ChamSys MagicQ Stadium Connect Description
The
MagicQ Stadium Connect delivers flagship performance in a portable programming solution, offering hands-on control with 20 total playbacks (10 motorized faders + 10 encoders). With a layout matching the MQ250M and MQ500M consoles, it's an ideal companion for programming shows off-site or running live productions with a PC or Mac.
The console features backlit keys, RGB-illuminated encoder rings and fader tracks, and dual 100mm manual crossfaders—perfect for theater-style cue control. The playback encoders can be assigned to control intensity, FX speed, size, rate, or cue stacks, making them incredibly versatile for live busking or cue-based shows.
Motorized fader banks offer six playback pages, giving access to up to 202 programmable playbacks. It also supports master fader modes, fixture intensities, and channel-level controls for real-time adjustments without pre-programming.
With 4 onboard DMX outputs, MIDI in/out, LTC timecode ports, and audio input for sound-to-light control, the Stadium Connect bridges physical control and software flexibility, all while remaining compatible with the broader MagicQ system family.
