Wordpress update

Steven Yi
Hi All,

I attempted to setup Wordpress on the the Sourceforge project web
space for Csound but it caused strange problems killing the site
altogether (even static html wasn't getting served up).  My current
thought is that we setup a Wordpress site outside of Sourceforge and
make it the project site for Csound.  I could set one up on my server,
also on Csounds.com's server (assuming Dr. B is fine with this), or
elsewhere.  We can also get use of csound.net to point to this server.
 After this, csound.sf.net would have a redirect page that would go to
csound.net.

Thoughts?

steven

I would "love" you to set it up at cSounds.com and use the csound.net and csound.org domains to point to this server.

Re: Wordpress update

I think it would be nice to have all domains go to the one place. I
think having several different Csound domains is a little confusing.
Perhaps now would be the time to consolidate all of them into one site
like Pure Data has. I had been thinking that we could  start afresh
with Csound 6. www.Csound6.com is free. It would be nice to launch a
new website to coincide with its release. After all it will be a big
moment. We've also got lots of other projects on the market now that
are starting to making Csound look pretty hot. Oeyvind and Richard's
plugin solutions are really great and they're throwing Csound into the
world of professional audio, as I hope to do with Cabbage. Csound is
offering more now than it ever has. I think it's time that we
consolidate everything into one ultimate Csound site.

My two cents.

Re: Wordpress update

In reply to this post by rory walsh
but on the other hand, www.csounds.com *is* the "official website" and
the "one place" for csound, has grown and changed over the years, and
recently in particular john clements has put a lot of work in
maintaining the site. it looks now very much up to date, and i always
found john extremly responsive for any suggestion or request or spam report.

so i think we should try to continue keeping csounds.com up to date, and
to support the maintainers in doing this, instead of creating a new
csound website.

what steven now did with the wordpress site (and before andy in
maintaining csound.sourceforge.net) is great though. i think we need a
simple but informative site like this which can be easily maintained and
which links to csounds.com and to other sites. i think the outline is
good as it is; as far as i undestood it's more the problem of
maintaining which led to the move to wordpress.

so my vote is to stay at the combination of a small and general site at
csound.net (now at csound.sourceforge.net, soon perhaps linking to a
wordpress setup) and the main community site at csounds.com.

by the way: before this discussion i never knew that i could access the
general csound site by www.csound.net (and i think this is a perfect
name - thanks god it has been bought by someone in the community).

ciao -

I didn't know that either. Perhaps more integration between the two sites is all that's needed. Csound.net is a good domain name.

Thanks Dr. B,

I've been preoccupied all day and will be tomorrow, but will look at
setting this up on Tuesday on the csounds.com server.  I'll have it be
available as a sub directory from csounds.com until we get the domain
names pointed to that server.

Thanks!

Re: Wordpress update

peiman
If I may make a couple of suggestions.

I think the first thing that should come up on the homepage of csound should be a succinct description of what is Csound, how it is related to the numerous front-ends and little audio/video examples of each as well as some simple codes that can be downloaded and rendered out of the box. Looking at the csound page I see:

"Csound is a sound design, music synthesis and signal processing system, [...]"

This is great but too general to be useful to a first-comer. Also there is no mention of what is meant by front-end and why they are useful. This often confuses beginners.

I think it would be good if we worked on perfecting an educative description of csound that gives the full picture to someone who has never heard of it before and tries to excite newbies.

Best,

Peiman

As far as usability to the average newcomer goes, IMHO likely a Cabbage video is the most exciting thing. Though it might be worth making one ( or beseeching Rory to ) that is shorter and ends with a demonstration of more exciting sounds. At any rate, I think the first questions that need to be answered in brief for someone new and checking it out are:

- what is Csound?  
- why would I want to use it?
- how would I use it?

Oh and, how do I install it? ( not to be confused with 'how would I use it?') 

I think it's important to remember that to a new user those are different. There are so many ways of using Csound that it's overwhelming.  Demonstrating the Cabbage approach, and perhaps other 'mainstream' uses like Csound for Live and the ~Csound object would go a long way to making people want to answer the next one.

are starting to making Csound look pretty hot. Oeyvind and Richard's
plugin solutions are really great and they're throwing Csound into the
world of professional audio, as I hope to do with Cabbage. Csound is
offering more now than it ever has. I think it's time that we
consolidate everything into one ultimate Csound site.

