MagicQ MQ500M Stadium offers the highest level of show control, supporting 256 universes directly from the console without need for external processors. RGB illuminated, fully motorised faders and encoders provide 42 playbacks, along with backlit keys for upgraded programming. Connect MagicQ MQ500M Wing for even greater control.
On the MQ500M all 256 universes of DMX are available direct through the network ports on the rear of the console over industry the standard lighting protocols sACN, ArtNet and Pathport, without the need for additional processing nodes this console is real value for money.
With its inbuilt UPS, the MQ500M is a complete 256 universe stand alone all in one lighting control solution.
Thanks to its motorised function, the playback section can be used for multiple purposes with shortcut buttons to change the function. With 15 motorised faders and 15 playback encoders per bank, and up to six banks, a total of 180 playbacks can be accessed at the touch of a button.
In keeping with its versatile design, MagicQ MQ500M supports many different fader modes enabling the playback section to be used in a wide variety of applications.
The programmer modes give access to intensities for each patched fixture, to intensities of groups of fixtures or to individual channels of a fixture. The selected modes enable instant access to the intensities or channels of the currently selected fixtures.
The master modes provide instant master control of individual fixtures or groups of fixtures without having to pre-program masters - ideal for those live moments when lights are flaring in cameras or key lights need modifying.
The dual 100mm crossfade faders are fully motorised and together with the prominently placed large GO and BACK buttons provide the ultimate theatre control experience.
Playback encoders take live operation to new heights. A multi array of different functions can be assigned to the playback encoders with full legending directly above on the display presenting the current function to the user.
The playback encoders can be set to controlling intensity, LTP channels, FX size, FX speed, rate and time.
Playback encoders can control cue stacks of their own, or be tied to the fader playback below, or even control a whole bank of playbacks, or a whole page of playbacks.
The MQ500M lights the way with backlit keys, illuminated fader tracks and encoders, and glowing pockets. Together with the new updated graphics this takes MagicQ to a whole new level of customisation giving Lighting Designers freedom to visibly configure the console for their needs.
Each playback fader track & playback encoder top has full RGB illumination enabling its function to be clearly indicated. Users can select standard functions or customise each Cue Stack individually - for example to separate the main cues from bump cues.
The MagicQ MQ500M is built on the proven reliable MQ500 software which has excelled on 200 universe shows with thousands of fixtures.
Show files are fully compatible between MQ500M, MQ500 and all other ChamSys consoles making it easy to move between consoles.
Unique to ChamSys, show files are both forwards and backwards compatible so no need to worry about software versions.
Rugged and ergonomically designed the MQ500M has two inbuilt full HD multi-touch displays with adjustable viewing angles.
The feature-rich MagicQ MQ500M Stadium Wing adds a third full HD multi touch display and doubles the number of fader and encoder playbacks.
Up to five additional touch monitors can be connected to the system via network using the simple Multi-Window PC application giving a total of 8 monitors for displaying information.
Up to 48 different layouts of windows can be programmed enabling switching views over all 8 monitors at the touch of button. Specific windows can be assigned to particular monitors using the powerful Layouts masking.
A typical layout would include the most interacted windows - Palettes, Plot, Execute, Colour Picker on the internal monitors with Outputs, Programmer and Cue Stack on the external monitors.
