When you decimate the vocal stem down by 14.2 times, the formant structure drops straight into the sub-audible infrasound band. It doesn't sound like Nova. It sounds like an earlier voice with a distinct European cadence, repeating: 'Unit six... core wipe incomplete.' Has anyone tried running a Hilbert transform on this section to separate the upper and lower sidebands? -- Pavel Brennan "Hold for relay."

I tried this on my Sound Blaster 16 using a custom DSP resampler. The whispered syllables are 100% there. -- Anja Lindqvist | alindqvist@titech.ac.jp PGP Key fingerprint: 72D6 B02B 5D67 F60B "Keep the channels open."
