If your looking for a noise gate, get an ISP Decimator. Standard in the METAL WORLD for killing feedback and noise at high gain etc.. Some people use TWO, one in front of the amp, one after.

If you've just got a lot of noise, it's because your using a lot of fucking pedals. Every device you add to your signal chain will add to the noise floor. This can be minimized by paying attention to gain staging. Make sure your signal is the same level when it comes out of the pedal as it was going in, if it's louder, then your boosting gain and that also boosts noise.
