| AEA R88 Microphone review by Oli Wright |
 |
The AEA R88 mic is just one of many fantastic features which contribute to
Miloco 8 - The Pool's vast collection of vinatage analogue gear. Over the past year,
the R88 has caught the eyes and ears of studio assistant Oli Wright, who has
been suitably impressed by the "huge" sounds this unique microphone can
produce. Click below to read Oli's profile on the R88.

| ARP 2600 Synth review by Dean Curtis |
 |
We have a formidable collection of analogue synthesisers spread about our numerous
studios. Our staff aren't bad either, so they'll no doubt be happy to discuss
what it is about these many classic models which has enabled them to stand the test of time
and still be regarded as some of the coolest and most popular pieces of gear found in a
recording studio. Studio assitant Dean Curtis has picked out the ARP 2600 as his chosen subject...

| Altec 436C Compressor review by Joe Hirst |
 |
This 1960s Altec compressor is the oldest piece of outboard at Miloco 3 - The Square. It is often
compared, in terms of quality and effect, to Fairchild models, although as Interface engineer
Joe Hirst will claim, "really has its own thing going on".

 |
A firm favourite amongst musicians and engineers for a few decades, the 19A19 Valve Microphone
is one of the most popular LOMO have produced. It is also rare, adding to the general intrigue
that it generates. One of the microphone's many admirers happens to be Interface engineer Martin Jenkins,
who has a few thoughts and useful tips to share.
