2019 in review: ETC’s top 10 blog posts

et cetera...: Ready for some hindsight in 2020? We couldn’t let the new year start without cracking that joke or looking back at our “best of” content from 2019. In the last year, we had a lot to discuss, from lighting tips to ETC culture. Check out our most-read blog posts from the last year to make sure you’re up to speed!

My favorite take away from some of the article mentioned

Feel the Power at ETC
Hearing about the process of communicating with the power company and creating a schedule of when they can test their how power rig (so that is doesn’t mess up the city’s power)

Exploring the Network
I've never heard of OSC until this article. I remember trying to figure out how to connect my high school’s element to an iPad app and the whole IP Addressing was confusing for me. Hopefully, I can learn more about it later on

ETC cheat sheet
I love their little cheat sheet of commands. There are some in the back of each light board’s manual, but I’m pretty sure some of these are newer functions

Warm thank you from all of us
I love how they talked about Fred used to create a productive and enjoyable space for this company! I read about his death a few months after it happened and it's nice to see them continue his message after his death.

Happy Birthday
Of course, ETC made birthday cards.

Broadway Runs on Eos
Unsurprised but there are a lot of big-name shows running on ETC consoles. I love Howell Binkley’s work
