Vocal chain help in Samplitude Pro X5

I'm trying to set up a simple vocal chain in Samplitude pro x5 using Aux buses but can't quite wrap my head around it. I have made my own templates in the past which typically include some midi drums sent to a drum bus, a couple guitar tracks sent to a guitar bus, bass sent to a bass bus, vocals sent to a vocal bus etc.. These buses, I send to a submix bus which is then sent to my main outs.

Hi all! Been a while. Well, I'm recording a female vocalist, and I am going to try everything I have on her initial demos to see what works best with her voice. Not that I have much, but it is what it is! I'm looking to see what the folks here think would be the go-to chain (with what I have) for a bluesy female voice, not having heard it...this is more of an exercise.

The last text I wrote,my problem was clipping in my mixer. I found out the problem and now I need advice on my vocal chain for the future. Moonbaby post this

just have to say that taking a Grace and plugging it into the mixer is a bit like putting a Masseratti engine into a Fiat (the French tried that once and called it a Citroen).

Vocal chain: Where to place exciter?

Hey everybody. I'm rapping up mixes for a CD project and am trying to get that sheen on the lead VOX. Working in Logic Platinum 5.5.1 here is my current vocal chain in order: Compressor>De-esser>EQ>RubyTube(Tube emulation). Where would I typically want to add an exciter? I'm thinking before or after the EQ.
