How to Use the Slipmat with Records

What is going on? What is going on? This is Corey Black on behalf of Expert Village chapter two pretty much is going to be about records and slip mats. Here we are right here with the record. Pretty much you probably wondering what is this. This is design to be in a form of a clock technically when you are you know going back and forth to let the record play and it goes from sample and then you would back it up right back to that sample. So that is a good thing to have right here which is a pen pointer that is what I like to call it. Here we go with the slip mat. I prefer Technics which is a very good company they got over slip mats you know that got the velvet slip mats. It doesn't really don't matter what ever you prefer. This is a most slippery mat which is actually something that is going to give you the groove or when the turn table is going around and you got your hand on the record and you are scratching back and forth it is going to give the slipperish that you need to do what you got to do as far as back handling a really quick scratch. On behalf of Expert Village this s Corey Black thank you.
