* Got rid of resembling an ancient GSt misbehavior which did not pitch at
  all if an up-pitch of more than 40 semi tones was requested (I don't
  think there is any stock gig sound that requires this misbehavior to
  resemble its original sound).
* Bumped version (2.0.0.svn67).

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 schoenebeck 3082 - Removed code duplication in SFZ file loading code.
6     - Added support for sfz extension opcode 'script' which may be used to
7     load real-time instrument script file (NKSP script language).
8 schoenebeck 3095 - Implemented opcode set_ccN (initial patch by Giovanni Senatore).
9 schoenebeck 3100 - Fixed unintended volume fade-in of voices under certain conditions.
10 persson 3291 - sfz parser: allow missing space between header and opcode
11 persson 2856
12 schoenebeck 3188 * Gigasampler/GigaStudio format engine:
13 schoenebeck 3072 - Fixed clicks and pumping noise with Lowpass Turbo filter on very low
14     cutoff settings.
15 schoenebeck 3302 - Got rid of resembling an ancient GSt misbehavior which did not pitch at
16     all if an up-pitch of more than 40 semi tones was requested (I don't
17     think there is any stock gig sound that requires this behavior to
18     resemble its original sound).
19 schoenebeck 3072
20 persson 2837 * general changes:
21     - fixed printf type errors (mostly in debug messages)
22 persson 2840 - use unique_ptr instead of auto_ptr when building with C++11
23 schoenebeck 2871 - Added RTAVLTree class which is a real-time safe ordered multi-map, thus
24     allowing to sort data efficiently in real-time safe manner.
25     - RTList class: added methods for moving/inserting elements to arbitrary
26     position within a list.
27     - RTList class: added method fromPtr() for creating an Iterator object from
28     a raw element pointer.
29     - Attempt to partly fix resetting engine channels vs. resetting engine, an
30     overall cleanup of the Reset*(), ConnectAudioDevice(),
31     DisconnectAudioDevice() API methods would still be desirable though,
32     because the current situation is still inconsistent and error prone.
33 schoenebeck 2879 - Active voices are now internally grouped to "Note" objects, instead of
34     being directly assigned to a keyboard key. This allows more fine graded
35     processing of voices, which is i.e. required for certain instrument
36     script features.
37 schoenebeck 2927 - Fix: Release trigger voices were not spawned on sustain pedal up
38     (CC #64) events.
39     - Fix: Release trigger voices can now also distinguish correctly between
40     note-off and sustain pedal up events.
41 schoenebeck 2963 - All engines: Increased ramp speed of volume smoother and pan smoother
42     (while slow rate of crossfade smoother is preserved) to allow quick
43     volume and pan changes by instrument scripts for instance.
44 schoenebeck 3015 - gig/sf2/sfz: Fixed aftertouch channel pressure events being processed
45     properly and thus were ignored for certain uses.
46 schoenebeck 3018 - Added new C++ API method
47     VirtualMidiDevice::SendChannelPressureToSampler().
48 persson 3020 - windows, 32-bit: fixed potential crashes by making sure the stack in
49     sub threads is 16-byte aligned
50 schoenebeck 3054 - fixed numerous compiler warnings
51 schoenebeck 3205 - Fixed invalid (note-on) event ID being assigned to new Note objects.
52 schoenebeck 3290 - Revised fundamental C++ classes "Thread", "Mutex" and "Condition" which
53     fixes potential undefined behavior.
54 persson 2837
55 schoenebeck 2866 * packaging changes:
56     - removed unnecessary dependency to libuuid
57     (originated by libgig's usage of it)
58 schoenebeck 2884 - Automake: set environment variable GCC_COLORS=auto to allow GCC to
59     auto detect whether it (sh/c)ould output its messages in color.
60 schoenebeck 2866
61 schoenebeck 2871 * Real-time instrument scripts:
62     - Implemented scheduler for delayed MIDI events and for suspended scripts.
63     - Built-in script function "wait()": implemented support for function's
64     "duration-us" argument, thus scripts using this function are now
65     correctly resumed after the requested amount of microseconds.
66     - Built-in script function "play_note()": implemented support for
67     function's "duration-us" argument, thus notes triggered with this
68     argument are now correctly released after the requested amount of
69     microseconds.
70     - Fix: script events were not cleared when engine channel was reset,
71     potentially causing undefined behavior.
72     - Fixed crash which happened when trying to reference an undeclared
73     variable.
74 schoenebeck 2879 - Built-in script function "play_note()": Added support for passing
75     special value -1 for "duration-us" argument, which will cause the
76     triggered note to be released once the original note was released.
77 schoenebeck 2885 - Instrument script classes now exported with the liblinuxsampler C++ API.
78     - Added new API method ScriptVM::syntaxHighlighting() which provides
79     a convenient syntax highlighting backend for external instrument
80     script editor applications.
81 schoenebeck 2889 - Added new C++ API class "ScriptVMFactory".
82     - Extended parser issues to provide not only first line and first
83     column, but also last line and last column of issue (thus marking
84     the precise span of the issue within the source code).
85 schoenebeck 2902 - Reload script automatically after being modified by an instrument
86     editor.
87 schoenebeck 2911 - NKSP language grammar correction: allow empty event handler bodies
88     like "on note end on".

