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

    I have a large project coming up where the DPs insist on using their own XY system for everything, this puts me at a disadvantage as CIE X and CIE Y controls are not fully incorporated into the color picker and ML controls in EOS. I have seen other posts...

    I'm currently using the Robe Colorstrobes in a show and they're way to bright for the event, although when I turn them down the panel on the front of the fixture gets too dark. I don't want to change the global beam brightness as it is ok for the show...

    Don't hide extra colours behind obscure colour combinations, instead lay them all out, add blue or even better a proper colour mixing system for macros, with the ability to recall macro colours from others.
