Hi folks, 

it seems that csounds.com is no longer available? Always found some nice articles there, would be a waste! Think it could be great if the articles from there could be archived somewhere else if the website is discontinued.

All the best,

This has popped up on the Discord list too. There are a lot of online links/references to material that was hosted on the csounds.com site, which is no longer available. It would be a shame to lose that material.

I am not disputing that fact. I'm just concerned that the Csound community will end up losing a wealth of precious resources.

Hello Csounders,

I absolutely love the csound.com website. 

And yes, there are some things that are not there from my original csounds.com website.

Over the next year, I plan to share some of the historical things again via csounds.com, but I did want to cut down on the confusion and clear out many of the outdated items.  And so...

It is not gone.  And it will return so that the links from many places have a place to go and things to see, read, hear, and download.

hi philipp -

can you give an example about an article you found and read at 
csounds.com?  you can find a working version of 2024 here: 
https://web.archive.org/web/20240326023713/http://www.csounds.com/

we are discussing to integrate some content to the community URL 
csound.com, so it would be helpful to hear your case.

cheers -
	joachim

Hi everyone, Joachim and thanks for the responses, 

Unfortunately I can't name an exact article at the moment, but it helped me a lot in my research on opcodes or techniques. Csounds.com was another great source of inspiration besides the reference and the Floss manual. I often found myself on the site browsing or researching some topics.

Also had contact with steven via discord and he suggested to possibly archive the things on github, it would simply be nice to preserve what was developed there in one form or another.

Best,

Philipp
