It's probably called "I've Got Those...
Blues"
Better go eat some Pecan Pie. Take my mind off of it.

It doesn't ring any bells, even after listening to it in a loop for ten minutes. I've grown to hate it though.

I'd say it's just a random blues rhythm, not a particular song. It sounds familiar because so many songs are based on similar chords. I liked the scene and that little piece of music. I forgot, are there later points in the series where we see Trip pick up the harmonica?

You're right, there's no reason why it should be different in one episode from the other.

I'm not sure where I'm remembering the dummy harmonica from. It may be in the season's special features or commentary, I'm not finding it at Memory Alpha. I think the "North Star" prop was a model by the actual manufacturer, containing no reeds, and specifically designed for use in theatrical productions.

They record the sounds and voices separately as it is then easier to dub the movies for foreign countries. Otherwise they would have to re-record the sounds each time they create a new version, which wouldn't be cost effective, so it really doesn't matter if the prop makes any noise.

Well, not exactly, I mean it's not like every word of dialogue we ever hear is dubbed. Some things like the harmonica, which can't be clearly picked up via the studio microphones, would be dubbed, but most of the dialogue isn't. Except in special cases.

I am sorry, but every voice is dubbed, even the background chatter that you can barely make out. Whatever you do make out, definitely sounds French (if you're watching the French version of course).

Re: What's the song Trip is playing at the beginning of Precious Cargo
There's always going to be ambient room noise when on a soundstage, so some sounds, like opening a drawer, or taking off a coat, are going to be authentic. But the trend for added sounds through dubbing, done by Foley artists, has increased to the point where additional sounds might be added during removal of the coat, like layering in the sound of a dangling zipper tab. That's just with productions set in present day.
With science fiction, there are going to be possibly dozens of sounds added in a simple scene, like internal spaceship noise, buttons pressed, huge mechanical doors opening, etc. Much of the time it's just dependent on budget and how inventive the Foley artists get.
The term ADR seems to be appearing more often than Foley sometimes, but I always thought ADR dealt mostly with looping dialogue that wasn't clearly picked up on the stage.

You know, they usually do a great job of it. For instance when the people are outdoor, the voices (the dubbed voices) really sound outdoorish even though they probably recorded them in a studio.
Re: What's the song Trip is playing at the beginning of Precious Cargo
It does. They will loop dialogue that gets muffled or distorted, but most of what we hear is also what was spoken onstage.
And of course all foreign language versions are dubbed. That must be what Mr. Maru is talking about.

"Must be"? I wasn't aware that that part needed clarification.

It wasn't quite clear what you were trying to say with the following, which made it sound like you meant dialogue wasn't recorded from the stage at all:
Then it became even more confusing with this:
Are you in France?

Yes, I am. I am French born and bred.

That might explain some of the communications problems that are happening in the threads then. Americans don't really learn English, we learn American.

Still, I am quite versed in American dialect. I am not sure there are any problems imputable to my lack of linguistic skills. I definitely have no trouble understanding you.
