The votrax SE02, the one used in many notetakers and speech synthesizers. Is
there any emulators for that one?

How old?  Which specific models?

Most, IIRC, had serial interfaces (type n talk, personal speech, etc.) Off
hand, I can't recall what the VS6 used -- a parallel interface or serial --
but it was used in (as in "inside") the early reading machines.

ISTR the digitalker also used a serial interface (but that's a different
product line) as did the GI device and TI's LPC offerings.
