5.0 out of 5 starsPerfect!
By Matt32 on April 30, 2011

This is a Boss product, which means you are getting a high quality stompbox that is worth every penny. You also have great customer service, and an item which will always hold a high resale value. I have owned TONS of Boss pedals and never disliked any of them. They have always performed up to my expectations.

Now for the NS-2. This is my 2nd one to own and let me tell you, this is an ultimate problem solver. If you have a noisy effects loop, this pedal is equipped to clean that right up. If you need something to mute your signal with the stomp of a foot, this is it. If you are having a lot of noise problems, this is it. Loads of big names use this pedal, one in particular that has always come to my mind is Hatebreed, a band that relies on massive amounts of gain that would probably otherwise be a screaming mess in between breaks in the guitar riffs. But I've seen them, I've seen tons of bands using this pedal and none of them have had noise issues live.

The NS-2 is my last line of defense in my chain. I have a noise gate on my processor, then I go to my rack gear, then the NS-2, then amp. I used to have problems with feedback, especially in small venues and would have to crank the noise gate out on my processor thus killing my tone, sustain, and just destroying my sound. I tried the Decimator by ISP but same problem, constantly having to re-adjust and dime it out and kill my tone. Now the noise gate on my processor is set LOW and the NS-2 is set with the threshold at a little over mid way and the decay control set at about 3 quarters, for a more natural "fade out" effect when I stop playing. That way you don't have an abrupt stop in your sound. You can also switch the pedal over to a MUTE feature so that you can mute your signal.Read more ›

2.0 out of 5 starsNo! Stop buying this!
By 2Dogs1Bowl on November 5, 2013
I'm a longtime Boss fan, I have and love several of their pedals. The Chorus Ensemble, several of their OD & Distortion pedals, the DD-7 Delay, and a few others I rotate in on rare occasion. If I could only choose pedals from one company it would definitely be from Boss. I even like how they feel and look.

WITH THAT SAID, there is no longer any reason to buy this particular pedal new. At its price I highly recommend spending a little more on an ISP Decimator II or even the original Decimator. It doesn't siphon off tone like this Boss pedal does, and is much tighter as a downward expander/noise cutter.

First test: One of my guitars is a Warmoth Strat, with a fairly buzzy set of Texas Special single coil pickups. Run it through an OD or two and it's BZZZZZ. Perfect testbed. No contest, the ISP cleaned it all up while NS-2 was just a mediocre gate.

Second test: Metal chug test on a Schecter with EMGs through a Super Distortion through a Mega Distortion on full blast. LOL, not close. ISP kills it.

I know a lot of pedals and music gear are subjective, and everybody thinks their thing is the best, but I'm telling you the ISP is so much better. To the point where I would flat-out disbelieve anyone who says they tried them both and still liked the Boss better. You might find this used for $40 (significantly less than what used Decimator I pedals go for) and that would make sense I guess.

It's had a good run for me and just about everyone else, but this is 1995 tech and it shows. Please at least compare the two at a Guitar Center for yourself before pulling the trigger. Thank me later.

4.0 out of 5 starsI Frequency Analyzed Mine, Here Are the Results...
By Gordon Tubbs on February 11, 2014
Verified Purchase
When the Threshold was set to max, the frequency picture was equal to that of a low pass filter being set at 10kHz with a -12db curve. Before you yell "this kills my tone", LPFs actually tighten up and improve the audible mid to upper-midrange frequencies (1~8kHz). Guitars tend to shine in the 500~5kHz range, which makes sense because most (nearly all) guitar speakers are designed with a frequency response of 500Hz~5kHz... so I say all that to say this: the Boss NS-2's apparent LPF is perfectly acceptable (if not desirable) if you're a smart EQ-minded guitarist and know 10kHz and above doesn't really make a difference in the magic of your tone, especially if you're playing the loud and aggressive type of music that noise suppressors are required for.

BOTTOM LINE: If you want a smart Noise Suppressor, then the Boss NS-2 is good to go.

4.0 out of 5 starsWorks As Advertised!
By Amazon Customer on July 11, 2013
Verified Purchase
This is the first noise suppressor I've ever owned/used. I recently purchased a Marshall JVM 410C. Wonderful amp with plenty of hi-gain channels. A little too much extra noise and squeal on the hi-gain channels on an otherwise awesome amp. Enter the Boss NS-2. I have 5 effects running through the front of the JVM, instead of the effects loop. The only effects I leave out of the loop is the Boss DD-7 Delay (they recommended not to put in the loop) and my Morley Mark Tremonti Wah.
The NS-2 has quieted the squeals without affecting my tone. I don't lose sustain or controlled feedback and the notes do not cut off abruptly. Just put my hand over the strings and instant quiet.
Highly recommended for anyone in need of taming a hi-gain amp!

5.0 out of 5 starsGot gain pedals, noisy effects or a persistant single-coil Fender hum? then you need one of these
By Obsidian on March 27, 2014
Verified Purchase
I like my Fender Stratocaster and I like the way it sounds through a Blues Driver, Power Stack or a Big Muff Pi pedal and other gain-heavy effects. But with higher gain, these pedals really add to the already noisy nature of the single-coil pick ups on that instrument. This pedal helps get that under control.

As mentioned by others and in the Q&A this isn't a noise reducer, it's not some filtered hum reduction, it's a gate that shuts off the signal at a certain threshold. When you're not strumming any notes, it's pointless to hear that static hum from your speakers. But that static hum is part of what gives your guitar the color of sound it has. Noise has it's place, and when it's put together correctly we call it music. Drowning out the vocalist during their solo isn't one of those places. Dulling your drummers solo with constant static won't get you any points with the band or the crowd. It's worth noting for the sound-novices that this will work against sustain pedals if you chain them incorrectly, or if you don't shut this (true bypass) pedal off.

This pedal is a must-have for noisy pickups. Let the rest of the band be heard over the electric drive of your guitar and effects during quieter songs or parts of songs. Set it up once and forget about it, just have it on all the time and it works wonderfully.
