Shure Announces the Launch of On Tour With
Shure Magazine
February 4, 2000
Shure Incorporated announced the launch of On Tour
With Shure (OTWS), a magazine focused upon entertaining, informing and
creating an exchange with the artist community. On Tour With Shure's premier
issue contains original material about touring life from today's hottest
artists, exclusive photos, articles from top sound engineers, information
about new products, news about Shure's roster of artist endorsers and
more.
Featured in
the premier issue is an exclusive interview with Shure endorsing artist and legend,
Roger Daltrey of The Who. Daltrey reveals the truth about Woodstock, why the band
got booted from Holiday Inns and his live quality "test" of the SM58
in front of a stunned Shure crowd. In addition to this enlightening interview,
OTWS speaks to Melissa Etheridge's sound team, Filter frontman Richard Patrick
and Ziggy Marley about their latest albums and tours.
For those interested in the latest gear out of the box, OTWS offers insight
into the newly updated Shure T Series wireless systems and the Beta 87C, a new
microphone optimized for use with personal monitors. In a related product category
feature, OTWS puts the spotlight on personal ("in-ear") monitor systems
to learn why so many artists are being converted to this new way of monitoring.
Engineers Timothy Powell and Bill Sheppell also lend their expertise in live
sound to the first issue. Powell tells about his extraordinary experience of recording
The Who live on location at the House of Blues in Chicago, while Sheppell shares
his front-of-house tips of how to mic the raucous sounds of bands like Korn and
Limp Bizkit. In addition, John Cooper, live sound engineer for The Judds, and
Cheap Trick's guitar tech, Richard "Sven" Granert, reveal their ingenius
solutions to unique equipment problems on tour.
On Tour With Shure is published tri-annually and will be made available
at no cost to music equipment stores across the U.S. Consumers will be
able to obtain a free subscription via www.shure.com/otws
