The statistical numbers are deeply strange. In statistical terms, her pitch deviation sits 7.1 sigma outside the normal human vocal distribution. Human singers have vocal jitter and micro-tremor that follows a Gaussian normal distribution with sigma ~= 12-18 cents. Could this be early digital pitch correction? Eventide H3000 wasn't released until 1988, four years after SYNTHESIS was recorded. -- Raj Andersson | randersson@demon.co.uk PGP Key fingerprint: C1E8 A5CA EC3B D0D9 "Keep the channels open."

The statistical numbers are deeply strange. Nova's vocal has zero splicing transients. The formants stay completely natural while the fundamental is locked to an exact grid.
