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

    I can use `Channel @ +/- Level Enter` to modify a channel up say 20 points from wherever it currently is, I think submasters should be able to use the same syntax. As part of my break macro I want to automatically glow the house lights, but the best...

    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...

    I would like the ability to look at a channel's level as it has been over time. I realize that blind spreadsheet exists but that only applies to cues. I will often get the annoying request "Bring X back to what it was before" and I sometimes have to...

    I would love to have the option to lock a live summary or table view and a psd to live so that when I switch into blind these stay following the current live cue and channels active in current cue. Sometimes I would like these two displays on one...

  • Emergency marks that happen in a cue part with an existing Mark flag should show as "M+"

    It's very easy to miss broken marks when their emergency marking happens in a cue that already has a mark flag on it. It would be great if emergency marks could always be attention grabbing in the cue list, instead of only when there isn't already a mark...

    Its great we can have percentages on time and delay but being able to fan say, [Group] [1] [Delay] [/] [100] [Thru] [0] [Enter]. At the moment obviously you can fan absolute delay and time but we cant on percentage. This'll make discrete timing revolutionary...

  • Multiple MIDI Tx Source ID configurations

    It's becoming common to need to send MIDI triggers to multiple departments, each with their own cue list and needs. It would be nice to be able to configure multiple MIDI Tx Source IDs with their own MIDI settings (notably MIDI Cue List), so that gateways...
