Hello, hello, hello… 🔊 🔊 🔊
Ready to add some sweet special fx to your scratch game so your cuts sound like they’re echoing into outer space? 🌌
If you’re looking for an easy way to make your cuts sound more dynamic, the Echo Scratch is your new BFF.
In addition to uplevelling your scratch flow in general, Echoes provide you with a perfect way to begin or end any scratch phrase. Plus they look pretty badass when you flex ‘em. 😎
And here’s the best part — once you start practicing this scratch, you’ll unlock a whole new layer of creativity in your DJ mixes & routines. 🌟
Echoes are a really practical manual technique that you can add to your mix transitions & beat juggles as a super fresh way to enter or exit between two tracks, rather than just a typical cut or fade out.
Let’s dive into the ECHO scratch, scratch, scratch…🔊🔊🔊
🔊 HOW TO DO THE ECHO SCRATCH 🔊
🚦Start Position:
Volume Fader → BOTTOM (for Echo In)
Volume Fader → TOP (for Echo Out)ㅤ
Example: ECHO OUT RELEASE (Volume Fader TOP)

💥 MANTRA: “Together-Fader-Record”
✅ PRO TIP: You can perform ANY faderless scratch &/or rhythm on the record/jog wheel. Repeat that exact scratch &/or rhythm each time to create the ECHO effect with the volume fader.
Keep experimenting with different scratches and rhythms while applying the echo effect, and see what kind of magic you come up with. 🔥
Remember, practice makes progress, so don’t stress if it doesn’t feel perfect right away. Just keep at it, trust your instincts, and soon, you’ll be echoing like you’re scratching in the grand canyon! 🏞️
I hope you have fun flexin’ the ECHO scratch! 🔥🎶
