you got a good scratch mixer? what is it?
you also got decent carts?
if so ... warm up the decks, set them at 90 degrees and start that scratching like a mofo |

naw i like my dekz regular style :D
and yes i have good carts :) Ortofon Concordes to be exact :D they never skip on me...even when i try to make them :)
you dont need a scratch mixer to be able to scratch...i have a Pioneer DJM-600 :)
anyone that tells me you cant scratch with it is lieing...cuz ive seen djs get down with it..not only at clubs/raves...but on my very own :) (my friend tried to show me how to scratch...he put on a little show for me using it :D ) |

most battle/scratch/hip hop djs have there turntables "battle style"
its so the tonearm doesnt get in the way
also it keeps the dekz closer to the mixer for the quicker tricks |

hummmmm does the DJM 600 have a decent crossfader? With a steep curve or ajustable? cause if you're trying to scratch with a X curve you're gonna suck ... that is if you use your cross...
start working on these crabs and flares NOW! |

the 600 is fine for scratching - just set the fader curve to the setting where it cuts in real quick and doesnt dip... :)

i have a gemini ps626 pro2 and it sucks for scratching, the scratches don´t sound clean, i mean it just doesn´t cut it, i was looking at the internet to try to make a mod for my x-fader (the a-mod) but i think if i do it i will mess up my mixer
