ChamSys QuickQ 10 Touchscreen DMX Lighting Console

The ChamSys QuickQ 10 is a compact, beginner-friendly DMX lighting console designed for control of dimmer channels and LED colour mixing fixtures in smaller venues, houses of worship, theatres, and event production. It features a large 9.7-inch multi-touch display with a smartphone-style interface, making it approachable for operators with limited console experience while delivering the fixture compatibility and networking capability expected of professional gear.

For venues and operators comparing affordable touchscreen lighting consoles for church, small stage, or club installs, the QuickQ 10 stands out with built-in Wi-Fi and a free companion app for iOS, Android, and Windows tablets - eliminating the need for a dedicated lighting position. RDM autopatch automatically detects and patches compliant fixtures, dramatically reducing setup time. Shows programmed on the QuickQ 10 are compatible with and can be loaded onto any ChamSys MagicQ system, giving operators a clear upgrade path as their production demands grow.

The console outputs one universe of DMX (512 channels) via a single 5-pin XLR and supports Art-Net, sACN, and Pathport for network-based DMX distribution. Its fixture personality library covers over 30,000 fixture files, with regular updates pushed via free software releases. A free offline editor for Mac and Windows allows show pre-programming without the physical console, enabling efficient show preparation ahead of event day.
