AML Stage Lighting Manufacturer Co., Ltd. (AML Lighting) officially announces its support for the internationally recognized GDTF (General Device Type Format) standard, further strengthening compatibility between AML fixtures and the global professional lighting ecosystem.

This milestone reflects AML Lighting’s long-term commitment to open integration, intelligent workflows, and internationally standardized lighting control environments for concerts, touring productions, festivals, TV productions, theaters, and large-scale outdoor events.

As live entertainment production continues evolving toward digital workflows, previsualization, and cross-platform programming, accurate fixture data and unified compatibility have become increasingly important. Through GDTF integration, AML Lighting fixtures can now work more efficiently with major lighting consoles, visualization software, and production systems used worldwide.

Lighting designers, programmers, rental companies, production teams, and system integrators can now benefit from faster setup, more accurate programming, and smoother interoperability across modern lighting workflows.

What is GDTF?

GDTF (General Device Type Format) is an open-source and universal fixture profile standard jointly developed by MA Lighting, Vectorworks, and Robe Lighting.

The standard allows lighting manufacturers to build a single unified fixture profile compatible across multiple software platforms and lighting systems, significantly improving fixture consistency while reducing duplicated profile development.

Today, GDTF is widely adopted throughout the professional entertainment technology industry, including:

• Lighting Consoles

• Visualization Software

• CAD Platforms

• Show Preprogramming Systems

• Touring & Event Production Workflows