93     - Implemented built-in script function "change_reso()".
94     - Implemented built-in script function "event_status()".
95     - Added built-in script constants "$EVENT_STATUS_INACTIVE" and
96     "$EVENT_STATUS_NOTE_QUEUE" both for being used as flags for
97     "event_status()" function.
98     - NKSP language: Added support for bitwise operators ".or.", ".and."
99     and ".not.".
100     - NKSP language scanner: Fixed IDs matching to require at least one
101     character (i.e. when matching function names or variable names).
102     - NKSP language scanner: disabled unusued rules.
103 schoenebeck 2938 - Fixed behavior of play_note() and note_off() functions which must
104     be distinguished engine internally from "real" MIDI note on/off
105     events in order to avoid misbehaviors like hanging notes.
106 schoenebeck 2942 - Implemented built-in script variable "$KSP_TIMER".
107     - Implemented built-in script variable "$NKSP_REAL_TIMER".
108     - Implemented built-in script variable "$NKSP_PERF_TIMER".
109     - Implemented built-in script variable "$ENGINE_UPTIME".
110 schoenebeck 2945 - Implemented built-in script function "inc()".
111     - Implemented built-in script function "dec()".
112     - NKSP language fix: division expressions were evaluated too often.
113     - NKSP language fix: string concatenation operator was right
114     associative instead of left (to right).
115 schoenebeck 2947 - NKSP language correction: allow empty statements in entire language
116     (i.e. "if end if").
117 schoenebeck 2948 - Implemented built-in script function "stop_wait()".
118     - Implemented built-in script variable "$NI_CALLBACK_ID".
119     - Implemented built-in script variable "$NI_CALLBACK_TYPE".
120     - Implemented built-in script variable "$NKSP_IGNORE_WAIT".
121     - Added support for read-only built-in variables (respectively
122     handled by the script parser).
123     - Added built-in script constant "$NI_CB_TYPE_INIT".
124     - Added built-in script constant "$NI_CB_TYPE_NOTE".
125     - Added built-in script constant "$NI_CB_TYPE_RELEASE".
126     - Added built-in script constant "$NI_CB_TYPE_CONTROLLER".

128 schoenebeck 2953 - Implemented built-in script function "change_attack()".
129     - Implemented built-in script function "change_decay()".
130     - Implemented built-in script function "change_release()".
131 schoenebeck 2962 - Fixed all change_*() built-in script functions to apply their
132     synthesis parameter changes immediately in case the respective note
133     was triggered at the same time, instead of scheduling the parameter
134     change, especially because it would cause some parameter types's
135     changes either to be ramped (i.e. change_vol()) or other types even
136     to have not effect at all (i.e. change_attack()).
137 schoenebeck 2965 - Implemented built-in script function "sh_left()".
138     - Implemented built-in script function "sh_right()".
139 schoenebeck 2970 - Implemented built-in script function "min()".
140     - Implemented built-in script function "max()".
141 schoenebeck 2972 - NKSP Fix: "init" event handler was not always executed when a script
142     was loaded.
143     - NKSP built-in wait() script function: abort script execution if
144     a negative or zero wait time was passed as argument (since this is
145     a common indication of a bug either of the script or even of the
146     engine, which could lead to RT instability or even worse).
147 schoenebeck 2974 - ScriptVM: Implemented automatic suspension of RT safety
148     threatening scripts.
149 schoenebeck 3008 - Provide more user friendly error messages on syntax errors.
150 schoenebeck 3013 - Fixed NKSP parser warning "Not a statement" when assigning an
151     initializer list to an array variable.
152 schoenebeck 3073 - Implemented built-in script array variable "%ALL_EVENTS".
153 schoenebeck 3076 - Implemented built-in script function "in_range()".

160     - Implemented built-in script function "fade_in()".
161     - Implemented built-in script function "fade_out()".
162     - Fixed acceptance of wrong data type of parameters passed to built-in
163     script functions "change_vol()", "change_tune()", "change_pan()",
164     "change_cutoff()", "change_reso()", "change_attack()", "change_decay()",
165     "change_release()", "change_amp_lfo_depth()", "change_amp_lfo_freq()",
166     "change_pitch_lfo_depth()" and "change_pitch_lfo_freq()".
167 schoenebeck 3193 - Added built-in script function "get_event_par()" and implemented some
168     of its possible parameter selections.
169     - Added built-in script function "set_event_par()" and implemented some
170     of its possible parameter selections.
171 schoenebeck 3205 - Fixed a bunch of scheduler time related bugs.
172 schoenebeck 3207 - Fixed polyphonic variables not being reset to zero after usage.

175 schoenebeck 3214 - Implemented built-in script function "change_velo()".
176     - Implemented built-in script function "change_note()".
177 schoenebeck 3218 - Adjusted behavior of "change_vol()" and "change_tune()" to a more
178     intuitive behavior if used in combination with "change_vol_time()" or
179     "change_tune_time()" respectively: now tuning/volume changes are only
180     assigned (without delay) immediately to a new note if the respective
181     timing function has not been called before, otherwise the volume/tuning
182     changes are automatically faded (before, only the event's time stamp was
183     relevant).
184 schoenebeck 3221 - Implemented built-in script function "array_equal()".
185     - Implemented built-in script function "search()".
186     - Implemented built-in script function "sort()".
187     - NKSP Fix: Never suspend "init" event handlers.
188 schoenebeck 3228 - Implemented built-in script function "same_region()" (currently only
189     available for gig format engine).
190 schoenebeck 3246 - Added built-in script constant "$NKSP_LINEAR".
191     - Added built-in script constant "$NKSP_EASE_IN_EASE_OUT".
192     - Implemented built-in script function "change_vol_curve()".
193     - Implemented built-in script function "change_tune_curve()".
194 schoenebeck 3251 - built-in "play_note()" function now supports a sample playback start
195     offset with argument 3, where special value -1 means to use the regular
196     sample offset as defined by the instrument file.
197 schoenebeck 3253 - Built-in array variable %KEY_DOWN[] is now a read-only variable.
198     - Built-in variable $EVENT_NOTE is now a read-only variable.
199     - Built-in variable $EVENT_VELOCITY is now a read-only variable.
200     - built-in "play_note()" function now accepts -2 for its fourth argument
201     (note duration) which means the life time of the note shall be sticked
202     to the requested note number of argument 1.
203     - Fix: built-in "play_note()" function now returns 0 as result value if
204     -1 was passed for its fourth argument (note duration) and the respective
205     parent note is already gone.
206 schoenebeck 3255 - Implemented built-in script function "change_play_pos()".
207 schoenebeck 3257 - NKSP language: Added support for user declared const array variables.
208     - NKSP language: Raise parser warning if array variable is accessed with
209     an index that exceeds the array's size.
210 schoenebeck 3259 - NKSP language fix: Unknown characters were not handled correctly.
211 schoenebeck 3260 - NKSP language: Added support for "synchronized .. end synchronized"
212     code blocks.

