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 the option to align fixtures while adjusting their location. Allowing us to align lights in a line with our desired spacing, also allowing us to align the fixture in a circle. Settings would include control over x y z and spacing between lights...

    Hi there! I've been running into a lot of shows where I want to have subs that fire with a discrete delay in/out. Currently the workaround is to have a cue list with two or three cues -- the discrete delay on cue, the discrete delay off cue, and I tend...

    You can see the address count when choosing a fixture in Search, on the "Show" tiles, in the Fixture list...but when that light is actually patched, that footprint count goes away. Just for clarity and helping to make it easier to differentiate between...

    It would be nice to allow us to label parameters of custom fixtures to be whatever we want instead of using the stock library of parameter names. Sometimes the EOS list doesn’t have what I need and I have to substitute with something that doesn’t really...

    I would like to see a new type of (master) fader added. A master for submasters. This master should act as an inhibitive master for only the yellow channels (those under control of a submaster). It should not affect any values coming from other targets...

    To keep track on what Faders/Subs/Cuelists are currently running across multiple banks without loosing too much space, it would be nice to configure the fader module to only show the status display. Just like it does on the bottom part of the PSD for...

    Hi! I would love to be able to use the learn button to record follow times into cues. Example: [Learn] [Cue] [Follow/Hang] and then it counts the duration between presses of the Go button and applies that duration as the cue’s follow time. A similar feature...

    I would love the ability to see and quickly/easily duplicate multicell fixtures in magic sheets with a single reference point, like if you could assign a "leader" channel to one object in a group to be the channel's master intensity and the rest of the...
