Anyone use a Yamaha AW1600 - operational question

Anyone here still using a Yamaha AW1600 or is familiar with their operation ?

I had one a few years ago and sold it but I just got another one and I'm having an issue and I don't know if it's me or if the new machine isn't working correctly

After I record a few tracks (direct not to stereo bus) and I go back to play them/mix them, no matter what they are all playing out of the headphones. AS soon as I turn the stereo fader up all tracks are playing. It should work where you don't hear them unless the channels fader is turned up, and then only by the amount the channels fader is up.

I don't remember it being this difficult when I owned the unit before, so I think maybe there is something wrong with it. Any suggestions from users on what I might be doing wrong?

Any assistance appreciated
