Supported Devices

Fabl controls your studio gear through a Studio Agent running in your facility. The agent connects to each device over your local network and carries out the commands produced by rules and live studio mode cues. It also reports each device’s state back to Fabl in real time, and some devices raise triggers that rules can react to. Every device type below can be added and driven today. Where a device name links to a page, that page documents its commands, state, and triggers in detail.
