Week 14: Clover Tear

Scratch Overview

Clover Tears are essentially faderless 1 click flairs. The object is to cut the sound in half by pausing the record with your hand quickly. 2 tears forward, 2 tears backward. This gives a more rounded/legato sound than the 1 click flair but achieves the same number of notes.

Scratch Notations: The BOTTOM of the graph (where the blue line begins) is the start of the scratch sample. The TOP of the graph (where the blue line peaks) is the end of the scratch sample. PUSH the record FORWARD from BOTTOM to TOP and PULL the record BACK from TOP to BOTTOM. The distance from LEFT to RIGHT of the graph is the speed of how fast you move the record.
