Scratching Without Records
* Create scratches without a turntable, mixer, or vinyl records.
* iScratch produces realistic scratch sounds based on standard scratch notation - it "plays" the scratch with the realism of a turntable system.
* Anyone can add scratching to their music library.
Create and edit
* Create basic scratches from the built-in tools: Push, Pull, Baby, Release, Chirp, Tear, Hold.
* Add Fader control with the Click tool - several clicks can simulate a Crab.
* Choose any sound to scratch (AIFF format). Change input sounds during the composition.
* Control the duration of the input sound. The Waveform control shows exactly which portion of the input will be used to generate the scratch.
* Control the pitch of the scratch. Edit the notation so that it plays over a shorter time but uses the same amount of input sample. This will produce a higher-pitched scratch.
* Copy & paste notations to easily repeat parts of your scratch.
* Drag notations to change their position.
* Time and Measure tracks show how long your composition is. Create a few seconds or hours of scratching.
* Play back the scratch composition or just the notation you are working on.
* Play the input (source) sound.
* Add a backbeat.
Save and share
* Use the Document Info window to title your composition, set its copyright, or add notes.
* When you save your iScratch™ file, all of the input samples used to create it are bundled into the file. Send it to a friend and they will see and hear exactly what you created.
* Print your scratch composition like sheet music to use for performances.
Export and Mix
* Export your iScratch™ composition as an AIFF file. Put your composition on your web site or import it into GarageBand, Soundtrack, Logic, or your favorite music application.
