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.'
When you decimate the vocal stem down by 14.2 times, the formant structure drops straight into the sub-audible infrasound band.

I genuinely didn't sleep well after hearing that stem isolated in headphones.

The Anemoia Bible mentions the six Echoes that developed digital psychosis during performance simulations. Unit 6 was the last one before Nova.
