nice review on the player..im going to get these...nice budget cdj players for guys like me..who strictly a house music dj..thanks for showing and sharing
Man this video really helped me out, I've been using denon 3500 for the longest time and the 700's felt way too stationary for me so I didn't want to go near them because I'm so used to scratching on a cdj that's actually moving I rarely use loops so I didn't wanna take the time to figure this out but its way easier than I thought so I'm definitely gonna get some usb's set up so I can start mixing at my homies house on the 700's he just got
I wish these had the ability to share memory devices over a hub. Both Denon and Pioneer have that, not to mention the ability now to find tracks using a laptop and offload them into the transport completely. Forget sync.
I just want a low budget cdj for the Rec room set up for simple mixing and playing around. I really do like this unit, unfortunately I can not find it in Canada.
thnx again probably will get with the gemini i want something to replicate the club feel of the 2000s and i think the gemini will work better thnx again you're awesome
Thankyou for you quick reply, cool this may be a cheap, and fairly reasonable alternative to more costly machines out there esp Ittwo machines can be used for traktor, its like best of both worlds ie digital and traditional cd's etc
Does cdj 700 memorize hot cues? Imagine if you make an hot cue on a song. Then you shut the player off. When you turn on again, the hot cue made on the song will be there? like on cdj 2000?
really. so do you think it is better to use with out sl product or without. the problem i have always had with midi controlers is they never sound like acual vynal scratching like with timcode.
What u mean to say is the scratching is off, but u put it out there in a nice way. the problem with that is, u get it home, start mixing and immediatly get disappointed like i did when bought a cortex dmix300, another Gemini product (i shoulda known better) u get what u pay for. good quality doesn't come cheap. my opinion save ur money invest better. i have a graveyard of sub standard equipment to prove my point.
i appreciate the response, too difficult to find a decent mid-range deck. pioneer really does maintain monopoly over the cdj spectrum, i just can't afford to break the bank.
One thing Ive noticed with many players that aren't Pioneer is that often the BPM Hops around a lot and wont stay as nice and consistent as the Pioneer range. What's the BPM reader like on these units?
thnx for the feedback.still do you recommend the cdmp7000.i don't care about the mixer or the stiff jogwheel but i am concerned about the build quality of the unit.i know that it cost 1/3 of the equivalent setup of cdj 850s and djm 350. however i want to know whether it is going to last.again thnx for the replies.
Can this thing work in sort of a hybrid mode like the Denon s1200 or 3700? Can you use it to control serato scratch live with timecode and use the midi function all at the same time?
I knew that pioneer is top notch. I wanted these due to price. And simular to 900. Is is bad quLity to were i shouldnt buy or would you use them if they were givdn to u.
So is a Versadeck, though, and it can share the devices. I don't think these features are the reason Denon and Pioneers cost so much more. CDJ 1000 never had them and still cost a lot more, too.
Can you put quantization on loops? You can look for a specific music file only based on the name of the mp3, or you can do it based on the name of the artist, title of the song, bpm, etc.?
im looking for a cdj that wont break my bank... would you recommend these? i seen a pair here in the uk for £669 inc postage... im very interested in these...
Who can help me? im interesting for the pioneer cdj 850, but it is to expensiv! now i found the cdj 700 of gemini!! Where are the differences between cdj 700 gemini or cdj 850 of pioneer? i would buy the cdj 850, but its to expensiv!! and i would buy djm 850 with gemini cdj 700, work the gemini at pioneer djm 850? is the gemini 700 soo bad??
Just got two of these.. The Beatmatching on them is not good, I get the beat matched and then it goes off beat, do you know what could be the problem? Thank you.
Hey Kareem.. You say its tough to scratch with these but I'm coming from a kontrol s2. One of the main reasons I want CDJs is so I can have larger wheels so I can learn to scratch properly... should I look for a different unit?
Any that you would recommend that have a similar layout to CDJ2000s but not much more expensive? Thinking around 1500$ for 2decks + a mixer? Thanks again.
I have a pair of these... Is it normal that when you let go of the cue button it takes a but for the music to stop? And is it also normal that it freezes occasionally and has a few weird glitches? Please help... I have 3 months to,bring them back yeah
Ive just seen the price of the SL2,3,4 soundcards and really cant afford it.. would you recommend getting traktor or would I need a soundcard for that aswell?
would you say the bpm estimates are accurate? I know its good to learn by ear but I've only just started learning, plus im trying to mix more upbeat tunes like baseline and dub which are obviously a lot harder...
great review man, sadly i will return the one i got ...it skips the music randomly no matter if its mp3 , .wav form usb , cd etc..... i got it to play cds and nonstop cds will skip on the track division,,, emailed 3 times support , nothing, left message for them on facebook page , nothing....updated to vers 4.4 nothing.....i own pioneer gear , i just wanted to try something different...didn't went well.. again , i enjoy your reviews , maybe this message travels farther than my previous ones.... tc .
Do you think the layout and interface are close enough to a CDJ-850 that I could use one of these as an emergency backup? I'm trying to avoid buying a third expensive deck "just in case."
How can I use two of these with Serato? Do I connect them to my mixer and use one of the USB cords to connect to the pc or do I have to connect both of the cords? Can someone please help!?
Omg thank you so much man! :D I just bought them, Im switching from a Numark iCdmix2 to two of these and plan on using the iCdmix's mixer, but when I have enough money Ill buy a mixer, which mixer do you recommend?
Hi Kareem, im getting a Gemini CDMP-7000 soon, i wanted to ask if the jogwheels of the CDJ-700 are the same size as the jogwheels on the CDMP-7000.. I can't find it anywhere, thanks in advance bro!
It looks like some one described a CDJ-2000 through the phone.
nice review on the player..im going to get these...nice budget cdj players for guys like me..who strictly a house music dj..thanks for showing and sharing

