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

  • Query Fixture Types Patched checkbox

    • 0 Comments
    It would be helpful when in the Query Fixture Types Tab to have a checkbox for Is Patched, since we often have a lot of unpatched By Type Fixtures for Palettes and Presets that we would prefer to not remove from the showfile, but clutter up the Query...
  • Button Action for UP and a different Action for Down

    • 0 Comments
    Aside from my Macro wait for release command, a button action for Down then another for Up, would be great! Same ideas as the wait for release on the macro but allowing a TK10 to be like a two action button would be the bees knees. Same idea applies...
  • Can we get Password access controls to the console?

    • 1 Comment
    I see very old discussions about a password/PIN option to protect show files or console access, and a recent discussion about whether this should be a feature request, however I don't see it here in the feature requests. Recognizing that some folks think...
  • Effect Attribute that runs each step across the selection before moving to the next step

    • 0 Comments
    Break mode *purports* to do something like this, but in practice it does not work well for absolute effects with more than one step. I'd like an effect attribute that will sweep a step across the entire selection, and then not move to the next step...
  • Submaster UP/DOWN Time Manual Time

    • 1 Comment
    It would be great to be able to set the up and down fade times on Submasters to listen to the Manual Time Master when active, and when not active to default to whatever time has been set for them. Thanks!
  • Query Discrete

    • 1 Comment
    It would be useful when cleaning referenced data to be able to query the discrete data to see anything not following the by-type leader.

    In the same way there is the flexi option to see only partition channels, can there also be an option to see only Channels that are in A3D?
  • Change order of Direct Select Banks and Magic Sheet Button Fields

    • Planned for Future on
    • 1 Comment
    I'd like to reorder the banks I have in a Direct Select instead of replacing and recreating them. Changing the order is easy; recreating in a new bank is more cumbersome. Many programs have a way to change the ordering by moving up or down one position...
  • Fader Configuration Defaults

    • Planned for Future on
    • 3 Comments
    Creating a softkey that loads a default fader configuration for the selected fader, submaster, cuelist, or Global FX. (buttons/faders, width and other properties like sub/culist timing. This default should be configurable on a User basis. I find it cumbersome...
  • Color flags in summary view

    • Under Review on
    • 2 Comments
    Please could you add a color flag option in the summary view ? (like in magic sheet) It would display a preview of individual color for each projector (and cells) in a very quick and easy way, without grab them. It could also display the label of...
