the show control hardware support for Cobalt

Hello!

I have a question to the ETC team, and that is is there any plans for ETC to make the new midi and I/O gateways work with Cobalt?

As a LD and programmer I want to grow and don't want the gear to be my limit. But when I now want to grow in the direction of show control, MIDI and so ETC removed the Cobalt compatible gear and made the new one EOS only. 

 This on the other hand pushes me away from cobalt quicker, but that's maybe the plan? all you loose is a few 100€ for some gateways when there is no new desks to sell? Hoping we go for EOS?

Thanks, Johannes

  • yea, got the same answer from another person.

    Just that what is future release? they told us "about 5 years" that cobalt software will be developed after the "death" of the Cobalt line. that's now ~4 years. in another year I won't spend money on a Midi or I/O gateway for ETC systems. it will be to close to my swap to a new system (Sorry, EOS don't do it for me). Making the implement of the new funktions just in the end of a dying systems life feels like a waist of time.
