how would you guys compare these two noise suppressors in quality of reducing noise and hum? also,do you know if the ns 50 has an effects loop? the ns 2 does. i play through about 7 or 8 effects and that will probably grow a little, would the effects loop be worth it? how much will it improve my sound and signal loss? please tell me what you know about these.. thanks alot
 
All a noise suppressor does is function as a gate. They cut off the signal when the volume is below a certain level determined by the threshold. They don't actually eliminate any noise or hum from the signal. They just cut off everything when you aren't playing.

They can be handy for live rigs but they don't actually clean up the signal. If you have serious hum or buzz problems they need to be addressed at the source. Usually bad cables and dirty power are the real culprits. A good power conditioner can help.
