Greenhouse Studios

Greenhouse Studios is a music recording facility founded by Bruce Levens in 1987. The facility has recorded over 1000 albums during the last 25 years. The studio was incorporated as Lions Gate Studios, subsequently changing its name to Vancouver Studios before finally settling on the Greenhouse Studios name.

The operation started as a 1 room studio in half of an industrial building. A steady stream of clients attracted by the equipment, facilities, location and mostly the people allowed Greenhouse Studios to grow. The original MCI console was replaced by an SSL G series which brought in even bigger projects. A smaller studio was built to handle overdubs and budget conscious artists. When the building next door became available it was incorporated into the operation, Studio 1 would become a stand alone studio complete with large live and control rooms, separate machine room, bathroom, kitchen and lounge facilities. 2 Edit suites were added to handle the post production work the facility was doing. A penthouse studio and warehouse studio were also created in the 90s.
