    I love the look. This seems the most vibrant of all the Kodachrome 64 recipes I've seen so far. It's interesting how you add significant contrast through the tone curve, but dial it back through the global contrast setting.

    Basically I isolated each stage during development of the profile. The saturation settings from the Spectral Density Curves, the Highlights, Mids & Shadows from the Characteristic Curves , the Contrast for the Internegative and WB for the filter pack. This approach created Layers which could be individually adjusted in isolation (like non destructive adjustment Layers in Photoshop). The coarse granularity of the HSM dials in OM Workspace made maintaining the complex Characteristic Curve shapes while later accurately adding a linear Contrast adjustment on top just too difficult.
