User reviews

First AUV3 Scratching mixer but..

It’s too simple to live scratch saddly

Almost perfect

I would love to clown down the songs bpm as I scratch the vinyl and I would love to see dj controller support with the decks having full midi support for spinning other wise this apps is dope

Pretty cool

Nice app but there should be a “double tap to reset parameters” function otherwise its pretty hard to reset speed parameter to 1x in a live situation for example

Better...but...

Reaction time is better now, should be high by default though, frustrating to go to the menu all the time, when we load it. It should be also a generator and the scratches NEED to be automation ready, other than that it's somewhat pointless. I hope another update....

The only Auv3 option for vinyl scratches

Cem did wonderful work in making an app like this. Before there wasn’t really anyway to get those record type scratches with Auv3. The only other options were some serious workarounds. Cem did justice with Scratchbud
