Thanks for your help :D Baby Edit The cut scratch is also known as a release, chop or stab (sometimes even 'sampling' when done at a basic level), and involves both hands. The record is released (the scratching hand lets the motor take control) whilst the fader is open to let the sound out the speakers, and then the fader is closed whilst the record is rewound back to the start of the sample.
If this scratch is to be performed fast rhythmically, the scratching hand must gently push the sound forward to let it catch up to speed quickly (especially true with very slippy slipmats). Tear A tear is a more complex version of the baby scratch; the fader is always open but the record movement is altered so that on either the forwards or backwards movement has a short stop in it where the record comes to rest very briefly.
Chirp A chirp is a fast scratch that if done right and fast enough can sound like a bird chirping. Uzi Transform Flare Twiddle Crab Eight-finger crab Tweak Laser Phaser Hydroplane Others. DJ Techniques.
