mouse

n. mous v. mouz pl. mice

a term analog recording enthusiasts use to humorously refer to current generations of digital control surfaces (mixing boards.)

generally, these boards are inexpensive compared to their analog counterparts, are built using mostly plastic components.

because they are designed specifically for complete recording studio integration as a peripheral device for DAWs such as Pro Tools, their function is compared to that of a computer mouse.
