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

  • Partitions Display Page with column height adjustments

    • 1 Comment
    Hi, Using partitions can get frustrating when your channel count is quite large and out of number order. (I'm using channel numbers into 5 digits.) I would like a page dedicated to Partitions a la the Groups Display page and I'd like to be able to...
  • Show control - disable individual event

    • 0 Comments
    Currently you can turn off an entire event list, but it would be great to do this on a event by event basis. Example use case: - Time of day -- system startup -- but perhaps we are dark for a while, so we simply want to disable this event from running...
  • Record To Show Cuelist Before Pressing Enter

    • 2 Comments
    Currently if working on a cuelist >1, going: RECORD CUE 1 ENTER will change the command line to RECORD CUE 2/1 ENTER (or whatever cuelist) but only AFTER you press enter. It'd be great to have a visual confirmation of the cuelist to be recorded...
  • OUTPUT COLORIMETRY

    • 2 Comments
    Hi everyone, There’s something I’ve suggested before (with no luck so far – ETC France doesn’t really get the point…). I’d love to have a new window dedicated to output colorimetry . Once my show is programmed, I want to be able to create output...
  • Pixel Mapping- Intensity only

    • 3 Comments
    I've had a few projects now, where I would like the pixel map to only affect the intensity, so I can use colour palettes to mix the colour- the reason being, that for fixtures that have more colour parameters then RGBW, I can't achieve the same depth...
  • Direct Selects that Flexi to your Channel Selection

    • 0 Comments
    A teatime thought... the console already does this to an extent by visually highlighting the relevant Direct Selects that your channel selection is included in. It'd be nice to have an additional toggle state (per Direct Select bank) that narrows down...
  • HOME HOME to send fixture to home setting

    • 0 Comments
    I was changing profiles on a dozen movers the other day and found myself double tapping the HOME button when done as if I was putting a light to full. Thought this might be a good feature as I have never entered anything else when sending a fixture to...
  • Having the Intensity, focus, colour, Beam and Soft Keys on the Touch Bar.

    • Planned for Future on
    • 1 Comment
    Hi, Very Similar to this https://community.etcconnect.com/control_consoles/eos-family-consoles/f/eos-family/23447/macbook-pro-touch-bar-custom-configuration but just moving the bottom row of buttons as above to the Touch Bar on relevant models.
  • 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...
  • 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...
