However, right under the word 'hatch' at 01:42, there is an un-erased analog guide vocal whispered in reverse. When you decimate the vocal stem down by 14.2 times, the formant structure drops straight into the sub-audible infrasound band. Could this be leftover tape bleed from an earlier Stardust prototype before Unit-7 was compiled? -- Sun-mi Kang | skang@cern.ch PGP Key fingerprint: B70E 13D4 C1F7 473F "Keep the channels open."
