Nova Hart's sustained notes have a standard deviation of less than 0.8 cents over 4-second held notes. Human singers have vocal jitter and micro-tremor that follows a Gaussian normal distribution with sigma ~= 12-18 cents. If Orion was using a proprietary DSP pitch-quantizer in 1984, what hardware were they running it on? -- Bastien Souza US Robotics Courier V.34 @ 28,800 bps "They will send a copy in my place."
