|
- autoconf bugfix: the PKG_CONFIG variable wasn't initialized properly, |
5 |
|
causing e.g. the libgig test to fail when |
6 |
|
"./configure --disable-jack-driver" was used |
7 |
|
(patch by Alexis Ballier) |
8 |
|
- fixed compilation with gcc 4.3 |
9 |
|
- fixes for building on OS X (thanks to Ebrahim Mayat for testing) |
10 |

15 |
|
|
16 |
|
* general changes: |
17 |
|
- bugfix: on some POSIX systems instrument editor plugins refused to |
18 |
|
load as we used a non-portable Linux specific struct field |
19 |
|
(fixes bug #70, patch by Ronald Baljeu) |
20 |
|
- fixed endless loop which occured when loading an instrument editor |
21 |
|
plugin DLL on Windows systems failed |
22 |
|
- fixed memory leaks that occurred when liblinuxsampler was unloaded |
23 |
|
- optimized the SynchronizedConfig class so it doesn't wait |
24 |
|
unnecessarily long after an update |
25 |
|
- added support for notifying instrument editors on note-on / note-off |
26 |
|
events (e.g. to highlight the pressed keys on the virtual keyboard |
27 |
|
of gigedit) |
28 |
|
- added support for triggering notes by instrument editors (see above) |
29 |
|
- be verbose on DLL load errors (on Linux) |
30 |
|
- fixed di-harmonic triangle LFO implementation (this LFO implementation |
31 |
|
is only used by very few systems, most pick the int math |
32 |
|
implementation, which is usually faster) |
33 |
|
- fixes for audio drivers with varying buffer sizes |
34 |
|
- experimental support for running LinuxSampler as a DSSI, LV2 and |
35 |
|
VST plugin |
36 |
|
- notification events for stream/voice count statistics are now sent |
37 |
|
only when there are actual changes |
38 |
|
- added memory ordering constraints to improve stability on |
39 |
|
multi-core and multi-cpu systems |
40 |
|
- maximum voices and disk streams can now be altered at runtime |
41 |
|
- fixed CPU feature detection on x86_64 (maybe fixes #108) |
42 |
|
- automatic stacktrace mechanism is now turned off by default and can |
43 |
|
be switched on by command line option "--stacktrace" (the automatic |
44 |
|
stacktrace mechanism seems to be broken on most systems at the moment) |
45 |
|
- C++ API method InstrumentManager::LaunchInstrumentEditor() now returns |
46 |
|
a pointer to the launched InstrumentEditor object |
47 |
|
- added optional 3rd party user data parameter for following |
48 |
|
liblinuxsampler C++ API methods: InstrumentEditor::Main(), |
49 |
|
InstrumentEditor::Launch(), |
50 |
|
InstrumentManager::LaunchInstrumentEditor() |
51 |
|
- theoretical fix: made SynchronizedConfig follow C++0x memory |
52 |
|
model more strictly |
53 |
|
- fixes for using large audio device buffers |
54 |
|
|
55 |
|
* audio driver: |
56 |
|
- removed the nonsense audio channel constraint (which was hard coded to |
57 |
|
max. 100 audio channels) for most audio drivers |
58 |
|
- JACK audio driver did not offer a device parameter "SAMPLERATE" as |
59 |
|
opposed to the LSCP specs |
60 |
|
- bugfix: the SAMPLERATE parameter of some drivers (e.g. JACK) |
61 |
|
reflected the wrong value |
62 |
|
- fixed a memory management bug in ASIO driver |
63 |
|
- Makefile fix: JACK_CFLAGS wasn't used |
64 |
|
- JACK: use jack_client_open instead of the deprecated |
65 |
|
jack_client_new |
66 |
|
- added (experimental) CoreAudio driver |
67 |
|
- applied old fixes to the ASIO driver that were included in the |
68 |
|
previous binary release but accidentally never committed to CVS |
69 |
|
(fixes #117) |
70 |
|
- fixes for ASIO on mingw-w64 (iasio wrapper is not needed on |
71 |
|
win64) |
72 |
|
- VST: added support for sample rate and buffer size changes |
73 |
|
- VST: close editor (Fantasia) when the VST is removed |
74 |
|
|
75 |
|
* MIDI driver: |
76 |
|
- added JACK MIDI driver |
77 |
|
- dispatch bank select as ordinary CC as well, the user might seriously |
78 |
|
want to (mis)use it for some purpose ("fixed" in all current MIDI |
79 |
|
input drivers: ALSA, CoreMIDI, JACK, MidiShare, MME) |
80 |
|
- bugfix: pitch bend wasn't working with JackMidi, VST, LV2, MME, |
81 |
|
CoreMidi or AU |
82 |
|
- fixed mingw-w64 compilation error in MME driver |
83 |
|
|
84 |
|
* instruments database: |
85 |
|
- avoid time consuming samples scanning when adding instruments |
86 |
|
to the instruments database |
87 |
|
- added support for handling lost files in the instruments database |
