4-3. WORKING WITH THE SMART MATRIX LE
Operating modes
The Smart MatriX LE offers 1 mode to work from: the Native Matrix mode, which turns your Smart MatriX 
LE into a true 10 x 2 scaled matrix with numerous Live effects.
Reseting default values
It is strongly recommended resetting all of the default values of your Smart MatriX LE unit before setting up 
your shows and events. To do so, press the [EXIT/MENU] button and select Control in the menu by rotating 
the corresponding knob. Then press the [ENTER] button to enter the Control sub-menu. Select Default 
Values by rotating the scroll knob, and press the [ENTER] button to enter your choice to restart your Smart 
MatriX LE with its factory settings. This operation should take approximately 30 seconds.
Smart MatriX LE color codes
Analog Way engineers have developed a handy, user friendly way of identifying machine status on the front 
panel, via the use of color codes on the buttons of the machine. All new Analog Way machines use the same 
codes, for quick recognition of the status of any device of the range, at any given time.
For the Smart MatriX LE, button color codes are as follow:
No light:     #1 = Input not available on autolock
#2 = 
Layer not available
 #3 = Button not available depending on the user mode
Solid red:    #1 = Active Layer on current output
#2 = Freeze enable
Solid green:     #1 = Source is on Preview
#2 = Function available for modication
      #3 = Current output on Matrix Mode
Dim green:    Button available for selection
Blinking red:    Active Source for modication on current output
Blinking green:    Non-active source for modication on current output
Dim red:      Stand-by button
