This is a full review video of the new Gemini First Mix DJ Controller with Mixvibes Software. For more information, reviews, and DJ News (updated daily) Check our Blog link above!
Its pretty good, i have been performing live in my school. Its earned me so much money that ive been able to afford a traktor.
I love your videos man! They always give me a good understanding of the products!
So im ready to become an official dj. I can work VirtualDj from my desktop with my mouse, but saw this video and got motivated. I like the price, but is there anything else on the market for beginners that has better specs, but within this price range?
@RealDJblaze It's not about Gemini/MixVibes software, it's about your computer and soundcard setup. Anyway, thanks for review!
how do you turn it on? i plugged mine into my macbook pro that i bought this year. and it won't turn on. any help?
@RealDJblaze Hi! Nice review. But the latency is really terrible. On official video latency is good enough.
Did use ASIO drivers?
Perfect toy to give your kids for Xmas.
thanks, Dj Booth, this is a great review of the product.
i've been wanting to learn how to DJ for some time now. Would you recommend this for a beginner with a low budget?
hey dude thx for doing this video i'v been looking for something within budget and basic to make my own mixes too for my own videos and needed to know if it was worth it which you'v shown.....nice vid!!! now i know im going to get my moneys worth
Other controllers that will fit in a laptop bag are Pioneer DDJ Wego, Mixvibes U-Mix Control Pro 2, and JB Systems DJ Kontrol 1 and 2, as well as a kit of Traktor Kontrol X1+Z1. Currently chosing between them lot, it's difficult >.>
Any opinions or input will be appreciated!
i got this last year and its pretty much really really cheap but its something that i use on the side just in case i need a emergency drop for my bass and just to tell you it looks small but thats the bright side i can bring it in the car just for fun
Does it need to pay for the software? Or it comes with the Cd and you just gotta install in your computer?
Where did the music play, i mean it was so loud did you connect a speaker or it jUst came out from the Gemini controller
@TechnicianMad Well maybe you are right, but still buy 2 Pioneers CDJ and a mixer is not cheap, obviously I'm not going to go with the Gemini Firstmix a club but it's better to hang out at home you know?
hey bro um not a dj but I want to be one so as a beginner do u prefer this one ?
@RealDJblaze - Are you sure the Griffin Dj cable is Ok for gemini first mix ? does it run ? you test it ? just because i would like to buy 1 of this Gemini first mix but no headphone output is useless...
I heard that you only have to use sync button on this controller, is that true? Please reply before i waste my money. Thanks
***** Not a DJ that plays in parties or anything, i just want to try it, if i liked DJ'ing, then i'll get a better one, would like to get a better one but its about the money lol
I don't get the people ridiculing this totally as a 'toy'. There is a new version of this for around £100 now with a built-on sound-card. But granted, I don't know how to dj and beat-match at all. If I reverted back to the old turntable routine, it's going to cost me 2 decks, a mixer, speakers and plus, heaps of records - we're talking a grand which I don't have!! I prefer something like this for my past-time and pleasure!
hey thx man im 11 years old and want to start djing and your vid helps alot so now i have to debate wether i get the ion discover dj or that lol but at least i can afford them ill be posting vidios on youtube and hope fully i get good
yeah i dont think its 100% but its good to start and i was gonna split software one to make beats just for the creativity ....any good starters i should look at??
i just ordered this
do you have to use it on your computer?
were did you bought this ? its pretty cheap I wanna buy it
hey, are you able to remap the controls on this?
with mixvibes?
with vdj? or serato?
they look a lot like the Ion Discover Dj. differences between the 2?
Can you use spotify as your playlist ?
Any midi controller that has the ability to control LFO effect or has knobs is the best!
'Work with Virtual DJ ? is The software included better than Virtual DJ ?
This or should i go with computer programs?
its like the mixtrack they both dont have a sound card for asio support which mean delay if you have a sound card then get it sound card fix the delay when scratching
In the beginning of this video it seemed like you were holding in your laugh about this controller lol
is this compatible with OSX 10.4.11 ?
Help me with the mapping for gemini firstmix i/o Virtual Dj ?? PLEASE !!
I have a Macbook Pro and my Gemini Firstmix is not being identified on my laptop and not working period! Is my laptop to new for this product? Any other things it could be?
***** would you mind sending me a link to the latest software, I have been looking and nothing seems to be coming up. Thanks and appreciate it!
Hey man this is good for parties :D
One question I have bought it. Now the soft ware works perferctly however the turn tables its self wont turn on I need help
***** It spins but the actual controller wont even turn on is due to me having windows 8?
Does it work on virtual Dj software?
Yes.
My mom said i can get the numarkmix track pro or the hercules air controler so i can pick one of thoses whice one would u get for a begginer??? thanks!
What would someone suggest for someone trying to get into more of cuts and scratches rather than just mixing? Thanks!
@UglyToontown Yeah but how you gunna learn to dj on this if it doesnt have pitch sliders?
what about a software to break music up like from vocals to instrumentals and so forth?
I'm having problems with windows XP sp3, mixvibes doesn't detect the device. But it works when i use it on a MAC.
@Wil8789 You gotta find some Technics for that or the V7s which both run you about $500 a piece. I hear theres a Numark turntables that are pretty cheap but are still decent, but ive never tried them so im not sure how well they work. Sadly, Pro DJ gear will drain your bank account. But if it didnt, then everybody would be a DJ.
