Maestro is the most sophisticated embroidery design package available today. Advanced VBE functions, automated productivity enhancing features, and specialty stitch effects provide the most powerful tools for creating breathtaking Multimedia designs.
Key Features:
Advanced Automated Features
Automated functions speed up design creation. Auto Breakup slices complex segments and applies stitch directions to create perfect satin stitches. Auto Sequence optimizes the sewing order of a design based on user-defined criteria. Auto Start/Stop sets closest-point connections and automatically places entry and exit points on all selected segments.
Librarian Central
Store your designs in a special, private Librarian database created just for you and hosted on our secure server, so you can access it anytime and anywhere using a browser. Create designs and save your designs directly in your Librarian database (youll need an internet connection to do so). Categorize designs by subject, stitch count, design specifications etc. for easy design retrieval. Youll never waste time looking for a design again! As a special bonus, were including over 250 professionally digitized Sapphire Collection designs that are already categorized in your Librarian Central design database.
Auto Color Blend
Blend two stitch colors together to create beautiful effects. Use graduated density to vary the stitch density across the satin and fill segments, creating a three-dimensional effect.
Turning & Elastic Effects
Create interesting stitch effects with Turning and Elastic carves. With Turning, the carved tile pattern turns along the angle lines you specify. With Elastic effects, a single pattern is stretched to fit the width of the column.
Shape Artwork
Shape artwork tool allows you to Unite, Clip, Exclude etc so artwork can be manipulated and transformed with ease. It is easy to add the perception of a shadow to an artwork font (like you see in the image alongside), exclude intersecting areas in artwork, or add a steil border around the entire shape. Simply convert the segments to artwork, unite them, and convert to a steil. Shape Artwork gives you freedom to create interesting effects from artwork.
Fractal Fill
Keep stitch count low and watch as randomly placed run stitches stylishly cover large areas of a design.
Wave Fill
Create beautiful flowing stitches using the Wave Fill effect. Wave Fill follows the direction lines of any curves you draw.
Presets
Collections of commonly used combinations of settings for each punching tool. Select the appropriate Preset for your tool, and the settings are automatically applied for you. Dramatically reduces digitizing time. Over 50 presets included in the software.
Satin Swirl
Single and dual swirl effects add a nontraditional look to satin stitches. Perfect for use with cording designs.
Line Carving & Region Carving
Add depth and realism to designs with these fancy stitch effects. Line Carving is a great way to add 3-dimensionality to designs while reducing stitch counts. Use Region Carving to create a carved tile region that differs from the carved fill background.
Font Creator
Convert a collection of digitized characters into a ready-to-use Pulse embroidery font. Control kerning and baselines to ensure flawless lettering. Instantly expands your font collection.
