I'd seriously doubt it, but who knows? I'll be at NAM, so I'll check it out...

Sound intresting. Until I have a firsthand encounter with it, Im sceptical. It looks good on paper, but its performance and long term strengh have yet to be determined.

We are getting there, but I'm guessing this thing will be expensive, and have various problems.

Shouldnt be too long untill we have a good one though.

hey its about time someone came out with a hybrid deck... i figured vestax would have spit one out first along with all their other crazy designs... honestly, i think a hybrid deck is in more demand than one that tilts

looks pretty cool, cant wait to see how it handles... im a bit confused as to why gemini would make a vinyl/cd deck and have the tonearm sold seperately i guess its meant to be a cd deck first and for those who want vinyl capability get a tonearm and youre good to go...an S shaped arm would be nice rather than just a str8

well done gemini for being the first to build the obviously wanted

Originally posted by tu_face the big question is, will the pitch control be analogue when in turntable mode?

I really doubt it because they "The CDT-05’s sturdy aluminum platter is driven by a CPU-controlled high-torque direct drive motor". It seems to me if you already are controlling the deck digitally that they would probobly keep it that way (since the slider is also digital during CD playback). It would be redundent to have both analog and digital controls but I know why you want it.

heh looks sweet

im guessing everything on this tt will be digital, except the needle. I think pioneer and technics should team up and make one...would be awesome (but pricey).

+1

But before that happens lets see how well this one performs. I have faith in gemini, but since it is the first of its kind theres bound to be problems. Wait for the second generation.

pioneer and technics are the same company anyway arn't they? or at least one owns the other or something....

Bleh, I don't like hybrids. I like every piece of my setup to do it's single assigned job and we'll leave it at that. It leaves me free to expand/swap for better parts, and if one thing goes down it doesn't take another down with it.

Even if Technics and Pioneer got together and put a CDJ-1000 into a M5G I wouldn't buy it.

it better be good damnit!

looks interesting though. wouldn't mind playing around with it.

just wish it didn't look so toy like.
