Apple’s diverse range of iOS devices has enabled a cottage industry to spring up in every corner of the world. Anyone with a developer account and an idea can spread their wares across the planet in return for a trickle or indeed torrent of income. Skratchloop from DJ Hard Rich is one such small app for DJs — turntablists have used Flash loopers for years, and this is the iOS equivalent, but with an ultrapitch control built in.
It very closely follows the established format for loopers, but also adds a ±50% pitch control (I’d like to see key lock too). The developers have very kindly given up 5 codes to give away to some probably grateful happy scratchers.
How To Win Skratchloop
Given that it’s a 69p app, there’s nothing especially complex about the competition — simply leave a reason why you should win an app store code in the comments, and the winners will be those with the most up-votes (you do all know that you can vote on comments and news stories right?).
If however you just can’t wait for that ±50% action and find the 69p is burning a hole in your baggy saggy pocket, why not pop along to the app store and contribute to the fledgling skratchloop empire.
Because nobody else bothered to post.
I’d love to get one because I’m just entering the world of digital DJing and just got my first iPhone and I’m still looking for some fresh apps! :)
a skratch looper? wow, what a great idea! …something so simple, but higly useful to those of us who like skratch records way into the wee hours of the night! wish I had thought of this first :P
I should win a free app code because I have grown so tired of having to constantly rip my laptop out of the art studio dock just so I can play endless loops to scratch over with my analog vinyl …and I’ve definitely overplayed all my pressed instrumentals, new beats are a MUST!
I’ve started learning how to scratch (well, started; it’s been about 3 months now) and this would be quite useful for some quick practice :-)
Because It would give me another option when using my iPad with my setup.
In my humble opinion, I believe I should win a copy because as a fledgling turntablist, yet amateur DJ, I would put this app to use every day in my pursuit to perfect my art. Music is my passion and I truly want to share that with the world.
When does the contest end Mark?
I should win because I’ll post a devious mix for all readers to enjoy…
i think i should win cos i my head i’m amazing yet the fact is i need all the practice i can get ;-)
I should win because I’m the flippin Instructor and Moderator at the skratchlounge and I need all the cool points I can get! LOL> JK Mark, I just had to put somethin up.
I really want to win, because I love scratching. :)
Looks identical to the warflex thud rumble goldVoltron app . Which came first or are they somehow incorporated ? 99cents for the thudrumble 69 cents for this , either way it a steal . I have the GoldVoltron version and it’s worth every penny.Probably buy this too just for the different beats . The setting for the beat to slowly get faster is really good on helping improve your skills whether your new to scratching or old . Recommended *****
