Slide 8
In the Studio When laying down tracks, everything must be
perfectly in tune especially when dealing with punch ins/outs and
recording loops. With a normal tuning system, it takes a
considerable amount of time to maintain this threshold of accuracy.
With Min-ETune you stay perfectly in tune, so you can make better
use of your time and capture that next big hit. On Stage Does your
setlist consist of pop songs in E Standard, grunge songs in Drop D,
an alt metal song in D Standard, and a blues song in open G with
bottle slide? There is no need to drag along 4 guitars to the gig
with Min-ETune. Quickly switch tunings between songs with just a
few strums. And it doesnt matter how loud your bandmates are,
Min-ETune automatically adjusts by sensing the tension of the
strings, and dials in to perfect tune with an isolated piezo pickup
that is immune to outside noise. When Writing Sometimes songwriting
happens right where the inspiration hits you in the back of a tour
bus, on the balcony of your city apartment or around a campfire.
With Min-ETune, changing the tuning is easy, and almost instantly a
single guitar opens up the entire world of musical expression. So
when the muse strikes and you create that unique song, save the
tuning in the programmable bank of the system for safe
keeping.
Slide 9
Enthusiast Keep on Rocking Min-ETune is fast, easy, accurate
and removes the inconvenience of getting in tune. It also opens
your play to more sonic opportunities of open tunings. No need to
remember how to tune to open G to sound just like Keef. Ever tried
to learn a song from your favorite artists CD and you just cant get
it quite right? Chances are the track is played in an alternate
tuning. The Min- ETune system allows you to quickly change from E
to E to Drop D so you can play along with your favorite recordings.
Beginner Ready to Rock? How many of us have struggled with pitch
pipes, tuning forks or complex electronic tuners as beginners? When
learning the guitar, time is of the essence you want to get playing
fast. With Min-ETune, you will spend your time learning how to rock
instead of tuning your guitar.
Slide 10
Take the famed Onkyo sound on the road with ES-HF300 and
ES-FC300 On- Ear Headphones. Your passion for music is reflected in
the aluminum driver housing, its shape referencing the volume
control on our iconic audio components. The single-arm design
creates a clean, elegant profile accentuated with brushed and
burnished aluminum. Soft leatherette earpads and headband make for
comfortable listening, but that's just the beginning: two 40 mm (1
9/16) titanium drivers, bass reflex sub-chambers, and rigid
construction combine to present a wonderfully clear stereo image.
These headphones handle everything from Mendelssohn to metal, with
deep-reaching bass and a detailed mid-range-testament to the long
hours spent tuning the drivers to perfection. The flat elastomer
cable design of the ES-FC300 resists knots and tangles while the
ES-HF300 include an audiophile-grade copper cable, which provides
almost perfect conductivity for superior sound quality. Protected
by transparent elastomer to insulate against touch noise, the
one-piece cable has gold-plated connections and is the perfect
length for travel. Details such as the flat-folding design and
detachable cable make it easier to enjoy component-quality
audio
