That’s ingenious bro, I love what you have created. Patent this and never give up your creative license. You’re going to be incredible wealthy once you get a investor.
Thanks man!!! I really appreciate it. To be fair, I think the reason the first kickstarter campaign failed was mostly because I wasn't offering any real backer rewards. It was just me begging for money to help me develop a prototype. But never fear - if you want to buy a real functioning scrubboard, you're in luck! I'll be launching a Kickstarter campaign with real backer rewards in just a few weeks. 🎁
This almost seems better than scratching in that you won't necessarily ruin anything by doing it. you can make your own copies of sounds on blank tapes and do this, vs literally destroying records with the needle...
You are the best thing to happen in life! I love how you made this with the passion of a turntsblist. Bro you you would be great scratching on turntables and cdjs. You understand that how to manipulate to get the right sounds perfectly! Love you man for being so passionate about music and creating something so thoughtful.
This is awesome! I built a very similar thing recently with a bunch of tape spooled out over my desk and an old tape head I ripped out of an aux-cassette car adaptor, but it's nowhere near as versatile as this, I can't wait to see how it develops as a product.
You deserve WAAAAAY more views & subs my dude. Maybe it’s because I grew up in the 90’s, but I think this is the most awesome invention I’ve ever seen. You come correct with the scratches too. The rocker sounds like you’re really tweaking the cross fader🎚️
i'm plnning to make a cassette mobile head tape echo and a scrathing(i want the tape to play) unit, i was thinking of taking the tape out just like you for transport, but for my project i want it to roll... nice work man, very inspiring...
Thanks Saul -- and btw, in case you didn't already know, I'm raffling off the prototype that's shown in this video. Just go to the link at the end of the video for a chance to win it!
Great work!! Magnetism is cosmic! Your gear leave a lot of space for additional tapeheads,so you could easily add tape delay options.That should be even more fun,especialy if you switch tape direction.Greets from a Berlin Tapehead.
Great work! That's a very innovative way of using basic existing technology I like it. Did you ever hear the original music for 'Doctor Who'? I believe that a lot the instruments and sound effects in the track where created by stretching and modifying reel to reel tape.
I think it would definitely be possible to mod this thing to add a motorized tape transport, but unfortunately you'd need to do more than connect a motor to one of the pegs. You'd also need at least one motorized pinch roller to maintain the tension of the tape stretched across the rail, plus another motor if you wanted to be able to run it in both directions. And I haven't even mentioned how you'd regulate the tape speed, as the two reels get bigger/smaller! That's why I've been using tape loops in my fully functional prototypes instead of reels -- much simpler. But anyway, I'm always happy to see when my stuff has sparked people's imagination. Thanks for checking out my videos and for the feedback. More to come soon!
I think he promoted this wrong. He should have done a mini tour around dj scratching sets and got a bit more popularity and had them promote the kickstarter for him.
Thanks man! You should check out my newest prototype if you haven't already -- it uses two inch studio tape which I think sounds a lot better. It also has record functionality, which opens up a lot of possibilities, like it can be used as a very fancy tape delay effect. Check it out! ua-cam.com/video/L6SMyND8hso/v-deo.html
I certainly never claimed to have invented the concept of tape scratching -- I only claim to have invented the ScrubBoard! I have done a lot of research throughout the patenting process, and I can definitely say with confidence that this particular method of tape scratching is indeed my idea. Tape scratching typically involves moving the tape against a stationary playhead. What makes the ScrubBoard unique is the manual movement of the playhead, which really opens up a lot of new possibilities. Of course the more traditional method of tape scratching has lots of possibilities too, and I would never say that one is better than the other. Every method of scratching has its own unique sound, and it's that variety that I love!

I'm mad that I didn't hear about this until now and missed the first campaign. That so few could see the potential in this is pathetic. Can't wait!

