The ChamSys Magical Extra Wing is a compact, USB-powered hardware control surface designed to expand the tactile control capabilities of the ChamSys MagicQ PC-based lighting control software. This wing provides dedicated physical faders, buttons, and encoders that map directly to software functions, offering lighting programmers and operators a more intuitive and responsive workflow compared to using only a mouse and keyboard. It is engineered to seamlessly integrate with the MagicQ software, enhancing the speed and efficiency of programming and executing live lighting cues, especially in fast-paced environments like concerts, theater, and corporate events.

The wing features a bank of motorized faders for precise playback control of cues and submaster levels, alongside numerous buttons for accessing palettes, effects, and menu functions. Its high-resolution encoder wheels allow for fine adjustment of parameters such as color, position, and beam attributes. As a USB device, it is plug-and-play, requiring no external power supply, which makes it highly portable and easy to set up with a laptop running the MagicQ software. The build quality is robust, with a layout designed by lighting programmers to prioritize the most frequently used functions during a show.

Ideal for freelance programmers, small production companies, and venues using ChamSys software, the Magical Extra Wing bridges the gap between a full-sized console and a software-only setup. It provides the essential tactile feedback and control density that professionals rely on, turning a laptop into a more powerful and ergonomic lighting control station without the cost and bulk of a full console.
