For the older Amaya, I set it at a thread feed of six for sewing on denim or quilted material, and maximum speed of 1,000. Good stabilizing is a must also. For the XT, be certain to select "rayon" as the thread type in settings, stabilize the daylights out of your hooped item, and use manual thread feed. You'll have to play with it more to get it to run without breaks; somewhere between two and six, and if the design is layered, the further into sewing it out you get and the more layers you get, the more you'll have to increase your thread feed.
