When recording rap, what should you consider when adding overdubs?

Quick Tips for Rap Overdubs:

• Purpose: Use overdubs for emphasis, ad-libs, or doubling key lines.
• Volume: Keep overdubs quieter than the main vocal (about -6 to -10 dB).
• Consistency: Use the same mic and setup as the main vocal.
• Timing: Stay tightly in sync with the main track—use a click if needed.
• Mixing: Pan doubles slightly left/right; keep main vocal centered.
• Effects: Match the main vocal’s effects for a cohesive sound.

Keep it tight and subtle—overdubs should support, not overpower, your main vocal.
