Chamsys MagicQ Compact Connect USB Control Surface
Experience hands-on control of lighting, media and LEDs with the ChamSys MagicQ Compact Connect USB Control Surface. This compact unit features 10 playback faders, two direct DMX outputs and 64 ArtNet/sACN universes, making it suitable for touring or installed setups. The lightweight design connects via USB to MagicQ software on Windows, macOS or Linux.
ChamSys MagicQ Compact Connect brings hands-on control to lighting, media, and LED work without taking over your setup. Its lightweight USB design pairs with MagicQ software on Windows, macOS, or Linux, while direct DMX, network output, and tactile playback controls keep key show functions close at hand.
Ten playback faders give you a direct way to run live show elements, with Flash, Go, and Select buttons for quick access during operation. A dedicated Grand Master and Crossfader add overall level control, while eight rotary encoders provide illuminated access to fixture parameters when you need focused adjustments.
Two 5-pin XLR DMX outputs support RDM for direct connection to lighting equipment. The network port can transmit up to 64 universes of ArtNet and sACN, with no extra licenses or dongles required for that stated capacity. This gives touring productions and installed venues a practical path from software programming to show output.
An internal USB hub adds four USB-A outputs alongside the USB-C input. The surface also includes a 3.5 mm line input, MIDI input and output, a 10Scene input, and a working light socket, giving operators useful connection points for control and operation around theatres, schools, clubs, studios, and other venues. At 522 x 230 x 65 mm and 3.65 kg, the black surface is compact enough for touring and compliant with hand luggage restrictions. Plug-in power is included, with an AC input range of 110 to 240 VAC at 50 / 60 Hz. A Kensington Security Lock is also provided for added physical security in fixed installations.
