Gemini CTRL-SIX Software Controller System
The Gemini CTRL-SIX is a powerful MIDI controller for use with DJ software, such as Gemini’s GROOVE, combined with a traditional input/output mixer section with a soundcard. The Gemini CTRL-SIX comes with a total of 46 buttons, 5 faders, and 18 rotary knobs that all come MIDI-mapped for use with your choice of DJ software. All these controls are also freely assignable for the enterprising and “outside-the-box” DJ. The CTRL-SIX features 2 individual mixing channels with 2 large touch-sensitive jog wheels for scratching, cueing, and other assignable parameters. The CTRL-SIX is switchable between USB bus-power or a DC adapter, giving DJs control over their power option.
But the beauty of the CTRL-SIX lies in its input/output section with 2-channels of switchable line/phone inputs, mic input, as well as XLR and RCA outputs. Instead of incorporating bulky interface cards and enclosures, the CTRL-SIX combines MIDI control with audio inputs and outputs to manage your sound. The advantages are obvious: all-in-one connectivity, traditional mixer-style input/output, consolidated and lightweight for excellent portability, and perhaps most advantageous, a hardware soundcard that frees-up your computer’s resources, allowing you to dedicate your CPU processing power for other uses.
