Whats up, new to the forum.
I don't have any tables but i am interested in buying some and starting to use the.
I am a very musical person, I have 2 guitars, a bass, a pearl export drum set, 2 mics, 4 amps, Korg keyboard, boss effects, and a Korg d8 digital mixer. I'm not saying this to boast, i just wanted you to have some background info before you might help me. I taught myself to play all these things, and i feel like i am quite good.

I am starting to record now, though, and i would very much like to add tables to my setup and sound. The sound i play and results i would like to achieve from the tables would be more similiar to music and scratching like kid rock, run dmc, uncle kracker, NOT stuff like linkin park. I play hard rock but also dabble in old school hip-hop.

I am new to this alltogether, and i had some questions.

1. How do you scratch different notes to meld with the music? is it the speed of your scratch, or the record you are spinnin'?
2. ANy suggestions on tables for a novice?
3. Is it extremely difficult to learn?
4. what all do i need? ..down to speakers, wire, etc.

Thanks so much
