Cherry Beach Sound, Recording studio in Port Lands, Toronto, Canada
Cherry Beach Sound is a recording studio housed in a restored industrial building in Toronto's Port Lands neighborhood. The facility features two control rooms and provides audio post-production services for television, radio, and film commercials in stereo and surround sound formats.
The studio opened in 1982 inside a former munitions factory building constructed in 1911. The original structure was designed with high ceilings as a safety measure to reduce explosion risks in the factory.
The studio has been a working space for many renowned musicians and performers who come from around the world to record their projects here. Its presence in the city has drawn international artists seeking professional audio production.
The studio is located roughly 10 minutes from downtown Toronto and is accessible by standard public transit. Since it operates as an active production space, it is best to arrange a visit in advance rather than arriving unannounced.
In 2006, an unexpected accident occurred when a tour bus crashed through the building wall, penetrating several meters into the structure. This incident remains a notable part of the location's history and is often mentioned by staff and visitors.
