Hi everyone,

I know this is off topic but I wanted to post it for the simple fact that there may be people here that have the same problem as I do. I suffer from Carpal Tunnel Syndrome and it does at times get in the way of my music creativity. I stumbled across a great mouse that has helped ease the pain and get me back in the swing of things again.

If you do intense hours of audio editing and your hands hurt during or after, this mouse may be the answer you have been looking for. Take a look and see if it is something that you could use. Check it out: Click Here

I hope this helps someone. Thanks and good luck!

Yea man, it may not happen to you but it may happen to other. I have Carpal Tunnel Syndrome and I felt maybe I could help others that may have it as well. That's all!

I have a graphics tablet, it works like a mouse. I don't use it unless I'm drawing or doing photowork but you use it like a pen, so it's comfortable.

I might have to pick one of these up. Does it work with pro tools?

If you are talking to me Mike-P, a graphics tablet works just like a mouse, so yes it will work in Protools.

This mouse does work in place of a regular mouse. Anything that your normal mouse can do this one can... It's a mouse but just with a different shpe. Nothing different...

I am afraid that thing is way too small for my hands. Speciality mice usually are.
