jbthrock21 7 Posted April 26, 2016 which VinylMaster is comparable to SignBlazer? LTR or Pro Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
slice&dice 2,450 Posted April 26, 2016 From a strictly technical standpoint (i.e. - getting your cutter to cut lettering) even the VM 'cut'-basic- version seems to outshine SignBlazer in most functionality. I have both installed (VM CUT and SBE) and still prefer the cartoon interface of SignBlazer. But for pure power and capabilities of all phases of production, by far, VM is the way to go, and for sure, any upper version will only improve your experience. And remember, there is an active participation of FutureCorp. employees here on these USCUTTER Forums, providing answers to FAQ's and other questions that pop up around here time to time.

jbthrock21 7 Posted April 26, 2016 thank you sir! i just know some stuff is limited on signblazer and want a more up to date software. My little vinyl cutter that i bought to do my racecar decals has not become a second job. i have more and more people coming to me for signs and decals. I just looking into the future Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
darcshadow 1,626 Posted April 26, 2016 Don't know anything about VM, but with Signblazer and Inkscape there isn't much you can't do, just a matter of learning how to do it. Every design program has it's own way of doing things, some are easier to pick up than others. Inkscape is free and a pretty powerful tool. The only thing I've noticed that Inkscape doesn't do well is font manipulation, signblazer actually does a better job at that. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I just looking into the future Ahhhhh, the 'Future' of vinyl cutting! We die-hard users of WinXP and Signblazer cannot really afford to be too confident in "the Future" at all --- this, after all, is a technology dating from the 1950's (Hewlett Packard) that we're still humping along with now into the 21st century. I want to cling to SignBlazer as long as I'm able, it is like an old comfortable pair of shoes. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Camel 7 Posted April 26, 2016 Used SB for about 6-7 years, switched the VM the other month and I'm glad I did. SB has started to show its age the last 5-6 years and I get so much more done with VM in way less time. Plus you can get support with VM if you run into complex issues.
