- In this video I teach 3 ways to effectively use a Noise Suppressor pedal, using the omnipresent(hehe) BOSS NS-2, in varying situations of pedals and amplifiers.
**VIDEO MARKERS for various noise situations:
Situation 1: No amp FX Loop, guitar plugged straight in (00:17)
Situation 2: No amp FX Loop, using an overdrive for gain. (01:20)
Situation 3: Onboard amp FX loop, using amp's gain (02:43)

This still the best explanation on UA-cam of how to use the NS-2. Anytime somebody asks me how to set theirs up, I just send them here.
Watched this video about 10 times because I always forget how to do this. Thanks for making it.
Me too.... I run reverb and delay and a few other effects thru my effects loop on my 5150iii I wonder how this would affect those?🤔🤔🤔
B Floyd run your gate before your modulation effects (reverb,chorus,flanger,etc.)
Very helpful and straight forward.
Yup
finnaly. someone that can explain the effects loop in simple terms .
thank you
Johnny Dollar thank you for the kind words. Cheers from India
1) For those that don't know, Boss pedals are buffered so that there is no tone sucking, which is nice.
2) The main reason for the "loop" built into this pedal is that the input section of the pedal circuit senses the original input, then compares it to what is going out of the output jack on the pedal. The NS2 attenuates the noise accordingly. This helps avoid over attenuation (or tone sucking).
Thanks for the info. If one does want to check on the tone to be safe, is it simply a matter of clicking the pedal off or would it have to be completely unwired and removed from the loop to check for tonal changes?
I found adjusting the 2 knobs correctly made my sound great without playing with more cords
Thank you my guy for doing every possible step and where you can plug it in I had questions you answered them through an observable experience. Ty
Awesome video! Most people on YT aren't showing method/situation 2 of your video and I think that's very useful for amps with no fx loop.
I have those same Planet Waves cables, bought about 14 years ago and never had an issue. Solid choice
Thank you. I needed method 2 and went through 3 or 4 other videos before finding this. Much appreciated!
Very good video. No more searching in Threads. You nailed it in one video. Thank you!
Just got a tube amp and this is exactly the answer I was looking for!! Thanks!
You’re one of the few guys on here who knows what they are doing. Subscribed.
Great video Subu !
The best explanation of this pedal. Tanks.
Thank you so much :)
Excellent explanation, thanks!
This is THE best video on how to use this pedal effectively, you explained it so well, even I can understand how to use it. Thank You so much, now off to go get me a boss ns-2.
Thank you so much for the kind words David, and all the best. Do let me know if you need some follow up help.
This was great!!! Thanks for sharing my friend!!!
Thank you. You covered this much better then other videos.
Thank you.
Great video! Thank you!
Thank You for a "Great" Video my friend. Your time and efforts are appreciated very much. I have a PRS Sonzera 50W Combo (which I love) but the "Hum" was a bit loud with 8 pedals (now 9 with the NS-2). The way you have it connected works great with your setup. It's my 1st Noise Suppressor so I wasn't quite sure of the correct way to do it. Thank You again...
Glad I could be of assistance :) Cheers from India!
Thanks for this helpful video!
Great video and info, thanks!
I've been looking everywhere for this video. The most informative with the least BS
Thanks for making had pedal for about 20 years lost manual
Great content, great humor. Thanks!
Basic and clean video.Thanks
Very good! Thanks! Muito obrigado!
This video was a godsend mate
Thanks 🙏
Veeeery well explanation! Thanks
Much help.
Thanks bro 👍🏽
🙏 thank you Sir ! Very helpful
Nice demonstration...!!
Thanks, a great video, sharp & clear. Will try the 3rd method 👍👍😁
Thank you a lot dude,greatly explained
Really good Noise gate tutorial!
Loved the Rob Chapman greetings
Super helpful, thanks!
Well explained, thanks 👍🏻
THANK YOU ! you helped me out big time.
Thanks man. Finally someone.