88 |
|
- Implemented option for adding instruments in separate directories |
89 |
|
in the instruments database |
90 |
|
(patch by Chris Cherrett & Andrew Williams, a bit adjusted) |
91 |
|
|
92 |
|
* Gigasampler format engine: |
93 |
|
- fixed a memory leak that could happen when a channel was deleted |
94 |
|
while notes were playing |
95 |
|
- made it possible to load an instrument even if the audio thread |
96 |
|
isn't running |
97 |
|
- added partial support for the "Controller Triggered" MIDI rule, |
98 |
|
enough for piano gigs with pedal noise samples |
99 |
|
- minor fix: only mark FX sends as being modified if really the |
100 |
|
respective FX send MIDI controller was used |
101 |
|
- added support for GM global device volume SysEx message |
102 |
|
(can be selected at compile time to either apply globally to the |
103 |
|
whole sampler [default] or only to the sampler channels that are |
104 |
|
connected to the respective MIDI input port the SysEx message arrived |
105 |
|
on) |
106 |
|
- bugfix: notes triggered at position 0 in the audio buffer were |
107 |
|
sometimes wrongly killed in the same buffer, causing no sound to |
108 |
|
be played |
109 |
|
- added support for chromatic / drumkit mode Roland GS Sysex message |
110 |
|
which is usally used to switch a part between chromatic sounds and |
111 |
|
drumkit sounds (as opposed to their common default setting of MIDI |
112 |
|
part 10 being a drumkit part and all other ones chromatic parts), in |
113 |
|
LS however one can switch between the first 16 MIDI instrument maps |
114 |
|
defined for the sampler |
115 |
|
- made it possible to create multiple sample channels even if the |
116 |
|
audio thread isn't running |
117 |
|
- fixed crash when removing channel with active voices (#116) |
118 |
|
- bugfix: on sample reference changes (instrument editor), only |
119 |
|
un-cache the respective sample if it's really not used by any |
120 |
|
sampler engine anymore |
121 |
|
- re-cache samples in case they were changed by an instrument editor, |
122 |
|
e.g. when a sample was added while playing (#82) |
123 |
|
- fixed hanging notes which occured when note-off event had the exact |
124 |
|
same time stamp as the voice's note-on event and occured both in the |
125 |
|
same audio fragment cycle (fixes bug #112) |
126 |
|
- added support for the "fine tune" and "pitch bend range" |
127 |
|
instrument-level gig parameters |
128 |
|
- fixed minor artifacts in pitch bend handling |
129 |
|
- added support for GS Reset SysEx message |
130 |
|
- allow gig files to use unlimited downward pitch shifting |
131 |
|
- added a limit check for upward pitch shifting |
132 |
|
|
133 |
|
* LSCP server: |
134 |
|
- added new LSCP event "CHANNEL_MIDI" which can be used by frontends to |
135 |
|
react on MIDI data arriving on certain sampler channels (so far only |
136 |
|
Note-On and Note-Off events are sent via this LSCP event) |
137 |
|
- added new LSCP event "DEVICE_MIDI" which can be used by frontends to |
138 |
|
react on MIDI data arriving on certain MIDI input devices (so far only |
139 |
|
Note-On and Note-Off events are sent via this LSCP event) |
140 |
|
- added new LSCP commands: FIND LOST DB_INSTRUMENT_FILES and |
141 |
|
SET DB_INSTRUMENT FILE_PATH |
142 |
|
- added new LSCP command: SEND CHANNEL MIDI_DATA which can be used by |
143 |
|
frontends to send MIDI messages to specific sampler channel |
144 |
|
- added two additional fields to GET FILE INSTRUMENT INFO command - |
145 |
|
KEY_BINDINGS and KEYSWITCH_BINDINGS |
146 |
|
- bugfix: the bank number provided by MIDI_INSTRUMENT_INFO notifications |
147 |
|
was incorrect |
148 |
|
- Optimized the retrieval of the MIDI instrument mappings |
149 |
|
- added new LSCP command "SET VOICES" to globally alter the maximum |
150 |
|
amount of voices, added new LSCP event "GLOBAL_INFO:VOICES" which will |
151 |
|
be triggered respectively |
152 |
|
- added new LSCP command "SET STREAMS" to globally alter the maximum |
153 |
|
amount of disk streams, added new LSCP event "GLOBAL_INFO:STREAMS" |
154 |
|
which will be triggered respectively |
155 |
|
- bugfix: retry if "select" returns EINTR (this fixes a crash when |
156 |
|
a gigedit file dialog is opened) |
157 |
|
- close all connections when LSCPServer is deleted |
158 |
|
- hard close of all sockets on exit |
159 |
|
|
160 |
|

