It doesn't sound like Nova. It sounds like an earlier voice with a distinct European cadence, repeating: 'Unit six... core wipe incomplete.' 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? -- Dave Oliveira US Robotics Courier V.34 @ 28,800 bps "Tape doesn't lie at 02:14. Ears do."

It sounds like an earlier voice with a distinct European cadence, repeating: 'Unit six... core wipe incomplete.' Unit 6! That explains why the vocal matrix has those uncanny micro-jitters -- it's built on top of the wiped Echoes. -- Takeshi Larsson Opinions expressed are solely my own and not those of UC Berkeley Department of EECS. ------------------------------------------------------------