Perfect explanation, and perfect Spanish pronuntiation!!. Dos perfects in one message ;)
Thank you for the explanation, it is useful for a newbie in using noise reductors like me :)
Greetings from Spain.
Carlos Esgueva thank you man. I am glad i could help you out!! :) hello from India.
Thanks a lot :) Was thinking of getting a noise gate soon !
best video to learn about this
This is really helpful for the newbie
EXCELLENT VIDEO
great video! well explained.
Thanks for the valuable info to help a noisy amp appreciate it my friend
Great video - saved me buying two gates! That seems to be a good idea if your amp is feeding back noise in the preamp before the fx loop, but mine probably isn't gonna be doing that... fingers crossed....
This will come in handy as my amp has an effects loop. Thanks a lot.
Informative video - cheers
Great video ! Thanks
Very good video thank you bro!!!
i think only you and one other person have uploaded a video showing the correct way to set up a noise gate pedal. bravo subu!
Thank you so much man. Always glad to share 🙂
Thank you, very helpful
Great video, thanks!
Yes, I feel that a noise suppressor with an effects loop is a big deal. In addition battery is also vital in some cases. There are not many that have both features. The battery deal I love as it does not take up one of my power supplies. Good ob.
Thanks very much! Very nice video, helps me a lot.
Great video!
Awesome - thanks man
Thank you so much!
Excellent!!!!!
zaebis', chetko! "spasibo" from Russua
Great video man, thanks a lot for this! Cheers!
that was usefull for 100%.
good video.
thnx dude
+Lex Ftc always welcome and cheers from india :)
Thank you!!
Thank goodness someone has correctly demonstrated/described situation two at 1:50 👍. Just looked at the Boss Manual which to be fair does show this type of situation, but it depicts a Tuner and Compressor in the loop. The manual should show an OD/DIST pedal in the loop; as far as I know, tuners are not known for creating noise 🤔.
Thanks!! 🙂...
Also, They really did demo it that way in the manual? Oh dear. 😬
Thank you Subu
:) Glad you like it.....
Excellent explanation thank you Subu Nomo
Thank you :) cheers from india
+Kh2o you are welcome :)
Excellent video dude. Much more helpful than most. Have you made any videos on pedal board set up?
Thanks!
Thanks Subbed I love your answer about tone suckle
I love you man ,,, great video ... I'm looking to do some quieting down on the amp & strat ,,, you know the deal ... you give me all three solid methods ,,, you got the best video on this ... thanks 👍👍👍👍. D
Thank you so much dude! :)
This was very helpful. Thanks. Subbed.
+CoffeeDrinker71 thank you so much. Cheers from india and please dont hesitate to suggest video ideas or if there is something you need to learn. Maybe i can help :)
I just picked up a used NS-2 on eBay based on this. I'm anxious to try it out! :)
+CoffeeDrinker71 so glad i could be of assistance :) cheers from india
Dude thank you!!
Great video! Well presented. Do you have one showing how to adjust the gate?
Thank you!
Hi. very good video. Many musicians use a TS800 to boost the distortion of our amp (in my case Metal) and that produces a lot of noise. Maybe you should add something like that, in my case I do something similar to the third example that you give, the only difference is that I connect the TS808 to the input of the NS2 and it works quite well. saludos desde Chile
Bro good video. Noises suppressor will help whit a ground loop on my amp.
Good explanation, got a Subscribe
Thank you Subu. Nice tutorial. More tutorial videos...:D
Thanks a lot, man! I love ya!
Hello Subu Nomo,
just got one of these very cheap on ebay (had no noise problem actually, but it was like 30€ shipping included). Thanks for teaching me how to use it! Greetings from germany
+The Defenestrator i am so glad i could be of help man. Also, Germany is awesome!
Muhammad Haryandi tuner first, then into noise gate
The Defenestrator the signal will still be undisturbed for exact tuning?
Muhammad Haryandi Noise doesn't affect the Note you are playing in terms of tuning. Anyways if you place the tuner after the noisegate it might be annoying since the gate will cut your notes sustain and make it much more complicated to tune your guitar/bass.