162 |
|
to start instrument loading after another channel |
163 |
|
- fixed a crash which occurs when removing a sampler channel with |
164 |
|
instrument loading in progress (bug #113) |
165 |

175 |
|
- fixed crash when changing the audio output device of a sampler |
176 |
|
channel with loaded instrument and start playing notes |
177 |
|
- fixed endless loop in Engine::SuspendAll() (bug #120) |
178 |
|
- fixed a low-level atomic load function that was broken on 64-bit |
179 |
|
PowerPC, which probably could cause crashes on that platform |
180 |
|
- fixed a memory management error which could cause a crash when a |
181 |
|
plugin was unloaded |
182 |
|
|
183 |
|
|

|
Version 0.5.1 (6 December 2007) |
185 |
|
|
186 |
|
* packaging changes: |
187 |
|
- added autoconf checks for pthread library |
188 |
|
- added autoconf check for pthread bug found on certain NPTL-enabled |
189 |
|
glibc versions (see Gentoo bug report #194076) |
190 |
|
- added autoconf checks for MS Windows |
191 |
|
|
192 |
|
* general changes: |
193 |
|
- bugfix: the thread used by an editor plugin didn't die when the |
194 |
|
editor closed |
195 |
|
- bugfix: Ringbuffer.h: fill_write_space_with_null() did not zero |
196 |
|
out all the space. operator--() did not apply size_mask after |
197 |
|
decrementing the read_ptr. DEFAULT_WRAP_ELEMENTS set to 0 in |
198 |
|
order to avoid problems with the _NonVolatileReader functions. |
199 |
|
- bugfix: Stream.h: added a missing divide by BytesPerSample in |
200 |
|
GetWriteSpace(). Since this function is currently only used in |
201 |
|
the stream's qsort() compare function, it didn't trigger any |
202 |
|
bugs. |
203 |
|
- Resampler.h, Synthesizer.h: cubic interpolation now works in |
204 |
|
24bit mode too. Faster method to read 24bit words on little |
205 |
|
endian machines (x86): replaced 3 byte reads + shifts with a 1 |
206 |
|
unaligned 32bit read and shift |
207 |
|
- experimental support for MS Windows (MIDI input via MME, AUDIO |
208 |
|
output via ASIO) |
209 |
|
- made handling of SIGINT signal (Ctrl-C) a bit more robust |
210 |
|
- support for monitoring the total number of active disk streams |
211 |
|
(new LSCP commands: GET TOTAL_STREAM_COUNT, |
212 |
|
SUBSCRIBE TOTAL_STREAM_COUNT, UNSUBSCRIBE TOTAL_STREAM_COUNT) |
213 |
|
|
214 |
|
* AUDIO driver: |
215 |
|
- added Windows ASIO low latency audio driver |
216 |
|
|
217 |
|
* MIDI driver: |
218 |
|
- added MME Windows MIDI driver |
219 |
|
|
220 |
|
* LSCP server: |
221 |
|
- added support for Windows style path / filenames, however with |
222 |
|
forward slash path separators instead of backslash |
223 |
|
(i.e. "C:/foo/bar.gig") |
224 |
|
- allow naughty liblscp to send non-string device parameters within |
225 |
|
apostrophes as well |
226 |
|
- added new LSCP commands: "GET FILE INSTRUMENTS <file>", |
227 |
|
"LIST FILE INSTRUMENTS <file>" and |
228 |
|
"GET FILE INSTRUMENT INFO <file> <index>" for retrieving informations |
229 |
|
about an arbitrary instrument file on the system where the sampler is |
230 |
|
running on |

233 |
|
|
234 |
|
* packaging changes: |
235 |
|
- config.h is not going to be installed along with liblinuxsampler's |
236 |
|
API header files anymore |
237 |
- only the API relevant header (and source) files will be exported to |

