Skratch It

…but a few things are missing for this to be the best scratch dj app. The good: Skratch presets….cant say enough regarding how awesome and realistic they are. The ability to load your own samples sets this apart from the other apps in a big way. Being able to record both beat and scratches is great but to be able to record scratches only even with a beat playing is what makes this a valuable tool for creation The bad: it would have been nice to be able to upload our own beats. It also would have been great to create or load different scratch patterns besides the ones already there. The import function for samples is not user friendly and it is annoying that the sample must be 16bit 44.1 kHz wav file format otherwise it won’t get recognized. If you could do something about those things, that’d be awesome.

I’ve always wanted to tinker with a DJ setup. Now, i understand it’s all digital but the app makes you feel like you’re doing a great job. There’s loads of ways to convert sounds on your phone with other apps to make it a wav file. I’m looking forward to using this to scratch over my own beats. I’ve got an SP404mk2 with audio jack plugged into the external. And I have a nice fun portable little setup and this right here is my final piece of the puzzle. I’m beyond happy with this and look forward to what the future has in store for this app. Amazing work!

Please please please: 1 - AUv3 support is a must for serious musician tools today. 2 - leftie-interface toggle is a must too! I know we are only 10% of the population, but most proficient scratchers use TWO tables or more, and hence this is needed more than just for “us lefties”. Plus, should be relatively simple to add…! 3 - would love if it could take a buffer that is being filled live (that is, loading this as an AUv3 effect processor, which has a buffer for incoming audio which in turn we can scratch (even if the audio is fed live), naturally this would mean you can’t “go forward” from the point the buffer is currently at, but it would still be nice to be able to do back-scratches on stuff that is happening “in real time”). Please do consider these options, I see this app is getting traction but honestly I’ve been waiting forever for a tool like this, but one that is an AUv3. Thanks for everything!
