Quiet audio: Behringer Denoiser SNR-202 — $80

by IEBA on Jul.24, 2009, under For Sale

denoiserFrontThis little device sits in your rack and takes out all the little “hiss” that develops as once piece of gear feeds another, and another. Make this the last, or next to last and this quiets down everything to make it sound like you have the perfect rack of gear. Comes with manuals and product line literature from Behringer.

I use this as the last stage before my power amp. I have a Carvin Quad X-amp tube preamp and a Seymour Duncan KTG 2100 tube power amp in addition to a few stomp-box effects in the loops. This unit really, really helps with the tube amps, which tend, of course, to be noisier than solid state. So I can crank it up, and when I’m not playing you here barely a little tube hum. I begin playing and unnoticeably the Behringer lets go. With the settings right for your rig, it will then, again almost invisibly, kick back in when you’ve made your statement. Seems to float in and out perfectly.

I have recently been re-checking and rewiring my studio. The Behringer noise reduction unit is disconnected temporarily, and MAN do I miss it!!! My system IS very quiet, but the Behringer puts a HUSH on the system that one has to HEAR to believe. What used to be taken care of with masking, the Behringer can do with proper set-up. As a previous review stated, this box is the the LAST (or next to the LAST) processor in the chain.
