|
* general changes: |
4 |
|
- replaced the old, confusing MIDI program change mechanism by a |
5 |
|
flexible MIDI instrument mapper which allows to map arbitrary |
6 |
|
(MIDI bank, MIDI program) pairs with arbitrary |
7 |
|
(engine type, instrument file, file index) triplets which will be |
8 |
|
loaded on the respective channel when such MIDI program change |
9 |
|
messages arrive, beside that, each entry allows to define a life-time |
10 |
|
strategy for the instrument, so the user can define whether the |
11 |
|
instrument should i.e. be permanently loaded (to be able to switch |
12 |
|
quickly among sounds) or i.e. loaded just on demand when the |
13 |
|
respective program change arrives (to safe RAM space), as well as a |
14 |
|
global volume factor for each entry, so the user can adjust the volume |
15 |
|
dynamic of his mapped instrument collection without having to modify |
16 |
|
the instrument files, also one can manage arbitrary amount of such |
17 |
|
MIDI instrument maps and assign each sampler channel individually |
18 |
|
a certain map, so that i.e. separation of normal instruments and |
19 |
|
drumkits is possible |
20 |
|
- new notification events for tracking audio/MIDI device changes, |
21 |
|
MIDI instrument map changes and MIDI instrument changes |
22 |
|
- sampler was limited to load max. 200 instruments in the background |
23 |
|
due to a constant size RingBuffer FIFO which is now replaced by a |
24 |
|
dynamic (unlimited) size std::list FIFO |
25 |
|
- added FX sends, these allow to route audio signals to arbitrary audio |
26 |
|
output channels for being processed by external effect processors |
27 |
|
(i.e. jack-rack), the send levels are controllable via arbitrary MIDI |
28 |
|
controllers |
29 |
|
- global (sampler wide) volume can now be controlled at runtime |
30 |
|
|
31 |
|
* MIDI driver: |
32 |
|
- dispatch bank select (MSB and LSB) messages |
33 |
|
|
34 |
|
* Gigasampler format engine: |
35 |
|
- if a filter is used and EG2 finishes before EG1, let the voice |
36 |
|
die when EG2 has finished (this fixes a problem with clicks and |
37 |
|
voice starvation for some gigs) |
38 |
|
- playback is no longer disabled during instrument loading |
39 |
|
- all notes playing on a channel that changes its instrument keep |
40 |
|
playing with the old instrument until they get a note off |
41 |
|
command |
42 |
|
- EG fix: a release value of zero could cause noises or crash |
43 |
|
- handle MIDI coarse tuning messages (MIDI RPN #0 MSB #2 LSB) |
44 |
|
|
45 |
|
* Bug fixes: |
46 |
|
- fixed crash occurring on certain LSCP scripts (Bug 39) |
47 |
|
- another thread safety fix for lscp "load engine" and "set |
48 |
|
channel audio output device" |
