The easiest way to be sure of that is to always and only edit them by
selecting them both at the same time. Since you've already made edits, zoom
all the way

started happening again. Switched submix off, then back on (something I
haven't tried yet). It's working again.

This is like chasing a ghost around.

So far, temporary fixes nave been:

1. Flipping from WC to internal and then back again (worked for a while,
then stopped)

2. Switching Card C from card to virtual (worked for a while, then stopped)

3. Terminating the BNC outputs (worked once, then stopped)

4. Turning Submix B off, then on again. Maybe this is the
ticket..........but I doubt it, if history is any indicator.

Still plugging away here.
