A perhaps weird tip for mudding and taping is not to worry about ridges in your mud job. I always used to try to make the mudding perfect. All it has to be is even and feathered out. Sanding takes care of ridges and nubs. A quick wet sand can fill in some valleys too.
If you're using paper tape instead of fiberglass mesh, over sanding to the tape is game over man.
