From Traditional Stomp to Modern "Multi-Percussion" Format
The stomp box is a classic among folk, blues, and singer-songwriter guitarists: a "box" to tap with the foot to keep time when playing solo. The Horse Kick Pro takes this simple and effective idea further with digital percussion samples, allowing you to switch from a solid kick drum foundation to airier textures (cabasa, tambourine) depending on the song. Its solid mahogany enclosure contributes to an organic look and an "instrument-like" feel underfoot, while maintaining a decidedly plug-and-play approach.
Who Is It For, and Which Styles?
The Horse Kick Pro is aimed at all musicians wanting to enrich solo playing: acoustic guitarists, ukulele players, amplified harmonica players, accordionists, or one-man bands using loopers. It excels in folk, acoustic pop, indie, blues, and light rock, whenever a steady beat is needed to "hold" the audience without overloading the setup.
In concert settings, it advantageously replaces a cajon to carry and fits easily on a small pedalboard. In studio, it can provide an organic and stable pulse, then be doubled or guide a vocal/guitar take. For busking (street performance), its ergonomics and dynamic response allow building a lively accompaniment, far from a simple metronome click.

I have barely used it (one rehearsal and one concert), but it is light, obviously solid, good grip on the ground, the sounds are excellent and impressive (you can adjust the volume and the pedal takes into account the intensity of the stroke) and it will change the life of my guitar/voice duo.

Very good stompbox! I use it to play solo coupled with a loop, it does its job very well, in addition to several sounds very practical.
The only small downside: its sensitivity. You have to adjust the volume well because it is not hypersensitive to touchAutomatically translated

The sounds offered are good. The big plus of this Dropbox is the possibility of plugging the guitar into tri-bypass into the stomp and exiting with a single cable to the amp. Therefore, only one channel of the amp or table is used.

Fantastic stomp box, versatile thanks to its 5 sounds, immediate and very simple to use. I use it in duo and in unplagged trio, it changes the mood of the pieces in an exceptional way. All you have to do is practice coordination

A selector provides access to 5 samples: cajon bass, kick, bell, cabasa, and tambourine. The low sounds can support a pulse, while the bright options add a lighter texture.
Does the stomp box respond to the foot strike strength?
Velocity sensitivity varies the attack and level according to the intensity of the strike. Accents and softer hits can thus be incorporated without changing the settings.

The required power supply is 9 V, via a 9 V battery or a mains adapter. The consumption is about 100 mA.
Is this stomp box suitable for a guitar-vocal setup with a looper?
Its pedal format and cajon bass or kick sounds make it possible to lay down a pulse in solo accompaniment. The enclosure is made of solid mahogany. It is especially intended for guitarists, ukulele players, and one-man bands using a looper.
