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

  • Assign different macros to button press and release

    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.

    Those who know me will know that this is really the start of yet another go at a much bigger discussion, but as a relatively simple starting point: Could we please have the ability to assign groups to the Apex mini-wheels? So as soon as you move the...

  • Intensity in Home Preset

  • 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...

  • Always display DMX Grid in Patch>Patch

    I often want to look at DMX usage per universe before making a choice about patch actions. Since the space is otherwise just a blank screen, it would be nice if the DMX grid is always be displayed and navigable in Patch>Patch even when no channel is selected...
  • 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...
