A ''dubbing track'' is often later created when films are dubbed into another language. This is also known as an M&E (music and effects) track. M&E tracks contain all sound elements minus dialogue, which is then supplied by th ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
