2024 Version Input Settings

Hi Again,

   Ok, I asked earlier about why my level meters suddently quit working.  I now cannot find that.  Anyway, I've looked at several YouTube tutorials, and not a single one of them show what I see in my program.  I have a newer version, downloaded in maybe late 2023, or possibly even sometime in early 2024.  I'm guessing what those tutorials are showing is in the older versions.  I do not understand the setup, being that I never change settings - I have no reason to.  I did manage to find the Channel Mapping screen, and everything seems to be in order - both the input settings, and the output settings.  It's strange that my settings seem to magically change for no apparent reason.  The other day, my Record buttons got disabled somehow, and I came here to ask about that, didn't get any answer that I could make heads or tails of.  For some reason, the setting changed itself back, because now the Record buttons are operable.  Just today my level meters stopped working.  Also, when I record, it says I'm recording, but nothing actually gets recorded.  So, I'm baffled.
