How does it work?

• Your Laptop needs to be connected to a Wifi.
• Make sure your mobile device (smartphone, tablet) is connected to the same Wifi.
• Start the app on your Laptop.
• It shows a QR-Code. Scan that QR-Code with your mobile device.
• Your mobile devices shows the recording light, according to the button.
• A big button allows you to switch the recording light on/off.

• If your DAW can send midi signals, you can configure the Recording Light app in the settings to recognise these midi signals. This way, the light is automatically switched on/off when recording is started/stopped in the DAW.
