This forum is (Sept2016) hard to find

As a long time SF user, I value the wealth of information being shared and the SF forums, however for this to continue at Magix forums, the access to this forum has to be improved.
So far clicking to our old SonyCreative links will send us to the inactive repository of the old forums, without a single link or mention of the existence of this forums.
Then at Magix SF product page the only link to here is via Community, inside Support, but then the path "Forum » All about MAGIX's programs » Sound Forge - PC"
is not only convoluted, but hard to guess from an Audio user expecting this program and its community to have some relevance.
This situation is in stark contrast with the new VEGAS forum which link comes direct from the actual product pages, and consequently the new forum has received a rather successful migration of its users.
Please correct this issue asap, it is for the benefit of all of us; users and the new SF owners.

I concur! I'm also a long time SF user (v3) and was active on the SCS SF forum since 2001.

I agree. As at SCS, SF and ACID seemed to have retained diminished focus from the publishers. These products seem to have been thrown as a condition to facilitate acquisition of VEGAS. Too bad. I'll keep using them until I no longer can. My first SF version is v5.0 and Acid is v2.0. I still have the discs.

I guess that you missed the sticky post right at the top of the Audio forums.

Also, Magix included SF 11 Pro with Samplitude Pro X3 Suite, so there are a bunch of new users interested in what SF can do.

I did missed (a couple of days) the sticky post, however I did see the SF inclusion with Samplitude, which reinforced my (reasoned) belief that Magix will max their profit from investing in the best audio editor for over a decade already.
Also thanks to this forum transparency, it is understandable that the clever developer team has been VERY busy rewriting VEGAS inside out, and only 9 months after, they seem to have 90% nailed it.
Therefore the devs might soon refocus into Soundforge.