214     another script handler by passing its callback ID.
215 schoenebeck 3283 - Fixed potential memory access bug and potential undefined behavior of
216     "init" event handlers.
217 schoenebeck 3285 - Print a time stamp along to each call of built-in function "message()".
218     - ScriptVM API: Added VMParserContext::preprocessorComments() which allows
219     to retrieve all code blocks filtered out by the preprocessor.
220 schoenebeck 3293 - Added built-in script function "fork()".
221     - Added built-in array variable %NKSP_CALLBACK_CHILD_ID[].
222     - Added built-in variable $NKSP_CALLBACK_PARENT_ID.
223     - Fixed potential crash when accessing dynamic built-in array variables.
224 schoenebeck 3296 - Added built-in script function "callback_status()".
225     - Added built-in constant $CALLBACK_STATUS_TERMINATED.
226     - Added built-in constant $CALLBACK_STATUS_QUEUE.
227     - Added built-in constant $CALLBACK_STATUS_RUNNING.
228 schoenebeck 2871
229 schoenebeck 3050 * Instruments DB:
230     - Fixed memory access bug of general DB access code which lead to
231     undefined behavior.
232 schoenebeck 3091 - Cleanup of instruments DB file creation and opening code.
233     - The instrument DB path of linuxsampler's --create-instruments-db argument
234     is now optional, if it is missing, then a default location is used.
235 schoenebeck 3092 - Added support for scanning SFZ (.sfz) files.
236     - Added support for scanning Sound Font (.sf2) files.
237 schoenebeck 3101 - Fixed undefined DB transaction behavior.

275 persson 2519 - enabled automake 'subdir-objects' option and moved external
276     source references (vst, au, asio) from makefiles to cpp files,
277     in order to get rid of warnings from automake 1.14
278 persson 2382
279 persson 2086 * general changes:
280 iliev 2012 - Refactoring: moved the independent code from
281     the Gigasampler format engine to base classes
282 schoenebeck 2047 - command line option '--profile' is currently disabled, since the
283     respective profiling code is currently broken
284 schoenebeck 2053 - Introduced support for optional environment variable
285     "LINUXSAMPLER_PLUGIN_DIR" which allows to override the directory
286     where the sampler shall look for instrument editor plugins
287     (patch by Luis Garrido, slightly modified).
288 schoenebeck 2121 - implemented Roland GS NRPN 1ArrH which allows to set volume per note
289     - implemented Roland GS NRPN 1CrrH which allows to set pan per note
290     - implemented Roland GS NRPN 1DrrH which allows to set reverb send per
291     note (in this implementation of the sampler its simply hard routed to
292     the 1st effect send of the sampler channel, no matter what the actual
293     effect type is)
294     - implemented Roland GS NRPN 1ErrH which allows to set chorus send per
295     note (in this implementation of the sampler its simply hard routed to
296     the 2nd effect send of the sampler channel, no matter what the actual
297     effect type is)
298 schoenebeck 2124 - implemented support for internal LADSPA effects
299 schoenebeck 2140 - raised limit of program change queue from 100 to 512
300     (as suggested by Alex Stone)
301 iliev 2223 - implemented sine LFO, pulse LFO and saw LFO
302 iliev 2296 - experimental support for per voice equalization
303 iliev 2306 - added command line option --exec-after-init
304 schoenebeck 2330 - Introduced new C++ API method:
305     EngineChannel::InstrumentFileName(int index)
306     allowing to retrieve the whole list of files used for the loaded
307     instrument on an engine channel (a.k.a. part). Some GigaStudio
308     instruments for example are splitted over several files like
309     "Foo.gig", "Foo.gx01", "Foo.gx02", ...
310 schoenebeck 2375 - Added new C++ API method Sampler::GetGlobalMaxVoices().
311     - Added new C++ API method Sampler::GetGlobalMaxStreams().
312     - Added new C++ API method Sampler::SetGlobalMaxVoices().
313     - Added new C++ API method Sampler::SetGlobalMaxStreams().
314 schoenebeck 2377 - Various "const" and "restrict" optimizations.
315 persson 2382 - all engines: add pan CC value to instrument pan parameter before
316     applying panning, instead of using two separate pan functions in
317     series (#182)
318 persson 2427 - added a lock guard class for exception safe mutex handling and
319     used it everywhere appropriate
320 schoenebeck 2448 - Immediately apply scale tuning changes to active voices.
321     - Exposed scale tuning to C++ API (along to the already existing standard
322     SysEx way).
323 persson 2452 - lsatomic.h fixes: seq_cst load and store were suboptimal for x86
324     and broken for ppc64. (Seq_cst loads and stores are actually not
325     used in LS, so the bug wasn't noticable.)
326     - lsatomic.h: added ARMv7 support
327 schoenebeck 2500 - Added support for multiple MIDI input ports per sampler channel (and
328     added various new C++ methods for this new feature / design change, old
329     C++ API methods for managing SamplerChannel's MIDI inputs are now marked
330     as deprecated but are still there and should provide full behavior
331     backward compatibility).
332     - AbstractEngine::GSChecksum(): don't allocate memory on the stack (was
333     unsafe and caused compilation error with clang 2.x).
334 schoenebeck 2506 - Bugfix: only process the latest MIDI program change event.
335 schoenebeck 2515 - Introducing the LSCP shell, which provides convenient control of the
336     sampler from the command line by providing LSCP aware features.
337 schoenebeck 2521 - VirtualMidiDevice: Added support for program change.
338     - VirtualMidiDevice: Added support for bank select (MSB & LSB).
339     - VirtualMidiDevice: Added support for pitch bend.
340 schoenebeck 2559 - Aftertouch: extended API to explicitly handle channel pressure and
341     polyphonic key pressure events (so far polyphonic pressure was not
342     supported at all, and channel pressure was rerouted as CC128 but not
343     used so far).
344 schoenebeck 2594 - Added initial support for real-time instrument scripts. The script VM
345     code is shared by all sampler engine implemementations, however only the
346     gig file format currently provides support for storing instrument scripts
347     (as LinuxSampler extension to the original GigaStudio 4 format).
348 iliev 2012
349 persson 2043 * Gigasampler format engine:
350     - implemented the "round robin keyboard" dimension
351     - fixed round robin and random dimensions for cases when number of
352     dimension zones is not a power of two
353     - made round robin use a counter for each region instead of each
354     key
355 persson 2382 - bugfix: pitch LFO controller "internal+aftertouch" was broken
356     - bugfix: filter keyboard tracking was broken
357     - filter performance fix (an unnecessary copy was made of the
358     filter parameters in each sub fragment)
359     - handle special case when pan parameter in gig file has max or
360     min value
361 schoenebeck 2396 - Exclusive Groups: don't ever stop voices of the same note,
362     doesn't sound naturally with a drumkit
363 persson 2408 - fixed EG1 modulation when attack or release is zero
364 schoenebeck 2559 - Fixed support for 'aftertouch' attenuation controller.
365 schoenebeck 2565 - Fixed crash that happened with velocity split sounds under certain
366     conditions (see also previous commit on libgig).
367 persson 2673 - fixed behaviour of filter LFO

