FVF — Harmonic Wobbulator. A software analog of the Frequency→Voltage→Frequency converter with balanced modulator designed at bunkerofdoom.com (hardware built 1984). The live audio's pitch is tracked, scaled/offset into a new carrier frequency, and ring- or AM-modulated back by the original signal — the metallic, glitchy 'very strange' timbre. Shown here as the processed spectrogram.
