    Hi Guys!

    yes, i got possibility to test the final scratch system 2 month ago for 2
    weeks, a friend of mine got it while beta phase...

    it REALLY works exactly as we all know it from djing with vinyl, i didnīt
    want to believe it before...

    4 important things:

    use mp3īs with a bitrate of at least 160, better 192 kbit

    test all of them before u use it in a club if they run on final scratch - my
    test involved 600 mp3īs, running on winamp perfectly, but 4 (!) of them
    didnīt run on final scratch, please donīt ask why, i didnīt find out

    usable only in clubs etc. where the dj - systems are open to reach, in clubs
    with systems integrated in a table no chance to install final scratch

    never forget you are working with digital files on ms products :-( - so be
    aware of a blue screen (even if it happens not often) and prepare some real
    vinyl to react if the notebook crashes...

    but:

    i highly recommand the system, vinyl feeling on digital advantages...

    peace & passion
