Default What is this one thin red line on the master left channel?

Screenshot attached. When the master signal gets to -0.6 it shows a thin red line, and it disappears when the signal falls below -0.6 again. It's not the clipping indicator, because that's thicker and I've got sticky indicators on. What is it? My best guess is that it's a little warning, letting me know that it's getting close to clipping but not quite there. Can I configure the level at which it appears?

It indicates the master track is getting MIDI from somewhere.

I doubt it... it's only when the signal hits -0.6 dBFS. If I lower the level of the track coming into the master, that line doesn't appear. I also don't have any midi coming into REAPER at that point (I think, anyway). But if it is... how could I find out?

This actually affects all meters (and doesn't require a resize), but requires that you have set the meter max value to +0dB in preferences/appearance/track control panels. Looking at a fix now.
