Cats are particular about the litter box and some more than others. Make sure the box is absolutely clean. Since you have more than one cat you may want to have more than one litter box. The cat could also have a medical problem you may not be aware of and is avoiding the litter box for that reason. If they experience pain while using a litter box many will associate pain with the box. Make sure the box is in a quiet private place and easily accessible to the cat. You also mentioned you changed litter brand. This could also be a reason. Some cats are just more particular than others when it comes to using a litter box. There are numerous reasons for this.

I know it sounds a lot but there could be all sorts of reasons why he is not using it. Dot them round the house if possible as one thing we found with one of our cats was that she wasnt being allowed to use it by the other 2! So if they are round the house then he is never stuck in a corner needing a wee and then not being able to go. THe other thing is that anywhere he has had a wee or a poo that is outside the litter tray, clean up as much as possible then sprinkle bicarb of soda, leave for a bit and then hoover up, this removes the smell without any harsh chemicals and such and discourages him from using that spot again. Sorry for long winded answer but I sooo know what you are going through here! Sheba jack has already mentioned this, but I would recommend you have a litter tray/box per cat.
