FutureComp VinylMaster v2 96

A Truly Integrated Development Environment
VinylMaster Pro's user interface puts all the designing tools you'll ever need right at your fingertips, while the convenient pop-up menus mean that your screen is never cluttered.

Clicking with your right mouse button opens VinylMaster Pro's handy Power Menus, letting you get the job done without having to waste time searching though masses of hidden options. The program's main toolbox is designed to give you instant access to all the program's powerful features, while you can close it to regain valuable screen space at the click of a button.

Our program is based on a modular design concept - its great power comes from a series of external programs, some of which are shown here. Click on any one of the diagrams to learn more about each module.

This structure makes VinylMaster Pro uniquely upgradeable - modules can be updated as they become available on CD or in some cases by simply downloading them from this site.

The great news is that these 'plug-in' modules are a standard part of VinylMaster Pro as shipped. There is no 'junior' or 'lite' version of our program - once registered, any copy is fully operational as-is.
