playlist you’ll see part 2 of this video series. Have a good one!
can you use the external footswitch to go from for example Recorded LOOP #1 to Recorded LOOP #2 and back again without stopping the Music like the smaller NUX LOOPCore units ? (...by this I mean a Verse Recorded to Loop #1 & a Chorus Recorded to Loop #2 ... and cycle between them at will ~ great for LIVE Playing application )
Auto recording mode never detects a signal so it never starts recording. Normal recording mode works perfectly fine. Please help. I've been waiting to hear from customer support for weeks now.
Is there a way to extend recording time on 1 memory bank, other than lowering the BPM? Seems like the loops are limited to 4 bars, so you just can't record different parts in 1 take, like an intro, verse and chorus. I understand from the manual that you can record to different memory banks and use an external footswitch to toggle between loops to create a song structure. If I had known this limitation I wouldn't have bought it. Other than that it is a nice and affordable little gimmick to play with, if you like jamming to the same short loop over and over again.
Excellent review (both videos). I recently tried to update the firmware on a Mac and then on a PC. (See Instruction Manual "Update the JTC drum&loop pro". ) Steps 1 and 2: On the Mac (Catalina) the NUX got immediately disconnected every time I tried. On the PC, I could see the NUX folder displayed in Windows 10, but UP was no longer showing on the screen of the NUX. UC was showing instead. (What is UC?) Step 4: Mentions a "firmware file". I looked on the NUX site under "Support". There is no firmware file. Does this mean it has never been updated? Where else is the firmware file going to come from? Steps 5 and 6: Never made it this far. Have you tried? Thanks - G
Hi. Thanks for the feedback and question. When you download the firmware update, there is a file in that folder which the file you're looking for. As for connectivity issues with Mac I can't help there as I'm working on Windows. Not sure what the UC stands for. But if you send me a mail at info@thepedalguy.com I will see if we can help get your questions answered.
It seems to me this NU-X Pedal comes with Software that allows you to Take a Backing track and IMPORT it to the JTC PRO. the software will convert your Backing Track from WAV , M4a (iTunes), or any other format , to NU-X format. This is great news , the now discontinued JAMMAN series was really lacking in any kind of "modern" software. I noticed this issue with other devices, such as KORG/ROLAND Digital Multi Track machines, you have to convert from the KORG File type to WAV by transfering from the Multi track unit to your computer, the Korg would convert the file type on Export, so you could then mix it down in your DAW. Similar principle, good to see NU-X has pulled out of the stone age, and has worthy Software, that will virtually replace the now officially "DISCONTINUED" Jamman series
If I connect an external footswitch and use it to switch between memory banks on the fly with each memory banks having the different parts of a song(verse-chorus-bridge), do you think it will be possible? Or there would be a bit of a gap in between those memory banks? I know the Nux Loopcore Dlx can do this.
Thanks for the question. I would say the main difference is that the Loop Core Dlx includes the external footswitch, which is not the case with this pedal. The routing options on the JTC Pro are insane. Aside from that, this is a pretty standout choice.
I bought this pedal after seeing this but my computer didn't recognise it (i also tried it on the other computers, still didn't work) so i sent it back and got a new one. Now this one also isn't working. My computer doesn't see it. Edit: After i tried with another cable (Besides 3 others - all micro b) it finally worked. The other cables were working normally but not with the NDL-5.
@@ThePedalGuy Obviously i'm not gonna delete this comment so it can help others having the same issue. I literally checked everything on internet i mean by everything, "EVERYTHING!" (like Stansfield in Leon) lol.
You can connect the optional NUX NMP-2 control footswitch into this jack for switching phrase memories. Its seamless switching allows you to arrange different verses and choruses and play the whole song!
I find that they are pretty different actually. I look at the JTC Pro as more of a jamming pedal. The Loop Core is a bit more of a songwriting pedal. Nevertheless they will both get you to roughly the same destination.
What an amazing pedal! Nux are always seriously affordable, this is right up my alley. Can't wait for part 2, nice one mate. 🖤
Tight Budget Musician thank you very much for the kind words!
Thank you, really excellent play by play. Love this little affordable pedal, and the drums really do sound great.
Thanks
Great demo!
Hoped to learn more about using the NMP-2 footswitch to combine and transition between verses(in a simple song progression).Thanks.
Noted!
Thanks for the demo of my favorite looper/rhythm pedal!
Fred Chapman you’re welcome. And thanks for watching.