745     after MIDI/audio device creation failure
746 schoenebeck 2275 - When creating MIDI instrument map entries with "PERSISTENT" type, the

748     took the full preloading time and on 1st program change the respective
749     instrument was completely reloaded again.
750 persson 2277 - fixed handling of rapid bank select and program change messages
751     sent to the same sampler channel (patch from the Open Octave

772 schoenebeck 2509 - ignore missing LADSPA paths without ignoring valid LADSPA paths
773     (fixes #208)
774 schoenebeck 2523 - Fixed bug in LSCP grammar definition which caused a statement like
775     "GET SERVER INFOasdf\n" to be accepted as valid statement (was so far
776     practically irrelevant, however it caused problems with the new LSCP
777     shell's auto completion feature).
778 schoenebeck 2672 - Fixed MIDI program change messages being ignored if quickly executed
779     after each other (fixes #231).

831     stacktrace mechanism seems to be broken on most systems at the moment)
832 schoenebeck 1868 - C++ API method InstrumentManager::LaunchInstrumentEditor() now returns
833     a pointer to the launched InstrumentEditor object
834 schoenebeck 1876 - added optional 3rd party user data parameter for following

857 iliev 1829 - added (experimental) CoreAudio driver
858 persson 1888 - applied old fixes to the ASIO driver that were included in the
859     previous binary release but accidentally never committed to CVS
860     (fixes #117)
861 persson 1889 - fixes for ASIO on mingw-w64 (iasio wrapper is not needed on
862     win64)

876     exception when getting parameters from a disconnected device
877 schoenebeck 1599
878 persson 1651 * MIDI driver:
879     - added JACK MIDI driver
880 schoenebeck 1715 - dispatch bank select as ordinary CC as well, the user might seriously
881     want to (mis)use it for some purpose ("fixed" in all current MIDI
882     input drivers: ALSA, CoreMIDI, JACK, MidiShare, MME)
883 persson 1889 - bugfix: pitch bend wasn't working with JackMidi, VST, LV2, MME,

898     instrument database compilable
899 schoenebeck 1930 - added instrument database support on Windows
900     works with both standalone mode and VST plugin.
901     the instruments DB file is located in
902     %USERPROFILE%\.linuxsampler\instruments.db which allows different
903     databases for each windows user
904     if no DB is present it automatically creates the .linuxsampler subdir
905     and then creates an empty DB
906 persson 1943 - fixed recursive import, which was broken on Windows
907 iliev 1603
908 persson 1644 * Gigasampler format engine:
909     - fixed a memory leak that could happen when a channel was deleted

911 persson 1646 - made it possible to load an instrument even if the audio thread
912     isn't running
913 persson 1701 - added partial support for the "Controller Triggered" MIDI rule,
914     enough for piano gigs with pedal noise samples
915 schoenebeck 1715 - minor fix: only mark FX sends as being modified if really the
916     respective FX send MIDI controller was used
917 schoenebeck 1724 - added support for GM global device volume SysEx message
918 schoenebeck 1762 (can be selected at compile time to either apply globally to the
919     whole sampler [default] or only to the sampler channels that are
920     connected to the respective MIDI input port the SysEx message arrived
921     on)
922 persson 1748 - bugfix: notes triggered at position 0 in the audio buffer were
923     sometimes wrongly killed in the same buffer, causing no sound to
924     be played
925 schoenebeck 1750 - added support for chromatic / drumkit mode Roland GS Sysex message
926     which is usally used to switch a part between chromatic sounds and
927     drumkit sounds (as opposed to their common default setting of MIDI
928     part 10 being a drumkit part and all other ones chromatic parts), in
929     LS however one can switch between the first 16 MIDI instrument maps
930     defined for the sampler
931 persson 1764 - made it possible to create multiple sample channels even if the
932     audio thread isn't running
933 persson 1844 - fixed crash when removing channel with active voices (#116)
934 schoenebeck 1852 - bugfix: on sample reference changes (instrument editor), only
935     un-cache the respective sample if it's really not used by any
936     sampler engine anymore
937     - re-cache samples in case they were changed by an instrument editor,
938     e.g. when a sample was added while playing (#82)
939 schoenebeck 1857 - fixed hanging notes which occured when note-off event had the exact
940     same time stamp as the voice's note-on event and occured both in the
941     same audio fragment cycle (fixes bug #112)
942 persson 1858 - added support for the "fine tune" and "pitch bend range"
943     instrument-level gig parameters
944     - fixed minor artifacts in pitch bend handling
945 schoenebeck 1860 - added support for GS Reset SysEx message
946 persson 1862 - allow gig files to use unlimited downward pitch shifting
947     - added a limit check for upward pitch shifting
948 persson 1906 - bugfix: sometimes, when playing a note twice fast, the second
949     note was silent
950 persson 1923 - fixed crash happening when a pitch bend event arrived at the
951     same time a new instrument was loading
952 persson 1644
953 schoenebeck 1687 * LSCP server:
954     - added new LSCP event "CHANNEL_MIDI" which can be used by frontends to
955     react on MIDI data arriving on certain sampler channels (so far only
956     Note-On and Note-Off events are sent via this LSCP event)
957 schoenebeck 1695 - added new LSCP event "DEVICE_MIDI" which can be used by frontends to
958     react on MIDI data arriving on certain MIDI input devices (so far only
959     Note-On and Note-Off events are sent via this LSCP event)
960 iliev 1727 - added new LSCP commands: FIND LOST DB_INSTRUMENT_FILES and
961     SET DB_INSTRUMENT FILE_PATH

