wish list for future versions

1. when pressing channel <x> full, no need to press enter

2. board is web-enabled and will auto-update its software

3. back lit keys

 

having fun, preparing for our first show using the board.

  • Now that the Enter button by the number pad works, what about the + over there?  Would make doing quick notes at the tech table easier....

  • I wish for a way to go to specific Fader pages with one finger- i.e. on the Direct Selects.  I would be satisfied with the Macro option, but the board doesn't recognize the combined keystrokes.  But how about the option of a Fader page section on the Direct Selects.  Either of these would allow labeling.

    Can you already label Fader pages?

    Make a wish and it could come true.

    Putting a fader page selection into a macro I think is fixed in 1.3.1...if not it will be in 1.4...

    With that being said, you can record a snapshot that can take you to a specific fader page, but it will also load your faders...which may be an unwanted side-effect.  We currently don't have the granularity in recording snapshots to just do the page...but I could see that being helpful.  You can also use the rate wheel, when the fader page key is held down to scroll you through each page.    

    You currently cannot label a fader page...it's a good idea, though.  We will add that to the list along with labeling direct select pages (since that is all related in the code).

  • Doc,

    Yes, the snapshots were my first my first inclination, but there was that unwanted side-effect.  I do use the rate wheel, but I can get a little clumsy sometimes, skipping my target or rolling the wrong way.  Is there a way to delete/disable unused fader pages so that if you use only 6 pages, you wouldn't need to roll through pages 7 to 30 in order to do a wrap around?

    Thanks,

  • This functionality may exist on the EOS/ION, but I have not yet found it. But I would like to see a hard or soft Stop and Step button for moving rapidly through cues by disregarding timing information. And it would be slick if time code/show control information was also disregarded.
  • I know that this, for some people, was a really cool Virtuoso idea. I think that the incorporation of this into the ION would speed up programming since the desk does not have the uber direct selects like the EOS. For those of you not failure with this feature I will try to recall it, and I am sure the people who know will correct me. So in live you could press [group] [color] [16] [enter] and the desk would select all active channels in color 16. This feature also worked with preset, cue, intensity, and I am not sure what else. Now I think that EOS users have the ability to do this with [select manual], but the ION can only use this by typing it into the command line. 

  • You mean like when a designer says "Grab all the (currently in) red movers, and make them blue"?  On a HogII, it would be [Active], [red palette], [blue palette]. I don't known the syntax for Eos/Ion, or if it's not yet possible, which I suspect as this is in the "Wish List" area.  Duh, me.
  • Hi there,

    both features are already in :-)

    [Group] [Color Palette] 16 [enter] 

    selects & sets all channels involved in CP16  to CP16 (same for Int/Focus/Beam/Presets/Cues/Subs and step-based effects) ;-)

    If you want to select the channels only (without putting them into the Pal), you could use

    [Query] {can be} [Color Palette] 16.

    And to make "all currently in red to blue":

    [Query] [Color Palette] blue [Color Palette] red

    You might need to use a keyboard shortcut to access [Query] on Ion.

    Cheers,

    Markus 

  • On Eos, you can hold the [Timing Disabled] button and use [Go] and [Stop/Back] to quickstep through the cues. I'm not sure if it disregards showcontrol information, though. Also, I'll have to play with it on Ion, as these keys are under fader controls as softkeys - but it would work, I would think, albeit with more keystrokes.
  • You could also use the [Replace With] key - [1][Thru][5][Colour Palette][x][Replace With][Colour Palette][y].
