I just noticed that the famous Modular Corner web site is gone (modularsynth.co.uk).
Thanks to the Internet Archive, there's still an archived version available:

Remind me who the owner is, maybe he will let us mirror it here.

Thanks, couldn't remember his name. Already emailed that email address without it though, we'll see if he responds.

Thanks for taking care! Did you already get an answer? Hopefully he's doing fine.

Maybe sending him a PM here is also worth a try.

Ben responded, he's looking for a backup and if not we'll rip from the Internet Archive. I mentioned to him that I would like him to confirm an address move with the Internet archive (whether we rip from there or not) to maintain continuity, since he still has the email address exposed on the old site we should be able to do that.
I'll await news from him before proceeding.

Querying Ben again, tried doing an http wget (and a few other methods) and it times out repeatedly, and then I was blocked for 12 hours from the wayback archives. Also looking through the code there's a lot to clean up if I go this route, so hoping Ben has an archive.
