Gemini DJ CDMP-6000 DJ Package Pros/Cons.

Pros.

The Gemini DJ CDMP-6000 DJ Package is given a 5-star rating from one user on Amazon. It has the advantage of being able to play from a USB memory device, so you don’t need to bring CD’s with you.

Cons.

Although there are no customer complaints about the Gemini DJ CDMP-6000 , one user review on Amazon is not enough to consider it reliably user-rated, and there are few available user reviews off Amazon at the time of writing.

Gemini DJ CDMP-6000 DJ Package in use

The DJ CDMP-6000 is said by the user-review on Amazon, to be a professional piece of equipment at a very good price, although there are more reliably-rated alternatives at an even better price (see below).

. . .

Alternatives to the Gemini DJ CDMP-6000 DJ Package

The Alternatives to the CDMP-6000 include :-

2-deck DJ systems.

The NUMARK CD Mix 1 DJ Package (see our product report on that) is much more reliably rated that the Gemini, with an excellent 4.7 user rating from 7 user reviews. It’s also cheaper than the Gemini, with similar features (but only 12% pitch correction, and you’d need an additional phono pre-amp to connect turntables into it).

The only way of getting a well-rated cheaper DJ system cheaper than that would be using DJ software on a computer:- you can even get a well-rated hardware DJ console, plus software, all for a lot less money than the “CD Mix 1″, such as the Hercules DJ Control MP3 e2 (See our product report on that), and of course, ripping your CD collection to mp3′s is easy enough.

For a much more expensive CD DJ system with more facilities and much higher quality, the Numark MIXDECK Universal Dj System (See our product report on that) gets a very good 3.8 overall user rating. It also acts as a MIDI controller so can be used to control most DJ software for even greater flexibility and facilities. You get lots of effects, harmonic mixing, looping, sampling, hot cues etc. which enable live remixing.

DJ CD players

For top quality, the Pioneer CDJ-2000 Professional Multi Player gets a 5 star rating from all 4 of the currently available user reviews on Amazon, and come highly recommended, but two of them would be more than 10 times the price of the Gemini, and that’s without a DJ mixer.

Very well-rated, but more reasonably priced DJ CD decks include the Denon DNS1200 USB DJ CD Player which gets a very good 4.2 user rating by 6 users and includes 4 effects, 3 platter effects, key adjustment, USB connection, and MIDI control of DJ software. The slightly cheaper (at the time of writing) Pioneer CDJ-200 Pro Cd/Mp3 Player gets a very good 4.0 user rating from 6 users, and has 3 jog-wheel controlled effects. For a cheaper but well-rated CD deck, consider the Stanton S252 DJ Table-Top CD Player with Fader Start and Digital Outputs, which gets three 5-star user ratings.

For suitable DJ mixers to go with CD decks (and/or vinyl turntables), the best-rated (from more than a few user reviews) option is the Behringer DDM4000 DJ Mixer (see our product report on that), which gets an outstanding 4.7 user rating from 13 user reviews. It has lots of features including sampling, effects and can be used as a MIDI controller for DJ software too. For a cheaper but well-rated DJ mixer, Gemini PS121x Professional 2 Channel Stereo Mixer gets a very good 4.3 user rating by 3 users, and is simple but produces a sound which users say is “clean” and does a good job for the price.

Accessories for the Gemini DJ CDMP-6000 DJ Package

The Accessories for the Gemini DJ CDMP-6000 DJ Package include a PA system to play it through.

You might also want a dynamic microphone (the Gemini has both 1/4 inch and XLR mic inputs). The NADY SP-4C Dynamic Microphone is a low-cost microphone which comes with a 1/4 inch cable, and gets a 4.0 user rating overall from 70 user reviews, although get a minority of user reviews saying that it is unreliable, so if you want something better rated, pay a bit more for the Behringer XM8500 Dynamic Microphone, Cardioid, which gets an excellent 4.7 overall user rating (with no negative reviews at all), plus a suitable mic cable such as the Pyle-Pro PPMJL15 Professional Microphone Cable (1/4” Male to XLR Female, 15 ft.) . You might also want a microphone stand or two.

You might need some more music CD’s.
