MIDI SETUP
The MultiJack can also act as a MIDI interface, to allow full remote control of your Leap Series
pedal.
Enter the Setup menu and congure M.JACK = MIDI, then set CHANNL = your desired MIDI
channel. Save and exit.
You can then connect your Leap Series pedal to your MIDI controller or other device using
the MultiJack.
We recommend the use of an active MIDI converter such as the Disaster Area MIDI Box 4.

The MultiJack is also compatible with many devices using a passive MIDI to TRS cable.
We recommend the Disaster Area 5P-TRS PRO but most TRS type-A cables should work so
long as pin 2 is earthed at the MIDI controller output. Please note that some MIDI controllers
do not support the use of a passive MIDI to TRS cable, consult your controller manufacturer.
The MultiJack is wired using Tip = Current Sink, Sleeve = Ground / Common.
NOTE: In some cases, MIDI interference can occur if the TRS ring is left oating. We
recommend you set MIDOUT to OFF or USB, this disables the ring connection and will
prevent MIDI echoes.
MIDI COMMANDS
Your Leap Series pedal features full and comprehensive MIDI implementation. Every single
function and knob may be controlled by MIDI.
Each MIDI command controls the knob or function as described below. Please consult the
Sound Modes (page 4-5) section to match each knob position to the relevant control.
Leap Series pedals will sync to incoming MIDI clock messages for any modes that have the
DIV knob on the last page of the display. The pedal will subdivide incoming clock as set by
DIV, or set DIV to NCLK to force the pedal to ignore incoming clock. This setting is saved per-
preset. Please consult the Tap Tempo and MIDI Clock section on page10 for details.