I have the same Maxxon was super noisey especially with my hot pickups but yeah man this shit saved my ass for live situations. THANK YOU@!
+Doug Cleary i am glad i could help you out. Noise can get real annoying.
thanks for the video. in the end, if i have an Amp with effects loop, would you prefer to use it or use loop of the ns2 with the overdrive? which methode gives less noise? thanks
Hey love ya man great video.
Thank you :)
really thanks , i have a good day now
Welcome man. Glad to be of help.
The loop on the NS-2 creates a circuit within itself where the objects placed inside it are expanded. The NS-2 reads the guitar signal at the input and gates at the output using the 4 wire method. It is also a stomp box pedal with limitations, I’ve experienced problems isolating my heads preamp in combination with an over drive and compressor (keely pro into moog mf drive into amp isolating with ns-2).
The 4 wire meathod is great for isolating something like a gain stage before an amp if you’re running something else in between that and the amp.
It’s very hard to find a proper explanation of how the NS-2 loop actually works, hope this helped some people who wanted to know a little more in depth of the operation of it.
As a side note there is a circuit within the NS-2 which filters noise from sound which can only be accessed in the loop so that is the real benefit of using it on top of being able to use a single gate for an isolated circuit instead of one at the front and one at the rear like some guys tend to do.................... for some reason.
in effect the NS2 becomes an effects loop for amps without effects loops.
great video....how about a 4th scenario; what is the configuration when you have an Fx loop on your amp, and you are using the NS2 with a distortion pedal? thanks!
Gladly hit subscribe after that Mike Tyson Joke. Thanks for the info and the laugh dude
thanks man. Glad to know you enjoyed the vid :)
Hah finally someone who uses it like this! Awesome video! Maybe you should mention that time based effects like loopers, as well as delays and reverbs have to be placed after the whole noise reduction thing (between the NS-2s output and the effects return/poweramp) to avoid cutting off your nice delay and reverb trails :-)
+Chris S. Yes that is a good suggestion.. my bad i didnt mention it and focused only on the amp and drive pedal noise. :) time based stuff after noise reduction.
But what if your noisy pedal IS a delay?
ill try this!
if its a delay, put the noise reduction after it. if the delay is the first of your modulation efects, you will be fine.
Nice.. how about if your amp doesn't have effect loop where do I place my delay, reverbs etc. thanks
Wow thank you
Thanks for the helpful vid. Im using two Suhr pedals (Shiba drive and Riot) so I will put them in Noise gate's loop. However I'm also using a drive directly from my Fender Hot Rod amp for more crunchy blues tones. Is there any hocus pocus to combine option 2 and 3?:)
Ive used Rocktron, Isp & Boss .... This time when I bought a noise gate or Reducer as some will say ......... I spent 35.00 and bout a Celine China made pedal off amazon. Works great ...... serious. It comes down to spend 35 or 100 for pretty much same results.
he definitely knows how to set up that pedal. this is so helpful. Thanks a lot !!!AND recently I bought cheap noise gate which have two knobs ( output & sensitivity) and two jacks (input & output)here are the questions :1. where would you put the pedal ( my amp has FX loop)2. My MXR yjm308 booster is too noise when it engages(that's the reson I bought) should I put it after the 308?Thanks a ton Nomo. really appreciate it
Este chico lo explico muy bien
For no fx loop + a distortion pedal, how is using the NS2's loop any different from putting the NS2 after the distortion? Is the noise reduction any different?
Great video Subu. Could u make a demostration of the tone sucking you mentioned at the end of the video?
Great and useful video. Your presentation was clear and to the point. Wish you the best of luck on your youtube channel. From an indian brother from the south :)
Thank you man. Wish you the same.... Indian brother from Arunachal here :)
How would method 3 fare when lowering the gain on the amp? I play with two overdrive settings, one full gain, and another identical settings but lower gain.
This is pure fucking gold. Thanks random human
