What is that effect/affect the strings in the Oath to Order (Giants Theme) from Zelda - Majora's Mask are doing?

Song is Oath To Order or the Giants Theme

Not gonna lie, it reminds me of that thing Native Americans do with the hand over the mouth creating a tremolo-y-vibrato-y effect

Listen carefully to the strings but not harp

Tremolo/volume modulation by the N64's synth (the original sounds fairly similiar)

"Effect" is the spelling you want here. "Affect" when it's a noun is pronounced affect and refers to whether a person displays emotion. Otherwise it's a verb.
