Rodec SCRATCHBOX

A team of professional Scratch Deejays and our R&D department tested every available scratch mixer on the market. Our goal was to improve every available feature and used component. To live up to the RODEC reputation this mixer needed the RODEC Quality, Sound, Headroom and Equalizer. Our Dj team provided the necessary refreshing new features.

After more than 2 years of development the result is 'the RODEC Scratchbox' in our opinion the ultimate scratch mixer without unnecessary bells & whistles.
