The console has been designed to be as flexible as possible so that it can be used equally well for pre-

programmed shows / tours or for busking festivals. Significant attention has been given to ensuring that all

key parameters can be changed during run – for example it is possible to change any FX parameter at the

touch of a button.

Ease of use and speed of programming have been at the forefront of the design process ensuring that the

lighting designer can patch and program a show in the minimum amount of time without complex button

sequences and multi level menus.

The first few chapters of this guide describe an overview of the console and how scenes, chases, fx and

environments work. If you wish to dive straight into programming a show then turn to the Quick Start

section.

1.1 Which console model?

The MagicQ lighting console is available in several different models all utilising the powerful MagicQ

operating environment. The MagicQ operating environment provides an easy to use operating

environment for both programming and playback of shows. A show can be programmed on one model

and then played back on a different model.

The MagicQ operating environment supports 202 playbacks in total – which can be all be accessed

either through physical playbacks or through the touch screen. The different models in the MagicQ

have different numbers of physical playbacks and buttons, which enables the size of console to be

matched to the show.

The fully featured MagicQ PC enables shows to be pre-programmed on a PC (Windows, Mac or Linux)

thus enabling Lighting Designers to design and program their shows in advance. Transfer of show data
