In the early days, a lot of people experimented with using mouse switches as an alternative to foot pedals (I did myself).  However, one problem frequently appeared - in order to preserve battery life, nearly all mice time out after a relatively short period.  This means, after a period of inactivity, connection is lost and at best, the first time you use a mouse button, nothing happens while the connection is remade.  

This might seem a minor inconvenience when experimenting at home, but it can be a major problem in the middle of a gig.

Hi GraemeJ, Thanks for your comments, I’m not using a Bluetooth mouse, it’s the remains of a disused corded usb mouse, easy enough to hack for this project. I wondered about using the middle track wheel button for returning to the song list library when pressed. This would be pedal three in the configuration’s,  any ideas for setting it up. Regards Dupe
