User Manual 19/30
As the music playing on Deck B is nearing its end, start moving the cross fader to the left and
then launch playback when you want to start making the switch. Adjust the EQ on Deck A as you
continue to move the cross fader, until it is completely to the left and your audience only hears
what is playing on Deck A.
Congratulations: you’ve just done your first mix! As you practice and get to know both your DJ
Control Steel and the VirtualDJ software better, you'll see just how versatile this mixing system is
and how much freedom it gives you to take your music to places you've only dreamed about. As
you continue to learn how everything functions and try out different approaches, you'll soon get
the hang of mixing and find ways of working that are right for you. After all, you're the DJ, and the
audience is in your hands!
8.3. Scratching
The DJ Control Steel allows you to scratch your MP3s and CDs in the same way that a DJ
scratches vinyl records. To do this you will use the DJ Control Steel’s jog wheels, together with
the cross fader to boost/interrupt the sound.
There are many scratch effects, the most well-known of which are described below:
Baby Scratch
No need to use the volume control for this basic scratch. It consists of doing a forward scratch,
immediately followed by a backward scratch.
Tear Scratch
The Tear Scratch doesn’t use the volume control either. As with the Baby Scratch, you do a
forward scratch followed by a backward scratch, but this backward scratch is broken down into
two different speeds: you must first scratch quickly, and then slowly. Thus, the different steps are
as follows: forward scratch, quick backward scratch, slow backward scratch.
Forward Scratch
You must do a forward scratch and then quickly lower the volume to its minimum setting before
doing a backward scratch to return to the initial position and restore the volume. Only the forward
scratch will be audible.
Backward Scratch
The reverse of the Forward Scratch: you must do a backward scratch and then quickly lower the
volume to its minimum setting just before doing the forward scratch, and then restore the volume.
Pass-Pass
The Pass-Pass is not a scratch technique, strictly speaking, since it uses the scratch as well as
other elements (pitch, cross fader, etc.) to create new compositions. To carry out this technique
you must play the same piece on both decks, and then it’s up to you to make use of the DJ
Control Steel’s functions to create new rhythmic combinations by alternating your manipulations
on each deck. A perfect mastery of the cross fader and of the basic scratch techniques is
required, as well as a good sense of rhythm and excellent familiarity with the piece.
