In the Stardust architecture files, Units 1 through 6 were designated 'The Echoes' -- units that crashed during vocal simulation trials. It doesn't sound like Nova. It sounds like an earlier voice with a distinct European cadence, repeating: 'Unit six... core wipe incomplete.' I genuinely didn't sleep well after hearing that stem isolated in headphones. -- Yuki Park Opinions expressed are solely my own and not those of Massachusetts Institute of Technology. ------------------------------------------------------------ From ekuznetsov@rwth-aachen.de Thu May 23 02:26:02 1996 Path: ashpoly!cascade!transat!ukc!fennimore!rwth-aachen!ekuznetsov From: ekuznetsov@rwth-aachen.de (Elaine Kuznetsov) Newsgroups: alt.fan.nova-hart Subject: Re: The 14.2x slowdown voice on 'Memory Hatch' - myth vs reality Message-ID: <1996May23.022602.7859@rwth-aachen.de> Date: Thu, 23 May 1996 02:26:02 GMT References: <1996May22.191802.7682@mit.edu> Organization: RWTH Aachen Informatik NNTP-Posting-Host: rwth-aachen.de X-Newsreader: Netscape 1.1N Lines: 8 In article <1996May22.191802.7682@mit.edu>, ypark@mit.edu (Yuki Park) writes: > I spent last night testing the 14.2x time-stretch claim on track 2 using a 16-bit Sound Blaster transfer.
