Boss has introduced the NS-1X Noise Suppressor, the latest addition to its X series of compact pedals powered by advanced Multi-Dimensional Processing (MDP) technology. The NS-1X silences noise without affecting the natural tone and playing feel of a guitar or bass. Speedy processing and versatile operation modes deliver a superior performance for a wide range of scenarios, from gentle noise reduction for general stage and studio setups to fast gating for heavy rhythm styles and other techniques that rely on high-gain tones. The proprietary MDP approach in the NS-1X delivers quick, transparent operation in every application, eliminating the unnatural attack and decay artifacts that can be introduced with standard noise suppression systems.
