Decent Table,
By
This review is from: Gemini PDT-6000 Digital Professional Turntable
I've had a pair of these for little less than a year, and they've worked OK so far. The digital readout is good for visually seeing the pitch, but the bpm counter and master tempo serve no function for an experienced DJ. The counter wont read the time of complex beats such as hip-hop or jungle. It will only help you if you are playing music with a strong 4 on the floor beat such as house or trance. Even then, it is only accurate to 1 percent, there is no decimal place; most beat matching requires a much higher accuracy. The master tempo allows you to change the speed without changing the pitch. However, if you adjust it more than 4%, the music will sound choppy like a low bit-rate mp3, which is horrible for live performance. Remember that on any turntable most songs will sound ok if they are within 4% of the original speed. There's lots of cool features, but remember, more features means more things to break.

Surpasses the Technics SL-1200,
By Arca Jenkins "Arcano-fox" (Amherst, MA USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Gemini PDT-6000 Digital Professional Turntable
Many DJs would consider it blasphemous to claim that another turntable evens comes near the Technics SL-1200, let alone surpass it in quality. And yet, the Gemini PDT-6000 does just that. As far as base specifications go, it is to my experienced hand indistinguishable from the 1200, including torque and brake power, tonearm construction (which is actually better in the Gemini), and pitch adjustment. However, all of the above can be fully customized; the brake and torque strengths can be pulled down to nearly zero and the pitch control can be set to +/- 4, 8, 16, or 35 percent. And all without opening the case. Combine this with the ability to change the pitch of the song without changing the speed, and vice versa, and you have a deck that gives you more creative control over your music than anything else on the market. There are several other features, such as a digital readout which makes bending the tempo incredibly easy, a BPM counter (which generally can find the tempo of songs with a strong kick with 5% accuracy, which makes it nearly useless), and a button that switches off the pitch adjustment. The only downside with this deck is that it has perhaps too many bells and whistles, and as such can be confusing and overwhelming for a beginner.
