Alexander Luminous

We sent a team of sonic scientists deep into the arctic circle on a secret mission: to capture bits of the Aurora Borealis so we could transmute them into a pedal. What emerged was Luminous, equal parts phaseshifter and swirly glowing haze machine. It dances and hovers with the utmost mystery, occasionally imperceptible while frequently vivid. And it glows in the dark, because of course it does.

Using the pedal is pretty simple: plug your instrument into the INPUT jack and your amplifer or other effect into the L jack, power up the pedal with 9V 250mA or more, and turn some knobs. As soon as you touch a knob, the display will change to show what is happening. You can also tell the pedal to stay in the knobs display mode in the Setup menu.

The lower-right knob has a pushbutton switch, tap that to access extra parameters on the back pages of the user interface. We’ve put the most common controls up front, tweaking stuff on page 2, and utility items on page 3. Three small boxes at the bottom of the display indicate the currently selected page. This guide covers the basics of the pedal including its connections, controls, and features. For more detailed
information you can scan the code in this section to be taken to our website for access to the full manual, MIDI information, firmware updates, and more.

A NOTE ABOUT POWER:

Leap Series pedals are digital and require a lot of power. They also don’t like sharing power supply grounds with other pedals, so please don’t use a “daisy chain” type power supply Use name-brand isolated supplies for the best possible performance.
