DJ Equipment Buying Guide

So maybe you've decided to pick up a side job mixing the turntables or starting up your own business as a fader and then close it while rewinding a record back to its start. This requires a lot of skill when pushing the record at exactly the right speed, and may not be easy to master right away. * '''Chirp''': Meant to sound like the chirp of a bird, this involves fast baby scratching and opening the fader in the middle parts of the scratch. The fader is closed when the record changes direction, and if it's done quickly enough, it will make a chirping noise. * '''Uzi''': An extremely fast scribble scratch that occurs over a short part of the record. Strength and control is needed to create the quick scratching movement. * '''Tear''': This is a type of complex baby scratch that leaves the fader open but requires you to move the record back and forth. As the record is moved, the music will stop briefly due to the open fader and it will create a specific sound.

Step 3: Clothes

Just like any other job, even DJs have a uniform that they wear to work. Think about clothes that best express your style and that you feel comfortable working in. See some suggestions below.
