How to re-create my favorite dressing?

I really like Le Grec's orginal creamy dressing. However I know it's made with canola oil and a few preservatives, I'm wondering how I could re-create it but healthier, any cue?

Ingredients are:

  • CANOLA OIL
  • WATER
  • VINEGAR
  • SEASONING [SALT, MALTODEXTRIN, MODIFIED CORN STARCH, YEAST EXTRACT, CORN MEAL, SPICES, RICE, XANTHAN GUM, COLORANT, DISODIUM EDTA, MFG AID (SILICON DIOXIDE, POLYSORBATE 80)]

Many VSTi don't work

For some reason many of my VST instruments don't work in the pre record slots. I see they receive midi fine, I also see they generate sounds internally (if they have meters in the plugin) but I can't hear anything, the VUs are not showing anything in Tape16.

Also, all my Native Instruments open with the window super small and I'm unable to resize them.

The one that don't work at the moment (VST 3 versions on Mac):

  • Decomposer Sitala
  • Native Instruments (every instrument from komplete 15 standard)
  • XLN Addictive Drum
  • Superior Drummer 3

The ones that do work:

  • BX_oberhausen
  • Arturia Pigment
  • Splice instrument
  • all UADx instruments I own

Can a mackie controller extender be used to get 16 channels?

I have an SSL Nucleus with uses a mackie control + a mackie control extender to work as a 16 channel surface control. I can't quite figure out how to set this up at the moment, any cue?

Right now both sections of the controller are assigned to the same first 8 channels.

Is it possible to save a VST's X Y configuration as default?

When using plugins there is this X Y axis pad to which we can assign a control to the X axis and another for the Y axis. I know I can save a default configuration for the controls themselves (the sliders when you unfold the VST's panel) but this does not seem to save what's assigned to the X Y pad.

Is there a way to save that as default?

Sometimes I start writing a new song with an audio drum loop that I inspires me. After some time when the song has evolved I often want to add drum fills and / or change things up a little but since the loop is an audio loop it's hard to find samples that match the tone of the loop to create a fill or to create a beat variation.

How do you guys usually deal with this?

Hi,

This year we decided to build 2 4'x8' garden bed, they are 6' appart from each other (both 4' sides are facing each other), and I would like to make an arch between them, either rounded or pergola style, to grow cucumbers and beans on them.

My question is how do you deal with insect netting on those arch? I read that they are important but I don't how I could use them on an arch. I'd really like to hear about your experience with this.

Thank you.
