LED & Pixel Mapping
MagicQ utilises a powerful Cue engine, which enables it to easily handle large numbers of LED heads in the form of panels,
battens and moving lights. MagicQ’s ability to handle large numbers of heads independently ensures that Lighting Designers get
to make the most of their LED arrays without being limited by the console. With MagicQ you can generate complete rainbow
washes across all LED fixtures at the touch of a button with immediate live control during playback through encoders and buttons.
MagicQ includes a powerful Pixel Mapper designed for use with arrays of LED fixtures. You can design a grid structure based
on the layout of the fixtures on the stage and then play back movies, bitmaps and text messages on that grid. The grid can have
spaces in it allowing the fixtures to be spread over the grid as they appear on the stage.
MagicQ enables LED fixtures to be used in their "high resolution" mode enabling individual control of each LED pixel rather
than the restricted modes where Lighting Designers are reliant on the same old in built effects that everyone has seen many times.
