Final Scratch://FS_Linux

Play Digital...The Analog Way!

Final Scratch is a unique technology that allows real-time manipulation and even scratching of digital music files such as .MP3, .WAV, .AIF using any standard turntable and mixer set-up. A DJ can now mix and scratch digital music the way they have always done it, by hand...with vinyl.

Final Scratch uses time-code pressed on vinyl records to manipulate the sound files on the computer's hard drive. As the record moves back and forth on the turntable, so does the digital music file on the computer.

Final Scratch is the best and only real bridge for the DJ to enter and control the digital world!