238 |
the Doxygen API documentation (explicitly listed in Doxyfile.in) |
the Doxygen API documentation (explicitly listed in Doxyfile.in) |
239 |
|
- added completely new XCode project files for Mac OSX which is now |
240 |
|
capable to execute our autoconf environment, thus no need anymore |
241 |
|
to maintain the compile time configuration file (osx/version.h) for |
242 |
|
OSX manually (patch by Toshi Nagata) |
243 |
|
- fixed buggy boolean --enable-foo / --disable-foo configure script |
244 |
|
parameters |
245 |
|
- global.h now only covers global definitions that are needed for the |
246 |
|
C++ API header files, all implementation internal global definitions |
247 |
|
are now in global_private.h |
248 |
|
- atomic.h is not exposed to the C++ API anymore |
249 |
|
- no need to include config.h anymore for using LS's API header files |
250 |
|
- fixed warnings in API doc generation |

(patch by Toshi Nagata) |
282 |
|
- implemented instruments database |
283 |
|
- added support for escape sequences to the instruments database |
284 |
|
- added highly experimental support for on-the-fly instrument editing |
285 |
|
within the sampler's process (by using instrument editor plugins), |
286 |
|
you'll notice the new "Registered instrument editors:" message on |
287 |
|
startup, added a new LSCP command: |
288 |
|
"EDIT CHANNEL INSTRUMENT <sampler-channel>" |
289 |
|
to spawn a matching instrument editor for the instrument on the |
290 |
|
given sampler channel, the plugin path can be overridden at compile |
291 |
|
time with ./configure --enable-plugin-dir=/some/dir |
292 |
|
- added experimental code for synchronizing instrument editors hosted |
293 |
|
in the sampler's process to safely edit instruments while playing |
294 |
|
without a crash (hopefully) by either suspending single regions |
295 |
|
wherever possible or if unavoidable whole engine(s) |
296 |
|
- fixed several issues in fundamental "Thread" class: set scheduling |
297 |
|
policy and priority on thread level, set a minimum stack size for |
298 |
|
thread (TODO: a reasonable value yet to be tested), bugfix: non-RT |
299 |
|
threads simply inherited properties of starting thread instead of |
300 |
|
setting their own policy and priority |
301 |
|
- minor fix in our automatic stack trace mechanism on crashes, the |
302 |
|
main process did not wait for the stack trace process to finish |
303 |
|
its output |
304 |
|
- fixed some minor memory leaks |
305 |
|
- reenabled assembly features support, at the moment only for |
306 |
|
enabling a fast denormal FPU mode (x86 platforms supporting SSE2) |
307 |
|
- minor assembly fix in x86 features detection (don't use the PIC |
308 |
|
register, to avoid relocations in the text segment at runtime) |
309 |
|
- POSIX callback functions of Thread.h are hidden |

|
- fixed compiler error when --enable-override-filter-type was |
336 |
|
supplied to the configure script (fixes #46) |
337 |
|
- disk thread: queue sizes are now proportional to CONFIG_MAX_STREAMS |
338 |
|
instead of a fix value |
339 |
|
- behavior fix: on MIDI CC# 65 (portamento on / off), 126 (mono mode), |
340 |
|
127 (solo mode) only kill voices if the respective mode really |
341 |
|
changed |
342 |
|
|
343 |
|
* LSCP server: |
344 |
|
- fixed compile time error for old Bison versions |
345 |
|
(i.e. v1.28 found on MacOS 10.4, patch by Toshi Nagata) |
346 |
|
- parser now supports extended ASCII character set |
347 |
|
(up to ASCII code 255, i.e. includes now umlauts and accents) |
348 |
|
- filename arguments in LSCP commands now allow to use escape |
349 |
|
sequences, that is directly literal as one of: \', \", \\, \n, \r, |
350 |
|
\f, \t, \v, or as octal ASCII code value like \132, or as hex ASCII |
351 |
|
code value like \xf2) (fixes bug #24) |
352 |
|
- the following LSCP commands now also support escape sequences for at |
353 |
|
least one of their text-based parameters (i.e. name, description): |
354 |
|
"ADD MIDI_INSTRUMENT_MAP", "MAP MIDI_INSTRUMENT", |

361 |
|
occured, the unexpected character and the actually expected, possible |
362 |
|
character(s), the latter only if less than 5 possibilities) |
363 |
|
- made sure that LSCP syntax is not affected by gigedit locale |
364 |
|
settings |
