Miloco add The Great Escape Studio

Posted on May 27, 2015 by Georgie Koch

The Great Escape Studio can now be booked through Miloco.

The programming and writing studio, part of Shoreditch complex The Premises, was designed by writer/producer/engineer Alex ‘Cores’ Hayes, and has a naturally-lit control room and a vocal booth equipped with remote DAW control. You can kick everyone out of the control room and use the screen and keyboard to operate the DAW yourself!

Some of the gear highlights include the much sought-after Sony C800G microphone, a Neve 1073DPA, a UA 1176LN and a Lavry Blue AD/DA converter. A 36-fader Avid control surface provides control over the Pro Tools HD 10/11 and Logic Pro 9/X DAWs. These are complemented by a great selection of FX and instrument plugins.

Guitar course introduced at Lake Malvik

Posted on May 22, 2015 by Georgie Koch

Miloco have partnered with Music Retreats to launch the Guitar Improvers programme at our Lake Malvik residential writing and recording facility in Sweden.

About the location

Lake Malvik is located in the village of Runemo in idyllic northern Sweden. Nestled in the tranquil pine forests, the studio has been built in a large detached farmhouse featuring three luxurious guest bedrooms that provide the accommodation for Malvik’s visitors.

Only two hours from Stockholm, Runemo is home to everything that characterises Sweden – mountains, sea, archipelagos, lakes, rivers, forests and wilderness, with its own distinct character and picturesque countryside.

 See other studio photographs here

The studio comprises of a huge naturally lit control room, live room plus some rather unique recording spaces across its three floors. A vast array of equipment and instruments from the usual to the not so usual are also at hand. Everything about Lake Malvik was conceived with the inspiration of the writing process in mind.

Ideas will never be short in this wonderful creative space.

Two big ribbons for Livingston

Posted on May 20, 2015 by Georgie Koch

Two beautiful AEA R84 ribbon microphones are the newest additions at Livingston Studio 1, a north London recording studio. Come and check them out!

The R84 is a passive ribbon microphone that shares many of the unique sound characteristics with its historic predecessor, the R44. The R84 produces rich and full low-mids, a smooth top end, and has a well-behaved bidirectional pickup pattern. These aspects, combined with the reduced proximity effect, make the R84 incredibly well-suited for both close-up and ambient mic applications in medium sized rooms. It’s just as versatile as an R44, flattering voice, strings, brass and drums alike.

Livingston Studio 1, one of the best tracking studios in London, is now available for commercial sessions.

The change in equipment comes as the facility’s longtime resident producer moves stateside. Look at all the new equipment here.
