MagicDMX is a low cost, single universe USB DMX interface created by ChamSys which contains an on board processor to process the DMX packets. MagicDMX connects to MagicQ running under Windows, Mac or Linux.
It doesn’t use any special drivers for the device, so you can just plug and play. MagicDMX defaults to outputing on Universe 1 from the MagicQ software but can be used on any universe.
MagicDMX has electrical protection for normal usage. Users requiring full isolation should consider the MagicQ Twin DMX Interface, the SnakeSys B4 or any of the MagicQ Wing products.
The MagicDMX interfaces do not unlock the restricted features of MagicQ software such as remote control via iOS/Android, audio input and full screen execute window or the « demo mode banner ». Users requring these features will need a ChamSys interface such as Twin DMX Interface, Mini Wing, PC Wing Compact or SnakeSys interface.
