How Does It Work?

How does a driver help you? For a simple example think about how your printer works. It doesn't matter what application you are using on your computer, you can always print to your printer. Whether its from your text editor, your web browser, your email program, or virtually any other application, you can always send documents out to your printer. This is because you have installed a 'driver' for your printer, that all programs can utilize. Shouldn't everything be this easy? Now, with Solustan's LinkMotion technology, it is.

You no longer have to worry about learning to use yet another piece of software. Are you comfortable with Corel DRAW, or perhaps a well-known CAD program? Wherever you are comfortable creating your designs, your work ends there. LinkMotion works with virtually any design program, so you can output your job straight from there!

What's the bottom line? LinkMotion works seamlessly in the background; you have no learning curve. Install the software and an off-the-shelf amplifier, and you're ready for production! Here's a list of just a few of the benefits you'll enjoy with LinkMotion.
