Quarter notes are the simplest to scratch in time with, since you simply scratch on every downbeat. In this example, select P12 and start up V A1. Rock the pad forward (clockwise) on the first downbeat, then rock it back (counter-clockwise) on the second downbeat, and so on. Notice that the scratch sound is actually a musical part that changes with the chords in the Pattern. Tap your foot or your heel with the beats (count out loud if you want, too!), and try to hit each beat with a scratch! Try different scratch "lengths" as well - for example, scratching forward for a short 1/8 turn, and back for a long 1/2 turn. Stay on the beat! One Two Three Four 27
