3      This release comes with a bunch of important new features. We implemented
4      a very powerful and easy MIDI program change mapping, which not only
5      allows you to define which instrument to load on which MIDI program
6      change number (and bank select number), it also allows further parameters
7      like whether the instrument shall be pre-cached or loaded only when needed
8      (and likewise freed when not needed). You can create arbitrary amount of
9      effect sends for each sampler channel, each having an arbitrary MIDI
10      controller for controlling the effect send level in realtime and can
11      flexible be routed to some of the sampler's audio output channel, i.e.
12      to a dedicated one for a certain effect type. The new instruments
13      database allows you to keep track even of largest instrument library
14      collections. You can order them in categories and search by various
15      criteria. The sampler now allows third party applications to offer so
16      called 'instrument editor plugins' which the sampler can use to spawn
17      an appropriate instrument editor application for a selected instrument
18      and for allowing to edit instruments with such an external editor
19      application on-the-fly, that is all modifications made with the editor
20      will immediately be audible with the sampler. No need to reload instrument
21      files anymore. Checkout our brand new instrument editor application called
22      'gigedit' which you can use for this feature. Loading huge instruments may
23      take a long time, that's why the sampler now allows to play an instrument
24      while loading. That way you can i.e. play and hold notes on the keyboard
25      while loading a new instrument on the same sampler channel at the same
26      time. Beside these new features, you can find the common huge list of bug
27      fixes and quality improvements.
