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