Saving your show

MagicQ uses the hard disk to enable storage of a virtually infinite number of shows. When you are programming a

show the show is stored in memory. In order to store your show on the disk you need to press the SAVE SHOW soft

button in the Setup Window.

Whilst programming, you should regularly save your show, so that if the unexpected happens and the power fails your

show data is not lost. You can chose any filename - MagicQ will automatically set the file extension to .shw.

By default, MagicQ periodically saves a backup of your show to disk. It uses the same show name but with the file

extension .sbk.

It is a good idea to save your show to different file names so that you have various versions you can back-track to if

things go wrong. For example, save the show as myshow-patch.shw after you have patched and then as myshow-

final.shw after you have finished programming.

When you shut down MagicQ through the QUIT soft button in the Setup Window, MagicQ automatically saves a

backup copy of your show with a .sbk extension. When you subsequently restart MagicQ this file will be re-loaded.

This ensures that MagicQ starts up as it was when the QUIT soft button was pressed.

Accessing your show files

MagicQ stores the show files in

c:\Program Files\ChamSys Ltd\MagicQ PC\show.

Note that if you are using Vista and Windows 7 then if you have User Authentication turned on the show files will

instead be stored in

c:\users\username\AppData\Local\VirtualStore\Program Files\ChamSys Ltd\MagicQ

PC\show
