As the description says on Banff's website, the 200-seat hall is in the Music and Sound building and overlooks Mount Rundle in the rear windows. That is, when the curtains aren't shut. Recording is done through 4 panels in the space which tie to the control room's patch bay. In the control room, located stage left, is a Studer board, Grace and Millennia pres, and Meitner converters into a Pyramix rig.
The hall holds mostly classical concerts, since the space is very reverberant. Personally I think it's a warm/dark reverberant sound that can make recording a little tricky, and changes more than usual with audience.
