The deck is equipped with a USB port so that audio files can be read from an external hard or flash drive, an SD card port and, of course, a CD player. All features are clearly described on the unit. And so we come to the only original feature of the CDJ On the front panel there are no surprises: The possibilities are limited with regards to loops and cue points. The deck fulfills the needs of both beginners and experienced users, because it remains easy-to-use and intuitive in spite of the comprehensive feature set.
The finish quality is not amazing but more than just satisfying. Now, let’s get to the heart of the matter with the top panel. Features like sound FX, looping, platter control, cue points, and touchscreen control, you can be sure that you get the most bang for your buck.
Now that we have praised it we shall make a couple of remarks as well. Gemini is commonly an underdog brand when it hemini to DJ equipment.
Apart from an obvious resemblance to the Pioneer CDJthe overall look of the product is very sleek and sober. This sort of occurrence is great for the common DJ, because it means that they will produce equipment that is reasonably priced.
You also get browsing and setup control elements for the LCD if you want the track name to be displayed or if you need to know the remaining playing time The touch function of the LCD seems to be a bit useless and not very practical. If you want to purchase a nice CDJ controller, you always have plenty of options.
The latter enables the scratch function. Maybe smartphone and tablet fans will find the touch screen interesting.
Even if it can be adjusted, it feels to stiff for my taste and it doesn’t allow complex scratching techniques like “scribbling”. People who bought this also bought.
Today, every DJ gear manufacturer wants a piece of the control surface market. The CDJ works as advertised. When you enable the reverse function or create a loop, the playback of the track is resumed exactly where it had left off. The color display is convenient and easily readable.
The track loading time is 8 seconds, which seems pretty long to us. Plastic covers on the screens remain. You don’t get lost in multiple sub-menus, just press or press and hold a control element to manage all available functions.
The design, in terms of ergonomics, is pretty good and the user interface is also quite practical. That’s why Gemini decided to introduce now a versatile, fully featured CD deck.
To put it simply, most people who purchase geemini CDJ end up having their needs satisfied. Track start and stop can be adjusted with a dedicated control. For scratching DJs, the result sounds like if you would use the “transform” scratching technique.
The same applies to effects: You can control effects using the dedicated control elements, the jog wheel or the touch screen.
If you want to mix with a CD deck and have a small budget, this product will make you very happy. It provides information about the selected track, allows you to control effects, to tap the BPM value, etc.
