video scratching
Hi there,
Kind of an odd question I know, but I was wondering if anyone would know how to record video scratching. i.e when I scrub video (to music) I want to capture the rhythm.Is there a plugin or third party software for this?
I using to do it from my decks but since I’m now using the P2 cards its kinda difficult :OP
TIA

UMMMM, what an interesting idea!! The only way I can think of doing it would be to use a screen capture prog to capture the video as you scratch. The only problem would be quality. All screen capture progs only capture the video at screen res.
You could always use Motion, or After Effects to FAKE the effect.Dave

Hey Dave,
Yeah its a interesting concept for sure. I’ve seen it done really well at New Forms Festivals up here in Vancouver…I’ve captured stuff before using snapzpro or something like that (cant remember) but it was really iffy on the quality and performance(lots of stuttering.) So far it seems capturing off the decks was the best solution….or was it to the decks?…how did i have that rigged again hmmm it was 5 years ago.
I was just hoping some guru maid some obscure program for it 🙂
Looks like I’ve got a few hours of compositing to do 🙁

Ummm, I had a thought…..would it be poss. to scratch the footage on the timeline live, and feed it direct to a deck? There has to be a way to do it…..maybe if you use SDI feed from say a Decklink card, or similar you could record the scratching to tape.
It should work, if you’ve set-up your Mac for dual monitors…..well it’s worth a try!!Dave
