Scenes
Scenes organize complete, independent configurations for different workflows and environments.
Complete configurations
Switch your whole setup at once.
Different tasks may require different interfaces, panels, items, and connection settings. A scene keeps everything required for one workflow together. You can prepare separate scenes for OBS Studio, Logic Pro, camera control, mixing, lighting, or any other environment you operate.
Scenes are independent from one another. Only one scene is active at a time. Its interfaces are the ones currently available, and its panel items access only those interfaces.
Separate workflowsKeep unrelated controls and connections in independent configurations.
Change environmentsStore different addresses, ports, and other connection settings for each location.

What belongs to a scene
All parts of a workflow stay together.
Panels and items
The control surfaces and controls prepared for this workflow.

When separate scenes are useful.
Use one scene for OBS Studio and another for Logic Pro or a Grass Valley camera system.
Keep separate interface settings when the same equipment uses different networks or addresses.
Separate operation, setup, monitoring, and troubleshooting into focused configurations.
Import and export
Reuse and share complete scenes.
Scenes can be exported and imported. This lets you back up a configuration, move it to another device, share it with other users, or use an existing scene as the starting point for a new workflow.
Create one clear purpose per scene.
A focused scene is easier to understand, maintain, and operate than a configuration that tries to cover unrelated workflows.
Getting started
Build a scene for one workflow.
1
Define the purpose
Choose the workflow or environment this scene should support.
2
Add interfaces
Configure the required devices, applications, and connection settings.
3
Create panels
Add the control surfaces and items needed for the workflow.
4
Test the scene
Activate it and verify its connections, commands, events, and controls.
