MagicQ MQ100 Pro 2014 provides an immensely powerful control console – 64 universes direct via ArtNet, ACN or Pathport.  All 64 universes are processed onboard – no extra processing nodes required.  32768 channels in a compact package, proven to run at full speed with all channels fully patched, there really is no similarly packaged console that can sustain this performance.

MagicQ software features easy patching from a library of 9000 fixture personalities, simple attribute selection and programming, flexible live lighting control including a powerful inbuilt Pixel Mapper.

MagicQ MQ100 Pro 2014 can be connected via network to a PC or Mac running ChamSys free MagicVis lighting visualisation software for full visualisation of all 64 universes at no extra cost.

MagicQ MQ100 Pro 2014 can be connected via network to a PC or Mac running ChamSys free MagicHD media player software for output of up to 8 layers of HD media at no extra cost.

MagicQ Pro 2014 features an in-built high speed Ethernet switch, with 4 separate high durability metal Neutrik Ethercon locking connectors on the rear panel enabling easy and reliable networking. As with the rest of the MagicQ console, the Ethernet switch is protected by the UPS, thus ensuring that both the console and the network switch maintain operation even during power loss.

MagicQ Pro 2014 supports MIDI in and out, LTC in and out and Audio input on the rear panel.

The MagicQ MQ500 Stadium is designed to operate at the highest level of show control, supporting up to 200 universes direct from the console without the need for external processing. MagicQ MQ500 Stadium is designed for high performance and complex shows. Its features allow shows to be designed from concept to reality, including lighting, media, and LEDs.

MQ500 Stadium features dual HD resolution multi touch 15” displays with adjustable viewing angle and multi touch gesture support. It has the largest number of playbacks in the ChamSys family, with 42 playbacks made up of both fader and executor playbacks for live busking. This includes 15 full faders, 15 executable playbacks, and a dedicated section of 12 multipurpose Macro/Execute/Playbacks/Palette keys. For additional control connect a MagicQ Stadium Wing and get even more playbacks and another touchscreen display as well.

The MQ500 Stadium has inbuilt MagicVis 3D visualiser with high quality beam and gobo rendering. This means you can preprogram a new song or create new effects offline, and save time onsite.

The MQ500 Stadium has 4 built-in DMX ports and inbuilt 4 port ethernet switch.

This versatile console also includes an intensity wheel and 100mm split crossfaders for theatre control.

Based on ETC’s award-winning Eos® control system but with a simplified feature set, Element™ is designed expressly for modest rigs and maximum hands-on fader control. Affordable and easy to use, Element packs in the fundamentals of lighting control.

Element comes in two hardware versions, based on fader count, to suit your rig. Each supports either 250 or 500 channels and two full universes of DMX output:

• Element 40 – 250 Channels
• Element 40 – 500 Channels
• Element 60 – 250 Channels
• Element 60 – 500 Channels

Supporting two external, Windows® 7-compatible high-resolution monitors (standard, single- or multi-touch), programming could not be any more straightforward and easy.

The most popular lighting control console in history – that’s ETC’s Express.