it also works with any portable hard drive. I use a Toshiba 1tb. it works well with it.
yo kareem thanks for the review, when u mentioned the scratch difficulty it changed my mind and decided to go with the denon sc3900
I wish these had the ability to share memory devices over a hub. Both Denon and Pioneer have that, not to mention the ability now to find tracks using a laptop and offload them into the transport completely.

I just want a low budget cdj for the Rec room set up for simple mixing and playing around. I really do like this unit, unfortunately I can not find it in Canada.
i am have decided to buy components instead of all in one set up
thnx again probably will get with the gemini i want something to replicate the club feel of the 2000s and i think the gemini will work better thnx again
you're awesome
Thankyou for you quick reply, cool this may be a cheap, and fairly reasonable alternative to more costly machines out there esp Ittwo machines can be used for traktor, its like best of both worlds ie digital and traditional cd's etc
If you have a audio box it should be able to scratch a lil better with response especially if you're using midi-cpu.. I Might use them with serato..
So DJ Blaze... was the scratching fine with regular scratching, but just not with the really fast scratching?
do a full review for the new Gemini MDJ 1000!!!!!!!!!
Does cdj 700 memorize hot cues? Imagine if you make an hot cue on a song. Then you shut the player off. When you turn on again, the hot cue made on the song will be there? like on cdj 2000?

