i keep hitting "v" when I am at work in my Word and Excel documents to save them every few minutes - - -  I just end up typing a "v".

I have on occasion inserted an eq on the track next to the track I want to eq and wonder why I don't hear any changes.

I have a hardware switch on my midi device to switch between "midi thru" and "usb" . . . I have many times cursed the "damn software"  for not working properly, only to realize it's the hardware switch that needs to be adjusted.
(I miss Alex too ?)

Ins and Outs on the patch bay, the jacks are right on top of each other - countless hours of signal path troubleshooting what's obviously a properly wired up chain...    Doh!!

More than guilty of everything mentioned.  I'm still going through it.  But it's more fun than being in a band in the '80s, lol.
 

Yikes !  . . . the 80's . . . magnetic tape, cassettes, dolby C, demagnetizing, record labels, publishing deals, copyright lawyers, big hair . . . No Sonar . . . let's not go there.

I think we all need a big red poster in our studio with the legend "KEEP CALM AND TROUBLESHOOT YOUR OWN ACTIONS"

My favorite is EQing a track to perfection, and sitting back listening in satisfaction to my tweaks and improvements.
Then later finding out the EQ was bypassed the whole time.

It's great to be an idiot :)
Just couldn't stop laughing (at myself).
I happened to be eq-ing track 1 which was soloed with my vs700 controller.....whilst all the time it was track 2's eq that was in focus. Not only did I NOT eq track1, at the same time I messed up track 2's settings.

I would grab the mouse and wonder why the cursor didn't move. It was my phone. (Finally) getting the smart phone fixed that for me. I still grab it but I know what it is right away.

Me too!  I think that I have lost control of the situation
