  • @IndianDigitizer
    @IndianDigitizer 8 лет назад +9

    I have been digitizing since 1999 - auto digitizing is nothing more than a pipe dream - ask any experienced digitizer about auto digitizing and you will get the same reply.
    There are several short comings with auto digitizing - you will never get a complex artwork having more than 2 overlapping colors to work - you can waste as much time as you want adjusting the colors, cleaning the design.
    Another major flaw being that there is NO overlapping in auto digitizing and as soon as you sew the design you will see the fabric showing through where the 2 colors meet.
    Stop wasting your time and money running after this pipe dream, invest in a good digitizing software and learn to digitize, make sure that you have a machine to run your designs, because that is where you really learn how the thread interacts with the fabric.
    I don't know if my comment will be published, but this is an honest and true response.

      +Cheryl York - I have tried many software over the years, some people swear by Pulse and some by Wilcom - I have been using Wilcom, because of its small learning curve and ease to create & revise a design.
      There are some free software out there as well, but I haven't really tried them out - perhaps you should before buying any software.
      Before finally deciding on a software it's best to try it and also sample the designs on your own machine, be comfortable with it.
      Those are my 2 cents - hope I have been helpful.
      Cheerios :)

    • @MTLbigJ
      @MTLbigJ 8 лет назад +1

      This does work...to a certain extent. Basically you have to really know what your doing. The logo cannot be overly complicated either. If its just a simple logo like the one MrJayBusch is doing it works pretty well. I myself work at a company that sells hats, embroiders hats, and charges 50 dollars for digitizing images. (im sure you all know who I'm talking about as my workplace)
      There is a comment here by Indian Digitizer. Everything he is saying is accurate. however, if your image is relatively basic, like literally just 2 colors and no overlap, this works. If u have a more complex image, get it professionally digitized.
      Also, with Sewart, there are tiny minuscule differences when cleaning the image that I noticed that most people wouldn't see. The reason I noticed is like Indian Digitizer mentioned, different thread interferes differently with different fabrics. I know the maximum density to use, the maximum stitches, what will work and what will fail, most people dont. Customers come to me with their auto digitized logos, I plug it into the machine, I will get a result of over 80000, where i have to explain to the customer, if i do this, i will kill my embroidery machine.
      Not to mention, the stitch pattern is extremely bizarre in auto digitizing. The machine jumps back and forth to a bunch of different locations on the logo, which can ultimately damage the machine if not used with caution. Typically, with a properly digitized image, the first stitches will outline the interior and exterior of whatever it is your stitching, then fill in the details, this makes it more rigid, auto digitizing does this horribly. I'm speaking as a person who uses this machine everyday. I'm not a specialist at digitizing, but i am expert at stitching hats.
      Do yourselves a favor, get it digitized if you want a proper result. This is not an industry that can be taken over by robots.

    Hey Brother, I used this video to convert a fairly complex logo for a hat embroidery to help promote my channel. Unfortunately, the logo was a little too complicated and the embroidery job was a mess. All-in-all it was only a $50 mistake (spent more on a bad night out) but I thought I'd share for anyone that is worried about complexity. Having said that, the text wasn't so bad. So if you guys are are looking for simple, I think this will do the job just fine. Either way, it was worth the gamble for me to learn. Still appreciate the video! Cheers. I'll be posting a video on my experience in general, for anyone interested.

      Okay, you click on options, you click on units then you click on imperial (That will show you inches instead of cm or mm). Then you go over to the Resize image icon click on that. You will get a reading of your file. If you have space to trim your file? You click on the Crop icon to trim the design to your liking. The Undo icon can reset any mistakes you made.

    Eventually I got this to work for me. Had to make definitely sure that I had good quality pictures with no blurring and such. My only remaining problem is that, though the pattern looks all tight and together in the picture, usually things like borders and such end up about 1/16-18th of an inch away from the actual image, which makes for some annoying gaps. Oh well, it's still better than ridiculous amounts that other software cost.

      +Sandra Hart just remember that it doesn't really matter what color the file thinks it has. As long as all of one color is the same, when it says to put in the thread for that color, you put in whatever thread you want. The sewing machine has no idea you didn't put in grey thread if you really want white. You can use this information to differentiate between two similar colors. On your image, if you have light and dark green, and the wizard is having a hard time separating them cleanly, just change the light green to bright orange. Then when you put the thread in, and it asks for bright orange, just put in your light green thread. :)

    • @SummerVW1
      @SummerVW1 8 лет назад

      +Sandra Hart you can also merge colors if you only have two. It's been so long, I can't remember what it was called, but there is a way to select individual colors and merge them together until you get the 150 down to two. I used my free trial, but I'm thinking of buying now that I need it again. If I do buy it I'll tell you what it was called.. but it IS there!!

    Thanks for the info, took me (and its not even my embroidery machine) as long as the video played to be able to use the software. I run a photography business so was great to create the logo in photoshop, then throw it into sewart and save. At $75USD for the software, its worth registering, compared to the more expensive software.

    This program is fantastic. I used it many times to convert pictures. It does need some user leaning.

