* Reload instrument script automatically after being modified by an
  instrument editor.
* Bumped version (2.0.0.svn8).

1 persson 2837 Version SVN trunk (?)
2    
3 persson 2856 * SFZ format engine:
4     - added support for <global>, <master> and #define (patch by Alby M)
5    
6 persson 2837 * general changes:
7     - fixed printf type errors (mostly in debug messages)
8 persson 2840 - use unique_ptr instead of auto_ptr when building with C++11
9 schoenebeck 2871 - Added RTAVLTree class which is a real-time safe ordered multi-map, thus
10     allowing to sort data efficiently in real-time safe manner.
11     - RTList class: added methods for moving/inserting elements to arbitrary
12     position within a list.
13     - RTList class: added method fromPtr() for creating an Iterator object from
14     a raw element pointer.
15     - Attempt to partly fix resetting engine channels vs. resetting engine, an
16     overall cleanup of the Reset*(), ConnectAudioDevice(),
17     DisconnectAudioDevice() API methods would still be desirable though,
18     because the current situation is still inconsistent and error prone.
19 schoenebeck 2879 - Active voices are now internally grouped to "Note" objects, instead of
20     being directly assigned to a keyboard key. This allows more fine graded
21     processing of voices, which is i.e. required for certain instrument
22     script features.
23 persson 2837
24 schoenebeck 2866 * packaging changes:
25     - removed unnecessary dependency to libuuid
26     (originated by libgig's usage of it)
27 schoenebeck 2884 - Automake: set environment variable GCC_COLORS=auto to allow GCC to
28     auto detect whether it (sh/c)ould output its messages in color.
29 schoenebeck 2866
30 schoenebeck 2871 * Real-time instrument scripts:
31     - Implemented scheduler for delayed MIDI events and for suspended scripts.
32     - Built-in script function "wait()": implemented support for function's
33     "duration-us" argument, thus scripts using this function are now
34     correctly resumed after the requested amount of microseconds.
35     - Built-in script function "play_note()": implemented support for
36     function's "duration-us" argument, thus notes triggered with this
37     argument are now correctly released after the requested amount of
38     microseconds.
39     - Fix: script events were not cleared when engine channel was reset,
40     potentially causing undefined behavior.
41     - Fixed crash which happened when trying to reference an undeclared
42     variable.
43 schoenebeck 2879 - Built-in script function "play_note()": Added support for passing
44     special value -1 for "duration-us" argument, which will cause the
45     triggered note to be released once the original note was released.
46 schoenebeck 2885 - Instrument script classes now exported with the liblinuxsampler C++ API.
47     - Added new API method ScriptVM::syntaxHighlighting() which provides
48     a convenient syntax highlighting backend for external instrument
49     script editor applications.
50 schoenebeck 2889 - Added new C++ API class "ScriptVMFactory".
51     - Extended parser issues to provide not only first line and first
52     column, but also last line and last column of issue (thus marking
53     the precise span of the issue within the source code).
54 schoenebeck 2902 - Reload script automatically after being modified by an instrument
55     editor.
56 schoenebeck 2871
57 schoenebeck 2787 Version 2.0.0 (15 July 2015)

66 persson 2185 - fixed compilation with gcc 4.6.1
67 persson 2203 - another "make dist" fix, for the LV2 plugin
68 persson 2185 - made --enable-pthread-testcancel default on Mac OS X
69 persson 2197 - minor Makefile fix for building lscpparser when build and source

91     - support building with older jack versions
92     - support building with spaces in vst sdk path
93 persson 2519 - enabled automake 'subdir-objects' option and moved external
94     source references (vst, au, asio) from makefiles to cpp files,
95     in order to get rid of warnings from automake 1.14
96 persson 2382
97 persson 2086 * general changes:
98 iliev 2012 - Refactoring: moved the independent code from
99     the Gigasampler format engine to base classes
100 schoenebeck 2047 - command line option '--profile' is currently disabled, since the
101     respective profiling code is currently broken
102 schoenebeck 2053 - Introduced support for optional environment variable
103     "LINUXSAMPLER_PLUGIN_DIR" which allows to override the directory
104     where the sampler shall look for instrument editor plugins
105     (patch by Luis Garrido, slightly modified).
