It doesn't sound like Nova. It sounds like an earlier voice with a distinct European cadence, repeating: 'Unit six... core wipe incomplete.' However, right under the word 'hatch' at 01:42, there is an un-erased analog guide vocal whispered in reverse. Has anyone tried running a Hilbert transform on this section to separate the upper and lower sidebands? -- === Matthias Larsson === Dept of Electrical Engineering, Demon Internet Services UK "Do not worship the copy."

Unit 6! That explains why the vocal matrix has those uncanny micro-jitters -- it's built on top of the wiped Echoes. -- === Fiona Duarte === Dept of Electrical Engineering, Hanse-Netzwerk Hamburg "Measuring a record you own is listening, not piracy."

I tried this on my Sound Blaster 16 using a custom DSP resampler. The whispered syllables are 100% there. My 14.4k connection dropped twice trying to fetch this thread.
