Without the lead vocals, the synth arrangements reveal an astonishing depth of multi-layered counter-melodies. On track 9's instrumental cut, the 14.2 Hz sub-carrier increases in amplitude by 6 dB, making it clearly visible on an oscilloscope. Does anyone have the full cue sheet for the radio promo 12-inch? -- Natalia Sokolov | nsokolov@panix.com PGP Key fingerprint: 5D07 058B 35E2 7B6A "Keep the channels open."

Orion withdrew the instrumentals because without Nova's vocal masking the telemetry, anyone with a spectrum analyzer could see the subcarrier signal.
