I have absolutely no idea why I’m awake at 03:58 on a Monday morning. But while I wait for my body clock to kick in and demand that I go back to bed, I perused the internet (well done Vekked for winning DMC), and stumbled across an image that really got my heart beating that little bit faster, something that really isn’t a good thing when I’m trying to get back to the land of nod.
You see, I saw this picture of something I’ve been hoping to see for the best part of a decade. The 7″ Portable Scratcher is a concept device that taps into the current trend for gluing a Raiden or Frisk Fader in a box onto a portable turntable like the discontinued Vestax Handy Trax or Numark PT-01. Such amalgamations clearly work, but look to be an inelegant solution compared to a unit designed with the express purpose of scratching 45s.

At this ungodly time, I know nothing more that what you see on Facebook and Twitter. I’ve put a request in for more info, but given that the mysterious inventor was at the DMC finals, I would imagine that unlike me, they’re safely tucked up in bed. More when I have it.
could be DJ Precision, or one would assume DJ Scratch but i don’t know if he was at the DMCs, mini Innofader equipped, nice.
That looks crazy good, pumped! a lid looks like the only thing missing in this Intial tease, looking forward to more info
Craze, is that you :)
The same idea few years ago should be ridiculized, now is mindblow…
You’re quite right. Funny how times change.

Schoppy has the reason…
CD, DVS, and controllers pretty much fit this.
Mark, I will contact you as soon as I am home and will tell you everything you want or almost ;)
Thank you soooo much for the article.

You even got the Innodaddy wondering what this is all about…

why not direct drive? too much power consumption?
Still curious as to the answer to this question
Have you ever used a Handy Trax? The torque is insane. A DD motor isn’t needed and would just add weight and cost.
Hey bud. I work for Odyssey Gear, and would love to make a case of some sort for this. There any way we can connect?
Want one NOW!
We all do.
and many more CRAZY features… it looks like CRAZE!! :D
I’m certain it’s not Craze. I have a name in mind though.
