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

  • Add "Notes" function to parked channels

    • 0 Comments
    How many times have you sat down at your desk after someone else has been covering you or has touched your board for one reason or another and thought "Huh, I wonder why this channel is parked?" The thought crossed my mind while mousing over a note...
  • Highlight Timing

    • 3 Comments
    It would be great if there was an additional manual timing setting for "Highlight Time". Highlighting is one of the most jarring things we do on stage during technical rehearsals, and it would be great if we could fade into the highlight state instead...

    Hey, I'd like to be able to use RDM over ArtNet. Especially for third party RDM enabled ArtNet nodes. Especially because every rental company rents one out. Thanks Lars

    I do a lot of copying and pasting of MS objects. I keep having to select an object and mouse over to the target ID field to change it. It would save a lot of time if selecting an object and then typing a number on the keypad would automatically change...
  • Show Fader Labels on Global fx and Manual faders

    • Planned for Future on
    • 2 Comments
    This seems like it's already on someones list, but just in case it's not... since we can label the faders, it would be useful if we could see the label of the faders when a fader is Global fx or Manual time. When busking I usually use several Global fx...
  • Support for drops

    • 5 Comments
    I would like to specify a jpg to be used as a drop. It would look like a curtain in terms of manipulation but show a jpg that would have it's intensity and color modified by the lights shining on it.

    Being able to assign effects to tempo masters. For example I tap on tempo master 1, an int-fx switches light on and off in time, an focus-fx moves in quarter of that time. https://community.etcconnect.com/control_consoles/f/what-s-your-idea/27985/live...