  • @pittaok
    @pittaok 10 лет назад +13

    If you have a home embroidery machine and don't really care about the quality this is fine with a very very basic design. There is nothing on the market today that does a good job for an embroidery house. No program understands if you want satin stitches fills, what type of underlay etc... if you are too cheap to send it to a digitizer, send it to china and have them make a .dst file. It might cost you $10. Spend the $ and get good quality. No commercial embroidery house will take a file made with this program

      I'm a home sewer and have never digitised before. I have grandkids I want to create for, but was paying regularly for small images to sew for them. For me, this package looks to offer everything I could need, but most importantly its so simple, that I know from the start that I'll be able to use it and don't need any advanced knowledge to clean up images etc. Not everyone is doing things 'on the cheap', they just need a useable program that helps them produce the images they want to use quickly. Don't assume that we don't care about quality, thats just patronising. But neither is it cost efficient to pay for a professional package that we either can't use - that doesn't make sense for me and is just like taking a hammer to crack a nut.

    Wouldn't it be wonderful if it were this easy! Making an outstanding logo requires knowledge of digitizing and if there are fonts involved........even more complicated. A beginner with something VERY simplistic, MIGHT find this helpful, but satisfaction would not last very long.........the more you embroider, the more you want to know.......this would not satisfy the really serious individual.

      Ok, so we get it. You're a pro. You do this full time.
      Here's the dealee-o.
      Eventually...
      You.
      Will.
      Stop.
      Either you pass on, you retire, you just get bored and you stop. This is something for someone like me (a beginner plushie maker who just purchased her emroidery machine and wants to make her own eyes and faces for plushies!) or anybody else, for that matter. Ok, yeah, it's not perfect, but y'know what? Who cares! Eventually YOU WILL NEED TO BE REPLACED and we all gotta start *SOMEWHERE*. Unless you got a YT video showing how to do this without charging up the ass for your knowledge, GO STUFF IT and let us noobs learn in our own ways!

  • @Cryb320

    Hello,
    Great informative videos. You present the information in a very clear manner. I have learned the general steps to getting a design to transfer to my Brother PE770 which is great. I am trying to fine tune the design but keep running into some issues.
    No matter how clear the image appears on the program along with ample spacing between either lines or lettering, at some point through the stitch job - part of the design gets entirely too close to each other and the lines blend in. I can send you pictures for examples but I was wondering if you had any advice.
    Also, It seems like I get better, sharper stitched results when the image is a bigger dimension. When I want a logo about 4 inches wide and 3 inches tall... the lettering becomes a mess and not very easy to read. Again, any advice would be much appreciated. Thank you for your time!

    any idea on why chrome would detect the x64 file as a threat and block the download? i have bypassed it and downloaded anyways and my other security scans on the file reports no threats.

  • @Replika2000
    @Replika2000 9 лет назад +14

    There are too many variables to consider when stitching...underlays, type of fills, corners, density, jumps/cuts, bordering and so on. Any converting program won't make a good job when being given a little bit more complicated design than the one above. I have 10 years of experience with Wilcom, and even if his converting program is better than this one, is still not good.

    • @GangTrippy
      @GangTrippy 9 лет назад

      So what would u suggest we use to do it ourselves.....or what do the pros use to do it????

    • @Replika2000
      @Replika2000 9 лет назад +2

      GangTrippyTV Whoever is serious about this job makes the digitizing work manually with different programs (I use Wilcom). Letters, edges, sequences, trims, satin fills, tatami fills, runs, angles of stitching, starts/ends is something a converting program doesn't really know how to do...

    • @michno4323
      @michno4323 7 лет назад

      Even tho you think you know what you are talking about. all of the options above you are talking about can be edited once the image has been digitized. So everything you're talking about can be "fixed"

    • @michno4323
      @michno4323 7 лет назад +12

      Maybe, just maybe the guys on here doesn't want to pay 50 dollars (or whatever you take per hour) for something that can be done automatically and almost as good. i'm sorry you used a lot of time on getting your degree. But automation takes over everything. This is free, and can be done on a lot of images. only thing that can fuck up is small imperfections. but if you are doing this as a hobbyist then that doesn't really matter, i feel like this is more about you being scared of the future of your job.

  • @VezleyVastion

    • @evelynknowles7100
      @evelynknowles7100 9 лет назад +5

      It is still only 75.00 that is way cheaper than any other digitizing software.

    • @VezleyVastion
      @VezleyVastion 9 лет назад +7

      evelyn knowles I agree with you, and the software does seem rather good for the price, but the title still is irritating.. title should be: "NEVER PAY FOR EMBROIDERY FILES AGAIN...until 30 days have past" but I guess that wouldnt have gotten as many views.. :P

After trying to digitize one of my simple logo's (one color) I couldn't get it too reflect "one color" once I hit stitch image it was still trying to stitch abut 4 colors. Any suggestions would be appreciated thanks!

    The program is great. ...but I see a lot of question about how to save it on a jump drive....I figured it out...after you followed all the steps above it changes when go to save the file...go to save as and save it to the removable disk then press save next go to save file as PES....this is the file your sewing machines use to upload. ...but no you have to have the jump drive from your sew machine....a regular jump drive don't work......I have really enjoyed this program♥♥♥♥
