I'm on the part of my home recording journey where I've started looking into GarageBand plug-ins. How do I use a saturator and/or spring reverb?

I've mixed a few songs to sound like vintage 78s, and I'm about to mix something that I want to sound vintage but cleaner. A few of the YouTube tutorials I've watched have made general "you should have a saturator" or "you should use a spring reverb plug-in!" I ended up downloading a free saturation plug-in with the idea to use it for mild distortion, but the interface is a bit confusing to use for someone who's new to home recording. I'd also been curious about getting a spring reverb plug-in to use on my vocals, but I've been reluctant to buy something if I don't know how to use it.

My question is this: I want to use the saturator to get a little bit of analog-sounding distortion, and I want to use the spring reverb on my vocals for an early 1960s sound. I'm really confused by the BPB Saturator interface and by the EQ parts of the spring reverb interfaces I've seen. What's the best way to use these plug-ins
