- Jamming with the SC500 from Portablism Gear 👾
I got this amazing little machine to do live scratching with Space Bros (intergalactic boombap group featuring me and Bain from Grey Tapes on beats and raps from the incredible John Dole). This beat is one that Bain made for the project - you can hear the full vocal version on the latest Northern Tape release (available on cassette and download on their bandcamp - show them some love 💕) - Hudba
It's never the tools, it's always the user.... PRACTICE MORE EVERYONE!
yo, i saw your comment on that other vid with the sc500 and the pocket operators! you seem like a dope ass dude
The quality is just crisp, almost as if this was made back in 2012!
So cool, dude! Unfortunately, these thingies have been sold out for ages🙄
Thanks man! There are a couple on the Portablism Gear site right now! They go up quite often but always sell out quick
@@kalimbomusic whaaaaaat?! Are you serious?!😲 yeah!!!
@@CNTRRNDM I just bought one, I think they restocked yesterday!
@@noisetv1863 whaaaaaat?! Lemme check!!!
Been trying to get one for a year.
Awesome scratching
Thank you!
Mine is being built , I’m pumped 🎉
Yes! Enjoy, it's so much fun. Did take a while to get used to compared to real turntables but worth it for the portability
@@kalimbomusic I’ve used all sorts lol traktor to pioneer , vestax to technics , couple of portables too , just the novelty factor of a quick all in one scratch has me whoring samples already. Went for the UV frost purple .
Ordered a week ago , so impatient lol 😂
Make some more videos dude !
I’d love to know what samples and beats come with it on the card , searched like crazy to find nothing info wise on this !
There's not a huge amount of samples and beats included but definitely enough to get you started! And it's super easy to add more. Thanks man will do 👌
@@kalimbomusic mine crashes whenever I upload more beats n samples … any idea what I’m doing wrong ?
Some of the beats are an hour long
@@dejayreal I think I had this problem when I tried to add something higher than 16bit, so yeah maybe check the bit rate?
How did you get the samples on the right ?
Is there a way to reverse the fader or did you just drop the samples into the beats folder ?
The fader cuts the samples out on both sides, so you can use it either way. There's also a setting in the txt file if you want to make one side cut the beats in and out but usually they just keep playing whatever the fader is doing 👍
@@kalimbomusic thnx dude , ur a legend.
what cam you used? looks like 2010's homevids, too cool
Thanks! It's just a go pro
wow, that easy@@kalimbomusic
I wish there was a counter moving motor to make it more realistic!
Yeah that would really make it a lot easier! Kind of hard to keep track of where samples start
@@kalimbomusic let's hope there will be new version!
How did you set it up to play the sample when you release? Pressing play on mine just makes it play through the sample and the jogwheel doesnt stop it
It is basically set up the way it came, I didn't have to change anything to make it work like that. The jog wheel is touch sensitive, so any time you are touching it the sample should be reacting to the movement of the jog wheel (so if you spin it without keeping contact it may seem like it's not working?). It could be something in the settings or a loose connection but either way I would contact the maker if I was you 🤞
@@kalimbomusic thanks for the reply, turns out I accidentally bumped the jogwheel the first time i turned it on which you're not supposed to do, it works fine now!
@@goodnightosaka great! Have fun :)
That. Was sick!
Thanks!
if only it was smaller
Man these have been out of stock and unavailable everywhere used or new. I’ve given up hope. These are so ill but I have a feeling they’ll never be available again.
If you follow the portablism shop on Instagram they usually announce when new ones will be available 👍
How long did it take for you to receive after you ordered?
About 5 days
From where can I get one of these instruments?
It's from portablismgear . Com 👍
You can’t, because they’re never, NEVER in stock. Been looking at their website for months
@@MyNameJeff.. Is it a con? Is it some elaborate internet in-joke?
@@dinogoldie9716 lol I hope not because I want one so bad
Whats the name of the beat?
It's Log Entry 922123 by Space Bros
Can you tear on it?
Yeah it actually works best when your hand stays in contact so tears are perfect
If you find the instructional video by portablism there's a really good demo at the end
@kalimbomusic that's crazy. I remember when cd tables came out and you couldn't tear on them, then final scratch came along. Now this. That's a sick little device!
lol €329.99 what a scam
250. And it's open source so you can build your own for cheaper
