[Shirazmataz]

Hey Masta Hanksta, thats some sick scratching bro! Did you produce the beat yourself? If so, what are the chances of getting a download? Also, a tutorial on how you transform/twiddle/crab out those notes and record movement would be great!! Hope to see one soon!

[andonnay]

Can someone post the .tsi file for Traktor pro?

[TuningFreak23]

please do a scratch tutorial!

[Mu5ik4Life]

[mauricerrr]

does the vestax spin work with windows on an amd cpu?

[michaellewisjohn2]

@mauricerrr no its mac only.

[julioboostamante1]

@mauricerrr

IM trying to find this out myself as i have this for my mac but my brother has an AMD powered Laptop.

anyone know if its possible?

[chadderbocks]

@julioboostamante1 yes it possible. I have vmware running on my Windows 7 box. I loaded Mac OS 10 on the virtual machine so I can run Mac programs. You can do vice versa! I didn't wan to buy a Mac so I just put Mac on my window box! Enjoy!

[LilLou262]

u can do this exact type of thing with the vestax typhoon right? plz respond :)))

[duronski]

Fuck Homie!!!! I've been scratching for years and was thinking about getting this so I can make short films for my students during lessons to make them more interesting. You just convinced me. Much Love Pomona, Ca.

[nickhclp]

how do u customize ur faderz?



[djscratchdog]

@nickhclp I took them off my old Numark Mixer and put some tape in it to keep it from falling off ;)

[Phraktion]

@djscratchdog i've had my spin for almost a year, love it. Djay software is great but i wish i could map it with traktor or serato :P

[korvlord]

@djscratchdog where can you get stickers for your disks?, great mix btw

[7o7munoz7o7]

hahaha fuckin killed it!!! good shit!!

[sater1998]

[jkane121]

dudes married

[1nTr4nceW3Tru5t]

how much does all that cost? because i was thinking on buying...

[nickyseek]

Alright so i have the numark mixtrack....great but i want a turntable to crab scratch to i was looking at vinal but its alot of money shouldi save up for vinal or get this little machine? will it scratch like viynal?

[penzilla27]

Turntablism on the 21st Century! Hehe! Dude! You literally gave a good finger f*ck on this vestax! Good friggin job sir! Hehe! :D

[LilLou262]

plz tell me i dont need a mac to use this...

[obexproductions]

@LilLou262 You do. But there are many great options for PC that work just as well if not better.

[Djkolle1]

witch song do you use?? have a vestax typhoon and i can't do like that

[pikkparis]

hooow do you get the scratching sound?? I just got mine and I'm a noob at this.. Mine doesnt scratch, it only forwards or something..

[EspeshallyWittyTV]

@pikkparis to get your vestax to scratch you need to have it in scratch mode. right now you're in forward mode, meaning the button next to the headphones button (for pre-cueing) is lit up. In order to scratch you need to turn that button off

[MrDeejayMZ]

Where did you get the stickers on the decks, cuz i need some so bad!!

[IamAntoine]

hey nice scratching

i was wonderin if u would recommend the vestax typhoon (spin for pc) or the mixtrack pro

[TheKevinisbest]

@djscratchdog hey i like ur video and i have a question. im a beginner disk jockey and im gonna dj alot of house party but sometimes im gonna scratch just like what u just did.. i really cant decied.. what should i get? vertax typhoon or numark mixmaster pro? or maybe another suggestion?

[foreverGraceby]

Where did you get the stickers for it are they custom made or did you make them your self

[devilozzo]

Wow!!! Can you tell me what you used to jog? slide the fingers when i scratch...

[P4raLiZ0r]

great vid! I have the same question as "gualiamo" - how do you get the scratching too sound like that? can you please do an tutorial? I have the vestax spin and i have no idea how to get this to sound like that! Please give an tutorial with example sounds and detailed instructions! Would be much appreciated! Thanks! Greetings from austria!

[djscratchdog]

@P4raLiZ0r that's because I do not use the microphone from the camera.

I record directly into the computer using soundtrack.

[littomack]

@djscratchdog So is it not as clear, as in "real" hearing?

The way you recorded it sounds freaking SICK. But i hope it sounds like that in real life.

I'm thinking about buying this Vestax Spin. I've been watching all your videos! You've inspired me so much! Is there any way you can hook me up with the mp3 file, that you use to scratch? (the same files you used to scratch in the video) . I just need to practice, and have fun with it... in order to become my own bedroom DJ.

[troyluciano12]

4 thumbs up! whats that beat your using? can i have a copy?

[DarkBobee]

bad ass

[Frankycent1]

Is the "vestax spin" the same as the "vestax Typhoon" only for mac or is there a difference?

[totallyairplanecrazy]

@Frankycent1 Basically the same thing, except spin is more for mac... I have a mac, but i am looking more towards toward typhoon because traktor is also compatible with mac :)

[djsmoovcuttz]

Do you know if the vestax typhoons cross fader works the same. as in good for scratching

[guiliamo]

djscratchdog, how do you get the scratching too sound like that? when i try it just sounds real digital..can you scratch like that on any song? or do you need a scratch sample??

