ChamSys QuickQ 20 B-Stock

Users can prepare their show on the ChamSys QuickQ 20's 9.7" touchscreen, just like they would do using a smartphone app. The QuickQ 20 provides assistance by automatically detecting RDM-compatible spotlights, patching and configuring them at the same time, and the beginner-friendly tips in the manual will smooth out those first steps. Individual fixtures, groups, or cues can be triggered with 20 multifunction faders, while ten multi-cue playback faders below the display give direct access to individual scenes, to cue stacks that can be cycled through manually, and to music-synched chasers. Thanks to the integrated Wi-Fi, this 5.2kg lightweight console can be operated with a tablet or smartphone, and also features five-pin DMX input and output ports, MIDI in and out, HDMI, and two USB ports for saving shows and importing sounds. The network connection in turn supports the sACN, ArtNet, and Pathport protocols.

The British company ChamSys specialises in developing lighting controls and has always placed emphasis on the development of state-of-the-art, software-based control tools since its launch in 2003. The company constantly prioritises the user-friendliness of its lighting consoles and fader wings, whether accessed via the console's built-in touchscreen, an iPad, or a Windows computer, allowing both beginners and professionals to create sophisticated lighting designs. ChamSys uses high-quality components such as Alps faders, HPRG encoders, and Neutrik jacks to ensure a sustainable long service life.
