Technical quesiton on gear.....

I was feeling like I wasn't getting the best vocal I could as well as instrument tracks. I acquired a compressor unit and a separate eq unit a while back. My thinking is that even though my Roland BR gear has "built in"effects - comp, gate, delay whatever.... I might be able to get a better more controlled sound by putting the compressor and EQ in the input chain and go dry on the recording track. Meaning ..... Instrument/mic, pre amp, compressor, eq, track input....digital track.... Has anyone ever tried this? Any recommendations as to the sequence of connections? Any inherent obvious flaws in my thinking? Any other suggestions.....ThanxzArkJack
