Sep 20, 2008 - basically you need 2 turntables and a mixer or you can get a QFO but the turntables with the mixer is probably better to start off with.technics are the best turntables in my opinion.you also need slipmats to scratch with. the technics i have came with em so you can just use those. for a mixer just do some research on it and choose the best one to fit what you want to do. for a record i would recommend getting superseal. best scratch record in my opinion

Oct 1, 2008 - this guy is left handed, or he uses primary right hand for control fader?
armvent Says:
Oct 8, 2008 - nah im right handed and i man the fader with my right hand.it makes it easier if you are doing the more advanced scratches.
armvent Says:

MakaShino Says:
Nov 16, 2008 - Well I got a bit of knowledge haha.Technics SL-1200 MK5's are the most popular, but also expensive.I'm trying to get a Numark turntable, because its cheap.If you wanna use software like Rane Serato, or Virtual DJ, you gotta get a high torque turntable, like a Numark TT200.Thats all I know for now.
rissacher Says:
Nov 17, 2008 - k thanks im gonna get a hybrid turntable though. its the Gemini CDT-05MKII
MakaShino Says:

Nov 19, 2008 - He doesn't explain things very well. Check Q-Berts DIY series for the definitive learn to scracth package, he breaks every scratch down and really makes it easy for someone who can't tell their flares from their orbits.