My two cents.

but on the other hand, www.csounds.com *is* the "official website" and
the "one place" for csound, has grown and changed over the years, and
recently in particular john clements has put a lot of work in
maintaining the site. it looks now very much up to date, and i always
found john extremly responsive for any suggestion or request or spam report.

so i think we should try to continue keeping csounds.com up to date, and
to support the maintainers in doing this, instead of creating a new
csound website.

what steven now did with the wordpress site (and before andy in
maintaining csound.sourceforge.net) is great though. i think we need a
simple but informative site like this which can be easily maintained and
which links to csounds.com and to other sites. i think the outline is
good as it is; as far as i undestood it's more the problem of
maintaining which led to the move to wordpress.

so my vote is to stay at the combination of a small and general site at
csound.net (now at csound.sourceforge.net, soon perhaps linking to a
wordpress setup) and the main community site at csounds.com.

by the way: before this discussion i never knew that i could access the
general csound site by www.csound.net (and i think this is a perfect
name - thanks god it has been bought by someone in the community).

Thanks Dr. B,

I've been preoccupied all day and will be tomorrow, but will look at
setting this up on Tuesday on the csounds.com server.  I'll have it be
available as a sub directory from csounds.com until we get the domain
names pointed to that server.

Thanks!

Hi All,

I attempted to setup Wordpress on the the Sourceforge project web
space for Csound but it caused strange problems killing the site
altogether (even static html wasn't getting served up).  My current
thought is that we setup a Wordpress site outside of Sourceforge and
make it the project site for Csound.  I could set one up on my server,
also on Csounds.com's server (assuming Dr. B is fine with this), or
elsewhere.  We can also get use of csound.net to point to this server.
After this, csound.sf.net would have a redirect page that would go to
csound.net.

Thoughts?

For sure.  John Clements is also an excellent writer - and very dedicated to "teaching" and "demonstrating".  I am sure that he would be all for input and suggestions to help better shape the main page and to fine-tune the message.

If I may make a couple of suggestions.

I think the first thing that should come up on the homepage of csound should be a succinct description of what is Csound, how it is related to the numerous front-ends and little audio/video examples of each as well as some simple codes that can be downloaded and rendered out of the box. Looking at the csound page I see:

"Csound is a sound design, music synthesis and signal processing system, [...]"

This is great but too general to be useful to a first-comer. Also there is no mention of what is meant by front-end and why they are useful. This often confuses beginners.

I think it would be good if we worked on perfecting an educative description of csound that gives the full picture to someone who has never heard of it before and tries to excite newbies.

video demos of all these things too!  - and more audio and model instruments - like .csd of the week/month.  comp of the week.
tutorial video of the week.  a concert-hall.  a more active instrument collection - to which we could all contribute - and a more active
forum - all @ csounds.com.  have been some of my ideas..

and....

to connect with these discussions - how do I compile from sources?  - step by step for each platform with maybe a video dome of 
someone doing it on each platform.

platform - specific demo videos  would be helpful - and more "current"

and

video demos of....

Installing
Using
CommandLine
CsoundQt
Blue
CsoundForLive
Csound~
Cabbage
WinXsound
CsoundAC
etc....

As far as usability to the average newcomer goes, IMHO likely a Cabbage video is the most exciting thing. Though it might be worth making one ( or beseeching Rory to ) that is shorter and ends with a demonstration of more exciting sounds. At any rate, I think the first questions that need to be answered in brief for someone new and checking it out are:

- what is Csound?  
- why would I want to use it?
- how would I use it?


Oh and, how do I install it? ( not to be confused with 'how would I use it?') 

I think it's important to remember that to a new user those are different. There are so many ways of using Csound that it's overwhelming.  Demonstrating the Cabbage approach, and perhaps other 'mainstream' uses like Csound for Live and the ~Csound object would go a long way to making people want to answer the next one.