963     frontends to send MIDI messages to specific sampler channel
964     - added two additional fields to GET FILE INSTRUMENT INFO command -
965     KEY_BINDINGS and KEYSWITCH_BINDINGS
966 iliev 1754 - bugfix: the bank number provided by MIDI_INSTRUMENT_INFO notifications
967     was incorrect
968 iliev 1763 - Optimized the retrieval of the MIDI instrument mappings
969 schoenebeck 1800 - added new LSCP command "SET VOICES" to globally alter the maximum
970     amount of voices, added new LSCP event "GLOBAL_INFO:VOICES" which will
971     be triggered respectively
972     - added new LSCP command "SET STREAMS" to globally alter the maximum
973     amount of disk streams, added new LSCP event "GLOBAL_INFO:STREAMS"
974     which will be triggered respectively
975 persson 1808 - bugfix: retry if "select" returns EINTR (this fixes a crash when
976     a gigedit file dialog is opened)
977 iliev 1848 - close all connections when LSCPServer is deleted
978 iliev 1882 - hard close of all sockets on exit

996 iliev 1843 - fixed orphaned pointers when setting maximum voices limit (bug #118)
997 iliev 1847 - fixed crash when changing the audio output device of a sampler
998     channel with loaded instrument and start playing notes
999 iliev 1855 - fixed endless loop in Engine::SuspendAll() (bug #120)
1000 persson 1870 - fixed a low-level atomic load function that was broken on 64-bit

1019     - bugfix: the thread used by an editor plugin didn't die when the
1020     editor closed
1021 persson 1534 - bugfix: Ringbuffer.h: fill_write_space_with_null() did not zero
1022     out all the space. operator--() did not apply size_mask after
1023     decrementing the read_ptr. DEFAULT_WRAP_ELEMENTS set to 0 in
1024     order to avoid problems with the _NonVolatileReader functions.
1025     - bugfix: Stream.h: added a missing divide by BytesPerSample in
1026     GetWriteSpace(). Since this function is currently only used in
1027     the stream's qsort() compare function, it didn't trigger any
1028     bugs.
1029     - Resampler.h, Synthesizer.h: cubic interpolation now works in
1030     24bit mode too. Faster method to read 24bit words on little
1031     endian machines (x86): replaced 3 byte reads + shifts with a 1
1032     unaligned 32bit read and shift

1042 senoner 1500
1043 senoner 1485 * MIDI driver:
1044 schoenebeck 1495 - added MME Windows MIDI driver
1045 senoner 1485
1046 schoenebeck 1471 * LSCP server:
1047     - added support for Windows style path / filenames, however with
1048     forward slash path separators instead of backslash
1049     (i.e. "C:/foo/bar.gig")
1050 schoenebeck 1495 - allow naughty liblscp to send non-string device parameters within
1051     apostrophes as well
1052 schoenebeck 1525 - added new LSCP commands: "GET FILE INSTRUMENTS <file>",
1053     "LIST FILE INSTRUMENTS <file>" and
1054     "GET FILE INSTRUMENT INFO <file> <index>" for retrieving informations
1055     about an arbitrary instrument file on the system where the sampler is
1056     running on
1057 schoenebeck 1471
1058 schoenebeck 1424 Version 0.5.0 (15 October 2007)

