> It was a shame there was the whole thing of losing the source code

Yes, I can remember that very well! Eventually Oskari rebuilt the app basically from scratch, using .NET (at least IIRC) and that's what you get today if you go to the site and download it. It's not the original app but it maintains the same API for modules. Oskari nowadays is a researcher and he published some interesting articles: https://arxiv.org/abs/1407.5042

Nice, thank you! I had never heard of it but after watching a couple of YouTube videos I decided I'm going to download it

Ah interesting! I think I had moved away from Buzz by the time it was rebuilt but have very fond memories of the software and the community around it.

I hope you enjoy Drambo! It can take a little while to get into the swing of it but if you used to use Buzz I really think you’ll enjoy it. There are a tonne of tutorials on YouTube about it to get going. Being able to host AUv3 plugins is awesome too!
