LOL. scratching is an artform that's hard to learn by reading about it. Its best to watch someone do it and try it yourself. Having said that, you can check out the description of most scratches here: http://www.asisphonics.net/theever.html
If you're serious bout scratching tho, i would recommend getting some dvds such as DJ Qbert's Do it yourself or DJ Shortee's DJ 101.

Have you ever heard halliwell? He will do the same scratch for like 10 minutes and NOT stop it. It sounds like total asshole.

I guess you dont know how to skeet.

i like scratchin with my phaser effect turned on when using my numark dxm06 mixer. you can sync the effects to the beat of the music and it sounds awsome when you turn on the phaser and scratch...

try it!

bisxo

I can not scratch to any form of EDM if my life depended on it. Hell I can't even scratch at all.

I'm a bit of a sucker for scratching, don't know any of the technical sides of it, but really liked that little scratchy scratchy.

Halliwell rarely scratches. He loads up the "ahh" sound in a CDJ, loops it ("aaa-aaa-aaa-aaa-aaa-aaa"), and then uses the Transform FX on a DJM-600 for 16th notes. ("aa aa aa aa aa aa aa aa aa aa")

Then, he just flips the platter around for pitch changes.


I have never seen him move the platter with one hand, and cut the sound with his other hand.

Originally posted by jamiepollock643 I just cannot for the life of me trying, find a good record with samples on it. Ive listened to loads...but none of them seem to have the rite samples for me to get used to and be able to use. Any recomendations?? The standard AHHH wud be cool. Lemme Know

I had that problem until I found this little gem: http://www.juno.co.uk/ppps/products...cratch%20weapon. Track 3 is the one you're looking for.

My life is now complete. Almost.

dun mean to hijack the thread, but found this kinda relevant.

but yea, i used to be on the boat that scratching over EDM is impossible and is a no-no...but over some particular songs and in a certain way, it actually does work. unfortunately, i don't know of any samples off-hand...one of these days, i will take the time to learn though cuz it can be done.

Cosmic Gate sometimes do a bak spin or just scratch a singel beat in there set , like at the end of a bar or build up...

and I love it

Strange. Don't mean to sound like a c**t but when I saw him he was scratching. Only about 3-4 times in an hour set, but I've got a vid of him moving his vinyl back and forth, twiddling with the X-fader.... y'know, scratching. I've heard him do other effects as well that can sound like scratching, but aren't, but he does scratch.

He only started doing that very recently as far as I know. I saw him in May and he was transforming with the crossfader.
