When you decimate the vocal stem down by 14.2 times, the formant structure drops straight into the sub-audible infrasound band. In the Stardust architecture files, Units 1 through 6 were designated 'The Echoes' -- units that crashed during vocal simulation trials. Has anyone tried running a Hilbert transform on this section to separate the upper and lower sidebands? -- Lucia Laurent *PLONK* filter active for trolls.

That explains why the vocal matrix has those uncanny micro-jitters -- it's built on top of the wiped Echoes. -- Diego Ivanov | divanov@stanford.edu PGP Key fingerprint: 1496 FE4E 27D1 1DCF "Keep the channels open."
