MagicDMX

MagicDMX is a low cost, single universe USB DMX interface created by ChamSys which contains an on board processor to process the DMX packets. Because all timing is done by the interface rather than relying on the host operating system, this ensures that the DMX timing is correct and consistent.  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 optical isolation should consider the MagicQ Twin DMX Interface, the SnakeSys 4 Universe Ethernet Interface or any of the MagicQ Wing products which all have full optical isolation.

MagicDMX Basic

The MagicDMX Basic interface is aimed at users wishing to evaluate and learn MagicQ, technicians wishing to test fixtures, as well as students wishing to learn lighting in schools and colleges. MagicDMX Basic supports output of a full DMX universe via a 3 pin female XLR connector.

MagicDMX Basic is time limited to 5 hours continuous usage. After this time it is necessary to replug the device and to restart the MagicQ software.
