    Tip: white electrical tape. Much better than stickers and easy to take off. Been using it for years.

      What brand I've been using stickers forever. Do you use 1/8" or 1/4" is it matte white? what brand does it matter? i don't want it to peel off if i ever do. appreciate it. I just realized this was 7 years ago still same question.

      @@BronxBanDozah I'm sure any brand would work. As an electrician the one thing I would stay away from is 3M Super33 tape. It's super sticky and sometimes leaves residue that could damage your rekkids.

    I think every beginner should watch all the Throwback Thursday Videos. For someone who has done this for a longer time it seems like basic everyday shit, but it's essential to know those tricks if you don't. Great Tutorials!

    Ive been a vinyl dj since 2002 and I recently figured out how to get skips out of my favorite unusable records.... A damn toothpick!!!! Find the scratch and lightly slide the toothpick point along the grooves!! I wish I have known this all along!!! Then you can cue the record as you would normally!!!

    • @olivierkoster
      @olivierkoster Год назад +1

      I don't understand, you make the original groove wider/deeper? doesn't that change the frequencies?

    • @glitchsteal
      @glitchsteal 9 месяцев назад

      It might be soft enough to just buff the roughened edges of the grooves back into a cleaner alignment

    With a white crayon you can mark on top of the cue and know more precisely where it’s at. You do have to clean your needle pretty often and deal with shavings but a microfiber terrycloth rag works well

    Pretty neat but seems awfully unnecessary for what you get out of it. I dont need to put a sticker over the intro (and potentially ruin my record and needles) just to get to the kick 32 beats later... just drop the needle closer to that point and find it in your headphones quickly..
    these tutorials are great though thanks man

    Instead of a record, how would one properly label a RANE Performer platter? Is there a rule to follow when applying a sticker to a platter such as that?

  • @Wheel333
    @Wheel333 3 года назад +1

    Stick the tape on your jeans a couple of times to reduce the tackiness.

    It is not a digital DJ technique... It exists since the first DJs back in the 80's...
