At least I know I have a new good bottom bracket, so whatever is making that noise, the pedals won't be falling off the bike.
If you stand on one side of your bike and put all your weight on one pedal, can you reproduce the noise? What about on the other side of the bike?

Some things it could be.....(hard to know without hearing the sound)
-Pedals
-Rear Hub

If you have an extra rear wheel laying around, try swapping and see if the noise goes away. Try it with the pedals also. We had a customer come in recently thinking he had a noisy bottom bracket and found it to be the rear hub, we could easily reproduce the noise by pushing on the pedal on the drive train side.
