Let's settle the 'voice under the voice' rumor once and for all.

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?

I tried this on my Sound Blaster 16 using a custom DSP resampler. The whispered syllables are 100% there.
