Leipzig-v3 User Manual 

W E L C O M E !  

Leipzig-v3  is  a  100%  analogue  synth  using  circuits  that  date  back  to  the  1970s  and 
1980s – these give Leipzig a really old sound that is rich and full of character. 

The circuits are not stabilised and sanitised by CPUs and the controls are not read by 
CPUs and quantised. 

Leipzig  has  a  huge  sound,  especially  when  used  for  bass  (something  it  excels  at!),  a 
fact  often  commented  to  us  by  our  customers  with  great  excitement!  The  mixer  /  filter 
can be really overdriven if required giving the synth a really hard sound if required. This 
can  be  toned  down  of  course  and  nice  soft  synth  sounds  are  possible  too  -  and 
everything in between. 

Though a master at big bass sounds, Leipzig is exceptionally good at making electronic 
percussion.  Not  just  the  sounds,  but  also  percussive  loops  by  using  the  on  board  step 
sequencer. Patterns can quickly be produced, then either easily sync’ed to your DAW, or 
sampled in. 

As  well  as  bass  and  percussion,  Leipzig  will  produce  leads,  effects,  modular  style  and 
other sounds equally well. 

Leipzig is extremely powerful. Don’t be worried by the ‘complex’ looking front panel. The 
synth has been designed to be easy to use, ideal for beginners, but still have the depth 
and versatility to enable many years of superb sounds. 

There  are  many  modulation  choices  on  the  rotary  select  switches.  All  signal  choices 
have been carefully chosen. 

Leipzig was designed by a musician of electronic music, and a popular choice by known 
music  professionals.  We  like  to  think  we  know  what  makes  a  good  synth  and  that  is 
reflected in the design of Leipzig. 

The on board analogue sequencer is not just for making simple melodies or percussive 
loops.  Think  of  it  also  as  a  modulation  source.  Each  step  can  be  used  to  drastically 
change the sounds. This makes it also serve as a simple way of making ‘presets’. Just 
step to get the next sound. The sequencer can control the pitch of either VCO, and also 
the filter cut-off.  

Leipzig  also  has  a  16  note  digital  sequencer  too,  for  playing  back  melodies,  that  can 
then be manually transposed using your keyboard or DAW. 

Sync’ing the sequencer to a MIDI sequencer or DAW couldn’t be easier. Sync is easy by 
sending  it  MIDI  Note  000. That  way  you  can  clock  the  sequencer  at  any  tempo,  divide 
the tempo down (relative to your DAW’s tempo), stop it, start it, mute, etc, all from your 
DAW – something that you cannot do with MIDI Sync. 

So  Leipzig  is  ideal  for  both  beginners,  and  more  advanced  synthesists  and  musicians. 
Use  anywhere  you  want  big  analogue  sounds  that  have  a  true  vintage  sounds.  Ideal 
also if you have the budget for just one analogue synth since this synth covers so many 
bases (and basses!).
