What would you like after v8.0? Tell the core team today!

First out, grate work with the V8. A good step forward for Cobalt.

And now the wishes:

• EOS Colour picker!
• The full Magic Sheet from EOS (Now some parts are missing like pallets with auto colour)
• Default times for pallets. (A way to set times to DS in play settings)
• Colour and pictures for DS. A way to give direct selects Custom colours and pictures/drawings for gobos, focus and so on. (Parts of that can be done in full EOS Magic Sheets)
• Extend theShow control support (see EOS. MIDI USB devices, more control, and so.)
• Make own colours for Devices/Scrollers so that the Magic Sheet and Device control dock shows the colour.
• Customize Gobo wheels in Templates for when the gobos is exchanged in the fixture.
• More flexible way to make grids/picture effects. (Like crop/extend afterwards. not have to know X-Y when starting building the grid)
• A way when busking to "Pre-load" changes and then fade all in at once. Like change backlight and cyc to different colours and then with a master or a go fade them in together.
• A undo button.
• Support for CITP/FPTC for better connection with Capture (And other things running that?)

This is what I have now.

Hi Johannes -

MIDI USB is already supported.

On busking - have you tried Two Scene Mode on the faders (Master Playback Wing or Cobalt hardware required)? They would allow you to set up a whole scene from practically any content combination and fade into it in time.

Thanks!

Sarah

On what level is the USB midi supported? Not this much: https://community.etcconnect.com/control_consoles/f/eos-family-show-control-support-midi-smpte-osc-rtc-etc/23773/midi-over-usb or?

Can I plug in a Midi over USB controller like a Korg Nano and set up faders and buttons for what I want?

 

I haven't used 2 scene mode. mostly because I use top and bottom rows on my master wing. And how would that work with colours and positions rather then just levels. Guess I have to try it out.

Yes, USB MIDI devices have been supported on PC since v6.
They don't apply on consoles as those already have MIDI ports.

The "Direct MIDI" mode was designed for the Nano Korg and similar MIDI fader devices.

So, MIDI over USB is NOT suported on consoles?

Cobalt supports one MIDI In and one MIDI Out, and all the Cobalt consoles already have those on the back.

(Many of the Eos consoles don't have any MIDI ports, so need USB ones)

So then my wish stays on the list. ;) more midi suport.
