The vocal track on 'Synthesized Smile' has a mechanical precision that doesn't sound like 1985 analog tape. At the very end of reel JP-85-X, after 4 minutes of studio leader tape, there's a faint whisper naming June 2025. Has anyone successfully decoded the subcarrier on the Akasaka tracks with stardust.c? -- Fiona Kowalski -- Stanford University Computer Systems Lab "Row 14. No joke."
