The scratch (or scratching) is a process that consists of manually changing the reading speed of a vinyl record under a read head from vinyl turntable. Thus, alternately forward and backward, so as to produce a special effect, the sound becomes higher when accelerated and lower when slowed down. In addition to this manipulation of the vinyl, a modification of the volume (increase, decrease or cut) allows to give a rhythm to this modulation.
Therefore, the hand on the vinyl controls the height of the sound (high or low). The hand located on the crossfader of the mixer controls the rhythm of the sound, while the other hand does not.
