Disc jockey table simulation apparatus and related methods

摘要

A DJ table simulation apparatus that allows a DJ to practice different turntablism and scratching techniques without the use of a full turntable, mixer, and DJ equipment set up. The DJ table simulation apparatus is a portable tool that provides a platform for DJs to build up muscle memory and perfect the manipulation of vinyl records and sliders back and forth without requiring the use of electric powered turntables and mixer. The DJ table simulation apparatus is comprised of a modified turntable platter, a modified vinyl record, crossfader channels, and volume channels.
