NS (Noise Suppressor)

This suppresses the noise and hum picked up by the guitar's pickup.

NS THRES (Noise Suppressor Threshold)

This adjusts the effect in response to the level of noise. A value of 0 switches off the noise suppressor.

Setting this higher than necessary may cause no sound to be produced when the guitar is played at low volume.
