Week 39: Boomerangs

Scratch Overview

The Boomerang scratch is basically a continuous Aquaman. The trick is to leave the fader open at the end of the forward and reverse record movements. This turns the scratch into a 2 click pattern, starting from fader closed, over continuous babies.

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.
