How do I apply Digital Gobelen online?
Open the Digital Gobelen preset, add your image or video, and adjust the loaded effect layers to suit your source. Preview the result before exporting.
Which effects create Digital Gobelen?
The active preset combines NTSC, Circular Blur, exposure, and Dither. The interaction between softened color and the dither pattern gives the image its textile-like texture.
Is it a weaving or embroidery pattern generator?
It is a visual image treatment. It does not create loom instructions, stitch counts, or a production-ready textile pattern.
How can I make the pattern more detailed?
Reduce blur and tune Dither gamma, strength, and palette settings. Start with a source containing broad, varied colors so the pattern has useful differences to describe.
How is it different from RGB Hatch?
RGB Hatch emphasizes separated RGB stripes and block distortion. Digital Gobelen uses analog color processing followed by dithering, creating a different, more mottled pattern structure.
