How do I set up my guitar effects chain with Boss NS-3 Noise Suppressor?

Question:

How do I set up my guitar effects chain with Boss NS-3 Noise Suppressor?

I have the following guitar effects pedals: Boss TU2 (tuner), CS3 (compressor), SD1 (overdrive), dunlop wah, dunlop volume ped, Boss RV2 (reverb), DD3 (delay), CH1 (chorus), and finally NS3 (noise suppressor).

This concerns the NS3. It's got send-return jacks on it, besides the input-output jacks, and I'm trying to decide if they're worth using.

Here's my current chain:

Guitar - TU2 - vol - wah - CS3 - SD1 - Input to NS3 - Output frm NS3 to Input of amp; Effects send from amp - CH1 - DD3 - RV2 - Effects Return to amp.

But, would a better chain be one like:

Gtr - Input to NS3 - Send from NS3 to vol - wah - CS3 - SD1 - Return to NS3 - Output from NS3 to Input of amp; then Effects Send from amp - TU2 - CH1 - DD3 - RV2 - Effects Return to amp.

I'm hopeful some knowledgeable fellow guitarists can follow that and give some advice on setups that work. I know it's an individual thing, just want some ideas on what you guys do or would do.

Thanks in advance,

Chris

Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: Always put the Noise Suppressor at the end of the chain with your overdrive pedal.

The NS3's function is to silence any extra noise coming from the other pedals, so if you put it first, how can it silence anything?

Extra noise usually comes from the overdrive/distortion pedal, so put it at the end of that chain.
