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

  • PSD notes window refinement

    • 1 Comment
    Would be lovely to have the Notes window a bit more elegant; make the note stand out more from the cue number and label in front. Sometimes it’s hard to seperate the two at a glance. also, have the font size and pending cue toggle live somewhere on...
  • CSV Advanced Patch Export

    • 0 Comments
    Hi It would be uber useful to be able to do a patch export and type a group in. So I could just export Patch Data for Group 1 for example. Rather than having to remember lots of random channel numbers! I'm aware there is still a bug with advanced...
  • Macroable Format / Hold Format Button

    • 5 Comments
    From what I can tell, there is no current way to use macros to set the live/blind channel display format to a known state, without using snapshots or other trickery. There is a "/eos/key/spreadsheet" command listed in the manual, but it seems to error...
  • channel-level go to cue

    • 1 Comment
    I often need to make a change in blind (or a bunch of changes in a range of cues) but we'll also be running long cues or multipart cues or have some other reason we can't do a global go-to-cue. That reason could be we're flying through cues and making...
  • Pan / Tilt unlimited in A3D

    • 0 Comments
    Hey there, "never ask, never get"... in Augment3d there seems to be no way to show a fixture rotating unlimited. I would like to have such functionality. For more information about my specific issue, have a look at this post: https://community.etcconnect...
  • Fader Config Advanced Merge

    • 0 Comments
    When merging Fader Config, there should be an option in Advanced settings to merge individual faders or fader pages. Example, merge only faders 30/1 thru 38/10
  • Master Lock OSC Disable.

    • 0 Comments
    When a master is locked OSC should show as not enabled or with an asterisk in tab 2. Or! even better, enable and disable OSC when master is locked as a setting!
  • Submaster property that will ignore [StopEffect]

    • 0 Comments
    As a (frightfully common) example, haze is run from a submaster with an effect. I'll put the sub up and forget about it and off we'll go cueing. Hours later we'll get to the cue with the simple request "and here all the effects will stop." Easy enough;...
  • Macro Color Chips - Add Blue as a Color option for the color swatch

    • 0 Comments
    Sending this in based on some tradeshow feedback. While this would only work for Apex due to the oLED, it could also showup correctly in the Direct Selects on a screen for non-apex console. This could either ripple across all of the Eos software, or just...
  • record augmented snapshots records the visible state of each augmented element

    • 6 Comments
    Hello, it would be convenient to get different augmented snapshots with different augmented visible elements (for exemple, only stage and pipes for the working time, then the whole venue for the show time, or get snapshots for different sets)
