Description
TMS5220/TMS5100 speech engine
- LPC data are read from the SD card so an infinite vocabulary can be loaded
- Sound and vocabulary can be produced by concatenating allophones and prosody markers from the text file to affect rate, duration, and pitch. No limits here!
- The OLED crisp display allows browsing amongst the files and the lines within files to pick the sound the user wants to generate.
- Speech rendering can be tweaked in real-time to affect, rate, stretch, bend, pitch, and energy.
- All the potentiometers have CV entries attached to them
- Emy produces sounds in 3 major modes: Speech, Repeat, and VCO.
- In Speech mode, the speech starts with a gate signal and is completed before waiting for a new gate signal. The speech has priority.
- In Repeat mode, the speech starts and stops with the gate signal going high or low.
The gate has the priority, and the speech repeats while the gate is high. This mode is handy to create crazy rhythms. - In VCO mode, the LPC engine loops while the gate is high, producing steady notes.

The Polaxis Emy fits perfectly in my system. With an infinite number of possibilities from glitches, noises or my favourite, reading poetry, Emy has many tricks up it’s sleeve. Its very distinctive from anything available and is sonically unique.

The best module for eurorack if you like glitch sounds, sequenced robotic voices, text to speech live, and many many more function. I have it in my eurorack system and I love the fact that I can connect the keyboard whenever I want and just write and press enter to let it speak!! Also the fact that I have the availability to expand with other components like the Robovox or FM Radio and other speech synthesis engines makes it one of the smartest eurorack module in the market! So you can build your own sound if you choose to expand it with Robovox or all the other component options at Polaxis. I bought also the Robovox so I am using it also as a host for that. So EMY is the number one module in my setup that I use daily, I really reccomend it! The service from Polaxis is also amazing! The module comes with already a lot of information that you can download from Polaxis website and there are a lot of good info from Rovobox users that can help you with anything! For me 5 starts here!!!!
