Analogue Solutions | SEQUENCER

25

Sequencer advances one step each time a MIDI key is played with a velocity over 80
(accented).

EXT1

If a clock signal or LFO is fed into the EXT1 socket on the rear panel then that becomes
the souce.

MIDI-CV2

The auxiliary CV (controlled by MIDI velocity or MIDI controller) steps the sequencer.
When the CV goes from 0v to approx. 2V, the sequencer steps.

MIDI SYNC (ON LEIPZIG-SK THIS IS EXT2)

The sequencer will run when it received MIDI Sync. It responds to Start and Stop
messages too.

HOW TO SYNC LEIPZIG-S/-SK TO MIDI

Losing MIDI-Sync on Leipzig-SK is NOT a problem! In fact using MIDI Sync is the
WORSE way to sync the sequencer to a MIDI sequencer.

Sync’ing using MIDI KEY is by far more creative and flexible than using MIDI SYNC
(MIDI Clock).

When using this, each time a MIDI note is received, the sequencer advances one place.

Just create a track of 16x 16

th

notes on your MIDI sequencer. Experiment with different

patterns of notes, and different ntoe lengths. But ensure the notes do not overlap.

The note number of the MIDI notes will affect the pitch as usual. Ideal for transposing
the Leipzig’s analogue sequencer.

ADVANTAGES;

 You can use your MIDI Sequencer’s ‘Mute’ to stop/start Leipzig’s sequencer.
 The track that controls Leipzig’s sequencer doesn’t need to be a run of 16

th

notes. If can be any pattern you wish.

 The above CANNOT be done with MIDI Sync!
 The pitch of the MIDI Notes will transpose the pitch of Leipzig.
