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

  • Coloring of PSD Rows

    • 1 Comment
    Hello, I would very much like a way to customize cuelists like being able to colorize a row(cue or part) to make it stand out. For example all cues triggered by Qlab could be purple, and timecode triggered cues could become red. The PSD is elegant and...

    Hello there, i stumbled over Priority per Address while using a new Fixture. The new Fixture had some problem with this special type of priority. Since i had heard of some other issues with sACN in the past i wonder if they are related. Futher...

  • Implementation of Concert and Arc system software into EOS

    I know it would probably be hard to do but I think something that would be really cool and convenient for designers would be an implementation of the existing concert software into EOS so you wouldn't have to download and switch between two different...
  • Make "Offline" a big red warning

    • 0 Comments
    When using the console in offline mode, it is easy to forget about it afterwards, especially if auto start is configured and it automatically selects offline because is was the last selected option. The "Offline" warning in the bottom right corner should...
  • Tab 99 > More clear indication of what triggered a specific cue or macro

    • 0 Comments
    For example, was cue 2/2 triggered by a user pressing go, show control via list 1/ or 2/, OSC input, etc. It might be encoded in the data itself, but it isn't human readable.
  • add icons to cues (like many other record targets) to show up in PSD

    • 1 Comment
    now that we have icons for many of the record targets, it would be helpful to allow them to cues as well. i'm aware that currently those icons are meant to show up in direct selects and cues don't exist there, but those icons could be a way how to add...

  • Patch Cleanup

    • 0 Comments
    I spend an awful lot of time hunting down blank, useless channels in Patch and deleting them. It would be great to have a cleanup function that automatically gets rid of channels in patch with no address, no profile, and no data in the show file.