106 schoenebeck 2121 - implemented Roland GS NRPN 1ArrH which allows to set volume per note
107     - implemented Roland GS NRPN 1CrrH which allows to set pan per note
108     - implemented Roland GS NRPN 1DrrH which allows to set reverb send per
109     note (in this implementation of the sampler its simply hard routed to
110     the 1st effect send of the sampler channel, no matter what the actual
111     effect type is)
112     - implemented Roland GS NRPN 1ErrH which allows to set chorus send per
113     note (in this implementation of the sampler its simply hard routed to
114     the 2nd effect send of the sampler channel, no matter what the actual
115     effect type is)
116 schoenebeck 2124 - implemented support for internal LADSPA effects
117 schoenebeck 2140 - raised limit of program change queue from 100 to 512
118     (as suggested by Alex Stone)
119 iliev 2223 - implemented sine LFO, pulse LFO and saw LFO
120 iliev 2296 - experimental support for per voice equalization
121 iliev 2306 - added command line option --exec-after-init
122 schoenebeck 2330 - Introduced new C++ API method:
123     EngineChannel::InstrumentFileName(int index)
124     allowing to retrieve the whole list of files used for the loaded
125     instrument on an engine channel (a.k.a. part). Some GigaStudio
126     instruments for example are splitted over several files like
127     "Foo.gig", "Foo.gx01", "Foo.gx02", ...
128 schoenebeck 2375 - Added new C++ API method Sampler::GetGlobalMaxVoices().
129     - Added new C++ API method Sampler::GetGlobalMaxStreams().
130     - Added new C++ API method Sampler::SetGlobalMaxVoices().
131     - Added new C++ API method Sampler::SetGlobalMaxStreams().
132 schoenebeck 2377 - Various "const" and "restrict" optimizations.
133 persson 2382 - all engines: add pan CC value to instrument pan parameter before
134     applying panning, instead of using two separate pan functions in
135     series (#182)
136 persson 2427 - added a lock guard class for exception safe mutex handling and
137     used it everywhere appropriate
138 schoenebeck 2448 - Immediately apply scale tuning changes to active voices.
139     - Exposed scale tuning to C++ API (along to the already existing standard
140     SysEx way).
141 persson 2452 - lsatomic.h fixes: seq_cst load and store were suboptimal for x86
142     and broken for ppc64. (Seq_cst loads and stores are actually not
143     used in LS, so the bug wasn't noticable.)
144     - lsatomic.h: added ARMv7 support
145 schoenebeck 2500 - Added support for multiple MIDI input ports per sampler channel (and
146     added various new C++ methods for this new feature / design change, old
147     C++ API methods for managing SamplerChannel's MIDI inputs are now marked
148     as deprecated but are still there and should provide full behavior
149     backward compatibility).
150     - AbstractEngine::GSChecksum(): don't allocate memory on the stack (was
151     unsafe and caused compilation error with clang 2.x).
152 schoenebeck 2506 - Bugfix: only process the latest MIDI program change event.
153 schoenebeck 2515 - Introducing the LSCP shell, which provides convenient control of the
154     sampler from the command line by providing LSCP aware features.
155 schoenebeck 2521 - VirtualMidiDevice: Added support for program change.
156     - VirtualMidiDevice: Added support for bank select (MSB & LSB).
157     - VirtualMidiDevice: Added support for pitch bend.
158 schoenebeck 2559 - Aftertouch: extended API to explicitly handle channel pressure and
159     polyphonic key pressure events (so far polyphonic pressure was not
160     supported at all, and channel pressure was rerouted as CC128 but not
161     used so far).
162 schoenebeck 2594 - Added initial support for real-time instrument scripts. The script VM
163     code is shared by all sampler engine implemementations, however only the
164     gig file format currently provides support for storing instrument scripts
165     (as LinuxSampler extension to the original GigaStudio 4 format).
166 iliev 2012
167 persson 2043 * Gigasampler format engine:
168     - implemented the "round robin keyboard" dimension
169     - fixed round robin and random dimensions for cases when number of

173 persson 2382 - bugfix: pitch LFO controller "internal+aftertouch" was broken
174     - bugfix: filter keyboard tracking was broken
175     - filter performance fix (an unnecessary copy was made of the
176     filter parameters in each sub fragment)
177     - handle special case when pan parameter in gig file has max or
178     min value
179 schoenebeck 2396 - Exclusive Groups: don't ever stop voices of the same note,
180     doesn't sound naturally with a drumkit
181 persson 2408 - fixed EG1 modulation when attack or release is zero
182 schoenebeck 2559 - Fixed support for 'aftertouch' attenuation controller.

589     (fixes #208)
590 schoenebeck 2523 - Fixed bug in LSCP grammar definition which caused a statement like
591     "GET SERVER INFOasdf\n" to be accepted as valid statement (was so far
592     practically irrelevant, however it caused problems with the new LSCP
593     shell's auto completion feature).
594 schoenebeck 2672 - Fixed MIDI program change messages being ignored if quickly executed
595     after each other (fixes #231).

