January 24, 2013 Dear Editor: Thank you so much for your consideration of these press announcements for QSC at Winter NAMM 2013. At this year’s show, QSC is proud to announce that a number of leading music artists, including Bass Player Darryl Jones, Songwriter/Keyboardist Jonathan Cain, Drummer Dave Weckl, Guitar Player Dweezil Zappa and Keyboard Player Salo Loyo have joined the QSC K for Musicians Family. Press Releases on each artist are available individually as well as in a group release for your convenience. A release announcing the first showing at NAMM of the QSC Acoustic Performance Loudspeakers, the company’s newest line of loudspeakers is also included. Finally, a release announcing that QSC Has Been Named One of the Top Places to Work in Orange County by the Orange County register – for the third year in a row – is also included. If you have any questions relating to any of these stories, or require more pictures, information or quotes, please do not hesitate to contact us. Best wishes, Margaret Sekelsky MSMedia (310) 823-5805 [email protected] FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Leading Music Artists Join the QSC K for Musicians Family Jonathan Cain, Darryl Jones, Salo Loyo, Dave Weckl and Dweezil Zappa Rely on the K Family Costa Mesa, CA (January 24, 2013) — QSC Audio Products, LLC is very pleased to announce of the addition of several acclaimed musicians to their rapidly expanding K for Musicians family, including songwriter, keyboardist, and longtime ‘Journey’ member Jonathan Cain, ‘The Rolling Stones’ bassist Darryl Jones, keyboardist Salo Loyo, drummer Dave Weckl and guitarist Dweezil Zappa. According to Darryl Jones, his bass rig, consisting of a pair of KW122s and a KW181 subwoofer, gives him a clean, powerful sound which is extremely versatile to suit the many different types of music he regularly plays. “Because I am involved in a lot of different kinds of music--rock and roll, electronic jazz, sounds with synth bass, solo projects with effects-- I always try to find the sound that fits the music I am playing. For rock and roll sounds, I use a tube amp sound. I find that I can use the rig for really big sounds like synth bass and bass with lots of effects, sequences that I am playing along with. This works great because the QSC rig is full range. For some of the other things that I am doing, I need a more of a pure, really clean, clear, powerful sound. That’s one of the things that led me to QSC,” explains Jones. “My rig sounds fantastic with very little, if any, EQ on the speakers,” reports Dave Weckl. “The KW Series reproduces my acoustic drum sound in a very natural, yet very high fidelity, manner. And the headroom is unbelievable; the rig has much more power than I ever use on stage.” “I honestly have never used any keyboard amp, speaker, PA system, wedge or in-ear system that comes even close to the sound and response I get from my K Series,” says Salo Loyo. “The sound is pure, clean and powerful. I don't have to worry about competing with anybody to be heard. And it's not just volume; I can play at any level and the sound cuts thru beautifully and clearly, without hurting anyone’s hearing.” Jonathan Cain adds, “I was amazed at the way that the K’s can really rock. I don’t think for the money, they can be beat. You would have to spend three, four times that amount of money to get something to come close.” Finally, Dweezil Zappa sums it up to say that his KW Series rig helps him have the sound that inspires him: “To make good music you have to be inspired by the sound, and I think my current setup is the best that I’ve had,” he says. “It does have more response with articulation - with the things that I play and with the nuances that I can get by inducing feedback or those things that you would expect from a guitar amp/speaker setup. I get the full-range frequency response but I also get the feel of pushing enough air so that it feels like a guitar cabinet.” Visit Jonathan Cain’s artist page at: http://kformusicians.com/english/artists/jonathan-cain/.

There are distinct areas for Electric Guitar, Acoustic Guitar, Bass Guitar, Keyboards, Electronic Drums and Acoustic Drums – as well as compelling K for Musicians artist profiles, photos and interviews.

