Cool ... this is why I try to make as few claims as possible ... someone
always knows of something that does everything.

Musolomo doesn't appear to do multiple parallel loops .... and there is 
only
one turntable ... which seems odd since generally turntablists want two
..... but yeah, there you have another utility for loop scratching.

You can also scratch with most DAWs and Fruity loops ... though not in real
time with any of those as far as I know (which makes sense since they are
generally editors and not instruments).

Thanks for the widget compliment.  Have you downloaded/tried it?  It seems
that over a hundred people have downloaded flyloops so far ... but I have
only received feedback from one ... so I am rather anxious to hear from
people that have tried it.

Aaron,

Not trying to bust on your efforts (nice widget you've come up with, 
BTW), but in the interest of accuracy I wanted to point out that 
Musolomo -- a Mac-only freeware Looper from Plasq -- has also had a 
turntable scratch function since its initial release a few years ago.

Musolomo's not being updated any further and it's quirky as hell, but 
there are a few unique features there.  With the scratch function, 
you can assign a midi controller to the on-screen turntable and play 
the loop forward and backward (not to mention back-and-forth, 
"scratching" it).

And, IIRC, wasn't there also one of the Max-based Loopers -- like the 
(now-defunct) Girl, or Cycling 74's Radial -- with which you could do 
turntable-style scratching?  I could be misremembering that, though. 
:P
