Version CVS HEAD (?) |
2 |
|
3 |
* packaging changes: |
4 |
- changed deprecated copyright attribute to license; added ldconfig |
5 |
to post-(un)install steps; added devel package for liblinuxsampler; |
6 |
to linuxsampler.spec (RPM) |
7 |
- install necessary development header files for allowing 3rd party |
8 |
applications to link against liblinuxsampler |
9 |
- liblinuxsampler's API documentation can be generated with 'make docs' |
10 |
(Doxygen required) |
11 |
- added benchmark to automatically detect the best triangle LFO |
12 |
implementation (currently either an integer math solution or a |
13 |
di-harmonic approximation), automatic detection can be overriden |
14 |
with --enable-signed-triang-algo=x and --enable-unsigned-triang-algo=x |
15 |
configure script argument though (mandatory for cross-compilation) |
16 |
- do not automatically pick optimized gcc flags if the user already |
17 |
provided some on his own (as CXXFLAGS) |
18 |
- added compile time option to disable processing of All-Notes-Off MIDI |
19 |
messages |
20 |
- added compile time options to allow disabling the various audio and |
21 |
MIDI drivers |
22 |
|
23 |
* Gigasampler format engine: |
24 |
- extensive synthesis optimization |
25 |
(reimplementation of EGs and LFO(s), removed synthesis parameter |
26 |
prerendering and the synthesis parameter matrix in general, splitting |
27 |
each audio fragment into subfragments now where each subfragment uses |
28 |
constant pitch and filter coefficients. The volume coefficient is |
29 |
linearly interpolated inside a subfragment, unless |
30 |
--disable-interpolate-volume is set.) |
31 |
- fine tuning of the EG modulation parameters |
32 |
- improved filter cutoff calculation by adding support for the |
33 |
following gig parameters: Cutoff freq (used when no cutoff |
34 |
controller is defined), Control invert, Minimum cutoff, Velocity |
35 |
curve and Velocity range. The keyboard tracking now scales |
36 |
cutoff frequency instead of resonance. |
37 |
- added support for gig parameter Resonance. |
38 |
- fixed bug in sysex handling (patch by Juan Linietsky) |
39 |
- added global volume attenuation of -9 dB (0.35f) to prevent clipping |
40 |
which can be overridden with --enable-global-attenuation |
41 |
- EG fixes: made the length of "attack hold" stage more |
42 |
accurate. Release stage can now start before attack stage |
43 |
ends. Cancel release didn't work when sustain was zero. Attack |
44 |
time now has a minimal value to prevent clicks. |
45 |
- fixed pitch changes larger than one octave |
46 |
- fixed EG3 (pitch envelope) synthesis which was neutral all the time |
47 |
- implemented portamento mode and solo mode (a.k.a 'mono mode'): |
48 |
all modes can be altered via standard GM messages, that is CC5 for |
49 |
altering portamento time, CC65 for enabling / disabling portamento |
50 |
mode, CC126 for enabling solo mode and CC127 for disabling solo mode |
51 |
- fine tuning of the curves for volume (CC7), pan (CC10 and gig |
52 |
parameter) and crossfade |
53 |
- added support for the "attenuation controller threshold" gig |
54 |
parameter |
55 |
- added smoothing of volume changes caused by control change |
56 |
messages |
57 |
- sample loop parameters are now taken from the DimensionRegion |
58 |
instead of the wave chunk |
59 |
- fixed keyswitching for v3 gigs with a number of keyswitch splits |
60 |
not equal to a power of two |
61 |
- reimplementation of the filter algorithm. The new filter is more |
62 |
accurate and supports all gig filter types, including bandreject |
63 |
and lowpass turbo. |
64 |
|
65 |
* LSCP server: |
66 |
- fixed application exit on broken pipe error (fixes bug #20) |
67 |
- fixed the notification messages delay due to lack of |
68 |
network activity (fixes bug #26) |
69 |
- fixed parser bug which occured on space(s) within device parameters |
70 |
(e.g. "SET AUDIO_OUTPUT_CHANNEL_PARAMETER 0 0 SOMEPARAM='foo bar'") |