[skribblez01]

this is fuken sick!

[InDefDubstep]

Hey man good job, lookin ta get these for christmas, just got the software its bomb

[rootsbros]

hey dj mastahanksta, thank you much for all yout tutorials on youtube, it helps me a lot for starting with the vestax spin !

I would like to know the name of the track you're scratching on ?

thank you and keep going .

[WadeWestTv]

crabs?

[DjBuzzElectro]

i love the scratching. but in my opinion, the Mixtrack Pro controller beats the hell out of this typhoon. you probly heard of it buy now? its the one tht every1 is buying. tht mixtrack is great for scratching, either the same as this or better.

[MrPointnshoot]

OMG SO GOOD IM SWEATING!

[jaymcneil]

What song are you scratching with?

[101binary101]

DANG! THAT IS AWESOME! DUDE did you got to a DJ school or something? NICE MIX!

[ifone77]

which one is better the vestax spin or the vestax typhoon?

[TheRunescapefreak99]

I am getting a vestax spin and I am new and i dont know what to start off on. mixing or scratching?

[Markourass]

perfect scratching!!

[psajmonpl]

It's a diference when u actually scratch the track and just push the button

[Triattack007]

I got it yesterday it's rally cool

[Cory2121212121]

Dude where do you get covers for your jog wheels ?

I want to get some for my Typhoon,

[ifone77]

@Cory2121212121 does it matter typhoon on the spin?

[spingod]

You killed it. Nice job.

[liveurlife20]

I have this and the scratching doesn't sound like this. But when i use my friends it does. I'm confused but, now that I'm getting more gigs i'm gonna move to the VCI-100 or VCI-300. Would you recommend that?

[mackayeiscool]

can u teach urself yo dj or does it take leson and im also 13 and dont know really anything

[123danle]

hey masta Hanksta just wondering wats the name of the track that your scratching towards iv tryed looking for it but no luck Thanks mate and ur awsome aye

[SuperPluto10]

Is this a good start for Djing. Im thinking about getting this!

[djscratchdog]

@SuperPluto10 Yes The vestax spin is awesome I have been taking it to all my gigs and it hasn't let me down.

[SuperPluto10]

@djscratchdog could I teach myself how to Dj, or do I need to take classes. Im 22 and want to get into this. Thanks!

[101binary101]

@djscratchdog Hey I saw your test on the ventax spin. BTW you are really good at DJing. I am hoping to get started in all the DJ businessmen. I understand that the Ventax Typhoon is the same thing as the Ventax Spin. Do you recommend the Ventax Typhoon over the Numark Mixtrack Pro? Please help me with this.

Thank You.

[AjpDns1200]

am i missing something here i didnt think the spin or the typhone had crossfade curve so how are you scratching so good

[djcrossfade]

sick have u tryed the Audio Innovate Innofader in it

[4050N]

Can this device be "Hamster-ized"?

[EternalSouljah1]

@djscratchdog How have the vestax held up so far after all of that intense scratching.. Im looking to get a controller, im just beginning but I saw the typhoon and was considering.. I mainly want to scratch and just make personal mixes.. Do you think this is a good setup.

[djscratchdog]

@EternalSouljah1 Its held up pretty good But I take good care of my stuff.

Typhoon is the same thing only tailored towards PC.

I realy like the djay software but its only for mac.

[djsmoovcuttz]

hey masta hanksta does the spin have a cross fader curve

[djscratchdog]

@djsmoovcuttz Yes it does

[JelleErmerins]

where you can buy stickers for the jog wheels for spin and typhoon?

[JelleErmerins]

where you can buy stickers for jog wheels for vestax spin and typhoon??

[zinkypip]

YOU REAL HOTT DAWG!!!!!!! !) STARZ

[wsgchamp123]

looks sweet im lookin in to getting the spin, but all ive heared from people is that its good for smaller gigs. how do you think it holds up for its price?

[therandomfellow]

can i use this on a pc????

[VonoJenks]

WTF, how'd u learn how 2 get so nice?

[fipsfoxy]

@VonoJenks the million dollar question: choose wisely

a) a miracle -

b) by accident -

c) practice -

:)

[nfmstuff]

i was thinking about getting a vci-300 but came across this controller and now i'm interested. i spin on turntables and use torq but i want to get something that is smaller and portable for house parties and stuff like that. how does this hold up against the vci-300? the price is really attractive

[djscratchdog]

@nfmstuff Compared to a vci-300 the spin is lighter but the vci is a better build a quality.

As long as you do not bang around the spin its great for smaller gigs.

[nfmstuff]

@djscratchdog thanks for the quick response. how is the latency on the software compared to serato itch? i'm actually a PC user so i'm looking into the windows version of this unit (the typhoon).

i really wish i could just get my hands on both units and try them out myself.

