Enter a descriptive prompt that guides the AI in creating your desired image. For example:

The prompt sets the visual direction and thematic elements of the final image.

Realism
Type: Toggle (On/Off)
Default: On
Description:
Enable this option to give your generated image a more realistic, less “AI-generated” appearance. This is ideal for photographs or scenes you want to look natural. If you’re aiming for a more fantastical image or want strict adherence to imaginative prompts, consider turning it off.
Creative Detailing
Type: Slider (0 to 100)
Default: 33
Description:
Adjust the level of micro-detail in your image.
-
Lower values: Cleaner, simpler results.
-
Higher values: More intricate and possibly more “artsy” details.
Experiment with different values to achieve the right balance between clarity and complexity.
Engine
Type: Dropdown
Default: Automatic
Options:
-
Automatic (Let the system pick the best mode)
-
Illusio (Softer illustrations, landscapes, and nature)
-
Sharpy (More realistic, detailed, slightly grainy, ideal for photographs)
-
Sparkle (A balanced engine that blends realism with a touch of softness)
Description:
Select an engine based on the style and subject matter of your image. Each engine has a unique “look and feel,” so try different engines to see which one best suits your creative vision.
Tips for Best Results
-
Start Simple: Begin with a straightforward prompt and lower creative detailing. Gradually increase complexity to refine your vision.
-
Experiment: Don’t hesitate to try different aspect ratios, resolutions, and engines. Each parameter can significantly change the final look.
-
Use Realism Wisely: Turn realism on for lifelike scenes and off for more fantastical or stylized art.
-
Refine Iteratively: If you enable fixed generation, you can tweak your prompt or other parameters step-by-step, observing subtle changes.
By understanding and adjusting these parameters, you can unlock endless possibilities with the Pixio Magnific Upscaler, creating images that are truly unique to your style and imagination.