649     a pointer to the launched InstrumentEditor object
650 schoenebeck 1876 - added optional 3rd party user data parameter for following

698     input drivers: ALSA, CoreMIDI, JACK, MidiShare, MME)
699 persson 1889 - bugfix: pitch bend wasn't working with JackMidi, VST, LV2, MME,
700 persson 1887 CoreMidi or AU
701 persson 1889 - fixed mingw-w64 compilation error in MME driver
702 persson 1924 - made program change handling in MIDI thread real-time safe by
703     moving the logic to a non-RT thread
704 persson 1951 - fixed minor memory leak in ALSA driver
705 persson 1651
706 schoenebeck 1604 * instruments database:
707 iliev 1603 - avoid time consuming samples scanning when adding instruments
708     to the instruments database
709 iliev 1727 - added support for handling lost files in the instruments database
710 iliev 1781 - Implemented option for adding instruments in separate directories
711     in the instruments database
712     (patch by Chris Cherrett & Andrew Williams, a bit adjusted)
713 persson 1908 - work-around for missing fnmatch function on Windows to make
714     instrument database compilable
715 schoenebeck 1930 - added instrument database support on Windows
716     works with both standalone mode and VST plugin.
717     the instruments DB file is located in
718     %USERPROFILE%\.linuxsampler\instruments.db which allows different
719     databases for each windows user
720     if no DB is present it automatically creates the .linuxsampler subdir
721     and then creates an empty DB
722 persson 1943 - fixed recursive import, which was broken on Windows
723 iliev 1603
724 persson 1644 * Gigasampler format engine:
725     - fixed a memory leak that could happen when a channel was deleted
726     while notes were playing
727 persson 1646 - made it possible to load an instrument even if the audio thread
728     isn't running
729 persson 1701 - added partial support for the "Controller Triggered" MIDI rule,
730     enough for piano gigs with pedal noise samples
731 schoenebeck 1715 - minor fix: only mark FX sends as being modified if really the
732     respective FX send MIDI controller was used
733 schoenebeck 1724 - added support for GM global device volume SysEx message
734 schoenebeck 1762 (can be selected at compile time to either apply globally to the
735     whole sampler [default] or only to the sampler channels that are
736     connected to the respective MIDI input port the SysEx message arrived
737     on)
738 persson 1748 - bugfix: notes triggered at position 0 in the audio buffer were
739     sometimes wrongly killed in the same buffer, causing no sound to
740     be played
741 schoenebeck 1750 - added support for chromatic / drumkit mode Roland GS Sysex message
742     which is usally used to switch a part between chromatic sounds and
743     drumkit sounds (as opposed to their common default setting of MIDI
744     part 10 being a drumkit part and all other ones chromatic parts), in
745     LS however one can switch between the first 16 MIDI instrument maps
746     defined for the sampler
747 persson 1764 - made it possible to create multiple sample channels even if the
748     audio thread isn't running
749 persson 1844 - fixed crash when removing channel with active voices (#116)
750 schoenebeck 1852 - bugfix: on sample reference changes (instrument editor), only
751     un-cache the respective sample if it's really not used by any
752     sampler engine anymore
753     - re-cache samples in case they were changed by an instrument editor,
754     e.g. when a sample was added while playing (#82)
755 schoenebeck 1857 - fixed hanging notes which occured when note-off event had the exact
756     same time stamp as the voice's note-on event and occured both in the
757     same audio fragment cycle (fixes bug #112)
758 persson 1858 - added support for the "fine tune" and "pitch bend range"
759     instrument-level gig parameters
760     - fixed minor artifacts in pitch bend handling
761 schoenebeck 1860 - added support for GS Reset SysEx message
762 persson 1862 - allow gig files to use unlimited downward pitch shifting
763     - added a limit check for upward pitch shifting
764 persson 1906 - bugfix: sometimes, when playing a note twice fast, the second
765     note was silent
766 persson 1923 - fixed crash happening when a pitch bend event arrived at the
767     same time a new instrument was loading
768 persson 1644
769 schoenebeck 1687 * LSCP server:
770     - added new LSCP event "CHANNEL_MIDI" which can be used by frontends to
771     react on MIDI data arriving on certain sampler channels (so far only
772     Note-On and Note-Off events are sent via this LSCP event)
773 schoenebeck 1695 - added new LSCP event "DEVICE_MIDI" which can be used by frontends to
774     react on MIDI data arriving on certain MIDI input devices (so far only
775     Note-On and Note-Off events are sent via this LSCP event)
776 iliev 1727 - added new LSCP commands: FIND LOST DB_INSTRUMENT_FILES and
