What's the order of effects for a program?

from 4 to 1 or from 1 to 4?

The reason I ask is because sometimes I'll load a kit and see many variations?

It must be hard to figure out if it isn't one then it is the other.

Try diff orders and see which makes the best sense to you and your ears.

Thank you for the answer.

I'm guessing the kits I bought did it in reverse deliberately.

In guitar world the reverb is usually last. In this case putting the reverb before the compressor really gets the hats and cymbals pumping which I'm guessing was the desired effect of whoever created the kit.
