ChamSys MagicQ MQ250M Stadium Description

The ChamSys MagicQ MQ250M Stadium is engineered for high-level lighting designers who demand intuitive access to massive control capabilities in a compact, tour-ready form. With direct output of 64 universes (and expansion to 128), this console removes the need for external nodes or processors, supporting sACN, Art-Net, and Pathport protocols natively. Ten motorized fader playbacks and ten illuminated encoder playbacks offer a highly customizable surface, with up to 202 accessible playbacks across six banks. RGB feedback lighting and touchscreen labeling above the encoders enable rapid identification of functions during complex live shows. The dedicated programmer, master, and playback modes support live editing, group intensity control, channel tweaking, and more—all accessible on the fly. A 15” HD multi-touch display and an additional 5” attribute/encoder touchscreen allow for efficient navigation of MagicQ software features, including MagicVis visualizer, MagicHD media playback, pixel mapping, and the built-in audio timeline editor. The console also features dual 100mm crossfade faders, 8 attribute encoders, MIDI and LTC I/O, 4 DMX outputs, and 4 network ports for advanced connectivity. A built-in UPS ensures show continuity during power interruptions.
