Another Vid of CDX in action.

taken from www.scratchworx.com

Sorry to inflict more pain and agony on your already tortured ears but I've got another video of me on the CDX for you.

No more than an unedited practice session, this features a few tricks that I've been playing with over the last few weeks. 9 minutes long and full of mistakes and generally crap scratching but it gives an idea of how the CDX works and sounds. Frankly, I can't be bothered to clean up the movie - it's a warts and all view of my fast electro scratching.

It's a 20 meg WMV file so if you know someone with an ADSL connection, get them to download it for you. I've had to keep it large because the audio needs to be top quality.

Honestly this CDX is insane, just why did they make it look like that..

Watch the marker on the record closely.
its position relative to the sound is not constant- it drifts

Exactly what is that?

He's still better than me, but I think its a pretty good vid to show people what its like, the more info about various products the better, makes it easier to make a choice.

How does this table work ??

Is that a vinyl ???

It's not a vinyl table, but it looks and acts like one. It's actually a digital CD turntable.

I tried it a while ago, it was hella dope. That marker on the record is actually accurate as to where the position of the "stylus" would be on an actual deck.

Yea good thing about it is it feels like vinyl because that is a real record on top, you can't take it off or anything, but the feel is the exact same.

tite! i played with some digital vinyl decks at guitar center, it's almost too complex some of the models... but arh what i'd give to get/learn one of these

Posted by DJ FireWire on Aug-04-2004 04:05:

The vinyl on top doesn't feel EXACTLY like a real record. It's a bit thinner and cheaped out on the material. It's also a lot more slippery.
