QuickQ Range

The consoles all feature a large multitouch touchscreen. Consoles run the same software but differ in the number of multifunction faders, playbacks, encoders and DMX universes. Consoles have built in WiFi to allow connection to the free QuickQ Remote App. An external monitor can be used (but is not required) to display a selection of other windows. The consoles include a USB work lamp and an external power supply.

To the left of the display are multifunction faders. The faders can control individual fixtures, groups of fixtures or cues. Below the display are the playback faders.

The grandmaster fader is to the right of the playback faders, allowing control of all intensities. Make you sure you keep this at full!

The QuickQ Rack provides "always on" control for installation projects. The QuickQ Rack is designed to act as a hub for the installation with physical control via the Rack’s 10 buttons, SnakeSys 10Scene Wall Plates or other networked consoles. When other consoles are detected on the network the QuickQ Rack can automatically hand off control to the lighting console and resume control once the console is turned off.

10 buttons on the front of the unit allow for control of 10 individual scenes or 10 playbacks of single scenes or automated chases. These 10 buttons can be extended to remote stations via the Wall Plates.

Ten Wall Plates can be connected (daisy chained) to each of the 4 Phoenix Connectors on the QuickQ Rack for a total of 40 wall stations. SnakeSys 10Scene Wall Plates duplicate the control of the 10 buttons on the QuickQ Rack. Each connector also provides one connection for one each additional switch input. The switch input enables simple zoning for airwall systems for multiroom venues.

The QuickQ Rack has built in WiFi to allow connection to the free QuickQ Remote App. Scan the included QR code printout with your tablet or phone to connect. The QuickQ Rack is programmed using the QuickQ Remote App or by attaching a mouse and a monitor.

The free QuickQ Designer Application allows pre-programming or editing of shows on a Windows or macOS computer. It features a built-in 3D visualiser to show the lighting if you are not in the venue. Shows programmed using the Designer Application can be saved to a USB memory stick and loaded on the QuickQ consoles. The Designer application does not output DMX and can not be used to control lights or test remote control.

The free QuickQ Remote App controls QuickQ consoles and QuickQ Rack from a smartphone or tablet via the QuickQ’s built-in WiFi. All console windows are available on the app and can be operated independently of those on the console. The app and a 9.7 inch or larger tablet are ideal remote interfaces and a second touchscreen monitor set up for the consoles.

SnakeSys 10Scene Wall Plates have 10 backlit buttons to extend 10Scene control. They are supplied in pairs with both Black & White faceplates with blank labels. These plates fit in a standard in-wall single gang wall box. Easy to daisy chain, with up to ten 10Scene Wall Plates per chain, these can cover long distances using solid core Cat5e or Cat6 cable. 10Scene uses its own 10Scene protocol for communication between wall mounts and the controller. 10Scene wall plates are powered over the 10Scene protocol, no external power supply is required.

SnakeSys 10Scene Cable Specification

The SnakeSys 10Scene Gateway provides an interface to connect QuickQ consoles to 10Scene wall plates via an Ethernet connection. 10Scene wall plates are connected to each of 2 Phoenix Connectors on the Gateway for a total of 20 wall stations. Each connector on the Gateway also provides one connection for one each additional switch input. The switch input enables simple zoning for airwall systems for multiroom venues. The Gateway has 2 total zone switches.

The QuickQ Rack and Consoles can receive control from other external control systems. Further details are provided in the following sections of this manual:
