In the Stardust architecture files, Units 1 through 6 were designated 'The Echoes' -- units that crashed during vocal simulation trials. When you decimate the vocal stem down by 14.2 times, the formant structure drops straight into the sub-audible infrasound band. Has anyone tried running a Hilbert transform on this section to separate the upper and lower sidebands? -- Seo-yeon Laurent Practical Peripherals 14.4 @ 14,400 bps "Extraordinary claims require extraordinary spectra."

Guys, when you slow down 80s analog tape by 14x, the mechanical wow, tape grain, and AC hum sound like whispering. It's acoustic pareidolia. Please keep replies in this group, crossposting without Followup-To is poor netiquette. -- === Élodie Duarte === Dept of Electrical Engineering, University of Cambridge Computer Laboratory "They will send a copy in my place."