For more information contact: Margaret Sekelsky MSMedia (310) 823-5805 [email protected] FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Rolling Stones’ Bass Player Darryl Jones Joins the K for Musicians Family Bassist Uses KW Series for Clean, Clear, Powerful Sound Costa Mesa, CA (January 24, 2013) — QSC Audio Products, LLC is pleased to welcome bassist Darryl Jones to the rapidly expanding list of musicians who have joined the K for Musicians family. A celebrated musician who has played with some of the most acclaimed artists, in jazz, blues, and the rock music worlds, Jones is the bassist for The Rolling Stones. Jones had his first introduction to the K Series and KW Series while on tour, interestingly, by two drummers – Omar Hakim and Dave Weckl. “Omar Hakim told me he was playing his electronic drum kit through a QSC rig and recommended it to me. Then I was out on tour with Oz Noy and Dave Weckl, who was using it for his drum monitoring system. When I heard what was he was doing with it, I asked him to hook me up with guys at QSC,” says Jones. According to Jones, his bass rig, consisting of a pair of KW122s and a KW181 subwoofer, gives him a clean, powerful sound which is extremely versatile to suit the many different types of music he regularly plays. “Because I am involved in a lot of different kinds of music—rock and roll, electronic jazz, sounds with synth bass, solo projects with effects—I always try to find the sound that fits the music I am playing. For rock and roll sounds, I use a tube amp sound. I find that I can use the rig for really big sounds like synth bass and bass with lots of effects, sequences that I am playing along with. This works great because the QSC rig is full range. For some of the other things that I am doing, I need a more of a pure, really clean, clear, powerful sound. That’s one of the things that led me to QSC,” explains Jones. Darryl Jones began his career performing with Miles Davis and played bass guitar on the Davis albums Decoy and You’re Under Arrest. Jones has worked with jazz artists such as Herbie Hancock, Mike Stern, John Scofield, and Steps Ahead, as well as pop and rock artists like Sting, Peter Gabriel, Madonna, and Eric Clapton. For the last 19 years, Darryl Jones has been the bassist for The Rolling Stones. In addition, he is currently working on a number of projects including Three Brave Souls with John Beasley, and rock trio called The Stone Raiders. The Stone Raiders is a rock trio, but is kind of ‘blues forward’—it is blues-based music that is more aggressive,” adds Jones. ”The KW Series fits in well with that, because when I need to play at a high volume level, it’s clean and clear. When I want to dirty up that sound, I can add the tube amp to do that. So I can cover a lot of ground with the QSC rig.” Visit Darryl Jones’s artist page at: http://kformusicians.com/english/artists/darryl-jones/ About K for Musicians Musicians themselves were the genesis for the creation of KforMusicians.com, leading the way via online forum discussions touting the company’s active loudspeakers as the perfect solution for accurate sound reproduction of digital sources in a live application.

    An Autocratic Approach to Music Copyright?: the Means Through Which Frank Zappa Translated and Adapted Both His Own and Other Composers’ Music

    Performa ’09 – Conference on Performance Studies University of Aveiro, May 2009 An Autocratic Approach to Music Copyright?: The means through which Frank Zappa translated and adapted both his own and other composers’ music Paul Carr, University of Glamorgan [email protected] Aims In preparation for an examination of how and why such a diverse range of tribute bands and ensembles are so intent on continuing to experiment with Zappa’s music despite the threat of legal challenges, and an investigation into the various philosophical, legal and industrial factors behind why the ZFT are so intent on selectively prohibiting performances of his music, this paper will discuss the ironic means through which Zappa expressed himself consistently through both recorded and live performance during his 27 years in the public eye. Context Since the death of Frank Zappa in 1993, there has been an ongoing legal battle between the Zappa Family Trust (ZFT) and the so called ‘tribute bands’ that are determined to continue translating his music through live and recorded mediums. It could be argued that these ensembles effectively not only pay direct homage to Zappa’s legacy by interpreting his music in numerous innovative ways, but also keep his memory alive by interfacing with both his long standing audience, and with a younger generation who may not be aware of his music. The most famous of the rock-based ensembles is entitled Zappa Plays Zappa and has the unusual credit of being ‘legally’ sanctified to perform his music live. This legality is no coincidence, as the band is headed by Zappa's eldest son Dweezil and features the 'Vault Master' responsible for compiling the legal recordings heralding from the ZFT - Joe Travers on drums.

MUSIC – Muddy Waters, Rollin’ Stone via Spotify (Play 30secs then turn down) It all started with Muddy Waters. A chance meeting between 2 old friends at Dartford railway station marked the beginning of 50 years of rock and roll. In the early 1950s, Keith Richards and Mick Jagger were childhood friends and classmates at Wentworth Primary School in Kent until their families moved apart.[8] In 1960, the pair met again on their way to college at Dartford railway station. The Chuck Berry and Muddy Waters records that Jagger carried revealed a mutual interest. They began forming a band with Dick Taylor and Brian Jones from Blues Incorporated. This band also contained two other future members of the Rolling Stones: Ian Stewart and Charlie Watts.[11] So how did the name come about? Well according to Richards, Jones christened the band during a phone call to Jazz News.

    TOTO Bio (PDF)

    TOTO Bio Few ensembles in the history of recorded music have individually or collectively had a larger imprint on pop culture than the members of TOTO. As individuals, the band members’ imprint can be heard on an astonishing 5000 albums that together amass a sales history of a HALF A BILLION albums. Amongst these recordings, NARAS applauded the performances with 225 Grammy nominations. Band members were South Park characters, while Family Guy did an entire episode on the band's hit "Africa." As a band, TOTO sold 35 million albums, and today continue to be a worldwide arena draw staging standing room only events across the globe. They are pop culture, and are one of the few 70s bands that have endured the changing trends and styles, and 35 years in to a career enjoy a multi-generational fan base. It is not an exaggeration to estimate that 95% of the world's population has heard a performance by a member of TOTO.
