Well I thought before I buy these I should ask you guys for some advice/help…I dont have enough money to buy a better on-the-run mixer, so im about to buy this cheap Gemini CDM-3600, they are about (in pounds) 220… I saw the reviews at some website and the were pretty good. So if anyone has used it tell me about it, or, if you know better for the same or less cash I would really appreciate it…thanks a lot

March 24, 2008 at 8:22 pm #1158842When i was looking for my first cd decks i did quite a lot of research, asking people and internet generally …
i basically wouldnt spend less than £200-£250 on a single deck … basically down to durability and featues etc and well you dont want to have to be lumbered with a brick thats broke after a year!
i went for stanton c314’s … basically this deck is advertised as being a deck for people who want to scratch … well i dont but my reason for getting the ‘scratch emulater’ thing is that when you flick it onto ”vinyl” mode the jog wheel becomes ubersensitive which is really nice for findin the beat etc. http://www.decks.co.uk/products/cdplayers/stanton/c314 read more about it here … cant be bothered typin 😉
there is the stanton c313 which is a ton cheaper than the c314 and only doesnt feature an effects unit (i never use it but hey you might?)
now … when looking for a deck i advise a bigger jogwheel than the decks with smaller ones basically i find it gives more control … either that or ive got fat ‘ands!
decks.co.uk is a brill site and i no plenty off here use it … go and browse but seriously man … do ya homework!
my stantons have had drinks spilled on them, pushed off tables and still aint skipped!
anyway i hope ive helped, if not just a little 🙂
