It’s a strategic pivot in our audio disruption roadmap, optimizing for maximum pedalboard real estate efficiency while maintaining that signature dial-up aesthetic.This isn’t just a noisemaker, it’s a comprehensive audio transformation platform designed to help you create your very own arcade soundtrack using guitar, bass, keys, or whatever. We’ve deployed an assignable LFO modulation system that unlocks unprecedented creative possibilities while streamlining the workflow for agile sonic deployment.Your tone has never sounded more like a Gateway 2000 slowly dying. The Y2K bug didn't destroy civilization, but this pedal will destroy your clean signal at 56k baud.The Leap Series improves upon our popular Neo Series platform in lots of ways, including:Stereo audio input and output with phase correctionLow-noise direct-coupled audio pathImproved audio headroom and frequency responseFXCore DSP with more than 8 times the processing power than our previous Neo Series pedals32 onboard presets (4 banks of 8 presets each,) all accessible on the pedal without the need for external controls.SoundsSyntax Error XP features eight sound modes, each with its own set of tweakable parameters.STRETCH — Glitchy buffer madness: records your signal and plays it back at variable speed and direction for dialup tones, twisted echoes, and laser bird chaos.AIR — Simulates early low-memory rack reverbs with added sample-crush dirt, pitch shifting, and grainy diffusion textures.RING — Ring modulator ranging from tremolo to gonging robot sounds, with a sample & hold that randomizes the carrier for unpredictable space-droid weirdness.CUBE — Digital distortion via math, paired with a resonant filter for dialing in everything from subtle grit to genuinely gruesome tones.FREQ — Frequency shifter (not pitch shifter) that applies a fixed Hz offset, producing phaser-like tones, cascading echoes, or straight-up out-of-tune madness depending on feedback settings.WAVE — FM-style modulation that warps your signal's frequency, landing anywhere between vibrato and clangy percussive mess; especially interesting with drum machines.GLITCH SHIFT — Pitch shifting with all the safety rails removed, plus a BARF control that introduces artifacts no well-behaved pitch shifter could produce.DYNAMIC — Envelope-controlled sample crusher that automatically adjusts sample rate based on your playing volume, with separate rate targets for quiet and loud signals.FeaturesPRESETSTHIRTY-TWO built-in presets (four banks of 8) allow you to colour with all the crayons in the box. Hold the Bypass / Preset footswitch to select the next preset, or hold both footswitches for the previous.EXPRESSION AND RAMPINGSeamlessly morph between different knob settings on the fly using the built-in ramp footswitch, expression pedal, footswitch, or MIDI controller.MULTIJACKConnect an expression pedal, footswitch, or MIDI controller to this jack to add performance control to your pedal.BYPASS TRAILSThe reverb + delay trails are configurable for hard bypass, full trails, or auto trails. In auto trails mode, the reverb will decay normally and then seamlessly ramp to zero volume for the lowest possible operating noise.STEREO INS AND OUTSThe input jack is selectable for standard mono or TRS stereo signal input without opening the pedal. The output jacks are usable as either mono, two-cable stereo, or TRS stereo. Connect all your Venture and Leap Series pedals in stereo with TRS cables for a neat and tidy pedalboard!USB PORTEvery Leap Series pedal features a USB port for MIDI control and firmware updates.SpecificationsMono or stereo input (TRS)Mono or stereo output (TRS or dual outputs)Input Impedance: 1M ohmsOutput Impedance: 560 ohmsDC 9V only, 250mA or greaterRequires isolated DC power supply (not included)4.7” x 2.6” x 1.5” H x W x D not including knobsEight sound engines32 user presets, arranged in 4 banks of 8MultiJack enables expression pedal, foot switch, or MIDI inputEXP Morph allows controlling all knobs from expression pedal, ramp footswitch, or MIDIAutomatic ramping function for expression control without external pedalAssignable LFO for parameter automationCTL footswitch for tap tempo and ramp triggerUSB port for firmware updates and USB MIDIBuffered bypass
