Automation

21.1 MagicQ Automation Window

MagicQ supports an automation system to enable it to automatically respond to both external, internal and timed events. MagicQ

can trigger on external events such as MIDI notes, DMX input, serial input, timecode, and the remote contact input. MagicQ can

also trigger on internal events such as system startup, system shutdown and system powerfail. In addition MagicQ can trigger on

timed (scheduled) events.

MagicQ supports an Automation Window for managing all of the automated events. The Automation Window supports multiple

events with each event being subject to speciﬁed parameters.

Each event then triggers a particular MagicQ function – this can be a function on a Playback, a Cue Stack, a Cue, a Page, a Macro

or a Layout.

MagicQ can take a parameter from the event trigger and pass it to the function – for example, it could take the velocity from a

MIDI note event and tigger a Playback level using that velocity.
