It very much is! I do this on a daily basis. The
Eos Offline editor can communicate with pre-visualization software on the same computer by using a loopback
adapter or on another computer (In my opinion, the preferred way) that is networked to it. I run the
Eos Offline Editor on my PC and the
pre-viz (I use Capture Polar and
WYSIWYG) on my iMac. It works beautifully. The offline editor simply sends signal through the
ethernet cable and is very simple to setup. You must
enable output in offline mode in the settings of the home
page of
Eos Offline. It will ask you to confirm it every time you open the Offline. Now the
pre-viz software is going to detect the signal in the
ethernet port and there is usually a menu to connect to that
console. Reply with your particular
pre-viz and I will be glad to instruct the connection. The
pre-viz software will naturally go dark and home all movers every few minutes. This is to ensure that the Offline isn't being used as a
console essentially. Feel free to ask questions! The concept of
pre-viz really changed my way of thinking, designing, and writing my shows. It is so nice to sit in your office and see what you are fixing to load into the board live and put onstage. I really love it for
scroller and intelligent work. It allows you to work out the transition kinks in your office. Most of all, remember to have fun!