777     SET DB_INSTRUMENT FILE_PATH
778 iliev 1771 - added new LSCP command: SEND CHANNEL MIDI_DATA which can be used by
779     frontends to send MIDI messages to specific sampler channel
780     - added two additional fields to GET FILE INSTRUMENT INFO command -
781     KEY_BINDINGS and KEYSWITCH_BINDINGS
782 iliev 1754 - bugfix: the bank number provided by MIDI_INSTRUMENT_INFO notifications
783     was incorrect
784 iliev 1763 - Optimized the retrieval of the MIDI instrument mappings
785 schoenebeck 1800 - added new LSCP command "SET VOICES" to globally alter the maximum
786     amount of voices, added new LSCP event "GLOBAL_INFO:VOICES" which will
787     be triggered respectively
788     - added new LSCP command "SET STREAMS" to globally alter the maximum
789     amount of disk streams, added new LSCP event "GLOBAL_INFO:STREAMS"
790     which will be triggered respectively
791 persson 1808 - bugfix: retry if "select" returns EINTR (this fixes a crash when
792     a gigedit file dialog is opened)
793 iliev 1848 - close all connections when LSCPServer is deleted
794 iliev 1882 - hard close of all sockets on exit
795 persson 1897 - bugfix: SET CHANNEL MIDI_INPUT_TYPE didn't work with the MME
796     driver
797 schoenebeck 1687
798 iliev 1761 * Bug fixes:
799     - fixed a crash which occurs when removing a sampler channel waiting
800     to start instrument loading after another channel
801 iliev 1826 - fixed a crash which occurs when removing a sampler channel with
802     instrument loading in progress (bug #113)
803 iliev 1827 - fixed termination caused by uncaught exception when adding MIDI
804     instrument with PERSISTENT load mode
805 iliev 1835 - fixed possible iterator invalidations when resetting the sampler
806     - fixed memory leaks when issuing the following LSCP commands:
807     GET AUDIO_OUTPUT_DRIVER INFO
808     GET AUDIO_OUTPUT_DRIVER_PARAMETER INFO
809     GET MIDI_INPUT_DRIVER INFO
810     GET MIDI_INPUT_DRIVER_PARAMETER INFO
811     - fixed possible compilation error when sqlite is not present
812 iliev 1843 - fixed orphaned pointers when setting maximum voices limit (bug #118)
813 iliev 1847 - fixed crash when changing the audio output device of a sampler
814     channel with loaded instrument and start playing notes
815 iliev 1855 - fixed endless loop in Engine::SuspendAll() (bug #120)
816 persson 1870 - fixed a low-level atomic load function that was broken on 64-bit
817     PowerPC, which probably could cause crashes on that platform
818 persson 1889 - fixed a memory management error which could cause a crash when a
819     plugin was unloaded
820 persson 1896 - bugfix: two private structs had the same name, which could cause
821     problems if the linker chose the wrong constructor
822 persson 1933 - fixed low-level ConditionServer usage bug that caused lockups on
823     Windows
824 iliev 1761
825    
826 schoenebeck 1560 Version 0.5.1 (6 December 2007)
827 schoenebeck 1454
828     * packaging changes:
829     - added autoconf checks for pthread library
830     - added autoconf check for pthread bug found on certain NPTL-enabled
831     glibc versions (see Gentoo bug report #194076)
832 senoner 1502 - added autoconf checks for MS Windows
833 schoenebeck 1454
834 persson 1455 * general changes:
835     - bugfix: the thread used by an editor plugin didn't die when the
836     editor closed
837 persson 1534 - bugfix: Ringbuffer.h: fill_write_space_with_null() did not zero
838     out all the space. operator--() did not apply size_mask after
839     decrementing the read_ptr. DEFAULT_WRAP_ELEMENTS set to 0 in
840     order to avoid problems with the _NonVolatileReader functions.
841     - bugfix: Stream.h: added a missing divide by BytesPerSample in
842     GetWriteSpace(). Since this function is currently only used in
843     the stream's qsort() compare function, it didn't trigger any
844     bugs.
845     - Resampler.h, Synthesizer.h: cubic interpolation now works in
846     24bit mode too. Faster method to read 24bit words on little
847     endian machines (x86): replaced 3 byte reads + shifts with a 1
848     unaligned 32bit read and shift
849     - experimental support for MS Windows (MIDI input via MME, AUDIO
850     output via ASIO)
851     - made handling of SIGINT signal (Ctrl-C) a bit more robust
852 iliev 1541 - support for monitoring the total number of active disk streams
853     (new LSCP commands: GET TOTAL_STREAM_COUNT,
854     SUBSCRIBE TOTAL_STREAM_COUNT, UNSUBSCRIBE TOTAL_STREAM_COUNT)
855 persson 1455
856 senoner 1500 * AUDIO driver:
857 persson 1534 - added Windows ASIO low latency audio driver
858 senoner 1500
859 senoner 1485 * MIDI driver:
860 schoenebeck 1495 - added MME Windows MIDI driver
861 senoner 1485
862 schoenebeck 1471 * LSCP server:
863     - added support for Windows style path / filenames, however with
864     forward slash path separators instead of backslash
865     (i.e. "C:/foo/bar.gig")
