Week 21: Backwards

Scratch Overview

Exactly like the forward but backward. Start at the end of the sound with the fader closed. Open the fader as you pull the record back and close the fader as you get to the beginning of the sound. Then push the record back to the end of the sound and repeat.

Center Fader Position: Open/Closed

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.