1061 schoenebeck 1212 - config.h is not going to be installed along with liblinuxsampler's
1062     API header files anymore
1063 schoenebeck 1065 - only the API relevant header (and source) files will be exported to
1064     the Doxygen API documentation (explicitly listed in Doxyfile.in)
1065 schoenebeck 1175 - added completely new XCode project files for Mac OSX which is now
1066     capable to execute our autoconf environment, thus no need anymore
1067     to maintain the compile time configuration file (osx/version.h) for
1068     OSX manually (patch by Toshi Nagata)
1069 schoenebeck 1360 - fixed buggy boolean --enable-foo / --disable-foo configure script
1070     parameters
1071 schoenebeck 1424 - global.h now only covers global definitions that are needed for the
1072     C++ API header files, all implementation internal global definitions
1073     are now in global_private.h
1074     - atomic.h is not exposed to the C++ API anymore
1075     - no need to include config.h anymore for using LS's API header files
1076     - fixed warnings in API doc generation
1077 schoenebeck 1065
1078 schoenebeck 947 * general changes:
1079     - replaced the old, confusing MIDI program change mechanism by a
1080     flexible MIDI instrument mapper which allows to map arbitrary
1081 schoenebeck 973 (MIDI bank, MIDI program) pairs with arbitrary
1082 schoenebeck 947 (engine type, instrument file, file index) triplets which will be
1083     loaded on the respective channel when such MIDI program change
1084     messages arrive, beside that, each entry allows to define a life-time
1085     strategy for the instrument, so the user can define whether the
1086     instrument should i.e. be permanently loaded (to be able to switch
1087     quickly among sounds) or i.e. loaded just on demand when the
1088     respective program change arrives (to safe RAM space), as well as a
1089     global volume factor for each entry, so the user can adjust the volume
1090     dynamic of his mapped instrument collection without having to modify
1091 schoenebeck 973 the instrument files, also one can manage arbitrary amount of such
1092     MIDI instrument maps and assign each sampler channel individually
1093     a certain map, so that i.e. separation of normal instruments and
1094     drumkits is possible
1095 iliev 1108 - new notification events for tracking changes to audio/MIDI devices,
1096     MIDI instrument maps, MIDI instruments, FX sends, global volume.
1097 schoenebeck 990 - sampler was limited to load max. 200 instruments in the background
1098     due to a constant size RingBuffer FIFO which is now replaced by a
1099     dynamic (unlimited) size std::list FIFO
1100 schoenebeck 1001 - added FX sends, these allow to route audio signals to arbitrary audio
1101     output channels for being processed by external effect processors
1102     (i.e. jack-rack), the send levels are controllable via arbitrary MIDI
1103     controllers
1104 schoenebeck 1005 - global (sampler wide) volume can now be controlled at runtime
1105 iliev 1130 - Implemented new, improved notification system
1106 schoenebeck 1149 - fixed compilation errors regarding OSX
1107     (patch by Toshi Nagata)
1108 iliev 1161 - implemented instruments database
1109 iliev 1345 - added support for escape sequences to the instruments database
1110 schoenebeck 1212 - added highly experimental support for on-the-fly instrument editing
1111     within the sampler's process (by using instrument editor plugins),
1112     you'll notice the new "Registered instrument editors:" message on
1113 schoenebeck 1407 startup, added a new LSCP command:
1114     "EDIT CHANNEL INSTRUMENT <sampler-channel>"
1115 schoenebeck 1212 to spawn a matching instrument editor for the instrument on the
1116     given sampler channel, the plugin path can be overridden at compile
1117     time with ./configure --enable-plugin-dir=/some/dir
1118 schoenebeck 1321 - added experimental code for synchronizing instrument editors hosted
1119     in the sampler's process to safely edit instruments while playing
1120     without a crash (hopefully) by either suspending single regions
1121     wherever possible or if unavoidable whole engine(s)
1122 schoenebeck 1221 - fixed several issues in fundamental "Thread" class: set scheduling
1123     policy and priority on thread level, set a minimum stack size for
1124     thread (TODO: a reasonable value yet to be tested), bugfix: non-RT
1125     threads simply inherited properties of starting thread instead of
1126     setting their own policy and priority
1127 schoenebeck 1233 - minor fix in our automatic stack trace mechanism on crashes, the
1128     main process did not wait for the stack trace process to finish
1129     its output
1130 persson 1248 - fixed some minor memory leaks
1131 schoenebeck 1259 - reenabled assembly features support, at the moment only for
1132     enabling a fast denormal FPU mode (x86 platforms supporting SSE2)
1133 schoenebeck 1314 - minor assembly fix in x86 features detection (don't use the PIC
1134     register, to avoid relocations in the text segment at runtime)
1135 schoenebeck 1424 - POSIX callback functions of Thread.h are hidden
1136 schoenebeck 947
1137     * MIDI driver:
1138     - dispatch bank select (MSB and LSB) messages
1139    
1140 schoenebeck 1049 * audio driver:
1141     - the ALSA audio output driver parameters now reflect the correct
1142     parameter value ranges for the respective selected sound card
1143     (patch by Till Wimmer, a bit fixed and extended)
1144    
1145 persson 951 * Gigasampler format engine:
1146     - if a filter is used and EG2 finishes before EG1, let the voice
1147     die when EG2 has finished (this fixes a problem with clicks and
1148     voice starvation for some gigs)
1149 persson 1038 - playback is no longer disabled during instrument loading
1150     - all notes playing on a channel that changes its instrument keep
1151     playing with the old instrument until they get a note off
1152     command
1153 persson 1039 - EG fix: a release value of zero could cause noises or crash
1154 schoenebeck 1041 - handle MIDI coarse tuning messages (MIDI RPN #0 MSB #2 LSB)
1155 persson 1046 - EG fine tuning: when attack is zero the EG starts at a level
1156     above max sustain level, which means that there is a decay phase
1157     even if sustain is 100%
1158 persson 1147 - more EG fixes: the level could sometimes go below zero and cause
1159     noises or crashes
1160 schoenebeck 1149 - minor fix of EGDecay (patch by Toshi Nagata)
1161 schoenebeck 1181 - fixed compiler error when --enable-override-filter-type was
