Mavis Announces Update to Mavis Studio App
Mavis announced an update to its Mavis Studio live production app for the iPad at InfoComm 2026. The company said that the new features were designed to make professional AV production more portable, connected and accessible.
Mavis Studio brings multi-camera switching, media playback, graphics, audio mixing, recording and streaming into an iPad app. The company said that it aims to give AV teams, systems integrators, venues, educators, houses of worship and content creators a practical alternative to traditional fixed production systems.
Mavis Studio already supports NDI input and output, allowing teams to bring networked cameras and sources into an iPad-based live production environment. Mavis said that the new version builds on this with NDI Preview mode, giving users five minutes of full access to NDI features so they can test camera sources, tally and PTZ control before subscribing.
The company said that this serves to make it easier to confirm network performance, test compatible sources and understand how Mavis Studio fits into an existing production environment. The update also adds PTZ control for supported NDI cameras.
Mavis said that with the new updates, Operators can now pan, tilt, zoom and focus compatible cameras directly inside Mavis Studio via a smarter control wheel that adapts to the selected source. The wheel can switch between PTZ control, media control and 3D layout adjustment depending on the selected source.
The new version also includes support for USB audio interfaces, allowing sers to bring professional audio hardware directly into Mavis Studio, with up to four channels routed into the app’s integrated audio desk. The same interface can also be used for headphone monitoring. It also features new 3D layouts for creative control. The Mavis Studio app is a free download available from the App Store.
“Mavis Studio is about giving people the tools of a professional live production system in a format that is far more portable and accessible,” said Patrick Holroyd, CEO of Mavis. “InfoComm is the right place to show how powerful an iPad-based workflow can be for AV teams. With networked video, camera control, professional audio and flexible layouts all in one app, users can produce polished live content from a single device.”