Whats the difference between the firstmix i/o and the firstmix pro?
would this be good for a complet beggener who never touched or even saw a real turn table????? i was going to get a mix track pro but my mom says i wont like djing so she wont let me buy it she said if its under $100.00 in canada i can get it!? i really think i would like scratching if that means any thing about what turntable i get!! please reply ASAP thanks!
I buy this mixer
is this good for sweet 16 parties?
Can you backspin it to emulate a record sound? Looking for a cheap way of getting that effect from mp3s for a project. Thanks
hey man, can i use this with the virtual dj software?
Also where can i get one ?
@TAILDILY yes you can use with virual dj and traktor
I use the numark dj/io for queing and it has a mic input also. about $60 on ebay!!
how do you listen to the head phones or how do you set up can you do a video on it i have the first mix i/o and i have not found a way to cue the songs on here i dont know how to setup
I think you should be able to get a DJ adapter for 10$ (available from brands Traktor, Mixvibes, Urbanears) which splits stereo signal into two mono signals, one goes to your headphone, other goes to the speakers. You would need specifically a DJ splitter and not a normal headphone splitter. You don't really need stereo signal when DJing - you won't be listening with both ears all the time and the club PAs are usually mono anyway. Of course it's not a pro solution, the laptop soundcards simply don't give a decent power level, but then again this controller is a toy, so it's a solution which fits.
The only question is, whether the bundled version of Mixvibes software allows this setup, where cue goes completely to one channel and mix to the other on one stereo output?
This also makes it obvious what they could have done better, namely they could have bundled such a cable and preset the software to run this way.
Though of course most tower computers have 3 stereo outputs as opposed to one on most laptops, so you can use it on those out of the box.
Well the only Problem in my eyes is the fixed usb cable, but with a soldering iron i think it would be fixable :D
does it work with virtual dj ?
Can you use Windows XP with this program???
In malaysia it cost $Rm338, but with the sad part is limited time only... right after this im gonna get one! like now!
brother if I do not have cd only works for 10 minutes because some other program
That doesnt make any sense.
it works on virtaul dj for mac
Why would they put markers on the platters if they don't move?....
how can u use this as a controller for Virtual DJ or Traktor? is that possible?
@supermen133 YOU CAN USE IT WITH TRAKTOR AND VIRTUAL DJ.
whats the difference between numark mixtrack 2 and pro 2
whats it good for?
I want it to work with my Virtual DJ Pro Full but it's not working. Do you know why?
***** Okay thanks.
is it really THAT horrible even for beginners?
if you want a portible controler get the dj2go by numark
lol shit was funny bro. You are right about it being good on those long boring flights
@RealDJblaze i did, i took it back were i got it from and the guy intalled the same thing on his laptop and it worked great, idk what to do
how do you record an actual mix and export it as a wav/mp3 file?
Hi can you you this with virtual dj....????
Can someone please tell me the rate of gemini firstmix in ‘india' ?
I GOT A QUESTION CAN THS DJ SET WORK WIT A DJ SOFTWARE I DOWNLOADED CALLED MIXXX.????? PLZ NOTIFY ME
Mine won't turn on now, I plugged it in and it never made the sound on my windows that indicates something was plugged in.
If it died you can replace it with the discover DJ or the similar one from numark, you can get em on ebay for like 20 bucks.
Thx
Two questions it seems like I need the disc inside my laptop to open up the mix vibe software to start DJing how do i undo this so that I don't need the disc? I installed the software with the activation code...and 2 how do i record the music I DJed?
Good day, how do I download the software of this controller
what is the license key number?
is not a toy is just a bit small but work very good
hola amigo espero que puedas respónder mi pregunta como se puede recuperar la clave de la licensia ya que la perdi donde venia en la caja
hola amigo. conseguiste la clave de la licensia?
What song is this???
im having trouble installing it, the mixer itself wont turn on! HELP!!
hola, este controlador funciona con virtual dj????
qual software gratuito pra funcionar ela
whats the niki minaj song around 8:30 ??
i have one but it does not turn on. i need help
ive never heard of one of these untill now but you dont really need this if u wanna start off djing because this wont be any good so if something is not good to use how could some one no if wanting to be a dj is right for them by using this,,,,,,,b4 i turned to pro mixers i used a cheep mixer in uk money it cost 200 pound and it was crap and i almost gave up on music then i used a pioneer and i loved it and i bought pro stuff then
why don't you just use a headphone splitter?
Man does this controller has +/- pitch buttons?
***** Between Numarl DJ2GO, Discover Dj ION and this one! Which one do you recommend for start DJing?
Marlon Arocha Those are all toys. None of them. If you want to stay super cheap either get a Mixtrack Pro or even a DJ-Tech Poket DJ Duo.
@supermen133 yes you can =)
wear can you find it for 80 dollars
why didnt they put a pitch slider? get rid of that gosh damn sync button already.
Hey bro can I arbor your Gemini plz
What are you talking about? they clearly move...he moves them in the video...
Are people actually buying this? I guess that's what djs said back in 98 when i bought the gemini scratch master box lol. Seems wierd that this product is supposed to teach djs to mix and it doesnt have pitch sliders on it. sigh...
wat is it gud 4
Por casuolidad alguien tiene el software plis plis
why?
i bought that shit 100 euro from E-bay and maaaan.. it seemed much more bigger.. I mean the photoshoped it for sure and the backround was a laptop's size and the way they edited it it seemed much more cooler and it came in box about 50cm and the 30cm controller came out and i was like.. DAFUUQQ ?? 0.0.. it's good for me though cz I'm a begginer so.. yep I'm having a prety much fun with it
