I love the pedal. I find it rather stupid, however, that Boss does not include the inexpensive power adapters with their products. So, go buy the adapter or you'll be replacing the 9V battery constantly. Note - Boss of course states to only use their power adapter. Howrver, you can save about $20 by buying a different adapter with the exact same specs and you'll have zero problems.

I bought this pedal on a whim at a great used price on eBay. I haven't used it much, but the few times I have used it, I was impressed. This is definately a noise "suppressor" and not a noise gate. By that I mean that it does not "clamp down" on the noise so much as it sort of filters it out. I have a rather noisy Squire II Strat and this pedal quiets it down nicely. It feels natural when playing and the "decay" feature allows for a natural tone decay without abruptly cutting the signal off at a hard threshold. Boss pedals are none to somewhat color your tone but if this pedal colors my tone in anyway, I haven't noticed it. A nice bonus is that this pedal has a power out jack which allows you to use it as a power supply for other pedals in you chain. Overall this pedal is a great value especially if you find one used. It will quite down your signal.Read full review
Boss has been making great pedals for a long time and the Boss Noise Suppressor is no exception. As others have stated, it's best to put this pedal closest to your amp, to get the full benefit. The pedal I purchased works very well. Depending on how you dial it in, it can give some what of a staccato effect to the notes you play, when turned all the way up. Overall I am very happy that I purchased this product as it has drastically cut down the amount of noise coming from my amp and other effects pedals. Since this is my first noise suppressor pedal of any kind, I can't say that it is the best one on the market but I can say that it does work!
Great noise gate and can be found relatively cheaply. It’s a great pedal with different routing options on how you want to use it. A must have for high gain amps, or even single coil pickup users to cut out pickup noise. Can’t go wrong!

This is a modded NS-2 courtesy of Alchemy Audio. Magic might be too strong a word for how well this pedal works, but not by much. Its simply amazing; cuts the hiss right out of the sound when the boost, compression and/or OD pedals are engaged. Strongly recommended. The pedal costs $100 and Alchemy charge $50 for the mod; I bought this one for $75, used but who cares. The LED's are very, very bright - might need to put some tinted transparent stuff over them as I have with another Alchemy pedal - no biggie. Amazing value.
