Shure Buys Crowley & Tripp Ribbon Microphones
Looking to leap into the ribbon microphone market segment, Shure has acquired Crowley and Tripp Ribbon Microphones from Soundwave Research Laboratories of Ashland, Massachusetts.
Under a definitive agreement, Shure now owns all intellectual property, microphone process equipment, product designs, and other important assets related to the Crowley and Tripp line. Shure will manufacture ribbon microphones in its Wheeling, Illinois, facility using the patented Roswellite shape-memory acoustic ribbon material developed by Soundwave Research.
