Awesome video DJ Immortal, your Crab 🦀 skratches are clean & tight sounding my ninja, really sounding great man, definitely gotta work on my 🦀 skratches, for sure, its awesome seeing someone else that skratches & crossfades, the same way as me, when it comes to form. I skratch with my right-hand, & use my left-hand on the Fader. But, not to many peeps use the crossfader in regular mode these days. Ive noticed alot of people like Hamster style, & skratch with their left-hand. So its always refreshing, when I can learn from a pro, who's using the same form, & fader form, that I use, just opposite hands, but besides that, it really helps with the learning curve for myself, & is extremely appreciated, on my end with the learning aspect, my friend. Your awesome DJ Immortal, great video, I appreciate these videos more than words can describe. Good times my ninja, thank you, Hàppy Holidays!! & Mad Respex Fam, & Big Upz, & Mad Love to DJ Immortal, & all the amazing Skratch DJs, & Producers that spend their time & effort, with putting in mad work, into helping peeps like me, who wanna become really good at Skratch skillz, & DJing, as a whole. Everyday I learn something new, & cool, I'll never stop learning. And for that im extremely

DJ Immortal, What is the beat sample that your using to do the crab scratch to?

[soulfulillusion]

good video...if u scratch hamster style u can get four sounds from three clicks and originally the crab was done with all fingers but it's hard to get your pinky in there lol

Thanks a lot! great video!
Any chance to see scratching tips using a controller?

I know that it's similar to scratching on the vinyl deck, but also has much difference because of not moving jog wheel

Has anyone got experience doing this on a DJ controller? Specifically the Numark Mixtrack. I've been trying for hours and I just can't get it. I'm not sure if the fader is too clunky or if its me (probably its me). I have got the fader on virtual DJ set to scratch mode.

Super difficult to do if you have long skinny fingers 😬

i guess to much crab cause your crossfader tilted, like your rane 57
