Jacques Boileau 1,122 Posted September 2, 2021 (edited) Just took a small break from this thread to give some of my new IK software a try! ARC 3: Was able to easily create a profile using my USB UMIK-1 calibration mic. I played my latest mix through it and it is very different than without it, in a good way. My bedroom studio is ok, but not ideal. I have some acoustic panelling but no bass trap. ARC tamed the bass very well! Lurssen Mastering Console: Probably the easiest way to master and sounds great! To be able to automate changes like adding more push in chorus is very cool. Comment to IK: In the next version of Lurssen, think about a way to add ARC, for those that have it, to the standalone version. These two should be able to go together somehow!

IE….a free Ferrari give-away would absolutely be in order!😎 As a consolation prize I would suggest a nice bowl of tortellini. Best bowl I’ve ever had was just outside of Modena:) 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mmmm I just ordered a bunch of panna da cucina because we don't have any real Italian markets nearby, and can't wait to have it with tortellini. Simple, too: cook quality tortellini, drain, add panna da cucina over the pasta, some pepper, toss it around gently a bit, grate a metric ton of parm or romano to taste over it and enjoy. 3 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fleer 8,393 Posted September 2, 2021 Man, I’ve been lusting after some cacio e pepe for so long now. Just came back from a week in (an almost empty) Venice and couldn’t find it anywhere. Time to revisit Lazio, me thinks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

As an Italian-American I know that some of us dishonor our ancestors with the "go big or go home" (and/or completely bastardized) versions of their classic cuisine and I am absolutely guilty of that but I enjoy a minimalist approach like a cacio e pepe quite a bit. Same with pizza... yes, I enjoy many different kinds (except Chicago style, sorry to offend but in my opinion those are not good) but I am proud that my daughter tends to prefer a basic Margherita pizza more than any other kind. This kid from Joisey enjoys NY style a bit too much (and can only get "kinda close" here but still not nearly perfect... don't start me on the topic of bagels) even if we had to put a napkin on top to sop up the grease. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I respect your opinion about terrible pizza. OK, that's the last one I promise. Seriously, I respect your opinion especially when the pizza I like frequently has so much oil that we'd invade it if it weren't already in the U.S. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Are we still talking plugins, right? Cause I don't recall any buttons or knobs on my plugins here bearing any of such names, and I totally get it that ONE could be tempted to stray away from the topic but all I can read here is that no pizza is EQual so that would suggest that the last one I had, which was Saturated with X number of toppings and side dishes, wasn't the end of world and next time I should try a different type or just go over it and simply enjoy my De-essert. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Zolton 284 Posted September 2, 2021 Twenty-four hours into September, it looks like the current pace is around 9 signups/hour, which would land right around 17 freebies if nothing changes*. * Everything changes. All the time. (Plus, Peter may have something up his sleeve.) (Besides pizza grease.) (Aw, now I'm hungry. Booo.) 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
