Chamsys MagicQ Compact Wing Description

The Chamsys MagicQ Compact Wing is designed for lighting professionals who want more physical playbacks without stepping up to a larger console. Its 10 fader playbacks and 10 executor playbacks provide direct access to cues, cue stacks, and show control functions, helping operators work faster in live environments where tactile access matters.

Each playback section is designed for practical show operation. In the fader section, every playback includes Flash, Go, and Pause buttons, while the executor section provides Select and Flash buttons for each playback. Both sections can independently page through multiple playback pages, giving users flexible access to a larger number of programmed functions from a compact surface.

A large full-colour touchscreen display enables fully electronic playback legending, making it easier to identify and organize assignments during programming and playback. Illuminated fader tracks improve visibility in dark production environments, while the balanced and portable form factor makes the wing suitable for both fixed installation and mobile use.

For connectivity and expansion, the unit features 1 USB-C input and 2 USB-A outputs, allowing connection to supported MagicQ systems and additional wings. It supports use with MQ50, M70, MQ80, MQ250M, MQ500, MQ500M, and MQ500M+ consoles, and also connects to MagicQ PC or MacOS systems. A dimmable dual-colour working light port and locking Neutrik PowerCon True1 power connection round out a design focused on reliable professional operation.
