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

  • Update User only

    • 1 Comment
    Hey, Could there be an additional Update Modifier for 'User only' pleaseeeee. Ideally can be set as a default by user, just like Make Abs and Ref Only etc. Now that it's more and more common to have multiple consoles/users in a system, it would be great...
  • Colour Families/By-Family Palette

    • 0 Comments
    I often work with multiple lighting fixtures that all use the same colour mixing engine, or are calibrated to the same space. For example, all Color Force IIs use the same colour engine, all Mac Vipers and the Axiom use the same colour engine, and the...
  • More than 12 universes on Nomad, please.

    Hello, please let the Nomad users upgrade the universe output higher than 12. I really enjoy the EOS environment while programming and the flexibility of my custom PC that has fast storage, oodles of processing power, a nice graphics card, etc.. The limitation...

  • Feature request: Bezier curves!

    Bezier curves! Would love to create highly smooth bezier driven curves for 16-bit parameters. I'm always trying to create smooth easings but they are always too rough.
  • More detailed FaderConfig

    • 2 Comments
    It would be nice if you had more opportunities to change your fader configurations. So on a Gio or Ti, you have 10 Fader with each of them 3 buttons. For example: I want to have the opportunitie to say that the button on the really bottom is a go button...
  • Add Notes to palettes and presets like you can add notes to cues

    • 0 Comments
    On location film sets I often have to match a color on the fly to a practical fixture. I’d love a place to put some notes about why I recorded this particular color that gives more details than I can fit on a label (especially if the label ends up on...
  • Alert time improvements

    • 0 Comments
    A few improvements that could be made with the alert time functionality: Alert time on RFR apps - really helpful when having to run around and activate cues at the same time Larger alert time timer - it can be difficult to, at a glance, see how...

    • 1 Comment
    It would be nice to set a priority on universe (or even channel) level in Eos, not only one general priority. Ideally this would be per showfile and device.
  • Subs as DS target

    • 0 Comments
    It would allow to have a better overview of your subs and most importantly it would allow to have bumps on target keys!
