Hi folks -- So I'm learning to use GarageBand with a Focusrite interface. My short-term goal is to share music with other musicians for networking mainly, and to enjoy making decent recordings, and for practice of course, to hear my performances back later with a cold ear.
I'm using reverb, EQ, and compression, either the built-ins or the Focusrite plug-ins. To be honest I don't fully understand the technical side of how these work... I play around with them to see what seems to sound right. I don't use any pitch correction or other effects.
My question of the day is about the ordering of reverb, EQ, and compression. General guidelines? No-nos?
Here is a sample:
ETA SoundCloud removed my sample, I guess because I'm using a backing track? Seems like a lot of people are doing the same with backing tracks. Not sure how to share that?

Thanks!
