LDI: ChamSys debuts MagicQ MQ70
- Details
The MagicQ MQ70 supports 24 universes of ArtNet/sACN natively, with an option to expand this to 48 universes directly from the console (with a paid upgrade). The console features a 10.1” multi touch display, along with illuminated fader and encoder tracks.
The MagicQ MQ70 also has built-in WiFi, making it easy to connect to the ChamSys MagicQ Remote focus application simply by scanning the QR code on screen without the need for external networking hardware. MIDI input and output as well as LTC timecode input are also inbuilt, allowing easy integration with show control and timecoded shows.
An in-built UPS protects the MagicQ MQ70 in the event of a power failure. Due to its low power consumption, the console requires no cooling fan, which means it operates silently - a critical feature for broadcast, theatrical and corporate show applications. Since the MagicQ MQ70 runs the same MagicQ software as other consoles from the range, it accepts shows programmed on any of them, within the universe limits.
