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

  • Sneak & Delay in live

    • 0 Comments
    Can the ability to sneak or delay a range of times across multiple channels in live please be added? For busking, the ability to "roll out" a focus palette, beam palette, color palette or preset over a fanned timing would be beneficial. For example: ...
  • MobileRFR - Better Fader Controls

    • 0 Comments
    Hi there, This request is mostly for iPad, but it would be nice if faders could be upgraded in the MobileRFR app, the recent addition of multitouch control of faders in Eos 3.3 has made me want it in the app to control multiple subs at the same time...
  • Various Scene Colors

    Would love to see more customization when it comes to scenes in an EOS Q-stack. Running a musical right now, and the designer is requesting scene breaks for both top of scene and beginnings of songs. Would be nice to have various colors to make the...
  • Costumization-options for fader displays

    • 0 Comments
    The fader displays on an APEX or the motorized faderwings take up a lot of space. Still I find that the information they give is not all that helpful. Most labels are to long to be displayed properly, especially the labels of list-items are unreadable...
  • Assign different macros to button press and release

    • 0 Comments
    I have come to this requirement when I tried to mimic bump button behavior for multiple actions. My idea was to set multiple faders/subs on key press and go back on release.

  • Better Snapshots

    I find that the current Snapshot are great but can be really tricky to get working exactly how you would like. There's a few things I have identified that would make Snapshots better and easier all around: - The ability to edit Snapshots - The ability...

  • Apply curves to absolute effects and/or apply palettes to linear effects

    • 0 Comments
    Hey guys, This is a request for a specific situation. Very often a gaffer will ask me to set an A and a B focus palette with movers to then move between in an effect. That’s easy enough with an absolute effect using focus palettes. However, the one...
