Phillip Scobee has joined the Electro-Voice team as Product Manager for Electro-Voice Concert Sound.

Phillip ScobeeA designer of high-end touring sound systems for artists such as Kenny Chesney and Sugarland, Scobee be responsible for both new and existing Electro-Voice concert product lines. ‘I’ve designed large-scale touring rigs for many different artists and I’ve used a lot of EV equipment over the years,’ he confirms, ‘We chose EV for those tours because we believe so strongly in the quality of the products, which is the same reason that I’m now going to work for the company.’

Scobee’s connection to Electro-Voice equipment dates back to his involvement with installed sound and has continued into his work in tour sound. He joins a team with which he is already very familiar, not only as a customer but also from having been directly involved in the refinement of several of Electro-Voice’s key live sound technologies, including both Iris-Net control software and FIR-Drive DSP filtering. ‘EV has always had an engineering staff that is willing to work with you,’ he says. ‘They aren’t just trying to tell you how to do it, they’re willing to make changes to accommodate what you need.’

In his new position, he will report to Business Line Manager, Brian Divine. Scobee will be actively involved in defining new products to meet customer needs, as well as supporting existing lines. Both will afford him plenty of opportunity to work even more closely with the Electro-Voice engineering staff. ‘I expect to be a voice inside the factory for everyone who’s out there doing concert sound,’ he says. ‘Having been on the front lines for so long, I’ve got a first-hand understanding of the issues that concert sound professionals face. My job will be to help give them what they need from us in order to provide the best possible concert experience for both artists and audiences.’
