Just plug a regular 9v power supply into the power in jack and hook-up power to your other effects with the power output and PCS-20A. To add to the NS-2’s flexibility Boss have added this output so you can power other effects via a PCS-20A cable. Q2: Why does the NS-2 have two power sockets?Ī: One of the power sockets is a power input, and the other is an output. It’s great for heavy and high-gain playing and is definitely worth a go if you’ve got a noise problem that’s coming from both your preamp and pedals. With some amps and pedals it works perfectly, but with others may create ground loop and impedance issues. Your mileage with this set-up may vary, and whether it works for you or not depends on your exact set-up. This way you get noise reduction on the input, plus post-preamp gain stage noise reduction too.
To give it a go just plug your guitar into the NS-2 as normal then run out of the NS-2’s send jack into your amp’s input, your amp’s FX send then runs into the NS-2 return jack and the NS-2 output then goes into your amp’s FX return.
Q1: What’s the 4 cable/x-cable method or mode, and should I use it?Ī: The four cable mod is a way that some players have found to make the most out of the NS-2 and is basically a way of putting your amp’s preamp in the NS-2’s loop. The NS-2 has been used by countless pros, all over the world, since its original release way back in 1987, and just keeps consistently getting the job done, perfectly. Plus, it’s a Boss, and if there’s one point in your signal chain that you need reliability, it’s the point that’s meant to keep everything else in check. You can run it directly in-line with just the input/output jacks, or put different effects in the NS-2’s loop, so the noise from these pedals is tamed separately. With it’s input/output and send/return jacks it’s basically a Swiss army knife noise gate.
And Boss’s proprietary technology means the NS-2 works perfectly without affecting your core guitar tone.īest of all, it’s designed to be a super flexible pedal with a load of different modes and ways to use it. If you're tired of annoying noise and hum, the NS-2 is the answer and features Boss' unique noise detection circuit. The Boss NS-2 Noise Suppressor is the perfect pedal if you’re looking to quieten down a noisy set-up.
