Gemini CDJ 700?
Anyone used a pair of these? I mean for a hundred bucks more you can get one of these instead of a denon SC2000 I mean it has slip mode. Use a pair of DVS time code cd.

They are quite new and not available at the moment. The predecessor was a nice tool (Gemini CDJ 600). I’m definitely looking forward to buying a CDJ-700 to give it a try ![]()
these won’t be released until april…but yes they look very interesting
I hate to say it, but I’ve never found myself wanting a piece of what should by all accounts be a subpar piece of equipment so much before. ![]()
Wow!!! these look sweet!!!
As any other gemini product, it’s a pioneer wannabe.
I used to work on older ones, (maybe oldest) cdj-203. Built quality was great, nice big buttons. In the end it was a good player compared to numark models or to pioneer cdj-100.
if they’re under a grand for the pair and build quality/playability is good.. then i’ll definitely buy a set after they’re released.
i could care less about brand names on stuff any more. if the quality of a product is good (and comes with a decent warranty) who gives sh*t?
dj deals.com has it listed as 350 for pre order.
Those harsh plastic edges are straight outta Compton…the 80s…atari…miner49’er…99 bottles of beer on the wall…Pink Floyd…Mooooooon river…
the pink cue button is pimp.
I just got a boner from that gemini deck
i like the 700…but id only use it as a midi controller really
Trust me, theyr cd players are quite relliabe. Anyway, I would use it as a usb player. Seams just perfect for that, like American Audio Radius 1000, 3000
I see a pair of cdj800mkII and a pair of these when they come out in april.
All I need is to decide on a 4 channel mixer and I’m set. Haha.
I just don’t know, it seems too good to be true. Like cdj2000(ish) layout, touch screen, strip search, slip mode, USB SD card slots, and all for $400 dollars? Either the build and parts are total crap and will break a few weeks after getting them, or the guys on Gemini’s marketing team are horrible at math.
…or they have no marketing team, which in turn keeps the costs of the price per unit down.
If gemini had marketing like pioneer.. and sponsored and endorsed a bazzilion big name dj’s - the price of their gear would be much higher. Im not saying this is the whole reason pioneer’s gear is expensive, but it sure as hell is part of it.
you dont become the industry standard without splashing a bucketload of cash on maketing and sponsorship!
doesn’t look like we have a Gemini distributer here in Australia anymore… sad face…
The gemini CD players were always pretty decent, button action pretty much sucked donkey balls on their early rack units but their Pioneer 500 clones back in the early naughties were more reliable than a CDJ500.