71 |
|
72 |
* audio driver: |
73 |
- added aRts audio output driver (by no means RT safe) |
74 |
|
75 |
* MIDI driver: |
76 |
- fixed legacy sysex code which caused dispatching of MIDI SysEx |
77 |
messages several times instead of once |
78 |
|
79 |
* general changes: |
80 |
- support for muting sampler channels and solo mode of the same, two new |
81 |
LSCP commands ("SET CHANNEL MUTE" and "SET CHANNEL SOLO") and two new |
82 |
fields ("MUTE" and "SOLO") for command "GET CHANNEL INFO" were |
83 |
introduced for this, the behavior is the same like on a mixer console |
84 |
(patch by Grigor Iliev, a bit adjusted). Also added configure option |
85 |
--enable-process-muted-channels which can be used to enable the |
86 |
processing of muted channels. |
87 |
- support for sostenuto pedal |
88 |
- support for monitoring the total number of active voices |
89 |
(new LSCP commands: GET TOTAL_VOICE_COUNT, GET TOTAL_VOICE_COUNT_MAX, |
90 |
SUBSCRIBE TOTAL_VOICE_COUNT, UNSUBSCRIBE TOTAL_VOICE_COUNT) |
91 |
- fixed some memory management errors |
92 |
- fixed some concurrency problems that could lead to crashes when |
93 |
LSCP commands were executed |
94 |
|
95 |
Version 0.3.3 (15 July 2005) |
96 |
|
97 |
* packaging changes: |
98 |
- fixed compilation with gcc 4.0 |
99 |
|
100 |
* Gigasampler format engine: |
101 |
- LFO preprocessing was performed even though the respective LFO was |
102 |
disabled by the instrument patch (minor efficiency fix) |
103 |
- if period time of chosen audio device is too small (< MIN_RELEASE_TIME) |
104 |
for volume ramp downs in the same fragment (needed for current voice |
105 |
stealing implementation) then simply inform the user with a warning |
106 |
about possible click sounds and reduce the volume ramp down |
107 |
appropriately instead of cancelling the audio device connection |
108 |
|
109 |
Version 0.3.2 (24 June 2005) |
110 |
|
111 |
* packaging changes: |
112 |
- updated autotools build files to compile on OS X |
113 |
(conditional compilation of CoreMIDI and MidiShare drivers) |
114 |
- hand-crafted assembly optimization code can be disabled with |
115 |
'./configure --disable-asm' (definitely not recommended) |
116 |
- fixed 'make dist' rule to include all necessary files |
117 |
- require automake (>= 1.5) for 'make -f Makefile.cvs' |
118 |
(due to 'dist-bzip2' automake option) |
119 |
|
120 |
* Gigasampler format engine: |
121 |
- support for the gig parameters for "release velocity response" curves |
122 |
- fine tuning of the EGADSR envelope |
123 |
- volume of release triggered samples now depends on note-on velocity, |
124 |
note length and gig parameter "release trigger decay" instead of |
125 |
note-off velocity. |
126 |
- revised voice stealing |
127 |
(fixes crash and endless loop caused by voice stealing) |
128 |
- don't reset scale tuning on instrument or audio output device change |
129 |
- handle key group conflicts right at the beginning of each fragment |
130 |
instead of when the respective voice is actually launched |
131 |
(fixes undefined behavior if stolen voices belonged to a key group - |
132 |
this case was followed by a "killed voice survived" error message) |
133 |
- fixed minor issue with null/silence samples |
134 |
(those stole voices even though they don't need a voice at all which |
135 |
resulted in "voice stealing didn't work out" messages) |
136 |
- don't reset volume, pan, pitch and MIDI controller values on |
137 |
instrument or audio output device change |
138 |
|
139 |
* LSCP server: |
140 |
- fixed some crashes (patch by Grigor Iliev, fixes #19) |
141 |
- fixed LSCP event "CHANNEL_INFO" notification |
142 |
(e.g. did not notify on volume changes or MIDI program change events) |
143 |
|
144 |
* linuxsampler application: |
145 |
- added command line parameters --lscp-addr and --lscp-port to override |
146 |
default IP address and port of LSCP server |
147 |
|
148 |
Version 0.3.1 (24 May 2005) |
