I'm aware that the sound quality sux and that the cuts are a little too high, but it's only a practice snippet + I like to have the volume of the skratching a bit higher than normal when I practice cause it makes it easier to hear what's going on and what I need to be tighter on. Thanks again! Peace! <{POST_SNAPBACK}> A good thing to keep in mind when scratching/recording is to turn down your low end on your eq's (for your sample) as when you manipulate ahhh/fresh you don't really want any extra low frequencies you might pick up from your hands touching the vinyl. It also helps define your cut in comparison to the beat so you don't have to bump your cut volume in respect to the beat. ...end result, a much cleaner sound and easier for you to pick over your technique without making the file unlistenable.
