what other techniques can u currenly perform?

1 clcik flares, 2 click flares, 3 click flares, chirps, chirp-flares (1 or 2 click), orbits, orbit flares (2-1), etc.

you can use the crab technique to do a bunch of the moves listed above, but if you cant do them with just the wrist method 1st, your crabs are gonna sound very off beat.....gotta walk b4 u crawl

ur talkin japenese to me man...

i've been dj'in for 14 years, so i know i gotta start small. i just never had a decent crossfader to start "crabbing". so i got the vestax, but i wanna know if anyone uses the spacers. anybody?

im pretty nice with transforming, and i can almost "crab", but not the way u guys do it. 14 years deep so i'm far from a newbie at this. just curious about spacers.

the stock vestax is fine.....

and 14 yrs before u purchase a decent mixer????

sumthin aint right

i've been thru 5 gemini mixers in 14 years. i would always get discouraged with the "crab" and give up. so i bought a vestax specifically to learn to "crab".
better?

the yougins dont deserve what was originally typed so i removed it!!!!!!

jaem is talkin rubbish, theit doesnt matter what position you start the fader for a crab, i personaly start with it in the off possition but the crab is just really a lil techneek that you bring into all the scratches he mentioned . its all about combos man. just dop what you feel, playing a turntscratching is like a jazz sax player.

well, dont say i didnt try being nice and generous.....


time to erase the rubbish

i didnt see what u typed jaem, but i 'ppreciate the feedback-- from everyone.

which pmc are you using? 05 06a 07 07isp 007 08???

the spacers dont make much of a difference. comming from someone whos been using a 06 to scrach with for about 3 and 1/2 years. and whos been keeping up with the art of scratching.

its the 06. im just gonna have to get used to it. ive been usin a beat up fader for the last couple of years, so its just gonna take a little while.

later.

i use an 07 but ive used the 05 and 06 alot, thy both nice, you should be ok with ur 06 man.

good luck.
