  • @darkitachi50 its called hamster style

  • why do you move the fader ?

  • How is it close when you move the fader toward it?

  • do you need a curtain vinyls to get scratches like that ?

  • Whats the name of the Song which is on the Vinyl you are scratching (the one with the green Label)?

  • @xkalibur45 it is called hamster style. some people find it more natural to scratch this way. you can try this but either turning your crossfader around, or switch the RCA inputs in the back, or your mixer might have a built in hamster switch.

  • every DJ scratches and Crossfades different...some used left deck others right...some used the crossfader the redular way or other used it backwards...it depends how one gets ued to, and feels confortable using it

  • it calls hamster feature, the crossfader changes the direction :)

  • so why are u using the table on the left, but opening the crossfader to the right? maybe I'm doing this backwards

  • you post a great vid, but why do u cross fade backwards. mabye something i dont know?
