话题: Here are five general scratch tips:

由于该帖子已年深日久,可能包含陈旧过时或描述错误的信息。

There are over 60 different scratch techniques (i.e., the "chirp," the "crab," the "baby scratch," the "orbit," etc.). Unless you're an aspiring turntablist, it's not important to know these different scratch techniques (especially if you're not playing hip hop).

Here are five general scratch tips:

1. Do not scratch over the words of songs;
2. Loud & excessive low-end scratching can damage the woofers and is annoying (especially in nightclubs);
3. Don't play the scratch louder than the song you're scratching over;
4. Unless it's expected by the crowd (i.e., you're a turntablist), don't over-scratch (it wears out the effect's novelty and you may appear to be showing off);
5. For new jocks, utilize specific tracks t are designed for scratching (i.e., lots of samples).

Here is what I have used...

1. Ultimix has a CD/Tracks that have tons of old school scratches (search the file sharing networks for Ultimix Scratch)
2. Pioneer was distributing a test CD at one of the DJ shows with many samples to show off their CDJ-1000 (good luck on finding this)
3. Mirage 2000 has Breakers Yard CD's Volumes 1, 2, and 3 (Search google for Mirage 2000 Breakers Yard)

Ideally you need a clean sample. Most scratch sources have blank space between the tracks so that you don't accidently start playing the next sample.

Play around! Maybe one day, virtual dj will be able to scratch with real vinyl?

Hey Wireless, i was one of the best ''scratch'' djs in my
Country, and awarded for this (DMC DJ CHAMPIONSHIPS)
some years ago, now I'm ''digital'' dj like you, but also i'm
the dj and member of a hip-hop group
(and i scratch a lot for live and studio)
www.apopsis.8m.com for more info
My rule for scrathing is : there are no rules...
You can scratch almost everything, even with no records...
use your fingers to scratch the needle to produce sound
for example... if you do it right.
Imagination is the only needed...
As for the question if you can do it with software,
the answer is YES with final scratch and D-vinyl.
I hope Virtual Dj will follow...
I can tell you that i feel very happy to see products like
these.. It looks like a digital re-born of the vinyl,
and is almost the same like the re-born for analog studio
equipment, using the latest music production
software and plug-ins.
See Cubase, Reason, NI pro-52 / FM7 ... for example.
All these have the ANALOG look, feel, and ...SOUND
(i use many of these tools for production)
Have a nice day (or night) !

Definition of Chirp Scratch - The chirp scratch is performed by fading the sound out with the crossfader as you push the record forward and fading the sound back in with the crossfader as you pull the record back. Done slowly the effect might not be too impressive, but done quickly and accurately, a chirp sounding scratch is the effect. While the concept is easy to understand, chirps are one of the hardest scratches to perfect with great speed and consistency
