Phonemer is a Eurorack Speech Computer. It reimagines nostalgic Text-to-Speech into a real-time speech synthesis engine, complete with algorithms for intonation and emotion, a built-in 144,000-word pronunciation dictionary, and a vast collection of powerful, simultaneous effects.
It features highly flexible CV inputs and Macro knobs—each utilizing a single modulation source to route to 8 destinations with independent attenuverters. Packed into a 20HP module, it combines USB keyboard support, a fully upgraded audio section, tactile control knobs, and a fluid, immersive GUI paired with buttons and an encoder for an incredibly engaging user experience!
■ Sound Source Section
  • Real-time Formant Speech Synthesis
  • Classic Mode: Authentically reproduces vintage 80s TTS.
  • 4-Poly Mode: Includes a Fine tuning control.
  • Vocoder Mode: Accepts an external modulator.
  • Variable Internal Carrier Oscillator
  • External Carrier Oscillator Input
  • Carrier Oscillator Wavefolding
  • Brightness Control
  • Variable Speech Speed
  • Prosody Engine: Controls intonation and accent.
  • Emotion Knob: Seamlessly morphs through None → Joy → Anger → Sadness → Fun.
  • Circuit Bending Emulation
  • Microtonal Mode: Customizes the number of divisions per octave.
■ Triggering
  • AUTO: Automatically triggers words at user-defined intervals.
  • Trigger: Triggered via the dedicated manual button or Trigger Input.
  • Gate: Generates sound only while the Trigger button or Trigger Input is High.
  • Trigger OUT: Outputs trigger signals based on various configurable conditions.
  • Retrigger: Configurable behavior for triggers received during or after playback.
■ Speech Modes
  • Random: Randomly speaks words from the built-in 144,000-word dictionary.
  • Predictive Pronunciation: Guesses pronunciation for words not in the dictionary.
  • Alphabet Mode: Pronounces individual letters.
  • USB Keyboard Input: Speaks words typed in real time.
  • Markov Chain: Generates natural-sounding, randomized sentences and phrases.
  • Letrism Mode: Pronounces nonsensical words made of arranged phonemes.
  • Caret Navigation: Move the start point to trigger speech from the middle of a word.
  • List Playback: Creates custom lists to cycle through words using configurable patterns.
■ Dictionary & Lists
  • Pre-installed Internal Dictionary: Approximately 144,000 words.
  • User Dictionary Registration: Add custom words via the hardware or a USB keyboard.
  • 99 Custom Lists: Each list can store up to 1,000 entries.
  • CSV Import: Load list files via a USB flash drive.
■ Effects Section
  • All effect blocks can be used simultaneously: PreFX, FX1 (Send), FX2 (Chained with FX1), FX3 (Insert stage), and ZFX (User-triggered performance FX).
  • PreFX: EQ / Comp / DeEsser / Distortion / RadioVoice / Stereo Processor
  • FX1 / FX2 / FX3: Delay / GrainDelay / Reverb / Flanger / Chorus / Phaser / EQ / Comp
  • ZFX: Freeze / Tapestop / Reverse / Scratch
■ Modulation Matrix
  • Features a flexible modulation matrix assignable to almost any parameter via CV, Macro knobs, or internal LFOs.
  • 4x CV Inputs: Supports ±10V with individual range settings. Features 8 destinations, independent attenuverters/offsets, and a master attenuverter.
  • 3x Macro Knobs: Features 8 destinations and independent attenuverters, with the physical knob acting as the master attenuator.
  • 4x Internal LFOs: Features variable waveforms and speeds, switchable to sync with the internal clock. Features 8 destinations, independent attenuverters/offsets, and a master attenuverter.
  • Randomization: Features a dedicated randomization destination that applies a differential from the current value, allowing for reversible/non-destructive randomizing.
■ Internal Clock
  • Equipped with a variable internal clock that syncs with Delay, GrainDelay, Internal LFOs, and ZFX (Freeze).
■ Presets
  • 100 Slots: Save and recall up to 100 user presets.
  • INIT Function: Quickly initialize settings back to default.
  • Preset Randomizer: A highly practical tool for instant inspiration.
■ Live Mode
  • Live Switches: Assigns the F-keys to act as Live switches.
  • State Recording: Record custom parameter states across 8 destinations to a single Live switch.
  • Reversible Behavior: Pressing the Live switch instantly engages your saved state; releasing it restores the module to its original state.
■ Hardware Features
  • Upgraded Audio & Power: Completely redesigned circuitry for pristine, high-quality audio and lower noise.
  • Tactile Controls: 4 Function keys, L/R buttons, a Shift button, and a rotary encoder ensure fluid navigation.
  • High-DPI OLED Display: Supports grayscale tones for smooth, beautiful, and clear visual feedback.
  • USB HOST Port: Connects a wide range of USB keyboards (including 2.4GHz wireless dongles) and USB flash drives.
  • State Memory: Equipped with dedicated non-volatile memory that saves the module's exact state before power-off.
■ Specifications
  • Width: 20HP
  • Depth: 34.5mm
  • Included in the box: Ribbon power cable, 4x M3 screws
