NAMM 2013: The Gemini Insider

Gemini has long realized that they offer a competitive price point for some pretty rad DJ gear. Their ability to remain competitive while still keeping up with the technology that is digital DJing is simply uncanny. As with most manufacturers, they've got more fresh gear for NAMM this year, and they've been quite quiet about what it is...to the public. While we can't reveal all, we can offer up some goodies as to what to expect from Gemini at NAMM 2013. Gemini has, like many other manufacturers, been teasing fans with images like the one on the right.

Fill 'er Up ... Special

After the success of the Firstmix and Firstmix Pro, we think Gemini finally realized that it was their time to shine in the mid-grade DJ Controllers. We'll see lots of more features coming out of these bad boys, with some of them being things we usually only see on more advanced controllers.

4 Channels of DJ Controller Goodness

We've been impatiently waiting for a 4-channel controller from Gemini to see how they'd get the job done. From what we've seen so far, they're hitting the bull's eye. The 4-channel layout looks almost impeccable, and we can't wait to see these things in person to get a more hands-on feel for them.

PADS! FINALLY!

Gemini! Thank you Gemini! We're stoked to check out the look and feel of pads on Gemini DJ Controllers. The modestly priced manufacturer is going to give us a first-hand look at a DJ controller with pads, the first for these guys. Based off the production quality of the CDJ-700 and the CDMP-7000, we think they're going to bring us something that's as good, if not better than some of the competition out there.

That's all we're going to say for now. We're not ready to show off the goods, we'll do so at NAMM. Something tells us that pictures aren't going to do it justice.
