Week 15: Prism Tear

Scratch Overview

One of the most difficult preset tear patterns but can create a really intricate and fast scratch. 2 Forward, 1 Back, 1 Forward, 2 Back tear combo. This is the basis for the Prism Scratch - adding in a two-click flair orbit over top of this combo. Creates 6 notes in a triplet rhythm.

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.