You are truly the embodiment of a Hip-Hop head. 🙌🏾👏🏾👏🏾🙌🏾
Cant find a superlative to explain how awesome this is
You are the best thing to happen in life! I love how you made this with the passion of a turntsblist. Bro you you would be great scratching on turntables and cdjs. You understand that how to manipulate to get the right sounds perfectly! Love you man for being so passionate about music and creating something so thoughtful.
Just saw jazzys reaction. You and your inventions are epic!!!!!!!
Always happy to see updates.
I have the update. Check out my tools

Love it with two scrubbers! Ingenious.
time to start another kickstater my guy
This is a solid contribution to music. This is freaking awesome.
dude youre a legend i cant wait and I hope you get rich off that invention !!
This is so funny. Check out my vinyl style scratching tool for cassette tape
This is awesome. And so versatile. I can think of so many ways to use this.
Undeniably awesome, repurposing cassette tapes would seem practically impossible - before this video! Wow!!😳
You’re a mad genius!
This is crazy and awesome.
This is so awesome in so many ways! Absolutely marvelous!
Really great instrument!!!
Dude, the scratch guitar is a killer thing!!!
Props dude you’re a living legend
This is genius! As a cassette head myself, I’ve been wondering if it’s possible to scratch with tapes, I need one of these!!
Big fan glad i found your channel
wow so incredible genius you gave me more ideas!
Superb build, explanation, and scratching! Noice!
i'm plnning to make a cassette mobile head tape echo and a scrathing(i want the tape to play) unit, i was thinking of taking the tape out just like you for transport, but for my project i want it to roll... nice work man, very inspiring...
Cool, let me know how goes!
Creative! Can you share some details about the Play Head and its companion amplifier? The signal sounds nice and clear.
really really awesome what you've done here
Thanks Saul -- and btw, in case you didn't already know, I'm raffling off the prototype that's shown in this video. Just go to the link at the end of the video for a chance to win it!
This is amazing

YOU MAD GENIUS
Nice! This is so cool
I would buy it. ❤ Really cool.
i never seen this video i saw another of you video about the scrub board but i can tell you this video is better because or the shirt ;)
Big ProbZzzZZZZ! I like it alot. nice work!
This is sick. Awesome creation 💯
Very cool
i love this version...amazing!!
Brilliant ❤
Awesome! I'd specially record stuff onto cheap tapes. Also really cheapo ones would add to the lofi.
Great progress! As the old adage of design goes.. simplify, simplify, simplify. :)
This Is Awesome 😳…
Great work! That's a very innovative way of using basic existing technology I like it. Did you ever hear the original music for 'Doctor Who'? I believe that a lot the instruments and sound effects in the track where created by stretching and modifying reel to reel tape.
that shit go hard dawg
Awesome really xD i like it keep doing that stuff
I love this.
Amazing work Jeremy !!
Fresh!
Fantastico!
Amazing. Is there anything stopping me putting a small motor on one of the pegs if they get to market
I think it would definitely be possible to mod this thing to add a motorized tape transport, but unfortunately you'd need to do more than connect a motor to one of the pegs.

Heck yes! Great Job!
Legend broo
awesome
That is cool
genius
Hey dude! Any sort of kit or anything available? So rad!
Could there be an active switch that switches A/B on a foot controller or button on the console?
Thats is beautiful, i am in love. 🤩🥰
Thanks made one.
Awesome! ☺️
great
I think he promoted this wrong. He should have done a mini tour around dj scratching sets and got a bit more popularity and had them promote the kickstarter for him.
What ever came of this idea?
Please tell me this idea is still alive
Genial 🤘
so dope haha
wow
link to the kickstarter page ?
Pierre Voyer Oops, yes I probably should have done that! Okay, I have added a link to my kickstarter profile in the description.
Why d not just use vinyl?)
Ke genio
Amazing, this idea in 80's... People dont know the quality of cassette, digital sucks

Nothing new,we did same thing almost 30yrs ago...
Que merda hahahhahaha