[aly0512]

i have a vestax how is that scratching when the volume is down and the lights aint even going just a question

[djscratchdog]

@aly0512 That because the knobs were set low and I used the computer mouse on screen to adjust the volume instead of the faders.

[djwise4u]

@aly0512 i noticed that tooo!!!!!

[djwise4u]

@aly0512 i noticed that too

[zhinuya]

how did you set the slider? mine doesnt that sensetive at all.!!!!!!???

[arod006]

Hey awsome once again...i just ordered the Mk4 from Hercules. Cant wait to get it and start practicing...Gonna take lessons at Scratch nyc

[ArApAdAs]

nice! i've been looking for some demos of the vestaxs' in action. thanks bruh.

[krazygyal]

This scratch is mad which sample do u use?

[monkeyguy5ROX]

Where did you get the stickers for the vestax spin's jog wheels? There are only 2 dumb ones on their website

[djscratchdog]

@monkeyguy5ROX I printed those myself on CD paper.

[tranjohn]

@djscratchdog Aren't the jog wheels touch sensitive? How can u still scratch with the sticker on top of the jog wheels? Can u do the same to the vci100 and 300 jog wheels?

[djscratchdog]

@tranjohn yes I had to play with the sensitivity knobs after I put the stickers on...

It can be done ;)

[jcdent798310]

did you make that jog wheel cover? or did u get it customly factory made? I want to know how you got that done so I can make a vinyl style cover.

[DXBassassin]

your a beast :O!!

[TheBamboo412]

Crazy scratching on the Spin man!! The Spin is working great for me. I use it for smaller parties and graduation parties. Basically anywhere I don't want to take my Technics, which I save for the clubs and bars. Would anyone on here know how to get the Spin mapped to Traktor?

[TurnThatDamMusicDown]

ur fucking SICK!!!

[TurnThatDamMusicDown]

holy fuck, dude!

[remusat0r]

Hi.

The video is awesome !

I would like to buy this machine. But i have some questions.

1, The EQ sliders. Aren't turnable knobs better then sliders ? Dont you miss frequency kill function ?

2, There are no FX buttons on this. Are there ? Don't you miss it ?

3, How are the jogs, body and crossfaders ?

4, Are'nt corssfaders too tought ? Are the easily to move ?

I am affraid that crossfaders will worn off, by using at hiphop ane moveing so fast as you..

Is the material good ? No shitty plastics ?

[koolrican]

now that u've had the Spin for awhile now,how is holding up to all ur tests and abuse?In ur opinion is it a decent machine to have to play with at a gig or just at home?..thanks bro

[djscratchdog]

@koolrican The Spin is still holding up tight I have to admit it is well worth it for 250.00.

I use it for wedding gigs and house parties great product.

[PlaidBlackBirds]

How do you get the track to start playing so quickly after your done spinning it?

With mine Ill move the "record" and it will take a good half second for the track to play at normal speed again, but with yours it looks like it starts back up again instantly which sounds great.

BTW this video is one of the reasons I got a Spin so THANK YOU

[PlaidBlackBirds]

@PlaidBlackBirds

Oh and one more thing! I looked for the sample of this sound on your website and could not find it. This is by far the best sounding one I've heard and Ive been using your other samples but I really want to get ahold of this one. Thanks!

[n1nebreaker]

cool. that's really good. it's just so odd to watch digital scratching because with vinyl, you're used to seeing the whole record and u watch it to return to spinning. The jog wheel only moves where u put it. good stuff though. i dig

[1italianboy]

You rock man, I used to scratch on vinyl and I thought digital wasn't as good but hey: I wanna try now !

Keep it up.

[ScorchinBeats]

Holy. Shit... Thumbs up that was fucking badass!

[LonelyVietz]

wow so damn good for digital scratching! btw can you gimme the sample that you were using for the scratching?

[djscratchdog]

@LonelyVietz you can download sample on my website for free...

[JMini17]

Hey,

Did you some how load a scratch pattern to deck A?

If so where did you get it, it sounds good.

Ps might you drop a line as to where you got it?

[glzach]

Very nice stuff, did you custom make your jog wheel stickers? If so how? Thanks and again very sharp cuts.

[stathisam]

the spin/typhoon work with traktor pro ?? or any other dj software?

[bigbarcelona23]

The scratching and the video is SUPERB. Love the stickers in the platter and I hope that the Typhoon is just as great as the Spin.

P.S.

I can't believe there are two morons that dislike the vid.

[AwesomeGamer64]

that's crazy!

[Emilos7634]

Nice one

[1nnovate]

I don't know why man, but I could never get into electro beats like this. Dunno why.

[keanupogi777]

how come the gain volume is down on the left audio channel and the LEDs' not flashing as if there are no sound coming out while you're scratching?

[djscratchdog]

@keanupogi777 Thats because I used the computer mouse to turn the gain up and the gauge was still on off position.

Had I moved the gauge it would have synced with the computer again.

[3bdullaziz]

good job!

[79rent]

best shit u posted so far... the "ahhhh" sounds dope!

[koldkuts2]

[DV13Tech]
