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

  • Flip focus could update shutters and gobo/animation index when swapping from a positive to negative tilt or vice versa

    • 0 Comments
    In short the output beam relative to the stage could be preserved when using the focus flip tool to invert the current tilt. This would be useful when ensuring that a positive tilt is used in successive cues to avoid extreme focus movements. Parameter...
  • Add single channel to fader quickly to give full intensity control with ability to make an inhibit.

    • 0 Comments
    In a TV studio setting, being able to add a single channel to a fader quickly is very helpful, without needing to record any other subs/presets. (Coming from Congo/Cobalt) Having the ability to make this an inhibit is also very useful.

    Working on a project with only 14 cues, and our PSD scrolls every time we take a cue. I understand the rationale from Anne in a forum a year and a half ago. It would also be great to be able to lock that for specific instances like this, so that I could...
