Dj tutor ,Record wobble on your deck?

Lesson Beginner Stage 7: Software & Gear November 2006

Contents of the video

Alright folks, this is another quick tip for you on the vinyl tip. Okay, have you got your favourite scratch record and when you stick it on your vinyl does it wobble? Okay, which is a pain in the arse because when you're scratching it's all over the place, needle jumps, you've had it haven't you? Right, quick tip for you, here, I'll just turn that so I can see what I'm doing. Right, that's what you need, piece of paper, okay? Very simple, piece of vinyl, bearing in mind now I'm using one hand to hold the deck. Oh, sorry, the camera. Right, okay, you can see there, perhaps you can or can't, it wobbles, okay? So what do you do? You get a tiny piece of paper, put the piece of paper in there, and then basically all you do is you find the middle, and voila! It doesn't wobble. Why do you use paper, you ask? Okay, if you start putting sellotape or any sort of stuff that sticks in the middle there, then all that will happen, it'll just start looking disgusting. And look what happens. When I finish using it, I can take the paper away.

And the record is still in perfect condition. There you go. Enjoy. Bye-see-bye.
