Leveraging the cutting-edge BOSS MDP (Multi-Dimensional Processing) technology, the NS-1X operates with a high degree of sophistication, effectively attenuating unwanted noise artifacts while preserving the authentic tone and tactile response of your guitar or bass instrument. In Reduction mode, it adeptly maintains a noise-free signal in various standard playing scenarios. Conversely, the Gate mode excels in delivering rapid and precise noise suppression, particularly ideal for maintaining the integrity and clarity of intricate, high-gain riffs.Marked by its versatility and user-friendly interface, the NS-1X establishes itself as an indispensable tool for the resolution of noise-related challenges encountered during practice sessions, live performances, and recording sessions.Boss NS-1X Noise Suppressor Effect Pedal Features:Next-generation noise suppressor and gate for guitar, bass, and other electronic musical instrumentsIntelligent BOSS MDP technology eliminates noise with no impact on playing feel or responseIntuitive operation with Threshold, Decay, and Damp knobsReduction mode for general noise suppression applicationsGate mode provides ultra-fast noise elimination for tapping, sweep picking, and heavy rhythm styles that rely on high-gain tonesMute mode for silencing the instrument signal when the pedal switch is engaged (the pedal operates in user-selectable Reduction or Gate mode when the switch is off)Reduction indicator that dynamically displays the current noise suppression statusSend/return loop for optimized noise elimination with overdrives, distortions, and other noise-producing pedalsDC Out for distributing power to other pedals (requires optional PSA adaptor and PCS-20A parallel cable)BOSS five-year warrantyNS-1X Noise SuppressorBoss NS-1X Noise Suppressor Effect Pedal Specifications:Sampling Frequency: 48 kHzAD Conversion: 24 bits + AF method, AF method (Adaptive Focus method) This is a proprietary method from Roland & BOSS that vastly improves the signal-to-noise (SN) ratio of the AD converter.DA Conversion: 32 bitsProcessing: 32-bit floating pointModes: 3 modes, GATE, REDUCTION, MUTENominal Input Level: INPUT, RETURN: -20 dBuMaximum Input Level: INPUT, RETURN: +7 dBuInput Impedance: INPUT, RETURN: 1 M ohmNominal Output Level: OUTPUT, SEND: -20 dBuMaximum Output Level: OUTPUT, SEND: +7 dBuOutput ImpedanceOUTPUT, SEND: 1 k ohmRecommended Load Impedance: OUTPUT, SEND: 10 k ohms or greaterBypass: Buffered bypassControls: MODE knob, DECAY knob, THRESHOLD knob, DAMP knob, Pedal switchIndicator: CHECK indicator (Serves also as battery check indicator), REDUCTION indicatorConnectors: INPUT jack: 1/4-inch phone type, RETURN jack: 1/4-inch phone type, OUTPUT jack: 1/4-inch phone type, SEND jack: 1/4-inch phone type, DC IN jack, DC OUT jackPower Supply: Alkaline battery (9 V, 6LR61), AC adaptor (PSA series: sold separately)Current Draw: 60 mAExpected battery life under continuous use: Alkaline: Approx. 6.5 hours, * These figures will vary depending on the actual conditions of use.AccessoriesLeaflet (“USING THE UNIT SAFELY,” “IMPORTANT NOTES,” and “Information”), Dry battery (9 V, 6LR61)Options (sold separately): AC adaptor: PSA seriesWidth: 73 mm, 2-7/8 inchesDepth: 129 mm, 5-1/8 inchesHeight: 59 mm, 2-3/8 inchesWeight (including battery): 460 g, 1 lb 0.3 oz Boss NS-1X Noise Suppressor Effect Pedal Next-generation Noise Suppressor and Gate for Guitar, Bass, and other Electronic Musical Instruments.