@@mattgilbert7347 I dont think you "remove" them. You just turn their volumes down if you dont want to hear them
Might be time to sell that old Boss RC-2...
Or - keep it and have a couple of loopers. Hmm...

My question as well, thank you!
Nice revealing piece, just one answer: Can one overdubs with different levels of volume? Like a studio mixing.
Thanks. Unfortunately it doesn’t have that ability. You can just use the volume knob on your guitar to create the layers.

Is there a time limit to how long the 1st loop can be...as before ive had ones that are like 90 seconds...and i want a longer option .any ideas
What’s the longest a track can be? Competitors have a 4 min limit for backing
Up to 6 hours of record time.
can you use the external footswitch to go from for example Recorded LOOP #1 to Recorded LOOP #2 and back again without stopping the Music like the smaller NUX LOOPCore units ?

Hi frenth .i have only25 beat there is a problem?.it say 40
Can I use external switch to toggle between drum pattern or backing track
Want to know more about recoarding backtracts
seem like nobody is paying the attention that feature deserves
Hello, pedal guy! Is it possible to have stereo input for this pedal using TRS cable?
No, it's a mono input.
@@ThePedalGuy thanks!
When I go in shuffle mode I struggle to get back to the other 25 drum beats, any suggestions ?
Is there a train beat drum pattern for Rockabilly and Rock'n Roll?
Let me check today

Great! Thank you
If I connect an external footswitch and use it to switch between memory banks on the fly with each memory banks having the different parts of a song(verse-chorus-bridge), do you think it will be possible? Or there would be a bit of a gap in between those memory banks? I know the Nux Loopcore Dlx can do this.
Hi. You can connect the NuX NMP-2 to switch between memory locations seamlessly.
Hey guys, hello everyone. which one ? why ?
Boss Loop RC-3 VS NUX Jtc Drum& Loop ?
What besides the number of memory slots does this have that the nux looper delauxe doesn't have?
Thanks for the question. I would say the main difference is that the Loop Core Dlx includes the external footswitch, which is not the case with this pedal. The routing options on the JTC Pro are insane. Aside from that, this is a pretty standout choice.
Can you put your recorded rhythm tracks(guitar, bass) through a powered speaker? Or can you only send the drums to a different speaker?
Cool... but no midi time code:(
StringGene yup. Afraid not. I will suggest it though.

Hi. Wish I had an answer on this one. If you send me a mail I'll be happy to forward to NuX.

Are the saved loops persistent if you unplug the pedal and plug it back in?
As long as you save the song on the pedal. There are 256 memory locations on the pedal.
@@ThePedalGuy - Freaking awesome. I already have the pedal, just haven't had time to mess around with it yet. That'll change very shortly.
In combination with the BOSS SY-1 Synth pedal I will soon have, the possibilities are endless!!!
i have bought this, but i dont manage to take it on. can you pleae help med?
I'm not sure what you mean.
What benifit I get by using additional foot switch?
You can connect the optional NUX NMP-2 control footswitch into this jack for switching phrase memories. Its seamless switching allows you to arrange different verses and choruses and play the whole song!
How can i play 3/4 beat?
is there a way to stop the loop with just one kick not twice?
Not that I'm aware of. That's pretty standard looper functionality.
@@ThePedalGuy Thanks👍
Is this a step up from the NUX Core looper? Thanks
I find that they are pretty different actually. I look at the JTC Pro as more of a jamming pedal. The Loop Core is a bit more of a songwriting pedal. Nevertheless they will both get you to roughly the same destination.
