DJ Tutorial Pioneer CDJ in relation to a vinyl turntable

0:00 Another video on scratching on a CD player

Right guys, another video on scratching on a CD player. This guy here is the 900. Now this isn't necessarily a tutorial, it's more so a demonstration but also explaining to you what is happening in relation to this 900 player. First of all, the sound or the sample I'm using is the R sound, so let's have a listen. Now I want you to notice from the black line there where it starts... and where it finishes in relation to the sound you're listening to. Now, in other words, what's happening is starting there, and it's finishing there. So we've got that much space, that much room. But also, notice where my finger is here, and there. And notice the top, the platter, moving in relation to the black line and my finger. Okay, again.

This is more of a demonstration explaining what's going on. Let's press play pause. Watch my hand. Watch what I'm actually doing with my hand. My hand is lifting off the platter and I'm letting the sound move itself. And when I say the sound moves itself, logically, I'm letting it move at its own speed, its own accord. I'm not manipulating it in any way. And I can do that by taking my hand completely off the top. The DJ Tutor offers a wide range of options to choose from. The DJ Tutor offers a wide range of options to choose from. This is a lot to do with where you're comfortable with having your hand. For example, some people might want to have the hand there, there, here. It doesn't matter. If I've got my hand here at that point, then I'm bringing it back. So in other words, the move from there to there is almost the equivalent of my hand going from there over to here. Do you understand? Start again from that point. Make sure we're ready to go.

Now that's with my hand off the platter. On the other hand, what I could do is move it myself by keeping my hand on the platter. Now I'm in control of the speed. As opposed to... There you go, a bit of a demonstration for you. Practice and enjoy.
