MagicQ Pixel Mapping

[bishopthomas]

I'm under the impression MagicQ can do pixel mapping, am I right? I have a gig next week where pixel mapping would be great, although I could also just do straight DMX (but I think I would end up using 3 universes). I know absolutely nothing about pixel mapping and I won't have the fixtures in front of me until I pick them up before the gig. Are there any tutorials for pixel mapping on MagicQ? Any pointers I should know before I dive in?

Have you checked out the pixel mapping section of the manual? It is pretty detailed and should answer most of your MagicQ pixel mapping related questions.

Its got an awesome layout view, so you can pre-program stuff and have a very good idea how it works. Chamsys has some cool effects where it actually generates some basic stuff in real time, which can give very cool effects. Just jump in an layout your grid. Also check out how you can have multiple grids cover the same LEDs so you can break it up differently if you want to. You will still need the full amount of DMX though, its not a video out.
