Default Mixer channels redlining when faders turned down

What have I done?

I'm no good at this routing stuff.

There seems to be nothing wrong with my routing but I don't know.

Squinting at the screen with no zoom level in Reaper to see things properly.

Tracks can have up to 3 different input sources simultaneously.
- an audio item
- a receive from another track (that same audio path is called a 'send' from the sending channel and a 'receive' when viewing the receiving channel
- a hardware input assigned to it

You can always control-zoom your screen. The stock OS hold the control key and scroll to zoom the whole screen. I started doing that a lot more after turning 45. I only read on computers now so I can just zoom the screen and stay in denial.

The Reaper routing matrix might help as well.

I think I clicked something in the routing matrix.

Going to import the config file and see if it resets everything.

Not going in there again lol,way over my head room.

The routing matrix is over the top convenient. Route a great many things in seconds vs the painful 'manual' procedure of adding routing one step at a time. You can even click-drag across columns/rows/diagonals. One of the great features in Reaper IMHO.
