MagicQ Software Change Log

115 / 121

Chapter 75

Version 1.5.0.0

75.1

New Functions

75.1.1

32 Universes

The software now supports 32 Universes on MagicQ Pro 2010 consoles. MagicQ Pro consoles and MagicQ Rack Mount Network
Consoles continue to support 18 universes.

MagicQ software on Windows, Mac and Linux also supports 32 Universes. This ensures that shows designed for use on Pro 2010
consoles can be programmed offline and also as a backup in case of a problem with the console.

75.1.2

iPhone /iPad app version 2

Added support for version 2 iPhone / iPad app. The version 2 app enables the encoder wheels to control any parameters on
MagicQ instead of just pan and tilt. In addition it is now possible to view the MagicQ windows including the Patch and the
Outputs from the app.

The version 2 app now includes views specifically designed for the resolution of the iPad the app will automatically detect which
product it is running on and adapt the views.

75.1.3

Personalities and Real World Values

MagicQ has been modified so that it is possible to display the attributes in real world values rather than in 0 to 255 DMX values.
For example pan and tilt can be shown in degrees.

The personalities have been renamed so that all the personalities now use the format manufacturer_name_mode.hed.

It is possible to remove all old personalities (and all user created personalities) by pressing SHIFT and REMOVE HEADS in the
File Manager. This removes all old heads and extracts the heads again from heads.all. Make sure all your user created heads are
backed up to USB or to another system before removing all old personalities.

The Personalities in the ChamSys library are now protected to avoid accidental changes to them MagicQ prompts the user before
allowing changes to the personalities. In the Head Editor, original ChamSys personalities are indicated by an LO in the tile bar.
If the personality has been edited it will only show L.

75.2

Fixes

Fixed problem with Pixelmapping on moving heads with CMY colour mixing rather than RGB colour mixing - the colours were
inverted. Now it is possible to have both CMY and RGB fixtures in a grid and the colour will be mapped as expected. (#0000968,
#0001193).
