Gemini 1 is a 12" full-range digital amplified speaker cabinet with integrated studio quality USB audio interface for use with modelers and software-based guitar systems.

Mission EmPower Technology features multi-channel class-D power amplifiers, active crossovers with variable EQ and full-range co-axial drivers, all designed from the ground up to work together as the perfect amplification solution for modeling systems. Gemini 1 features a 110W internal amplifier, 12" low-frequency driver, and 1" coaxial high-frequency driver providing a frequency range from 57Hz–20KHz. Pro-audio 1/4" jack and XLR connectors, USB and connect Gemini amps directly with software-based guitar systems on computers, tablets and smartphones, as well as dedicated guitar processors.

The studio-quality onboard digital audio interface features bit perfect class 2 stereo audio, with selectable sampling rates up to 192KHz and 24-bit. This allows you to play and record directly into your PC or Mac without any additional hardware. The EmPower EQ control allows blending between a flat or a more traditional guitar cab frequency response. Gemini can be used as a flat-frequency response power amp and speaker, or as an onstage monitor with a more traditional guitar cab frequency response. Full-range flat response (FRFR) systems can often sound harsh and brittle when used as a monitor compared to a traditional tube amp. Empower allows you to dial in just the right blend depending on your application. Gemini can also be miked up like a traditional speaker cab.

Sophisticated connectivity supports a multitude of different input and output options via combo XLR-/1/4" jack and USB inputs. With a single Gemini 1, stereo inputs are summed into a mono signal and output through the internal speaker drivers. Add a second Gemini 1, and PresenceDetect automatically determines the master/slave configuration and routes the stereo signals to the appropriate left and right Gemini units. Multiple inputs are mixed so you can connect a guitar and a USB device simultaneously to play along with a recording.

Gemini's advanced power system provides a number of benefits not found in traditional guitar amplifiers. Integrated 100–240 input voltage and 50/60Hz compatibility means you can use Gemini almost anywhere in the world without requiring heavy and expensive transformers. Just connect directly to wall power wherever you are with a suitable cable. Power-saving features, such as a high-efficiency power supply and deep-sleep modes for internal components mean Mission Gemini's use a fraction of the power of a regular amp, costing less to run and wasting less energy. The included V-Lock power cable ensures the power is correctly connected, and protects against the cable being accidentally pulled out.

The Gemini 1 will grace any stage or studio. Each cabinet is handmade from 3/4" void-free, Baltic birch with a high-quality black Tolex covering, black basket weave acoustic speaker covering and chrome hardware. Guitarists using rack-mount guitar processors, such as the Fractal Audio-Axe-FX, Avid Eleven Rack or Pod HD PRO, can use the Gemini H 19" rack head and build the perfect modeling half-stack.

The Mission Gemini 1 is made in California, USA, and features a two-year manufacturers warranty.

Guitar Player Magazine- December 2014 Issue, Reviewer Bryan Turner
"The cabinet produces great tones almost as soon as it is fired up. When I used it to jam with some friends before even starting the review, I was digging it and feeling goose bumps on my arms from the organic, punchy, and ferocious guitar tones it translated from the Kemper. Wow. One of the first things that struck me about this cab was the comparison of let's say, paper or plastic? My PA wedges sounded a bit plastic with the Kemper probably due to the horn design and in comparison the Mission cab had a more paper sound, now to me that is what a guitar cab should sound like, softer and more natural.

Oh yeah, it has power, and in spades. The Gemini 1 gets as loud as you need it to be without hissing, crackling, or any other audible gremlins. This thing can roast your pant legs off! Its biggest secret however is the single EmPower EQ knob that tailors the sound between 'full range flat response' reproducing and a darker, more realistic, 'tube-amp-like' guitar-cabinet tone. Thanks to the EmPower EQ, I could get my rig dialed up and sounding great in about ten seconds. Really."
