“So the idea of this looper is to work out new scratches slowly then to gradually work up your speed. First work out the new scratch with no music, then start at a BPM of 65 with your new scratch. When you get the scratch down at that speed work your way up the tempos until you reach 125 BPM. Now go back to 65 BPM and get the scratch down at double speed and work you way back up the tempos. I hope this looper is useful and please feel free to provide any feedback.”
