    In this video I am teaching how to add more image resolution, halftone LPI, angle and shape options into the Max Chroma Channel-Seps Auto-RIP actions, and I create a new dot option for a 600 DPI resolution, 45 LPI (Lines Per Inch) Elliptical Halftone dot, and then set it as the new default for the action set.
    I use an example color separation in the video where I show how to utilize the 12-hues channels for an Orange color in the separations, merging some of the other hues, eliminating channels that won't be used in the print, and then also I teach how to use the "Grey Underbase" technique and no black screen on a black shirt color, to create a simulated process color separation with the new 45 LPI elliptical dot halftone settings, and bring it down to just 6 screens - Grey Base, Red, Orange, Yellow, Blue, and Top White. Then I show the difference between running that at 600 DPI resolution vs. 1200 DPI resolution and compare the halftone dot shapes and clarity.
    Thanks for watching and stay tuned for more videos showing all of the files and automations included with the Max Chroma Photo-Tessellator 2022 package and the various ways to use it on different kinds of images and artwork.

    Thanks so much for all your effort. You must have been doing this for quite a time. I’ve been at it off and on for 20 years, (designer) but only doing manual seps out of Photoshop for a few years. Your work strains the power of my intellect. A BOOK by you would be super cool.

    How about 1 click buttons to merge channels?

      I've added an updated version of the actions with a "MERGE CHANNELS" button that uses the "Apply Image" dialog to let you choose which channel you want to merge into the one you have selected. I'm making a new video to show some of the updated features and how to use the merge channels button.

    Maybe you must admit of you take the "INTERLOCKING" teory (base on Fandango angle screen) from Tom Knight from AdvanceTshirt... i think, o i am wrong?

      No actually it is the other way around, I introduced the Interlocking halftones to Tom many years ago and I helped him to make SimpleSeps Raster and Inkseps. I was doing interlocking halftones in 2010 and many people have done them years ago, it is not new technology in terms of interlocking 2 colors together.
      The special interlocking techniques I create with many of the actions, teachings and programs I do are more about multi-color interlocking with more than just 2-colors, when you have 3, 4, 5+ colors all needing to interlock together to blend.
      Most of the ways people are showing interlocking halftones are not of 3+ colors, only with 2 colors and inverted-dot halftones. My methods go further into separation and halftones by making 3-color, 4-color, and 5-color interlocking halftone separations and with custom-color choices.
      It is similar to index printing but using halftone shapes and AM or AM/FM hybrid rather than just diffusion pixels. To understand interlocking halftones is more than just for 2-colors blending but it is a good start, it just requires different techniques to achieve 3/4/5 color interlocking also.

      @@potatosalad5355 Yes thats very cool! Interlocking halftones go way back even to those days you could do them with the rubylith films and manually make halftones to overprint or interlock.
      Stay tuned, I am working on an all new web application update where all these techniques become possible in realtime on your artwork and image, it is so fun and amazing I can't wait to show it in videos!
