How does Plaqueboymax engineer and record other rappers

How does Plaqueboymax engineer and record other rappers

The reason I ask here is because it seems pretty simple but I cant figure it out and whenever I ask Google nothing is related/helpful in the way I'm asking (probably because I'm not asking it right), I would ask ChatGPT but ik that can be inaccurate/misleading sometimes and I wanna do this right. The vid he made teaching FL doesn't actually go into the recording itself so I wanna ask here.

Here is a video where he is recording Xaviersobased and Che: https://youtu.be/AFBPnW4vyog?t=59&si=GIrp0Bu4CB9gmh4y

Basically when I record takes in FL it groups all subsequent takes under the first one

But when he does it like in the video linked, he'll record one, then for the next one it goes to the next track immediately without grouping, and idk if it's a shortcut or template he's using but it seems very efficient for piecing takes together. Sometimes it goes to the track above and I dont see him arming tracks, see I can do that in Ableton which is the only other DAW I use, and thats because I'm arming the track I'm recording on. Again is this a shortcut or sum bcz i rly dont get how hes doing that ??

There's other stuff too like the way he quickly deletes and reroutes track recording and stuff, I also notice he slightly nudges takes forward sometimes- is this for latency reasons? I always thought if you were recording at 32/16ms buffer size there wont be any latency, or is there still some but just less noticable and nudging a bit improves the overall sound

Basically if someone can do a quick breakdown or share a template that I can experiment with to get the hang of it I would really appreciate it
