What
is Final Scratch?
Final Scratch is the best and only real bridge for the
professional and home DJ to enter and control the digital
world. By using any standard turntable/mixer setup, a DJ can
now manipulate digital music the way they have always done
it...by hand and by vinyl. DJs can now mix both analog records
and digital files the way they have always been accustomed to
and prefer.
Just load any digital audio file onto your computer, then
pick and choose from your own playlist. Your computer becomes
your record box. As well for the professional, save and load
any production, remix, or new edit you have created and play
it that very moment or take it to gig the same night without
the need to cut an acetate or make test pressings.
Final Scratch allows mixing of digital audio files,
controlled with any DJ turntable. The FS10K package includes
three special vinyl records, the Scratch Amp to connect the
computer to your existing turntable/mixer setup, and the Final
Scratch software. An FS10K system, which supports 2
turntables, includes the Final Scratch software, the Scratch
amp, and 2 FS vinyl records.
The Final Scratch software allows the user to save the
audio files in various playlists, called Record Boxes, as well
to search and assign the audio files to either turntable. The
software provides a visual representation of the music, needle
position for each audio file, and remaining time of each audio
file.
The vinyl records included in the final Scratch, which
contain digital information, are used to mix digital audio
files like MP3, WAV, AIFF, and audio CD. All mixing is done
directly from the turntables, including pitch shifting, cuing,
spinning up and down, and even scratching. The final scratch
records can be used in combination with traditional analog
records when mixing your set.
The Scratch Amp acts as a powerful sound card to connect
all the components together to form the system. It provides 2
sets of phono inputs and outputs and 2 sets of line outputs.
The Scratch Amp processes the signal from the Final Scratch
records and sends it to the computer via USB.