866 schoenebeck 1495 - allow naughty liblscp to send non-string device parameters within
867     apostrophes as well
868 schoenebeck 1525 - added new LSCP commands: "GET FILE INSTRUMENTS <file>",
869     "LIST FILE INSTRUMENTS <file>" and
870     "GET FILE INSTRUMENT INFO <file> <index>" for retrieving informations
871     about an arbitrary instrument file on the system where the sampler is
872     running on
873 schoenebeck 1471
874 schoenebeck 1424 Version 0.5.0 (15 October 2007)
875 schoenebeck 947
876 schoenebeck 1065 * packaging changes:
877 schoenebeck 1212 - config.h is not going to be installed along with liblinuxsampler's
878     API header files anymore
879 schoenebeck 1065 - only the API relevant header (and source) files will be exported to
880     the Doxygen API documentation (explicitly listed in Doxyfile.in)
881 schoenebeck 1175 - added completely new XCode project files for Mac OSX which is now
882     capable to execute our autoconf environment, thus no need anymore
883     to maintain the compile time configuration file (osx/version.h) for
884     OSX manually (patch by Toshi Nagata)
885 schoenebeck 1360 - fixed buggy boolean --enable-foo / --disable-foo configure script
886     parameters
887 schoenebeck 1424 - global.h now only covers global definitions that are needed for the
888     C++ API header files, all implementation internal global definitions
889     are now in global_private.h
890     - atomic.h is not exposed to the C++ API anymore
891     - no need to include config.h anymore for using LS's API header files
892     - fixed warnings in API doc generation
893 schoenebeck 1065
894 schoenebeck 947 * general changes:
895     - replaced the old, confusing MIDI program change mechanism by a
896     flexible MIDI instrument mapper which allows to map arbitrary
897 schoenebeck 973 (MIDI bank, MIDI program) pairs with arbitrary
898 schoenebeck 947 (engine type, instrument file, file index) triplets which will be
899     loaded on the respective channel when such MIDI program change
900     messages arrive, beside that, each entry allows to define a life-time
901     strategy for the instrument, so the user can define whether the
902     instrument should i.e. be permanently loaded (to be able to switch
903     quickly among sounds) or i.e. loaded just on demand when the
904     respective program change arrives (to safe RAM space), as well as a
905     global volume factor for each entry, so the user can adjust the volume
906     dynamic of his mapped instrument collection without having to modify
907 schoenebeck 973 the instrument files, also one can manage arbitrary amount of such
908     MIDI instrument maps and assign each sampler channel individually
909     a certain map, so that i.e. separation of normal instruments and
910     drumkits is possible
911 iliev 1108 - new notification events for tracking changes to audio/MIDI devices,
912     MIDI instrument maps, MIDI instruments, FX sends, global volume.
913 schoenebeck 990 - sampler was limited to load max. 200 instruments in the background
914     due to a constant size RingBuffer FIFO which is now replaced by a
915     dynamic (unlimited) size std::list FIFO
916 schoenebeck 1001 - added FX sends, these allow to route audio signals to arbitrary audio
917     output channels for being processed by external effect processors
918     (i.e. jack-rack), the send levels are controllable via arbitrary MIDI
919     controllers
920 schoenebeck 1005 - global (sampler wide) volume can now be controlled at runtime
921 iliev 1130 - Implemented new, improved notification system
922 schoenebeck 1149 - fixed compilation errors regarding OSX
923     (patch by Toshi Nagata)
924 iliev 1161 - implemented instruments database
925 iliev 1345 - added support for escape sequences to the instruments database
926 schoenebeck 1212 - added highly experimental support for on-the-fly instrument editing
927     within the sampler's process (by using instrument editor plugins),
928     you'll notice the new "Registered instrument editors:" message on
929 schoenebeck 1407 startup, added a new LSCP command:
930     "EDIT CHANNEL INSTRUMENT <sampler-channel>"
931 schoenebeck 1212 to spawn a matching instrument editor for the instrument on the
932     given sampler channel, the plugin path can be overridden at compile
933     time with ./configure --enable-plugin-dir=/some/dir
934 schoenebeck 1321 - added experimental code for synchronizing instrument editors hosted
935     in the sampler's process to safely edit instruments while playing
936     without a crash (hopefully) by either suspending single regions
937     wherever possible or if unavoidable whole engine(s)
938 schoenebeck 1221 - fixed several issues in fundamental "Thread" class: set scheduling
939     policy and priority on thread level, set a minimum stack size for
940     thread (TODO: a reasonable value yet to be tested), bugfix: non-RT
941     threads simply inherited properties of starting thread instead of
