Wayne Shorter has been one of jazz's leading figures for decades, known for his brilliant compositional work and equally brilliant saxophone playing. From his early work with Maynard Ferguson, Art Blakey and Miles Davis (to name just a few) to founding Weather Report with Joe Zawinul and Miroslav Vitous in the 70’s, Wayne's contributions to jazz are legendary and his influence on generations of jazz musicians is profound.

Front Of House and Recording engineer Rob Griffin has handled Wayne's live performances and recordings since 2000, when Wayne started a world tour that is still going strong. Rob used a pair of Royer R-121's on Wayne's saxophone in 2001, and since then has used Royer's on live drums, bass, piano, guitar and other instruments.

Rob told us "I'm in this for the goosebumps, and I use Royer mics to translate the goosebumps.” Thank you Rob.
