Mouse advice sought please!

Hi

I'm after a new mouse for use with FSP8. Requirements are:

1. Suitable for left hand use only - I don't have a right one any more!
2. Bluetooth
3. Horizontal scrolling and vertical
4. Large (ish) hands

Any thoughts most welcome - thankyou!

I use a Kensington trackball - the older style with the larger ball and 4 buttons

Many thanks, interesting...

Do you refer to Kensington Expert Mouse which has 4 buttons?

Pls could you share your experience with it?

Thanks for your help!

Yes on Expert Mouse. No downsides for me. Buttons are programmable and no chasing a mouse around.

I've exclusively used the Kensington Expert mouse since they first made them.
Had them permanently installed in my SSL & Harrison consoles back in the early 90's.

Horizontal scrolling and vertical

I have a Logitech MX Master that has both a regular (vertical) wheel and a thumb wheel for horizontal scrolling. That's on my home/business PC. My music system has another Logitech mouse that lacks the thumb wheel, and I often miss it. So I understand your desire for the feature. Maybe you can find something that suits you from these:
Left Handed Logitech mouse
Left handed mouse in general

I will second the suggestion to consider a trackball. A trackball was instrumental in keeping me working when I had problems using my hands. - s

Good links, thanks

Fwiw, some people have difficulties working with a trackball mouse. I had one, couldn't get used to it. I gave it to my wife, and she loves it. I now have a vertical mouse, which is something I can really work with.
