Yes, i agree. Gemini's quality is far from good.
But this digital recorder they launched is quite the only one small,
afordable and simple enough to carry around. To record live sets, for
instance.
Gemini has a history here in Brazil. For a long time, gemini mixers
were the only ones we had here. Some old time djs are still using
gemini mixers cause they got so used to them they prefer not to get
around with better equipment. Well, my first mixer was a gemini too.
The sound was lame, the faders were heavy like parking breaks. But,
it was tough. And still works. Rough. :-D
The advantage of a long time mixing with crap mixers is that you
experience some peace of cake time mixing with better ones.
It was so simple for an iPod record line in sound in mp3 format. I
guess it's just not the market for the product. I could choose the
gemini recorder. But would have to try first.

If it's Gemini the same company that makes the mixers and such -
I'd be
wary about it. Overall I think their products are budget level intro
equipment that will eventually fail in one way or another. Sooner
than
you'd like too. I'd take the £99 and save it, add to it and buy
something
better.
that's been my experience with Gemini

There's a small box from Gemini called the i-Key which is pretty
handy- it records to a USB memory stick with variable bit rates-
after the recording is over you stick the memory stick into your
computer and burn the audio file straight to CD- currently sells for
£99 here in the UK

never dived into it, but i can imagine there are small gadgets
around,
i can't find my minidisc player (recorder),
which i sometimes use to record liveset or dj set
but i think some of the same are around, but which record as mp3?
so i don't need to record the minidisc first as audio,
then save as mp3
anyone?
tips!!?