942     setting their own policy and priority
943 schoenebeck 1233 - minor fix in our automatic stack trace mechanism on crashes, the
944     main process did not wait for the stack trace process to finish
945     its output
946 persson 1248 - fixed some minor memory leaks
947 schoenebeck 1259 - reenabled assembly features support, at the moment only for
948     enabling a fast denormal FPU mode (x86 platforms supporting SSE2)
949 schoenebeck 1314 - minor assembly fix in x86 features detection (don't use the PIC
950     register, to avoid relocations in the text segment at runtime)
951 schoenebeck 1424 - POSIX callback functions of Thread.h are hidden
952 schoenebeck 947
953     * MIDI driver:
954     - dispatch bank select (MSB and LSB) messages
955    
956 schoenebeck 1049 * audio driver:
957     - the ALSA audio output driver parameters now reflect the correct
958     parameter value ranges for the respective selected sound card
959     (patch by Till Wimmer, a bit fixed and extended)
960    
961 persson 951 * Gigasampler format engine:
962     - if a filter is used and EG2 finishes before EG1, let the voice
963     die when EG2 has finished (this fixes a problem with clicks and
964     voice starvation for some gigs)
965 persson 1038 - playback is no longer disabled during instrument loading
966     - all notes playing on a channel that changes its instrument keep
967     playing with the old instrument until they get a note off
968     command
969 persson 1039 - EG fix: a release value of zero could cause noises or crash
970 schoenebeck 1041 - handle MIDI coarse tuning messages (MIDI RPN #0 MSB #2 LSB)
971 persson 1046 - EG fine tuning: when attack is zero the EG starts at a level
972     above max sustain level, which means that there is a decay phase
973     even if sustain is 100%
974 persson 1147 - more EG fixes: the level could sometimes go below zero and cause
975     noises or crashes
976 schoenebeck 1149 - minor fix of EGDecay (patch by Toshi Nagata)
977 schoenebeck 1181 - fixed compiler error when --enable-override-filter-type was
978     supplied to the configure script (fixes #46)
979 schoenebeck 1321 - disk thread: queue sizes are now proportional to CONFIG_MAX_STREAMS
980     instead of a fix value
981 schoenebeck 1348 - behavior fix: on MIDI CC# 65 (portamento on / off), 126 (mono mode),
982     127 (solo mode) only kill voices if the respective mode really
983     changed
984 persson 951
985 schoenebeck 1244 * LSCP server:
986     - fixed compile time error for old Bison versions
987     (i.e. v1.28 found on MacOS 10.4, patch by Toshi Nagata)
988 schoenebeck 1245 - parser now supports extended ASCII character set
989     (up to ASCII code 255, i.e. includes now umlauts and accents)
990     - filename arguments in LSCP commands now allow to use escape
991     sequences, that is directly literal as one of: \', \", \\, \n, \r,
992     \f, \t, \v, or as octal ASCII code value like \132, or as hex ASCII
993     code value like \xf2) (fixes bug #24)
994 schoenebeck 1389 - the following LSCP commands now also support escape sequences for at
995     least one of their text-based parameters (i.e. name, description):
996     "ADD MIDI_INSTRUMENT_MAP", "MAP MIDI_INSTRUMENT",
997     "SET MIDI_INSTRUMENT_MAP NAME", "SET FX_SEND NAME", "CREATE FX_SEND",
998     "SET DB_INSTRUMENT_DIRECTORY NAME",
999     "SET DB_INSTRUMENT_DIRECTORY DESCRIPTION", "SET DB_INSTRUMENT NAME",
1000     "SET DB_INSTRUMENT DESCRIPTION", "FIND DB_INSTRUMENTS",
1001     "FIND DB_INSTRUMENT_DIRECTORIES"
1002 schoenebeck 1252 - returns verbose syntax errors (line and column where syntax error
1003     occured, the unexpected character and the actually expected, possible
1004     character(s), the latter only if less than 5 possibilities)
1005 persson 1349 - made sure that LSCP syntax is not affected by gigedit locale
1006     settings
1007 schoenebeck 1379 - bugfix regarding strings parameter lists: all comma separated lists
1008     of strings were treated as being one string containing commas
1009     (fixes #57)
1010 schoenebeck 1244
1011 iliev 959 * Bug fixes:
1012     - fixed crash occurring on certain LSCP scripts (Bug 39)
1013 persson 1038 - another thread safety fix for lscp "load engine" and "set
1014     channel audio output device"
1015 iliev 1283 - fixed a crash which occurs when reassigning the same engine
1016     on a sampler channel with connected MIDI device
1017 iliev 1295 - fixed a crash which occurs when changing the number of ports of a MIDI
1018     device connected to a sampler channel to number less then or equal
1019     to the index of the port to which the sampler channel is connected.
1020 iliev 1296 - The previous bindings were not been disconnected when altering
1021     the ALSA_SEQ_BINDINGS parameter. Introduced a NONE keyword for
1022     unsubscribing from all bindings (e.g. ALSA_SEQ_BINDINGS=NONE).
1023 iliev 1297 - The active stream/voice count statistic was incorrect.
