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

  • AutoFollow "Learning"

    • 2 Comments
    Hello, I have found myself losing more and more time by struggling to get that perfect timing in AutoFollows. And after settling on that perfect 1.09 follow, I lost 5 minutes due to getting this time. I have looked for a solution, but sadly couldn...
  • The ability to remotely open a different show file from mobile

    • 0 Comments
    It would be really helpful in my workflow to be able to send a command to the primary console, from my phone, to tell it to open a different show file than the one that's currently loaded. I work in a repertory environment with specific cue lists for...

  • Purge unused/duplicated presets

    • 3 Comments
    Mainly for touring/Long sit-down shows where you want a clean, bloat-free showfile. The idea would be you could select a range of record targets and then use a purge softkey to sort through those, deleting unused targets, removing unused channels from...
  • Allow renaming folders in the browser

    • 1 Comment
    So often I will fat finger something when I'm creating a new folder in the browser, and then have to make another one and remember to go into the shell and get rid of the misspelled one later. It would be nice to be able to just rename folders directly...

    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...
  • Model Preview in Fixture Model Physical Data section?

    • Under Review on
    • 1 Comment
    It would be nice to have a Model Preview in the Fixture Model area--perhaps incorporated into the Physical Details section. This would save time when searching for a model that is close but not exact--especially if the "Generic" category keeps growing...
  • Focusing shutters on non moving light

    • Under Review on
    • 1 Comment
    Should it be possible to do it in a live mode instead of going in the patch so it could be possible to follow a path. In patch I can't keep the lights that I need to reference on but just the one I'm focusing.....and it would be great if I could also...
  • Patch > Augment3d > Gobo Rotate - add a Mirror flag

    • Under Review on
    • 0 Comments
    Add a mirror flag so that a gobo image can be mirror reflected to match whatever is actually being projected on stage. I notice that b315 includes a Beam Edge parameter, which is presumably going to control image sharpness but isn't yet implemented...

    Now that we are able to enter data like gobo and beam angle for A3D to work with, it would be nice if this new data would be able to get recalled in query and free up some more text fields for other info. Thanks, Tyler