what do you think is better, the cdmp 7000 or cdj 700s and a mixer....considering price and performance
i appreciate the response, too difficult to find a decent mid-range deck. pioneer really does maintain monopoly over the cdj spectrum, i just can't afford to break the bank.
Awesome channel.
i really enjoy all your videos and i don't want to be anniying but can you request a cdmp7000 unit from gemini
i think i gonna buy this one, do you have any idea with mixer is fine with this one? which one do you advice?
One thing Ive noticed with many players that aren't Pioneer is that often the BPM Hops around a lot and wont stay as nice and consistent as the Pioneer range. What's the BPM reader like on these units?
so this has midi mapping? does that mean you can use this with traktor WITHOUT the native instruments soundcard like you can with the pioneer cdj 350?
thanks for your reviews! they're really helpful!
Quick question,
is there any defaults in this player? or is it a 100% working unit
Awesome, thank you! Will consider it.
thnx for the feedback.still do you recommend the cdmp7000.i don't care about the mixer or the stiff jogwheel but i am concerned about the build quality of the unit.i know that it cost 1/3 of the equivalent setup of cdj 850s and djm 350. however i want to know whether it is going to last.again thnx for the replies.
yea sorry about that i found it later. it was a little harder to find. but as usual great review.
Can this thing work in sort of a hybrid mode like the Denon s1200 or 3700? Can you use it to control serato scratch live with timecode and use the midi function all at the same time?
I mayby upgrade my setup and sell traktor s4 and buy djm 700 or 850 and 2/3 these cdj, how these works now with the update
no i know but i mean that if you want to use it in midi mode, do u need traktor scratch pro 2, or can u just use traktor pro 2
I knew that pioneer is top notch. I wanted these due to price. And simular to 900. Is is bad quLity to were i shouldnt buy or would you use them if they were givdn to u.
So is a Versadeck, though, and it can share the devices. I don't think these features are the reason Denon and Pioneers cost so much more. CDJ 1000 never had them and still cost a lot more, too.
does this work with serato, also how the quality compared to cdj 900.
just buy cdj800mk2? or second hand cdj1000mk3? although without usb!!
do i need to plug this into a laptop ? or can i use it just with a mixer
The funny thing about a fare percentage of reviews about audio and equipment is that videos themselves never really have great audio playback.
Can you put quantization on loops? You can look for a specific music file only based on the name of the mp3, or you can do it based on the name of the artist, title of the song, bpm, etc.?
How to configure this with hercules 4mx console please help,I'm not able to control the volume.
You have gained a new subscriber! Great videos!! But how comes the Cue light is orange on your CDJ 700 and on all others it is pink/red?

Who can help me? im interesting for the pioneer cdj 850, but it is to expensiv! now i found the cdj 700 of gemini!! Where are the differences between cdj 700 gemini or cdj 850 of pioneer?
i would buy the cdj 850, but its to expensiv!!

Hey Kareem.. You say its tough to scratch with these but I'm coming from a kontrol s2. One of the main reasons I want CDJs is so I can have larger wheels so I can learn to scratch properly... should I look for a different unit?

I want to buy it!
Ive just seen the price of the SL2,3,4 soundcards and really cant afford it.. would you recommend getting traktor or would I need a soundcard for that aswell?
would these be a good alternative to the cdj 350?
can cdj 700 save the hot cues on a usb stick or when turned off the device erased from memory?
I think so, but I'm not 100% sure... it's been a LONG time since I've used one of these...
Hey Kareem Do you think this is better quality than the Numark NDX900's??

great review man, sadly i will return the one i got ...it skips the music randomly no matter if its mp3 , .wav form usb , cd etc..... i got it to play cds and nonstop cds will skip on the track division,,, emailed 3 times support , nothing, left message for them on facebook page , nothing....updated to vers 4.4 nothing.....i own pioneer gear , i just wanted to try something different...didn't went well.. again , i enjoy your reviews , maybe this message travels farther than my previous ones.... tc .

Do you think the layout and interface are close enough to a CDJ-850 that I could use one of these as an emergency backup? I'm trying to avoid buying a third expensive deck "just in case."
Thanks! Easy decision then. Now if only they could make it read the rekordbox DB we'd all be in heaven.

Omg thank you so much man! :D I just bought them, Im switching from a Numark iCdmix2 to two of these and plan on using the iCdmix's mixer, but when I have enough money Ill buy a mixer, which mixer do you recommend?
Big giant touchscreen, nah… But usesable! Especially for someone who can’t afford a complete Pioneer set and wants something close to the clubs 🙌
Hi Kareem, im getting a Gemini CDMP-7000 soon, i wanted to ask if the jogwheels of the CDJ-700 are the same size as the jogwheels on the CDMP-7000..