1162     supplied to the configure script (fixes #46)
1163 schoenebeck 1321 - disk thread: queue sizes are now proportional to CONFIG_MAX_STREAMS
1164     instead of a fix value
1165 schoenebeck 1348 - behavior fix: on MIDI CC# 65 (portamento on / off), 126 (mono mode),
1166     127 (solo mode) only kill voices if the respective mode really
1167     changed
1168 persson 951
1169 schoenebeck 1244 * LSCP server:
1170     - fixed compile time error for old Bison versions
1171     (i.e. v1.28 found on MacOS 10.4, patch by Toshi Nagata)
1172 schoenebeck 1245 - parser now supports extended ASCII character set
1173     (up to ASCII code 255, i.e. includes now umlauts and accents)
1174     - filename arguments in LSCP commands now allow to use escape
1175     sequences, that is directly literal as one of: \', \", \\, \n, \r,
1176     \f, \t, \v, or as octal ASCII code value like \132, or as hex ASCII
1177     code value like \xf2) (fixes bug #24)
1178 schoenebeck 1389 - the following LSCP commands now also support escape sequences for at
1179     least one of their text-based parameters (i.e. name, description):
1180     "ADD MIDI_INSTRUMENT_MAP", "MAP MIDI_INSTRUMENT",
1181     "SET MIDI_INSTRUMENT_MAP NAME", "SET FX_SEND NAME", "CREATE FX_SEND",
1182     "SET DB_INSTRUMENT_DIRECTORY NAME",
1183     "SET DB_INSTRUMENT_DIRECTORY DESCRIPTION", "SET DB_INSTRUMENT NAME",
1184     "SET DB_INSTRUMENT DESCRIPTION", "FIND DB_INSTRUMENTS",
1185     "FIND DB_INSTRUMENT_DIRECTORIES"
1186 schoenebeck 1252 - returns verbose syntax errors (line and column where syntax error
1187     occured, the unexpected character and the actually expected, possible
1188     character(s), the latter only if less than 5 possibilities)
1189 persson 1349 - made sure that LSCP syntax is not affected by gigedit locale
1190     settings
1191 schoenebeck 1379 - bugfix regarding strings parameter lists: all comma separated lists
1192     of strings were treated as being one string containing commas
1193     (fixes #57)
1194 schoenebeck 1244
1195 iliev 959 * Bug fixes:
1196     - fixed crash occurring on certain LSCP scripts (Bug 39)
1197 persson 1038 - another thread safety fix for lscp "load engine" and "set
1198     channel audio output device"
1199 iliev 1283 - fixed a crash which occurs when reassigning the same engine
1200     on a sampler channel with connected MIDI device
1201 iliev 1295 - fixed a crash which occurs when changing the number of ports of a MIDI
1202     device connected to a sampler channel to number less then or equal
1203     to the index of the port to which the sampler channel is connected.
1204 iliev 1296 - The previous bindings were not been disconnected when altering
1205     the ALSA_SEQ_BINDINGS parameter. Introduced a NONE keyword for
1206     unsubscribing from all bindings (e.g. ALSA_SEQ_BINDINGS=NONE).
1207 iliev 1297 - The active stream/voice count statistic was incorrect.
1208 iliev 1298 - notification events were not been sent for some sampler
1209     channel changes
1210 iliev 1305 - added default min and max values to restrict the number of allowed
1211     audio output channels and MIDI input ports
1212 iliev 1306 - the connection to the PCM interface is now closed when destroying
1213     an audio output device
1214 schoenebeck 1332 - files with slash in their path or filename could not be loaded
1215 iliev 959
1216 schoenebeck 1221 * test cases:
1217     - updated and fixed (haven't been touched in a while)
1218    
1219 schoenebeck 937 Version 0.4.0 (24 November 2006)
1220 persson 696
1221 schoenebeck 697 * packaging changes:
1222 capela 868 - changed deprecated copyright attribute to license; added ldconfig
1223     to post-(un)install steps; added devel package for liblinuxsampler;
1224     to linuxsampler.spec (RPM)
1225 schoenebeck 697 - install necessary development header files for allowing 3rd party
1226     applications to link against liblinuxsampler
1227     - liblinuxsampler's API documentation can be generated with 'make docs'
1228     (Doxygen required)
1229 schoenebeck 715 - added benchmark to automatically detect the best triangle LFO
1230     implementation (currently either an integer math solution or a
1231     di-harmonic approximation), automatic detection can be overriden
1232     with --enable-signed-triang-algo=x and --enable-unsigned-triang-algo=x
1233     configure script argument though (mandatory for cross-compilation)
1234 schoenebeck 829 - do not automatically pick optimized gcc flags if the user already
1235     provided some on his own (as CXXFLAGS)
1236 schoenebeck 849 - added compile time option to disable processing of All-Notes-Off MIDI
1237     messages
1238 schoenebeck 852 - added compile time options to allow disabling the various audio and
1239     MIDI drivers
1240 schoenebeck 909 - fixed automatic GCC CPU switch detection on PPC
1241     (patch by Ebrahim Mayat)
1242 schoenebeck 697
1243 persson 696 * Gigasampler format engine:
1244 schoenebeck 738 - extensive synthesis optimization
1245     (reimplementation of EGs and LFO(s), removed synthesis parameter
1246     prerendering and the synthesis parameter matrix in general, splitting
1247     each audio fragment into subfragments now where each subfragment uses
1248 persson 830 constant pitch and filter coefficients. The volume coefficient is
1249     linearly interpolated inside a subfragment, unless
1250     --disable-interpolate-volume is set.)
1251 persson 696 - fine tuning of the EG modulation parameters
1252 persson 729 - improved filter cutoff calculation by adding support for the
1253     following gig parameters: Cutoff freq (used when no cutoff
1254     controller is defined), Control invert, Minimum cutoff, Velocity
1255 persson 791 curve and Velocity range. The keyboard tracking now scales
1256     cutoff frequency instead of resonance.
1257 persson 877 - added support for gig parameter Resonance.
1258 schoenebeck 775 - fixed bug in sysex handling (patch by Juan Linietsky)
1259 schoenebeck 781 - added global volume attenuation of -9 dB (0.35f) to prevent clipping
1260     which can be overridden with --enable-global-attenuation
1261 persson 783 - EG fixes: made the length of "attack hold" stage more
1262     accurate. Release stage can now start before attack stage
1263 persson 797 ends. Cancel release didn't work when sustain was zero. Attack
1264     time now has a minimal value to prevent clicks.
1265 persson 799 - fixed pitch changes larger than one octave
1266 schoenebeck 829 - fixed EG3 (pitch envelope) synthesis which was neutral all the time
