LEDs

Loop LEDs

The Loop 1 and Loop 2 footswitch LEDs share the same color coding,
and light pattern (for colorblind users).

Green

Red

Orange

Playback

Recording

Overdub

Solid

Slow Flicker

Quick Flicker

Both Loop 1 and Loop 2 footswitch LEDs are accompanied by a red
square Arm LED that indicates which loop is currently armed.

When an

external MIDI Clock

is used, the Arm LED for the currently

selected Loop will

blink at the received tempo

.

Stop LED

The Stop LED will glow red when loop audio is stopped.

When

stopped, if no audio is recorded, the Stop LED will not be lit.

Clip LED

This red LED between the Loop Volume knobs will indicate when
the input signal is reaching the maximum headroom of the Infinity’s
recording engine and begins to trigger the analog limiter stages. If
the Clip LED is lighting up solid red, reduce the output level of your
instrument until the Clip LED is just beginning to light up at the peaks
in your audio signal.
