 In the last couple of weeks, on EBAY I've seen at 
least 3 
mice.  They eventually go for $70.  (the S760's are black)  I've 
kept mine from the S550 I owned for my 2 S760's.  It is white. 
OK. $80 is the one I saw. $80 for a mouse? So what if they are hard 
to find. I bought the S550 for less than $80.

 You can stop that cursor problem and still us the front
panel 
instead of a mouse by setting up the S550 with a configuration 
change. I forgot the instruction. It should be in the manual that 
you can get on the Roland site. 
I didn't understand you at first, but now I get it. I just started up 
the S550 with the "1" key pressed down, and that gave the front panel 
control back. Thanks!

Now onto the fun.
