Boss NS-2 Noise Suppressor Pedal Review

Boss NS-2 Noise Suppressor Pedal

Have you even been standing there before your amp, axe in hand, thinking to yourself, "if only my sound was a little noisier...." Didn't think so. The problem is, some of the best pickups and effects are just plain noisy - there's really nothing you can do about that, it's just a fact of life. So you're left with two options, live with the noise, or deal with it. Here's a killer way of dealing with guitar noise. The BOSS NS-2 Noise Suppressor is an industry standard way of dealing with the pain of noisy gear. At first glance, you'll probably think the NS-2 is just a simple gate - it blocks out the sound of the noise until you hit it with a loud enough sound and the gate opens. But that's not quite it. The NS-2 uses an intelligent noise detection circuit that hones in on the sound of noise, so it won't pinch off your natural attacks. In the end you get more tone and less noise. What's not to love about the BOSS NS-2?
