Overdub is a 2-track recorder. This means you can lay down one track, record a second track while you are listening to the first, and mix them together; record another track while listening to the mixed tracks, and mix them together; record another track on top of those, ad infinitum. Click the Audio Sample button above to hear how one person can create a complete song arrangement.

USING THE PROGRAM:

Mixing the original audio with the overdub and creating a final output file is controlled by three buttons at the top of the screen. You can create a new file mixing the two, add the overdub to the original file, or save only the overdub.

You can either load in an audio file and then record the overdub, or you can first record the original audio directly into Overdub! before recording the overdub.

CREATING AN OVERDUB

Step 1. Load your original audio in Overdub! by clicking File->Open. Then select the audio file you want to load. The voiceover will be recorded at the same bit depth and sampling rate as your original file. If you don't yet have the background audio, you can record it directly into Overdub! Choose the bit depth and sampling rate you want to use, and record the audio. Step 2. Set the convenient Punch in and Punch Out markers so that everything you want to overlay is inside the markers. This will mark where you want to overlay your new sound file.

Step 3. Record the overdub, whether it's a voiceover, sound effects, or an additional layer of music, by clicking Start Record. You can control the volume and the stereo pan and re-take your recording as many times as you would like. Step 4. Save your new overdubbed file by clicking Mix Down to a New File.

Overdub! requires a PC running Windows 2000, XP , Vista or windows 7.
