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

  • Rate Master for Cue lists - higher max value

    As the Apex console doesn´t have a rate wheel we would like to use the rate master. Unfortunately the max rate of 200 is not high enough for us. We often have cue times like 60 or 90 seconds. With the max rate of 200 it still takes 30 or 45 seconds...

    I would like a way to take data being generated by an effect and make those values manual and be able to store them as a target. A use case example would be using an intensity and/or color effect over a wall of pixels to create an organic pattern...

    I'd like a setting in shell or setup that allows me to specify multiple save targets, then a keystroke that simultaneously saves a version of my showfile to multiple targets (ie, on an Ion to specify to save it to the regular showfile archive and simultaneously...

    A suggestion posed to us by a student joining our EOS training classes: It might prove helpful to allow the end user to select a waiting time between one hit of the GO button, and before next press would register. Depending on the speed of cue triggering...

    In searching through the request archives on this forum, this seems to have been suggested 8 years ago and Anne responded that it would be implemented back in 2.4, but it never was. I'm floating the idea back to the top. This would be really useful to...

    It would be great if you could send messages between users in multi console set ups. This would be bennifitial for environments where our programmers cannot speak and would mean we wouldn't need to set up alternative forms of communication.

    As in graphics apps, the ability to make objects unselectable unless on the layer being edited.

  • Ability to Change Default Sub Settings

    It would great to be able to change the default sub settings. For example, I always want record exclusive on. It would save time and headaches to be able to adjust settings once and just press a “set as default” button and not worry about it anymore.

  • User Default Option for Port Offset vs Absolute

    I don’t understand why etc seems to default to absolute addresses in patch. I don’t understand who uses absolute addresses, unless they really hate typing “/“. Can we make port offset the default in patch, or at least give us the option to choose which...
