Phew, what a day

Thankfully I've never 'reverse triggered' or 'no triggered', but I have had the phantom power switch get knocked once during a tape-change, and recorded a few minutes with no sound. Thankfully it was a rehearsal session, no big deal- I noticed the levels were dead and fixed it, wondering how I managed to hit the switch. I think it would be helpful if there was an OSD warning to say- "no audio input", just briefly after you hit record.. incase your xlr cable is loose/ detatched, or 48v is off, etc... there's probably load of other little things it could/should remind you off. Like xlr attenuation-- another one that could conceivably get knocked by handling in and out of a bag. It shouldn't be that hard for it to say in small red letters, (attenuating: left, right: no signal) .. with option to enable/disable such warnings in the menus.
