At boot, the LED’s will flash an RGB pattern to test the lights. It will then flash each switch mode, followed by the MIDI channel, followed by the firmware version.
If you’re in Snapshot mode, at this point it’ll flash green LEDs to let you know it’s in snapshot mode. If not, it’ll light up the switches with their repective footswitch pixel color helping denote the mode.

Each additional press of the same footswitch will cycle through the options as shown below
Press a new footswitch to see that footswitch’s mode and start editing that footswitch
