48 mins confidence: 
dubbed Explanation: i believe silviamg's reference is on target for this context. this would imply that the sound of the track does not have a natural feel to it, that parts were dubbed, edited into the arrangement, almost as an afterthought... the music has a "sampled" feel, it doesn't sound live or at least not as if recorded directly from actual playing or performing. |
