That's why noise suppressors were invented. Put a Kompakt Kassette in a BOSS NS-2's loop and everything should be fine. Some of my dirt pedals produce a lot of noise when not playing. With the NS-2 it's all good.

Can you put only one pedal in at a time or can you put a chain of pedals in? I need to know! LOL! I'm also having issues but not with Seppuku.

You can put as many pedals you want in that loop. No noise will come through as long as you don't make a sound with your guitar. It's easy to dial in the threshold and decay values for your own setup. It's such a great and cheap tool!

The NS-2 is like a really fast, slow gear (or an inverted envelope follower). It mutes when not playing and you set the attack and release of the gate (mute). I had one for a long time and it worked well, but I always felt that it slightly changed my playing dynamics (meaning, my guitar was low output and it would give me a slight slow gear effect...kinda like using the envelope on the LAL sandstorm without the noise). I actually liked the effect sometimes. But what I was actually fighting was a dirty power supply coupled with ungrounded 100 year old electric lines at my old studio...it can't suppress 60-cycle hum at the amp. The NS-2 is a useful tool and it would actually work well with the kassette (assuming it plays well with buffers). I loved it with my mt-2 for choppy riffs. I had one pedal that was so noisy once (I think it was a DOD) that the gate would actually never close on the ns-2 and I had to run the attack long and decay fast (which is probably what stuck in my head about the dynamaics)
I kinda just roll with the noise...it doesn't bother me and in most live situations, I noticed it more than anyone else (and 90% of the time it was 60-cycle).
Pepe is right though, it is a good tool to have around!

I just got a TC Electronic Sentry, and I really like that pedal as well.

Are you talking about my reverb ads?
Yeah, I've made some listings and ended them. Going to put them up a little later. Waiting for some dibs-people to get back to me first. The collecting has beem fun, but it's gotten to a point where I don't use them much. I'm still keeping the majority of them though.

They're back up
The pedals that people have dibs on have yet to be put up. Will add them if they don't want them.

You bet, baby.
I saw 'em and then when I clicked on 'em, they'd already "ended". I thought there was maybe some back room deals goin' on.
Back up? (boner)
You're so fickle.
