Magewell announced today that the company has joined the Q-SYS Technology Partner Program. This program enables software and hardware technology partners to create solutions that integrate with Q-SYS, a cloud-manageable audio, video and control platform. The Q-SYS Control plugin for Magewell’s USB Fusion video capture, mixing and presentation device has been endorsed with Q-SYS Certified status and is now available for download through the Q-SYS Designer Asset Manager found in Q-SYS Designer Software.

Magewell says its USB Fusion hardware and accompanying app let users combine cameras, wired or wireless screenshares, and media file sources into visually compelling live presentations for streaming, live event production, online lectures, webinars, video conferencing and other applications. Users can switch between sources or combine inputs into attractive scene layouts.

Magewell says the initial release of the Magewell USB Fusion plugin for Q-SYS supports basic source switching and scene layout capabilities. All functionality available through the front-panel buttons on the USB Fusion hardware can be replicated inside Q-SYS Designer Software. Support for additional USB Fusion features is planned for a future update of the plugin.
