My mouse has a few extra buttons that can be mapped to keyboard or mouse inputs. I use one of those buttons to activate my microphone. I've mapped the mouse button to the break key to minimize interference with other programs, but it still has problems. For instance, if I am using the command prompt and activate the mic then ^C will be entered.

Is there a way to create a new input value that I could map to my mouse then bind to an application that wouldn't be used by any other application?

I am using a Razar Taipan mouse with Razer Synapse software on Windows 7. The VoIP software I'm using is Discord, but I'm open to using a different app.

    Some mouse software like [Logitech setpoint](http://support.logitech.com/en_nz/article/Configure-Application-Specific-settings-with-Logitech-Options-software) can assign app specified hotkeys. A general approach is to use autohotkey, write your own code to [handle different window](https://autohotkey.com/docs/commands/WinActive.htm) and assign the mouse to that program. – lex May 19 '17 at 06:06
  • Is there a specific reason this is tagged with [discord] and [razer-synapse]? If that Razer is the specific mouse you're using, you should mention it in the question – Stevoisiak May 21 '17 at 01:20
  • @StevenVascellaro I've updated the question – sissonb May 21 '17 at 02:04
  • @Chris.C That's exactly the feature I'm looking for, too bad Razer doesn't currently support it. I'm going to look into autohotkey a bit now. – sissonb May 21 '17 at 02:10
