Digital DJ Turntable

Daniel Gomez-Ibanez writes "I made a digital turntable - it stores digital audio and plays it back like a record player. This lets you scratch the audio from a CD. I like it because there's no 'computer' involved- a four year old can figure it out. There's a description here." Daniel also has a more descriptive web page on the inspiration and design of this beast.

  1. Kinda like in Batman II? by PDG · · Score: 1, Troll

    Remember when Batman (played by Keaton) recorded the Penguin (Devito) onto a CD and then replayed it?

    It always bugged me how Batman then 'scratched' the CD as if it were a record (which obviously is not possible)

    Makes me wonder if this project was based on the same 'annoyance' and wanted to make something that would work.

  2. this is really kinda keen by Illandir · · Score: 0, Troll

    Even though most dj's these days are MP3 whores, it would be refreshing to see some of this oldschool turntable style with more available media - We could slowly but surely be moving torwards an era of music like the one depicted in ReMix

  3. Is this Dr Suise's site??? by azcoffeehabit · · Score: 0, Troll

    a couple of pics and a paragraph made good reading a while back... At least put up a nice shiney golden left edge border or something.

    American DJ has been making CD-players with a built-in scratch box for a gooooood while . No need to gloat about old technology.
