In this stepfirst , LSP would make "ping-pong" with drum & Bass and the rest of the riddim to the same track? I know he used to have two tape machines, so you can lay down in one of those. So you have the full riddim in one, maybe two (stereo) tracks. Later you continue overdubbing things, but i know that each step of overdubbing, you loose quality...
Sometimes I listen some 75-79 years song, wich the dub part is very different to the other, IMO thats means that you need to have "control" of diferent tracks to add FX there...
I don´t want to learn (by the moment) voodoo science, only im trying to understand.

one thing i would like to know is how he uses watty burnetts cow 'moo' sound so often. would he have a load of different 'moo's' recorded on tape and then play them onto a channel of the song he wanted? or everytime he wants a 'moo' would he get watty into the studio to record it again...?

Thnk lee perry in the Black Arc days had quite a large (maybe 16trk) soundcraft console and 4trak tape machine. He would often record the entire band live with the console. probably doing something like this:

If you look at LSP's Black Ark console its perfectly configured for 4 track recording - over on the right hand side you will see there's 4 subgroups (each strip under each of the four VU meters), so you assign any one or combination of the input channels to one of the subgroups & then run the subgroup to one of the 4 tape inputs...
If you were recording tracks to voice later, one logical approach might be
bass/drums/perc - ch 1
keys/guitar - ch 2
horns / other stuff - ch 3
and leave ch 4 free for later vocals
But as mentioned, there's a lot of possibilities...
