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

  • Expand Search (Shift+About) Locations

    It's great that we have even more places we can search, but it would be great if it was expanded into: Cue list names (we can search by cue labels, but it doesn't search the cue list label) Macro+Shift+About Events+Shift+About
  • Augment3D on Apple Silicon natively

    Would it be possible to pass Augment3D in native Apple silicon? Because on Mac Silicon, AUgment3D is very slow on large MVR configs.. Thank you so much !
  • Reassign Event Cue List: Event X Cue Y/ enter

    • 1 Comment
    There should be a syntax to assign events to a different cue list. For example if event list 1 is built triggering cues in cue list 1/, you should be able to select all the events in event list 1 and type cue 2/ enter to reassign to cue list 2.
  • Move Submasters with Midi up AND DOWN

    • 0 Comments
    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...
  • Improved Design for Multi-Cell Lighting Fixtures within Magic Sheets

    • 1 Comment
    Magic Sheets are great but one aspect I have always struggled with is how to represent a multi-cell fixture that still enables direct control of the parameters I want to see when designing/controlling such fixtures. The problem: If you have a lineal...
  • Direct Select Order Toggle

    • 0 Comments
    Would love to have a toggle or option to change the order of direct selects to run top to bottom, left to right so numbers go sequentially down, then over to the next column vs the current method of left to right across then down to the next row.
  • Smart Custom Direct Selects - same as Flexi Option selected

    • 0 Comments
    I think it would be very useful if there was a more advanced Flexi option for Custom Direct Selects. Selected only: Show only the available Direct Selects for the active/selected channel. (e.g. only show presets with data for that fixture or colour...

    An extra option for Fader button config, A set level option with an option for the level, maybe even with a time? Ie, Homeing FX Masters, setting inhibits and show subs to show level at the push of a button. Personally, I run haze inhibs at 50% as...
  • Solo/hilight button

    • 11 Comments
    Coming from Light Jockey and Onyx, I find the solo function really useful. I was really surprised when I took the Eos class and asked about it and found out it doesn’t exist. It seems like a super simple feature to implement.
  • Sensible names for console outputs

    • 0 Comments
    Could you allow labeling outputs with a sensible same? At the moment outputs like Gadgets or Gateways are labelled with their serial number. This makes it hard to tell them apart. It makes even more sense when using the Apex Garage, but adding a Gadget...
