Chamsys Rack Mount Dongle / MagicHD Dongle

Chamsys Rack Mount Dongle / MagicHD Dongle

The MagicQ Rack Mount Dongle serves as a compact USB device designed to liberate MagicQ PC systems from 'demo mode', granting access to restricted functions. It plays a pivotal role akin to that of a MagicQ Wing or MagicQ USB Interface, albeit in a more space-efficient form factor suitable for installations. Moreover, the Rack Mount Dongle doubles up its utility by unlocking all 8 layers of MagicHD standalone, a necessity when MagicHD operates independently of a ChamSys console. While priced equivalently to the MagicQ Dual DMX Interface, the Rack Mount Dongle distinguishes itself with its compact design, fitting seamlessly into rack-mounted computers. However, customers may opt for the Dual DMX Interface for its dual output ports, providing a potentially more cost-effective solution depending on their specific requirements.

In addition to its primary function of unlocking MagicQ PC Systems, the Rack Mount Dongle facilitates the utilization of third-party and virtual MIDI interfaces for MIDI note input into MagicQ—a feature not supported by other ChamSys PC hardware such as the PC Wing, Mini Wing, or Dual DMX. For comprehensive information on the restricted functions of MagicQ PC and the capabilities unlocked by the Rack Mount Dongle, refer to the provided documentation. It's important to note that triggering of Playbacks via USB MIDI is limited to the first 10 playbacks of MagicQ.
