I was recently interviewed by a professional audio engineer about my quest to recreate the Cylon voice; here is the link for your enjoyment:

That was a fantastic article!!! Thank you for posting up the link to it.

SO MUCH went into the Cylon Centurion voice, it's epic reading about all the equipment, voice and processes that had to click so it sounded the way it did. Amazing. I agree that the tubes and analog just give a richer sound that new digital perfection. It's like a pipe organ... its sounds can be like none other because it literally breathes air. You quest along with the others' work is exceptional.

My brother played the saxophone too, but for only a year or so in elementary school. I played the trumpet for about three weeks. :oops:

Loved the helmet/mic on the equipment pic. Cylon perfection.
I didn't know about the Raider engine sound or the Daggit, great info. Do you know about more sounds from the show?
