3.7 MIDI Notes and Timecode
QuickQ consoles support input via MIDI notes and MIDI timecode, enabling users to control cue stacks remotely.
Enabled by default, there’s no setup required on QuickQ for MIDI input, simply insert a 5pin MIDI cable into the
MIDI input port located on the rear of the console.
The incoming MIDI timecode signal can be viewed within the settings window. Once connected, the current
timecode value will be displayed in the lower left corner (shown below).
With timecode values being read by the console, MIDI timecode can be enabled on individual cue stacks by
pressing the menu button, selecting “cue stack options” and enabling “Use MIDI Timecode”. Once enabled,
timecode values can be inserted into the wait field by double tapping within the cell. The cue will now wait to
read the defined time before activating.
MIDI notes are pre-set on QuickQ with Playbacks 1-10 responding to MIDI notes 60 (C4) to 69 (A4). Simply send a
note-on signal to launch and a note-off signal to release each Playback.
Each Playback’s corresponding MIDI note can be found within the “Chase Options” menu. To view this, open the
chase by either holding or double tapping on the desired playback legend. Once open, access the chase options by
selecting the menu button and pressing “Chase Options” (shown below).
