<p>
Ardour is designed to work best with a <dfn>three button mouse</dfn>
equipped with a <dfn>scroll wheel</dfn>.
</p>
<p>
It can be used with a two button mouse or touchpad, but at least two key
operations will not (easily) be available to you:
</p>
<ul>
<li>time-constrained region copying</li>
<li><a href="/using-control-surfaces/midi-learn/"><abbr title="Musical
Instrument Digital Interface">MIDI</abbr> bindings</a>
created by "learning" them from incoming MIDI data</li>
</ul>
<p>
You are strongly encouraged to invest in a three-button mouse. You will
find that a good quality mouse (especially one with a weighted,
latchable scroll wheel) will make your use of Ardour vastly more
efficient. They are cheap, and time is not.
