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

  • Linear Effect Scale Data

    • 1 Comment
    It would be great to be able to enter (+)#% or /# values in the scale box for linear effects. This would assist in creating linear effects that are relative to the intensity. That way we could change a channels intensity on the fly without having to adjust...

  • Add a Softkey selection option for Custom Direct Selects

    When creating a Custom Direct Select and you select Button and Console Button appears; it would be very useful to have another option for the Softkeys in this same location. This would allow the creation of a Direct Select which has a Softkey function...
  • World position/rotation values in Patch

    • 0 Comments
    When looking at the Augmnet3d tab in Patch, I would like a way to switch between seeing nested XYZ values and World XYZ values, without having to switch to the Augment3d Edit tab.
  • Icons in Front of Labels on Direct Selects

    • 0 Comments
    It would be great to have a checkbox in the tab settings for Direct Selects for whether Icons are shown behind or in front of Labels. With them currently behind Labels I am finding it very hard to see the Icon even at 100% Opacity Thank you, Steven...

    Hi! I would like to use submasters controlled by Midi. They should work "fader"-style. With the velocity of the note going to full the submaster should go to full (this works already), with the velocity going to zero the submaster should please move...

  • Product Idea: Augment3d Camera Position Sensor

  • More time to see or read why the BACKUP synchronization failed

    • 0 Comments
    There is a message coming up on screen while synchronizing the backup console. If the sync fail, we don't have time to see or read why. I had to record the screen with my phone to be able to read why it failed.
  • Link Back to Cue

    • 0 Comments
    Just like link-to, there needs to be a link back. For example I can use link to so we can skip over a block of cues that we're going to skip this performance, but if I need to jump backwards over that skipped section I need to manually go back to cue...
