A Word About Compatibility

The CTRL-SIX (and all Gemini products) are designed to interface as driverless USB devices. This means that the unit does not require proprietary driver software and can be accessed natively by a PC or Macintosh computer.

If you are having trouble, please find the compatability advisory sec- tion of our website, and let us know! In the vast majority of cases, support can be added for sub-standard units that deviate from typi- cal specifications.

The Gemini CTRL-SIX USB DJ controller is a powerful yet easy- to-use MIDI controller for use with DJ software, such as Gemi- ni’s GROOVE.

The CTRL-SIX gives performers the control and feel of a tradi- tional mixer/console that can be integrated into a laptop-based setup.

The CTRL-SIX also comes with an input/output section with 2-channels of switchable line/phone inputs, mic input, as well as XLR and RCA outputs, freeing up your computer audio and processing for other uses.

Virtual DJ LE Installation

STEP 1:

Place the installation CD into the CD-ROM drive. If you have activated the function “Automatic CD change recognition” on your computer, the CD menu will then start automatically. If not, you can start the file “install_virtualdj_v6.exe” straight from the installation CD by double clicking on the file with the left mouse button. To start the installation, click on “INSTALL” in the CD menu.

STEP 2:

From there, the installation “WIZARD” will walk you through the necessary steps needed to finish the software installation.

Cleaning the Unit

To clean the CTRL-SIX, use only a dry soft cloth and/or compressed air. If the unit is soiled with stubborn dirt, we suggest using a 2:1 solution of distilled water and 30% isopropyl alcohol. Avoid using harsh cleaning chemicals such as benzene, paint thinner, bleach, or hydrochloric acid, which will damage the unit.

Operating Conditions

For optimum performance, the temperature of the operating environ- ment should be between +5º C to +35º C (+41º F - +95º F). Failure to maintain proper operating temperature may result in difficulty reading the display, thermal overload, or system-wide instability. Avoid exposing the unit to direct sunlight.

When placing the unit in an installation, make sure that it is placed on a stable surface, as far away from vibrations as possible. Even though the unit is impervious to vibration, the storage devices (specifically hard drive based ones) that are designed to be used in conjunction with it are typically not. Also be sure not to place or use the player on heat generat- ing sources, such as amplifiers or near spotlights.

Never use any other power supply other than the one provided with the unit, as doing so may damage the unit and void the warranty. The power supply included with the CTRL-SIX is a custom made supply and is not commercially available.

STEP 3:

After installing, you should find an icon on your desktop for opening VirtualDJ.