1024 iliev 1298 - notification events were not been sent for some sampler
1025     channel changes
1026 iliev 1305 - added default min and max values to restrict the number of allowed
1027     audio output channels and MIDI input ports
1028 iliev 1306 - the connection to the PCM interface is now closed when destroying
1029     an audio output device
1030 schoenebeck 1332 - files with slash in their path or filename could not be loaded
1031 iliev 959
1032 schoenebeck 1221 * test cases:
1033     - updated and fixed (haven't been touched in a while)
1034    
1035 schoenebeck 937 Version 0.4.0 (24 November 2006)
1036 persson 696
1037 schoenebeck 697 * packaging changes:
1038 capela 868 - changed deprecated copyright attribute to license; added ldconfig
1039     to post-(un)install steps; added devel package for liblinuxsampler;
1040     to linuxsampler.spec (RPM)
1041 schoenebeck 697 - install necessary development header files for allowing 3rd party
1042     applications to link against liblinuxsampler
1043     - liblinuxsampler's API documentation can be generated with 'make docs'
1044     (Doxygen required)
1045 schoenebeck 715 - added benchmark to automatically detect the best triangle LFO
1046     implementation (currently either an integer math solution or a
1047     di-harmonic approximation), automatic detection can be overriden
1048     with --enable-signed-triang-algo=x and --enable-unsigned-triang-algo=x
1049     configure script argument though (mandatory for cross-compilation)
1050 schoenebeck 829 - do not automatically pick optimized gcc flags if the user already
1051     provided some on his own (as CXXFLAGS)
1052 schoenebeck 849 - added compile time option to disable processing of All-Notes-Off MIDI
1053     messages
1054 schoenebeck 852 - added compile time options to allow disabling the various audio and
1055     MIDI drivers
1056 schoenebeck 909 - fixed automatic GCC CPU switch detection on PPC
1057     (patch by Ebrahim Mayat)
1058 schoenebeck 697
1059 persson 696 * Gigasampler format engine:
1060 schoenebeck 738 - extensive synthesis optimization
1061     (reimplementation of EGs and LFO(s), removed synthesis parameter
1062     prerendering and the synthesis parameter matrix in general, splitting
1063     each audio fragment into subfragments now where each subfragment uses
1064 persson 830 constant pitch and filter coefficients. The volume coefficient is
1065     linearly interpolated inside a subfragment, unless
1066     --disable-interpolate-volume is set.)
1067 persson 696 - fine tuning of the EG modulation parameters
1068 persson 729 - improved filter cutoff calculation by adding support for the
1069     following gig parameters: Cutoff freq (used when no cutoff
1070     controller is defined), Control invert, Minimum cutoff, Velocity
1071 persson 791 curve and Velocity range. The keyboard tracking now scales
1072     cutoff frequency instead of resonance.
1073 persson 877 - added support for gig parameter Resonance.
1074 schoenebeck 775 - fixed bug in sysex handling (patch by Juan Linietsky)
1075 schoenebeck 781 - added global volume attenuation of -9 dB (0.35f) to prevent clipping
1076     which can be overridden with --enable-global-attenuation
1077 persson 783 - EG fixes: made the length of "attack hold" stage more
1078     accurate. Release stage can now start before attack stage
1079 persson 797 ends. Cancel release didn't work when sustain was zero. Attack
1080     time now has a minimal value to prevent clicks.
1081 persson 799 - fixed pitch changes larger than one octave
1082 schoenebeck 829 - fixed EG3 (pitch envelope) synthesis which was neutral all the time
1083     - implemented portamento mode and solo mode (a.k.a 'mono mode'):
1084     all modes can be altered via standard GM messages, that is CC5 for
1085     altering portamento time, CC65 for enabling / disabling portamento
1086     mode, CC126 for enabling solo mode and CC127 for disabling solo mode
1087 persson 832 - fine tuning of the curves for volume (CC7), pan (CC10 and gig
1088     parameter) and crossfade
1089 persson 831 - added support for the "attenuation controller threshold" gig
1090     parameter
1091 persson 832 - added smoothing of volume changes caused by control change
1092     messages
1093 persson 865 - sample loop parameters are now taken from the DimensionRegion
1094     instead of the wave chunk
1095     - fixed keyswitching for v3 gigs with a number of keyswitch splits
1096     not equal to a power of two
1097 persson 877 - reimplementation of the filter algorithm. The new filter is more
1098     accurate and supports all gig filter types, including bandreject
1099     and lowpass turbo.
