Milkbox Compressor issues

Hey guys,

I'm using a milkbox compressor with a tc hall of fame mini. They are both powered with a one spot, and until last night they've sounded great. Well I took the compressor out of the chain for a bit, and when I brought it back, I've had some issues with noise. The noise sounds like gain noise.

By itself, the compressor is quiet, but once I turn on the reverb, which comes after the compressor, I get noise. This hasn't been an issue before last night. So I put a battery in the DOD and took out it's power supply, same issue. If I put the compressor after the reverb, no noise, but then my trails are getting compressed, so that won't work. Any ideas? Thanks!
