This video is a tutorial on the basic fundamentals on scratching. I have done a video like this a couple of years ago but this a clear up close and detailed video of things you should know to prepare your venture into the world of turntablism.

  • really appriciate big Bro !!! it cost abt 2000$ to learn all that trick in my country,........no kidding !! ofcourse i don't have 2k$ so,........thank you so much !!! u have our respect big Brother !!!

  • @DeejayIRyan - Glad the video helped you out! What country are you in?

  • Great tutorial Rick! Question though: what kind of samples or clips do you use for scratching? Is there a set of standard ones, or you just choosing parts of different songs?

  • @uptownxpress - You can use both. As long as there's sound coming out of your deck you can scratch it! :-)There are various samples you can find that DJ's put together. The sample used in this video is one of the commonly used samples. Otherwise you can take any part of any song and manipulate it. Same principle goes with video. I don't know if they still have it but you can get a disc of samples and beats from Promo Only called Mixxing Link: Vol 1

  • Hi Rick, thanks for the training and inspiration! I'm an old club DJ who has dug out his turntables and is hoping to learn scratching (wish me luck....) Hey re 'transformer' scratch - I'm pretty sure it got its name from the old days (before sharp curve crossfaders came along) when DJs would scratch using the channel PHONO/LINE switches. ie switches that 'TRANSFORM' the input between Phono and Line sensitivity. Phono=audible, Line=mute. Sound feasible? Cheers mate

  • Thanks for video!!! I really like your set up! Time for me to change too...

  • thanks real good 

  • Thanx Flip. These videos help and mean a lot. Keep them coming!

  • Nice Video Flip!

  • thanks!