1100 persson 903 - real support for 24 bit samples - samples are not truncated to
1101     16 bits anymore
1102     - support for aftertouch (channel pressure, not polyphonic
1103     aftertouch)
1104 persson 922 - LFO1 behaviour fixed (dampening from max volume instead of
1105     amplifying from 0)
1106 persson 696
1107 schoenebeck 711 * LSCP server:
1108     - fixed application exit on broken pipe error (fixes bug #20)
1109 iliev 793 - fixed the notification messages delay due to lack of
1110     network activity (fixes bug #26)
1111 schoenebeck 826 - fixed parser bug which occured on space(s) within device parameters
1112     (e.g. "SET AUDIO_OUTPUT_CHANNEL_PARAMETER 0 0 SOMEPARAM='foo bar'")
1113 schoenebeck 711
1114 schoenebeck 838 * audio driver:
1115     - added aRts audio output driver (by no means RT safe)
1116    
1117 schoenebeck 775 * MIDI driver:
1118     - fixed legacy sysex code which caused dispatching of MIDI SysEx
1119     messages several times instead of once
1120 schoenebeck 906 - API extension for MIDI drivers which already supply exact time stamps
1121     for events (i.e. for offline rendering based MIDI drivers)
1122 persson 922 - added checks for bad MIDI data
1123 schoenebeck 775
1124 schoenebeck 900 * linuxsampler application:
1125     - show available sampler engine types on startup
1126    
1127 schoenebeck 705 * general changes:
1128     - support for muting sampler channels and solo mode of the same, two new
1129     LSCP commands ("SET CHANNEL MUTE" and "SET CHANNEL SOLO") and two new
1130     fields ("MUTE" and "SOLO") for command "GET CHANNEL INFO" were
1131     introduced for this, the behavior is the same like on a mixer console
1132 iliev 716 (patch by Grigor Iliev, a bit adjusted). Also added configure option
1133     --enable-process-muted-channels which can be used to enable the
1134     processing of muted channels.
1135 iliev 777 - support for sostenuto pedal
1136 iliev 779 - support for monitoring the total number of active voices
1137 iliev 778 (new LSCP commands: GET TOTAL_VOICE_COUNT, GET TOTAL_VOICE_COUNT_MAX,
1138     SUBSCRIBE TOTAL_VOICE_COUNT, UNSUBSCRIBE TOTAL_VOICE_COUNT)
1139 persson 835 - fixed some memory management errors
1140 persson 841 - fixed some concurrency problems that could lead to crashes when
1141     LSCP commands were executed
1142 schoenebeck 925 - fixed crash when instrument loading failed previously on the same
1143     sampler channel (fixes bug #36)
1144 schoenebeck 705
1145 schoenebeck 692 Version 0.3.3 (15 July 2005)
1146 schoenebeck 686
1147     * packaging changes:
1148     - fixed compilation with gcc 4.0
1149    
1150 schoenebeck 687 * Gigasampler format engine:
1151     - LFO preprocessing was performed even though the respective LFO was
1152     disabled by the instrument patch (minor efficiency fix)
1153 schoenebeck 688 - if period time of chosen audio device is too small (< MIN_RELEASE_TIME)
1154     for volume ramp downs in the same fragment (needed for current voice
1155     stealing implementation) then simply inform the user with a warning
1156     about possible click sounds and reduce the volume ramp down
1157     appropriately instead of cancelling the audio device connection
1158 schoenebeck 687
1159 schoenebeck 677 Version 0.3.2 (24 June 2005)
1160 schoenebeck 609
1161     * packaging changes:
1162     - updated autotools build files to compile on OS X
1163     (conditional compilation of CoreMIDI and MidiShare drivers)
1164 schoenebeck 617 - hand-crafted assembly optimization code can be disabled with
1165     './configure --disable-asm' (definitely not recommended)
1166 schoenebeck 654 - fixed 'make dist' rule to include all necessary files
1167     - require automake (>= 1.5) for 'make -f Makefile.cvs'
1168     (due to 'dist-bzip2' automake option)
1169 schoenebeck 649
1170     * Gigasampler format engine:
1171     - support for the gig parameters for "release velocity response" curves
1172     - fine tuning of the EGADSR envelope
1173     - volume of release triggered samples now depends on note-on velocity,
1174     note length and gig parameter "release trigger decay" instead of
1175     note-off velocity.
1176 schoenebeck 663 - revised voice stealing
1177     (fixes crash and endless loop caused by voice stealing)
1178 schoenebeck 659 - don't reset scale tuning on instrument or audio output device change
1179 schoenebeck 668 - handle key group conflicts right at the beginning of each fragment
1180     instead of when the respective voice is actually launched
1181     (fixes undefined behavior if stolen voices belonged to a key group -
1182     this case was followed by a "killed voice survived" error message)
1183 schoenebeck 669 - fixed minor issue with null/silence samples
1184     (those stole voices even though they don't need a voice at all which
1185     resulted in "voice stealing didn't work out" messages)
1186 schoenebeck 670 - don't reset volume, pan, pitch and MIDI controller values on
1187     instrument or audio output device change
1188 schoenebeck 654
1189 schoenebeck 620 * LSCP server:
1190 schoenebeck 654 - fixed some crashes (patch by Grigor Iliev, fixes #19)
1191 schoenebeck 660 - fixed LSCP event "CHANNEL_INFO" notification
1192 schoenebeck 670 (e.g. did not notify on volume changes or MIDI program change events)
1193 schoenebeck 609
1194 schoenebeck 668 * linuxsampler application:
1195     - added command line parameters --lscp-addr and --lscp-port to override
1196     default IP address and port of LSCP server
1197    
1198 schoenebeck 579 Version 0.3.1 (24 May 2005)
1199    
1200     * initial release
