BBE Sonic Maximizer Hiss

Hey all. I had no idea where to put this thread..hopefully this is an okay spot!

So - I'm having a hissing problem with my BBE Sonic Maximizer. When I play and the SM is turned on, I hear a hiss behind my notes. When I'm not playing, however, it's dead silent! When I play through the Maximizer bypassed, there's no hiss at all. I don't get it! Has anyone else experienced this? I love the sound I get with the Maximizer... Here's my set up:
2010 Fender Am. Deluxe Jazz V > TU-2 > MarkBass Compressore > Line6 M9 > MarkBass Super Booster > BBE Sonic Maximizer > GK RB 1001II > GK NEO 410.

I run everything into my power conditioner in my rack. Any ideas? I'm out of them...:help:
