Feature and improvement suggestions

Feedback from users like you help us shape and improve Eos for all productions. We receive a large number of feature requests and suggestions from many sources, including this forum. Your comments and votes help us understand which features you’re passionate about, but there are many additional factors which inform development prioritization for any given release.

The most helpful information you can provide us when commenting on issues is how a particular suggestion would help you. If you describe your use-case and how the suggested change would benefit your work, it lets us gain a much deeper understanding of the need behind the suggestion. Suggestions often have an impact on what we work on, even if we ultimately choose not to implement a suggestion exactly as it’s described. Our ultimate goal is to understand what you and all users need and to create solutions that meet those needs. Occasionally, that’ll mean implementing a suggestion as described, but it usually means working to understand the need behind the suggestion and how we can meet that need for as many users as possible.

While we endeavor to update and respond to popular suggestions, the volume we receive means there will be occasions when we can’t provide an update or response in a timely manner. For bugs and show-critical issues, please use our standard forums and support structures: https://www.etcconnect.com/Contact/Technical-Support.aspx

  • Add "min" to macro softkeys

    • 0 Comments
    The Min enconder value button is not available in the macro editor softkeys. It would be nice to have that added so we didn't have to learn it via live then build a macro around it.
  • Scaling of grouped Objects in Magicsheets

    • 0 Comments
    Hello, it would be nice to be able to also scale groups of objects in a Magicsheet instead of only being able to rotate them. For example given the case that a Magicsheet symbol which consist of multiple parts, such as body, scroller and barndoor, has...
  • Cue list release time

    • 0 Comments
    Add a simple option to have the cue list release in the same time as the cue down time, or have a deduced dedicated time in the cue list tab under the cue list. This feature is a huge one, especially for those of us that busk and have to constantly change...
  • Filter Scene Direct Selects

    • 1 Comment
    I'd like to be able to configure a scene direct select to only display scenes in one cue list. Custom direct selects can be used to get here, of course, but it's a clunky solution for any situation outside of a locked in show.
  • Augmented3D Only - Invert Pan/Tilt

    • 2 Comments
    There needs to be a pan and tilt invert option for Augment3D only (the same way you can invert the pan/tilt visuals in moving light display) The issue I had this past week, is that I tried to add Augmented to the show after we already started writing...
  • Timing Disable Button Mode for Subs

    • 1 Comment
    It would be nice to have a mode for bump buttons that ignores the timing of the bump button and snaps on and off when pressed and released. The reason I suggest this is to save space on my fader wing. Right now, I like to have even/odd bumps for busking...
  • Swap Fixture Position between Channels

    • Planned for Future on
    • 3 Comments
    Hi there, I’d like to be able to swap fixture position information in patch for A3D Edit. This would be super helpful in repositioning fixtures. Thanks!
  • Search for advanced merge source & target

    • 1 Comment
    When performing an advanced merge, the ability to search the highlighted parameter. For example: Cue while list is highlighted - [Shift]+[About] would permit searching cue list labels while start is highlighted - would search cue labels within...
  • User Specific Notes

    • 0 Comments
    An option for a user to have a descrete notes field. So, that the LD or Programmer could have the option to track different notes if they wanted. Could be a checkbox in user settings: "This user shows Master Notes or User Notes"
  • sACN input not only to submasters but also to faders

    • 0 Comments
    Hey there, I'd like to map sACN to Faders. In our youth theatre ensemble we have got an old Element. It can't upgrade to EOS 3. But I'd like to use my nomad with Augment3d and all these new EOS 3.x features. Element has 40 faders I'd like to use. I...
