In this video, CALC (Chris Calcutt) takes an in-depth look at the Leploop, a unique synthesizer, sequencer & drum machine.

Video Summary:

Here is a tutorial I have been wanting to make for a long long time. The marvelous Italian groovebox of wonders…. the LEPLOOP.

Clocking in at 1 hour and 8 minutes, this is not for the faint hearted, it gets pretty hairy at points, too. But it covers what this unusual groovebox is and how it does what it does……

The first half considers the voice engines and how they are controlled, the second half concentrates on what must be one of the most awkward but ultimately rewarding sequencers of all time.

Its a beast, but with perseverance it can be tamed… well actually I’m not sure tamed is the right word.

I hope someone somewhere finds it useful in breaking the enigmatic code of the LEPLOOP.
