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

  • Allow [Query] {Marking} and {Marking} also for AutoMark

    • 0 Comments
    Query Mark and Query Marking currently only work with referenced marking. i would love to see those two query conditions also work with AutoMark. I assume that Query Mark should be the simpler of the two. it's those channels that show MK in the M cue...
  • Cue Time Fader

    • 1 Comment
    A fader like the Manual Time Fader but for cues. This would be like the "Exec Time" fader from MA. There would be an option in cue list settings for a cue list to "listen" to the Fader for timing. Would be useful for busking when you could have a cue...
  • Update Trace should show which cues will be updated

    • 0 Comments
    Currently (v3.2.9), the CIA does not change when the Trace keyword is added or not. Using Update Trace, I would find it helpful to know which cues will be updated, with multiples lines if several cues are concerned.
  • Add "Notes" function to parked channels

    How many times have you sat down at your desk after someone else has been covering you or has touched your board for one reason or another and thought "Huh, I wonder why this channel is parked?" The thought crossed my mind while mousing over a note...
  • Layers in Magic Sheets

    As in graphics apps, the ability to make objects unselectable unless on the layer being edited.
  • Copy To -> Move To -> Exchange With

    • 3 Comments
    Sometimes i really need an exchange. For channel values in the cue, or exchanging of groups/pallets, but first thing mostly. Please, ETC!
  • Macro (and other) Names use across all areas in EOS

    The "problem" is, i name a macro, load it on a Submaster and give this Submaster on a faderknob. And normal i expect, in the Field the Name for the Macro will shown. But i get only the Macro Number. I don`t know all 100-200 Macros i have only by Number...
  • Attach snapshot to user

    • 0 Comments
    It would be nice to attach a certain snapshot to a user. If you switch users, you,d go to the appropriate snapshot for that users favorite screen layout. As with encoder templates, if you do not fill out the users snapshot number in settings, it will...
  • Ability to Change Default Sub Settings

    • 2 Comments
    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.
  • Show Notes Tab

    • 0 Comments
    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...
