On the recent "Pray For The Wicked Tour" he used the new Shure KSM8 in a customized gold finish as you can tell by the grill and the retro Shure logo

Seen using a KSM8 for a live performance in Australia.

In this YouTube video of Rihanna's live performance you can clearly see at 3:50 she is using the Shure transmitter with the distinct ksm8 capsule.

Mariah Carey currently uses this microphone in her live performances.

The AXT200/K8B is featured in this March 9, 2016 Shure press release.

FOH engineer Gordon Mack became a huge fan of the KSM8 for its versatility across a wide range of material. "The KSM8 is a very full-throated mic,” he says. “It captures all the warmth and depth of Jennifer's vocal without losing the crispness of a lightly sung lyric, all the while maintaining its composure as she struts in front of the PA. The only feedback I’ve had isn’t from the mic – it’s from people talking about the mic!”

Monitor engineer Anne-Lise Coulet had a similar reaction. “The KSM8 capsule is a life-changer in monitor world, especially for in-ears,” she says. “When Jennifer is moving between the PA, side fills, and the live band, and the audience starts screaming, the KSM8 gives me the clarity and control I need so that her vocal easily cuts through it all without bleeding.”

Coulet is also in charge of the show’s wireless systems, running 24 channels of RF networked together through Shure’s Wireless Workbench® software and Axient Spectrum Manager for real-time monitoring of every channel. The production uses ten microphone channels (Axient AXT200/K8B for JLo, Shure UHF-R® for the rest of the stage) and 14 PSM® 1000 in-ear systems.

During the initial ten-show run at Planet Hollywood, the audio team came away extremely impressed with Axient’s powerful features. The production also uses the Shure Axient AXT610 ShowLink™ access point to enable the system’s unique frequency diversity capability with full remote transmitter control, ensuring that Lopez’s vocal will never be marred by interference or dropouts.

“The Axient system does things that no other wireless system can,” notes Coulet. “At one point during the show, Jennifer sings on top of a metal tower that is raised by an industrial electric motor – literally making the entire tower a giant antenna! The wireless we were using before couldn’t handle it, but it was no problem for Axient. The frequency diversity is also very reassuring, though thankfully, we haven’t had to use it during a show yet!”

Another interesting aspect of the show is that Lopez had her AXT200 transmitters customized with crystals to match her costumes. This necessitated some input from Shure.

“First, we needed to make sure the designer was aware of the Axient battery design, so that the bling didn’t interfere with battery removal,” says Nelson Arreguín. “In addition, we provided a modified AXT902 charging station with wider openings to accommodate recharging the lithium-ion battery packs.”

During a performance on November 22, 2017, at the Velodrom Berlin, Anders Fridén of In Flames was seen using a Shure KSM8 Dualdyne Wireless microphone, as reported by Schwarzepresse.

Featured in this June 5, 2016 Shure interview with Mvula's FOH engineer, Cliff Brothers.

Over the past few years, I've used several industry standard microphones with Laura Mvula, always coming back to the trusty Beta58. The main reason for this comes down to how the artist behaves, and how comfortable they are with said microphone during their performance. Again, it's a sort of 'tried and trusted' thing.

That being said, it's always important to try new things, and when I was given the chance to test out the KSM8, I was immediately intrigued. It was a no-brainer to try it with Laura, and she is always keen to try something new as we've worked together for many years. She knows where I'm coming from, and we often mutually decide to change things up a bit.

I noticed her using the KSM8 microphone in a very musical way; it gives her an extra edge, it enables a very solid vocal performance. This new element unquestionably enhanced an already detailed vocal construction; we were so confident in the characteristics and build of the microphone that I had no qualms in using it for Laura's Graham Norton Show performance.

In terms of sonic characteristics, I feel the KSM8 is very similar to using a Beta58, only easier; it has a similar feel but with fewer lumps and bumps that you might normally expect from a cardioid dynamic microphone. The amazing thing is the proximity effect; Laura often sings off and on the mic in quick succession. The KSM8 has helped smooth out her performance, and the transition, importantly, was almost seamless.

The KSM8 also has a very flat response. I was able, therefore, to run a flat EQ with a little high-pass rolled in — using the EQ in a musical way rather than as a 'trouble-shooting' tool.

As can be seen in this July 7, 2016 Wikimedia Commons photo from Mvula's Global Citizen performance at The View from The Shard, her KSM8 is wireless and in the black finish.
