Turntable drumming on Handsonic HPD15 (by Franck Smith)

Turntable drumming and scratch technics on Handsonic HPD-15... IF POSSIBLE USE HEADPHONES WHEN VIEWING VIDEO MATERIAL OR CONNECT YOUR COMPUTER TO A QUITE DECENT SOUND SYSTEM.

N.B. The routines obtained here were partly inspired -- in their content and esthetic -- by turntablists Qbert and D-styles . Although nothing can rival real vinyl manipulation by experts, a personal adaptation of these techniques on Handsonic makes imagine new ways in real time electronics.
