Studio 1 was the home of the CBC Radio Orchestra for decades and today is a favourite location for CBC/Radio-Canada broadcasts and concerts.
With a beautifully smooth reverberant characteristic, capacity for an audience and performers of up to 160 people, the room is widely acknowledged as one of - if not the best - studio sound stages north of Hollywood and west of Toronto.
Ideal for orchestral and choral recordings, the room recently accommodated an 88 piece orchestra. An excellent compliment of percussion instruments, a top tier Steinway Model D 9" piano, and an extraordinary microphone selection position Studio 1 at the top of the class.
The Studio 1 Control Room was recently fully refurbished. The centrepiece is a brand new Euphonix System 5 audio console with 48 physical faders and a fully redundant dual core system. A wide assortment of outboard processing and Genelec 5.1 monitoring complete the package.
