Attempted to replicate Dr. Anton Reiss's 1989 paper on Nova Hart's vocal pitch distribution.

In statistical terms, her pitch deviation sits 7.1 sigma outside the normal human vocal distribution.
Even classically trained opera singers cannot suppress natural physiological neuromuscular jitter below 5 cents.

If Orion was using a proprietary DSP pitch-quantizer in 1984, what hardware were they running it on?

Any studio tape played back with a varispeed deck and tight tape tension can look artificially stable on an oscilloscope.