1267     - implemented portamento mode and solo mode (a.k.a 'mono mode'):
1268     all modes can be altered via standard GM messages, that is CC5 for
1269     altering portamento time, CC65 for enabling / disabling portamento
1270     mode, CC126 for enabling solo mode and CC127 for disabling solo mode
1271 persson 832 - fine tuning of the curves for volume (CC7), pan (CC10 and gig
1272     parameter) and crossfade
1273 persson 831 - added support for the "attenuation controller threshold" gig
1274     parameter
1275 persson 832 - added smoothing of volume changes caused by control change
1276     messages
1277 persson 865 - sample loop parameters are now taken from the DimensionRegion
1278     instead of the wave chunk
1279     - fixed keyswitching for v3 gigs with a number of keyswitch splits
1280     not equal to a power of two
1281 persson 877 - reimplementation of the filter algorithm. The new filter is more
1282     accurate and supports all gig filter types, including bandreject
1283     and lowpass turbo.
1284 persson 903 - real support for 24 bit samples - samples are not truncated to
1285     16 bits anymore
1286     - support for aftertouch (channel pressure, not polyphonic
1287     aftertouch)
1288 persson 922 - LFO1 behaviour fixed (dampening from max volume instead of
1289     amplifying from 0)
1290 persson 696
1291 schoenebeck 711 * LSCP server:
1292     - fixed application exit on broken pipe error (fixes bug #20)
1293 iliev 793 - fixed the notification messages delay due to lack of
1294     network activity (fixes bug #26)
1295 schoenebeck 826 - fixed parser bug which occured on space(s) within device parameters
1296     (e.g. "SET AUDIO_OUTPUT_CHANNEL_PARAMETER 0 0 SOMEPARAM='foo bar'")
1297 schoenebeck 711
1298 schoenebeck 838 * audio driver:
1299     - added aRts audio output driver (by no means RT safe)
1300    
1301 schoenebeck 775 * MIDI driver:
1302     - fixed legacy sysex code which caused dispatching of MIDI SysEx
1303     messages several times instead of once
1304 schoenebeck 906 - API extension for MIDI drivers which already supply exact time stamps
1305     for events (i.e. for offline rendering based MIDI drivers)
1306 persson 922 - added checks for bad MIDI data
1307 schoenebeck 775
1308 schoenebeck 900 * linuxsampler application:
1309     - show available sampler engine types on startup
1310    
1311 schoenebeck 705 * general changes:
1312     - support for muting sampler channels and solo mode of the same, two new
1313     LSCP commands ("SET CHANNEL MUTE" and "SET CHANNEL SOLO") and two new
1314     fields ("MUTE" and "SOLO") for command "GET CHANNEL INFO" were
1315     introduced for this, the behavior is the same like on a mixer console
1316 iliev 716 (patch by Grigor Iliev, a bit adjusted). Also added configure option
1317     --enable-process-muted-channels which can be used to enable the
1318     processing of muted channels.
1319 iliev 777 - support for sostenuto pedal
1320 iliev 779 - support for monitoring the total number of active voices
1321 iliev 778 (new LSCP commands: GET TOTAL_VOICE_COUNT, GET TOTAL_VOICE_COUNT_MAX,
1322     SUBSCRIBE TOTAL_VOICE_COUNT, UNSUBSCRIBE TOTAL_VOICE_COUNT)
1323 persson 835 - fixed some memory management errors
1324 persson 841 - fixed some concurrency problems that could lead to crashes when
1325     LSCP commands were executed
1326 schoenebeck 925 - fixed crash when instrument loading failed previously on the same
1327     sampler channel (fixes bug #36)
1328 schoenebeck 705
1329 schoenebeck 692 Version 0.3.3 (15 July 2005)
1330 schoenebeck 686
1331     * packaging changes:
1332     - fixed compilation with gcc 4.0
1333    
1334 schoenebeck 687 * Gigasampler format engine:
1335     - LFO preprocessing was performed even though the respective LFO was
1336     disabled by the instrument patch (minor efficiency fix)
1337 schoenebeck 688 - if period time of chosen audio device is too small (< MIN_RELEASE_TIME)
1338     for volume ramp downs in the same fragment (needed for current voice
1339     stealing implementation) then simply inform the user with a warning
1340     about possible click sounds and reduce the volume ramp down
1341     appropriately instead of cancelling the audio device connection
1342 schoenebeck 687
1343 schoenebeck 677 Version 0.3.2 (24 June 2005)
1344 schoenebeck 609
1345     * packaging changes:
1346     - updated autotools build files to compile on OS X
1347     (conditional compilation of CoreMIDI and MidiShare drivers)
1348 schoenebeck 617 - hand-crafted assembly optimization code can be disabled with
1349     './configure --disable-asm' (definitely not recommended)
1350 schoenebeck 654 - fixed 'make dist' rule to include all necessary files
1351     - require automake (>= 1.5) for 'make -f Makefile.cvs'
1352     (due to 'dist-bzip2' automake option)
1353 schoenebeck 649
1354     * Gigasampler format engine:
1355     - support for the gig parameters for "release velocity response" curves
1356     - fine tuning of the EGADSR envelope
1357     - volume of release triggered samples now depends on note-on velocity,
1358     note length and gig parameter "release trigger decay" instead of
1359     note-off velocity.
1360 schoenebeck 663 - revised voice stealing
1361     (fixes crash and endless loop caused by voice stealing)
1362 schoenebeck 659 - don't reset scale tuning on instrument or audio output device change
1363 schoenebeck 668 - handle key group conflicts right at the beginning of each fragment
1364     instead of when the respective voice is actually launched
1365     (fixes undefined behavior if stolen voices belonged to a key group -
1366     this case was followed by a "killed voice survived" error message)
1367 schoenebeck 669 - fixed minor issue with null/silence samples
1368     (those stole voices even though they don't need a voice at all which
1369     resulted in "voice stealing didn't work out" messages)
1370 schoenebeck 670 - don't reset volume, pan, pitch and MIDI controller values on
1371     instrument or audio output device change
1372 schoenebeck 654
1373 schoenebeck 620 * LSCP server:
1374 schoenebeck 654 - fixed some crashes (patch by Grigor Iliev, fixes #19)
1375 schoenebeck 660 - fixed LSCP event "CHANNEL_INFO" notification
1376 schoenebeck 670 (e.g. did not notify on volume changes or MIDI program change events)
1377 schoenebeck 609
1378 schoenebeck 668 * linuxsampler application:
1379     - added command line parameters --lscp-addr and --lscp-port to override
1380     default IP address and port of LSCP server
1381    
1382 schoenebeck 579 Version 0.3.1 (24 May 2005)
1383    
1384     * initial release
