Sushi and gear

Weird, but yesterday , while eating in the restaurant.... we started ordering random Japanese recipes 
that we didn't tryed yet......this reminded me my effects chain: still unexplored enough I need to define what I will do with the Lexicon MX200......till now I'm a kind of unhappy as is still producing some noise in my chain...(bass to compressor to the amplifier......and the Lexi in the FX loop)
Still I need some effect "more in the face" but I don't want to loose to much dynamics while gaining noise....

I'll go soon to Germany in order to try a TC electronics..... it might be better......
