"In over 10 years reviewing magic tricks I have never seen a product that pushed magic this far. People will talk about what was possible BEFORE and AFTER Legacy"
- David Penn

LEGACY represents a new era in Magic.

It is a state of the art unique patent-pending system invented by João Miranda and his team. It allows the performer to predict numbers, words and drawings with genuine INK seemingly written or draw by hand, on a business card, post-it note, playing card and more.

The Legacy system comes complete with a special "wallet shell" that looks like an everyday wallet, and yet conceals the ultimate secret weapon.

LEGACY is supplied with charging equipment, black ink and black pencil, white paper for your predictions, a sharpie and a custom carry case.

The device works with the Legacy app designed from the ground up and resembles your Smartphone Notes app (iOS and Android designs are included). It also has several other features allowing you to control the whole system, and customize your routines.

The legacy app "transforms" the letters that are written in the fake notes app into designed letters, automatically, so no assistants are needed.

Take a look at some of the Legacy system features:

1. The predictions look 100% HANDWRITTEN or HAND DRAWN.
2. Legacy is virtually silent in operation, designed specifically for close-up performances.
3. Predict up to 4 different lines (perfect for a confabulation routine).
4. The ink lasts for over 40 words before refilling is needed. It will last through a whole day, so you are always ready to perform, anytime, anywhere.
5. A real sharpie nib is used, so the predictions couldn't look more authentic.
6. The battery standby time is 3.5 hours. In performance, you can easily turn the system ON and OFF in front of the audience in a moments notice, meaning that one charge will last for days of use.
7. The Legacy app will automatically let you know when to charge the system.
8. Works with all iOS devices, all Android devices and PCs with a distance of up to 20 meters.
9. The system uses the Dual-core Xtensa LX7, one of the worlds most advanced CPUs.
10. The system uses the WPA2-PSK wi-fi protocol. The most secure in the world.
11. Modular system: Slightly thicker than a deck of cards, the LEGACY system can be placed in various places, allowing your creativity to get wild.
12. You can use the wallet as a hold-out, so you can steal the predictions invisibly and palm them, OR even make them appear seemingly from a closed envelope that is in full view.
13. Over-the air updates: once we add more features the updates will be sent by email and the whole system can be updated as easy as 1,2,3! without the need to send the physical product to us!

Currently the alphabet can be customized to the performer font. Be aware the legacy system only allows for customization if your language is written letter by letter (Example: P-A-R-IS).

FAQ:

1. How is the information "sent" from the app once the prediction is written?
There are two ways: the first where you pre-determine how many seconds of delay you wish once the word is written: So lets imagine you pre-determined 10 seconds of delay.
Once the spectator finishes typing his selection, 10 seconds later the information is sent to the system, automatically.
There is also the option to just press "enter" if it's the magician writing the information himself. The app looks 100% like a Notes app.

2. How does the performer knows when the system finished writing the prediction?
Once the information is sent, a very small grey dot appears in the left corner of the screen. Once the dot disappears it means that the prediction is finished. It is only visible for those that know it, so you won't be afraid of any spectator finding it out.

3.Can I change the wi-fi name and apply my own password?
Yes. The Legacy app settings allow you to change the wi-fi network name and password, effortlessly.

4. What characters does the app allows the performer to write?
The app allows the performer to write the whole 26 alphabet letters (capital letters included), all the numbers, the comma, the slash and the plus and minus sign.

5. If the spectator chooses a word that contains many letters "a" would they be suspicious that every letter is designed equally?
We had that in mind so what happens is that we designed three variants of the same letter. The algorithm is clever so any repeated letter in the word will always be different!

6. Can I use the wallet as an everyday wallet?
Technically yes since part of the wallet has space up to 9 credit cards, and even a pocket bellow where bills / receipts can be placed into.

7. Do I need internet to perform the effect?
No. You can perform Legacy anywhere on earth.

8. What is the warranty on the product?
We give lifetime warranty for parts and labor. The shipping is covered by the customer.
However we have literally intensely tested the product for thousands of hours.
The product was built to last a lifetime.

9. How long does it take for the Legacy system to write?
It depends on the word, but the average time is just 15 seconds per word.

1000 stars if I could rate so. That's right. João and his precious team did it again. What you receive is a top notch electronic device, that defies everything magicians know about magic and mentalism. Further than this, a tool that opens up a world of possibilities in magic.

You receive not only the main gimmick, but an arsenal of peripherals recommended and quoted in the instructional video to start performing right away: the best pencil, the most suitable sharpener, a precise exacto knife, refill blank cards, etc etc... all thought out in the details!
Legacy was planned to be used as a stand alone effect. It works all by itself, and is very easy to use! In fact, no assistants needed actually, only the magician and the prediction. It's the purest way of performing it and works straight way, but you have options...

You can always ask for a stooge/partner to make the 'dirty work' (but believe me, there's no dirty work at all). He/she can get the info and bang. But what I've planned and came up with even before buying Legacy was using it together with another marvelous prop called Syncplify Note Pad, by TCC. It allows you to get ANY info secretly, with no words said. So I mixed up both and ended up with the final and best solution (for me), the holy grail of a prediction act.

If you're a magician and you are reading this, you can guess the world of possibilities you are able to do with Legacy. Imagine combining it with Anverdi's items, both dice and color matches? Or maybe with Psypher Pad by Robert Smith? What about Mnemonica? Programming the remote (sold separately) to match every number to a card? Or even putting your existing Dream Pad together with Vision Box on steroids? (Also two gems from João...)

The possibilities are endless. As I'm typing this review, the ideas keep coming...(a killer ending to an invisible deck routine for instance LOL).

A chapter apart is João's and his team customer service. It is really dedicated to their customer, iot to make us feel really cherished. His team is always available and proned to find the best solution.

To sum up, Legacy is a precision made device that elevates your magical powers! If you've always been a fan of other João' creations like The Easel or the Lynx Blackboard, now the magic market was contemplated with a pocket version of those, much more amazing, portable and affordable.

Consider the 3 Stars as 'Jury is Still Out' Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on August 29th, 2022
Here is why I used that number of stars and comment.
I spent the incredibly expensive amount ($1750) for this system.
The wallet worked for a few days as I tried to learn how to use it. I did not find that easy, by the way. While I could experiment with it, it struck me as quite finicky which could make it unreliable.
Then, it stopped working. It didn't shut down completely as some internal parts still move, but it will not function as intended as it is now.
Supposedly, Joao Miranda offers a lifetime warranty on this product, but they are all on vacation until 09/05/2022. I know this from Out of Office email replies. I am hopeful that once they are back, they will address this problem to my satisfaction.
Penguin assures me that I am still well within my 45 day return period, and they have always been honest and trustworthy with me.
Every day that the Miranda Team is away, I feel the clock ticking.
This is WAY TOO EXPENSIVE a prop not to have it working as designed.
So, 'the jury is out' until further notice.
