About this product
The Stanton SCS.3d DaScratch is a single deck MIDI controller featuring a multi-touch interface and a built-in USB hub. It allows for scratch performance and control over DJ software. This black unit is designed for tabletop use and connects via USB. The multi-touch surface replaces traditional jog wheels, offering touch-sensitive control. Priced at $89.90, it is an entry-level controller for aspiring DJs.
Our take
I've been using the Stanton SCS.3d for quick scratch practice. The multi-touch interface is novel—it responds to taps and slides, but it's not as precise as a physical jog wheel. The USB hub is handy for connecting other devices, but the plastic casing feels cheap. For under $90, it's a decent entry-level controller if you're curious about touch control. However, serious scratchers might want something with more tactile feedback. It works fine with most software, but expect a learning curve.
