NS-1X

BOSS

Eliminate pesky noise with intelligence through the innovative NS-1X Noise Suppressor from BOSS, a pedal loaded with advanced BOSS MDP technology to analyze your signals and carefully remove unwanted noise without negatively affecting tone, playing response, or feel. With three modes to choose from Reduction Mode, Gate Mode, and Mute Mode you can address problem noise in virtually any application, with any playing style and any electric or electronic instrument, including guitars, basses, and keyboards.Threshold, decay, and damp knobs let you carefully sculpt your noise elimination, ensuring you maintain the perfect sound regardless of application or technique. The convenient send/return loop makes the NS-1X highly compatible with noise-inducing gain pedals like overdrives, distortions, or fuzz pedals. And with the optional PSA adapter and PCS-20A parallel cable, you can use the extra 9 VDC output to send power to another pedal, making your pedalboard setup less of a hassle.Cutting-Edge Noise Suppression Background noise can be problematic with guitar and bass, particularly in high-gain setups. The proprietary MDP approach used in the NS-1X delivers fast, transparent operation in every application, eliminating the unnatural attack and decay artifacts that can be introduced with standard noise suppression systems. High-speed digital technology analyzes the input signal on multiple levels in real time, enabling ultradetailed processing that provides just the right amount of noise reduction for any playing style or performance venue.MDP: Advanced Tech, Superior Tone Leveraging decades of research and development, BOSS s proprietary Multi-Dimensional Processing (MDP) technology offers a fresh approach to achieving exceptional tones. In real time, MDP analyzes the various elements that make up the sound, including frequency, overtones, dynamics, pickup response, and more.Various playing characteristics are analyzed as well, such as note register, single notes vs. chords, bends, vibrato amount, and others. Each individual element is then processed in unique ways to produce optimized tones as you play. With its ultradetailed, high-tech approach, MDP delivers tone quality and playability that reaches far beyond the limits of traditional effects processing.Maximum Versatility The NS-1X features multiple operation modes to fine-tune the noise suppression for your needs:Reduction: This mode provides gentle noise suppression that works with most instruments and playing styles. The note decay is natural and noise-free with all pickup types, including low-output single coils.Gate: Ideal for high-gain sounds, this mode immediately silences the sound when no single is present. MDP provides a lightning-fast response that no other noise reduction pedal can deliver, ensuring a natural playing feel and punchy note attack for pecussive djent riffs, sweep picking, and legato tapping techniques.Mute: This mode turns the pedal's bypass setting into a convenient mute switch for changing instruments, tuning, and set breaks. The NS-1X will operate in either Reduction or Gate mode when the pedal switch is off, assignable using a simple power-up procedure.Quick and Easy Operation With intuitive controls and a multi-LED indicator, you can dial in your perfect noise-suppression profile in seconds:Threshold: Determines the level at which the noise suppression begins. In Reduction mode, start with the knob at the lowest setting and turn clockwise until the noise disappears, while in Gate mode you should do the opposite, starting at the highest setting gradually turning down until you find the ideal attack.Decay: Chooses when the selected mode reaches maximum noise suppression. Start at the lowest setting, then turn the knob clockwise if needed to achieve a more natural decay.Damp: This controls the maximum amount of noise reduction. Higher settings make the noise reduction effect stronger and clearer, while lower settings reduce the strength of the effect for
