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

    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...

    When using partitions (and groups as cue list filters) it almost would be preferable for the selections to be absolute and not react to changes in patch. So often, we'll add a channel here, or move this channel to there, and now my partitions and filter...

    Would love to be able to set a channel display to show channels that are active in certain palettes/presets. Example- I'm looking to track fixtures in specific focus palettes whilst active. I could continually query, but of course that's an extra step...

    Hello, This is a request from a trainee. They are running a show where cues are triggered by a mixture of manual Go presses, and OSC triggers from automation, and are finding it irritating that their alert times are only running if the cue is triggered...

    Since Alert Time finally made it's way from Cobalt to EOS, it would be great if a related feature would too: On Cobalt you can apply the recorded Alert Time as the Follow Time for the Cue. (Or multiple Cues at once). This would be handy on EOS as...

    Hello, It would be a huge help for Nomad users and Companion users to have Alert Timing sent over OSC. For productions that want the structure of a Time-code show but need the flexibility of manual cue control, Alert Timing is amazing. Adding the ability...
