Blue Pro Mastering is an independent mastering facility based at Miloco's Hornsey premises in North London. Blue Pro was founded by Alexander Balfour in 2001 and offers audio mastering in addition to both CD & DVD Duplication & Replication services.

Blue Pro Mastering deliver the highest possible standards in Audio CD mastering using only the best audio path and equipment available, operated by very experienced engineers, all at affordable rates that deliver true value for both independent musicians and major labels alike.

The facility is fundamentally built around the MTC-2 Mastering Console from Maselec. Built by legendary producer Leif Mases (Black Sabbath, Jeff Beck, Europe, Led Zeppelin and Abba) the MTC-2 is undoubtedly the perfect centre-piece to a world class mastering facility. More than just a traditional console for monitoring and routing the console has some unique sonic benefits of it's own, such as it's elliptical filter which controls low end stereo signals and can move them towards the centre of the image, cutting troublesome 'out-of-phase' issues without altering the mono sound. The unique mono-compatible stereo width adjustment is also a very powerful and useful tool.

The Blue Pro line up of gear also includes many other options from Maselec such as the now classic MEA-2 Equaliser, MLA-2 Compressor and a more recent addition, the MPL-2 De-Esser and Brickwall Limiter. For clean processing Maselec is untouched and together with choice Prism converters Blue Pro deliver an exceptional low noise audio path. When colour and warmth is required there is also an exceptional choice of analogue compression and equalisation from the likes of Manley, EMI Chandler Abbey Road and Tube-Tech.

We offer both attended sessions at the studio (billed hourly) or online mastering (billed per track). Our resident engineer is John Webber. Previous clients include Universal Island, EMI, Echo Chrysalis, SonyBMG, V2, Genetic Records, Heavenly Recordings, Candid Records, Warner Music & World Music Network,
