Published on 02/04/14 at 12:21Pedal noise gate
An input and an output
An effects loop with send and return
A knob threshold
A knob decay
Two modes: noise suppressor and mute
UTILIZATION
I had occas' so I downloaded a manual of various Boss pedals. Even reading it I did not quite understand what the purpose of the mute. When I enabled it, everything is silent ...
I did not quite understand what the purpose of the decay knob either. By using it I found that it reduces the threshold noise suppression, so I think there is a subtlety here to exploit.
Otherwise, it's pretty simple, just put amp and pedal in the effects loop, turn the knob to find happiness and then voila. For my part, I put the wha-wha outside the effects loop (between the guitar and NS2) have found that it was a strange noise in the loop. Then, matter of taste, but I put chorus and phaser between amp and noise gate. I put only the overdrive and preamp in the effects loop.
SOUND QUALITY
Turning the knob and presto, noise interference disappear. However, it must make a compromise between the light and saturated, but generally does not distort the sound. Only clear sound when the threshold is beyond 5 (but this is already enough for a good distortion).
Attention, it does not make miracles, do not believe we will be able to reproduce riffs cowboys from hell as dimebag darrell, but it does its job very well. Once we stop playing, no sound.
OVERALL OPINION
I hear a lot from it and then the boss NS2 is a bad pedal, the ISP decimator is much better blah. Anyway, luckily the ISP is much better given the price difference! So for the price / quality ratio, I suggest NS2 as boss noise gate economic. It does not work miracles, but does its job very well (which is more or less to remove noise) without distorting the sound, which is more than satisfactory for me.
