About Magic
Full HD Multi Touch Displays
Processing Nodes
MagicQ Stadium consoles output all their universes directly from the console
- no need for external processing nodes. When modern phones and tablets are capable of streaming HD movies, is it really believable that lighting consoles are limited to calculating only 8 or 16 universes on board?

Q
CompatibilityEliminating
ChamSys believes that it is important for Lighting
MagicQ Stadium consoles feature dual full HD resolution multi-touch displays with 8 encoder wheels around them - this provides simple attribute and palette selection
The displays provide all the information you need right in front of you without having to continually scroll around to find what you need.
ChamSys doesn’t try to sell you expensive network processing nodes. The console is complete, fully functional, outputs all universes - one item, one price.
We test our consoles with every channel patched and executing cues to prove that the consoles are more than capable of meeting their specified performance.
Designers to be able to move between different MagicQ consoles and different MagicQ software versions without having complicated import and export procedures.
Nobody likes having to re-program their show just to meet a particular product version or software version.
With Magic show, any Magic software version. And don’t forget ­you can run Magic PC, your Mac (native), or even on Linux.
