MagicQ Visualiser

39.1 MagicVis

MagicQ includes a visualiser called MagicVis available for Windows, Mac and Linux.

MagicVis is available in two versions:

• A standalone application called MagicVis that can connect to a MagicQ console or receive ArtNet or ACN data from other

brands of console over a network.

• Part of the MagicQ PC application. This allows the editing and visualisation of a show on one PC.

The MagicVis application enables Lighting Designers to add visualisation to their MagicQ console simply by connecting a

network cable and starting the MagicVis application. The graphics and processor intensive visualisation is performed on the

attached computer, thus ensuring that the MagicQ console continues to run at full performance.

In order to render the beams MagicVis uses the graphics card in your PC / Mac - the better the performance of your graphics card

then the better performance of the visualiser. PCs and Macs with shared graphics memory will perform slowly and will only be

able to render small lighting rigs. A Nvidia or ATI/Radeon graphics card costing £100/£120C/160$ will make all the difference

to your system.

39.1.1 Using the Separate MagicVis Application

The separate MagicVis application can connect to a console or a separate PC running MagicQ software. The show will be

automatically loaded from the console over the network.

Conﬁgure the IP addresses of the both the console and the laptop to be within the same IP address range, e.g. set the console to

IP address 2.0.0.1 netmask 255.0.0.0 and the laptop to 2.0.0.2 netmask 255.0.0.0. On the console
