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

  • Apply Alert TIme as Follow Time

    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...
  • Last Palette Used

    Idea:Add a small label for last palette used to table and magic sheets. Current issue: When using palettes any adjustment turns references to a + or their actual data from reference labels. Current scenario: Fos/4 x8 in direct mode, adjust light to...
  • Custom encoder maps change paramter-categorys when active

    Dear ETC-Folks, this may be a bold request after 3.1 just released but I´ll ask for it anyway as the wish came up today. It´s just a couple of days that I´m playing with 3.1 one and I already love the encoder-mapping. Today I wanted to create one for...

    Its great we can have percentages on time and delay but being able to fan say, [Group] [1] [Delay] [/] [100] [Thru] [0] [Enter]. At the moment obviously you can fan absolute delay and time but we cant on percentage. This'll make discrete timing revolutionary...
