I just want to say thank you a thousand times to dj shiftee for taking the time to break this amazing scratch down I have watched countless videos on youtube about how to crab scratch asked people where to go to learn scratching and nothing has helped me up until i found this video i wathced this video once before work practiced it for 15 minutes almost got it then came home from work watched it one more time then suddenly i got it I must have been crab scratching for 2 hours straight!!
Crabs are probably my favorite kind of scratch.
The man, thanks for the good lessons brotha
Brilliant tutorial
Awesome Tutorial. I have been starting the the fader closed for years!! DOH
Dude, ur a trip! Good stuff Brah!!
well done tutorial. shiftee is well spoken, humorous, and talented. thanks.
6:00 - Golden words!
thanks. Any song with clean (not blocked by other instruments) vocals/sound fx, acappellas, scratch/break records designed for turntablists (dirtystyle, thudrumble, super duck breaks, scratch science, le jad, a-trak & craze, etc), but really anything you think of can be used for scratching.
Use the sharpest curve on your mixer. On the rane mixers, it's "FAST" or all the way way to the right depending on the mixer. Pioneer mixers, you want the one that looks like a table. Pretty much you want full sound as soon as you move the crossfader the slightest amount.
Mad skillz bro, where do u advise we get the actual sounds u use for scratching?
love how the word crabs comes floating out of his pants lol
This guy is insane, I'll try those crabs for sure
@scratchgonzo yup your kinda right, but theres two types 3 finger open fader start and 4 finger closed start
These are the funniest tutorials on the internet
HE DOUBLE DIPPED!!
THIS GUY IS INSANE!
@DJeighty6 also like shiftee shows a 4 finger open fader start^
Any chance your scratching tutorials will work with Digital Midi DJ Controllers? (Such as Hercules RMX, Vestax VCI series, etc.)
one question, is your turntable in reverse? if the cross fader is on right left vinyl is playing?
Im so confused this is so difficult :( is it okay to start it with the fader closed or is that totally wrong?
How do you set xFade curve for crab? Or is it maybe linear?
can you give the settings needed to do this on a DN-S3700 please. this is insane
does the slope on the fader need to be zeroed out, i have too much fade and not enough cut? whats the best mixer for this or can i fix this on my numark?
does a vestex, rane, or denon mixer have a bigger crossfader than a stanton beginner mixer??
Im On Numark Ns7 So How Are You Closing the cross fader, Im trying but it doesnt sound like that
AAAHHHHH!! SALSA!!!!
Man I’m so close to getting the scratch down but I’m having issues with starting with the fader on or off and then leaving the scratch with it on just doesn’t sound as clean this is hard
im gonna eat sum nachos with salsa while i practice :)
what breaks are you scratching over?
what sound is he using on the side he's scratching with?
Which song is he playin with this sound?
I want some now. Lmao.
dj shiftee is hilarious omg,
SALSA!!!
@DJAIRMAYNE
What do you mean? If you haven't already, turn your crossfader contour all the way to the right for the sharpest cuts possible.
im right handed, should i use my right hand on the crossfader?
is this the same video that was loaded months ago?
whats the beat hes scratching to???
hey what beat is that?
best Vinyl to scratch (IMO) Super Seal
CAN I PLEASE GET THE SAMPLES HE IS USING?? THANK YOU
oh the flip phone brings back memories
All up in the red!! lol
@DJAIRMAYNE oops typed too soon, its not in reverse. Thats normal mode.
He just double dipped the chip!
Antonio Banderas would be DJing in Once Upon A Time In Mexico xD
I practice the movement with my hands all the time but when i attempt it, it doesnt go well :(
Wouldn't that scratch like really scratch the record or is that why the call it an "scratch"???
Saving this for myself, pay no attention
that damn phone!! lol
Vand Vand - Tayrald Break
I cant get it :(
I believe it's called "Aaah" and can be found as the first track on the sample CD "Superseal Breaks"
Here's a link to the CD:

i will never let somebody put salsa this close of my set
I've spent years try to learn how to do this. If you have a stiff thumb the level of difficulty is Nintendo god mode hard, as in damn near impossible.
yo wherez the schoo at B ??
isn't this technically an orbit if the fader starts open?
I see Shift's a a fellow hint of lime man
Everyone is a hint of lime person deep down. Lets just be honest here ;)
When are we gonna get some "not fat free habenero spicy" scratch vids????!!
its a scratching sample. if you want it inbox me. same for others as well!
Shiftee gave me crabs, watch out.
@DJAIRMAYNE crossfader is in reverse
it's a scratch track designed to do exactly what he's doing with it.
check ur levels, bro
8:19 Don't talk with ya mouth full! LOL I wanna start dj'in, tho I'm 14. However, I would NEVER let you put salsa, juice, etc., THAT close to my set :D
its called crab scratch because qbert had a name sound like crepe but it turned out crab . :)
I love how fucking awkward he is
Shiftee just curious Are you Jewish ( not trying to be rude) i mean u r amazing in math and DJ
Salsa...
@educaralegal chode?
This guy is so goofy, you can click on the video to pause and click again to play and hit #3 on your keyboard repeatedly... and that motion seems so natural to shiftee since hes such a goof ball!!!!
DJ Qbert has fathered a lot of children.
na tio, que por mucho que sepas como se hace, no te sale
Very useful tutorial and Very misleading title, just saying.
@educaralegal stoner
@djsck8 the most basic scratch sound ever lol
EW TRIPPLE DIP!
