MagicQ MQ250M Stadium combines a high capacity of show control with portability for a complete on-the-go console solution. MQ250M has the ability to control up to 128 universes without any additional processing equipment with the ready-to-go MagicQ software you are already familiar with. 10 backlit and motorised faders and 10 backlit playback encoders with executors give you a lot of programming real estate in the small frame MQ250M is designed in.

MagicQ Stadium Software:
- In addition to its rich feature set of core lighting control, MagicQ Stadium Software has inbuilt audio timeline editor, multi emitter color picker, 3D trackers support and plot
Up to 128 Universes Direct from the console:
- On the MQ250M all universes of DMX are available direct through the network ports on the rear of the console over industry the standard lighting protocols sACN, Art-Net and Pathport, without the need for additional processing nodes this console is real value for money.
- With its inbuilt UPS, the MQ250M is a complete 64/128 universe stand alone all in one lighting control solution.
Motorisation:
- Thanks to its motorised function, the playback section can be used for multiple purposes with shortcut buttons to change the function. With 10 motorised faders and 10 playback encoders per bank, and up to six banks, a total of 202 playbacks can be accessed at the touch of a button.
- In keeping with its versatile design, MagicQ MQ250M supports many different fader modes enabling the playback section to be used in a wide variety of applications.
- The programmer modes give access to intensities for each patched fixture, to intensities of groups of fixtures or to individual channels of a fixture. The selected modes enable instant access to the intensities or channels of the currently selected fixtures.
- The master modes provide instant master control of individual fixtures or groups of fixtures without having to pre-program masters – ideal for those live moments when lights are flaring in cameras or key lights need modifying.
- The dual 100mm crossfade faders together with the prominently placed large GO and BACK buttons provide the ultimate theatre control experience.
Playback Encoders:
- Playback encoders take live operation to new heights. A multi array of different functions can be assigned to the playback encoders with full legending directly above on the display presenting the current function to the user.
- The playback encoders can be set to controlling intensity, LTP channels, FX size, FX speed, rate and time.
- Playback encoders can control cue stacks of their own, or be tied to the fader playback below, or even control a whole bank of playbacks, or a whole page of playbacks.
Illumination & Customization:
- The MQ250M lights the way with backlit keys, illuminated fader tracks and encoders. Together with the new updated graphics this takes MagicQ to a whole new level of customisation giving Lighting Designers freedom to visibly configure the console for their needs.
- Each playback fader track & playback encoder top has full RGB illumination enabling its function to be clearly indicated. Users can select standard functions or customise each Cue Stack individually – for example to separate the main cues from bump cues.
Compatibility:
- The MagicQ MQ250M is built on the proven reliable stadium software which has excelled on shows with thousands of fixtures.
- Show files are fully compatible between MQ500M, Stadium Connect and all other ChamSys consoles making it easy to move between consoles.
- Unique to ChamSys, show files are both forwards and backwards compatible so no need to worry about software versions.
