Description
A lighting desk that fits in your carry-on? The ChamSys MagicQ MQ70 is a compact lighting desk that fits in the overhead locker on Ryanair, EasyJet and most other budget airlines, yet still runs the full MagicQ software with 24 universes directly from the console. Serious functionality in a format that travels to every gig.
Despite its compact size, the MQ70 gives you a full workspace: a 10.1" multi-touch display with illuminated encoders and fader channels, ten dual-color illuminated playbacks and eight attribute encoders for smooth programming. That the console runs completely silently thanks to a fanless design is no afterthought - in theater productions or broadcasting, that's a requirement, not a luxury. The built-in UPS keeps both the console and the internal network switch running through a power outage, and via three network ports you send ArtNet and sACN straight to the venue. MIDI in/out, LTC timecode input and an audio input let you integrate the console seamlessly into more complex show-control setups.

FAQ
Can I load my MQ70 show onto a larger MagicQ console?
Yes. The MQ70 runs the same MagicQ software as the Stadium series. Shows are fully interchangeable between all MagicQ systems, within the universe limit of the target console.
Does the MQ70 work without a network?
Yes. The four physical DMX outputs work fully standalone. Network and WiFi are optional: useful for larger setups or for using the Remote App, but not required.
