  • How do I make a beat on La Scratcheuse ?
    You must choose a pack to open the music maker. Once you’ve opened the music maker, a vinyl pad appears with your sounds loaded in it.
    Click on a section of the vinyl to activate a sound. Click on the same section again to stop the sound immediately. After launching the first sound, every other sound you launch will be activated at the beginning of the next loop. There is a circular timer at the center of the vinyl telling you when the next loop begins.
    All sounds last the same portion of time, follow the same rhythm, and are on the same key, so that any combination you try sounds good to your ear.
  • Can I use my own sounds with the music maker ?
