A portable looper in the "Mini Core" spirit: simple, clever, efficient
With the Hook-Drum & Loop Mini, NUX condenses the essentials of a looper + drum machine duo into a mini format designed for modern pedalboards. The approach is deliberately straightforward: few controls, but well-chosen functions to record an idea, work on a riff, or build a complete loop without getting lost in menus. It fits within the Mini Core series philosophy: maximum creativity in minimal space, ideal for lightweight setups and mobile musicians.
For practicing, composing, and playing: who is the Hook-Drum & Loop Mini for?
This pedal targets both beginner guitarists who want to improve with a "musical" metronome and experienced musicians looking for a quick tool to test arrangements or work on improvisation. The 11 rhythm styles cover various uses: rock, blues, pop, funk, and broadly anything that requires an immediate rhythmic foundation.
In the studio, it serves to capture an idea in seconds. Live, it can be a backup to launch a basic loop or an intro. On a pedalboard, it naturally sits at the end of the chain to record the full sound (effects included) and rehearse under real conditions.
