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 

Using  MIDI-Sync  on  Leipzig-SK  is  NOT  a  problem!  In  fact  using  MIDI  Sync  is  the 
WORST 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.
