2    
3      * plugin changes:
4        - LV2 Persist + Files support (patch by David Robillard)
5    
6      * packaging changes:
7        - fixed building with newer MinGW-w64
8        - Mac OS X: support the new dir for Core Audio SDK
9        - Mac OS X: fixed building outside source directory
10        - made sure all source files for hostplugins are included when
11          doing "make dist"
12        - removed empty directories left from the cvs to svn migration
13        - fixed compilation with gcc 4.6.1
14        - another "make dist" fix, for the LV2 plugin
15        - made --enable-pthread-testcancel default on Mac OS X
16        - minor Makefile fix for building lscpparser when build and source
17          directories are separate
18        - Mac OS X: made it possible to specify plugin installation dir to
19          configure
20        - Mac OS X: Makefile fix for the install-strip target
21    
22      * general changes:
23        - Refactoring: moved the independent code from
24          the Gigasampler format engine to base classes
25        - command line option '--profile' is currently disabled, since the
26          respective profiling code is currently broken
27        - Introduced support for optional environment variable
28          "LINUXSAMPLER_PLUGIN_DIR" which allows to override the directory
29          where the sampler shall look for instrument editor plugins
30          (patch by Luis Garrido, slightly modified).

32        - implemented Roland GS NRPN 1CrrH which allows to set pan per note
33        - implemented Roland GS NRPN 1DrrH which allows to set reverb send per
34          note (in this implementation of the sampler its simply hard routed to
35          the 1st effect send of the sampler channel, no matter what the actual
36          effect type is)
37        - implemented Roland GS NRPN 1ErrH which allows to set chorus send per
38          note (in this implementation of the sampler its simply hard routed to
39          the 2nd effect send of the sampler channel, no matter what the actual
40          effect type is)
41        - implemented support for internal LADSPA effects
42        - raised limit of program change queue from 100 to 512
43          (as suggested by Alex Stone)

49          dimension zones is not a power of two
50        - made round robin use a counter for each region instead of each
51          key
52    
53      * SFZ format engine:
54        - Initial implementation (not usable yet)
55        - added support for v2 multiple stage envelope generators

239        - fixed crash when deleting a sampler channel or changing engine
240          type while an instrument load was in progress
241        - bugfix: playing a note while changing the instrument could cause
242          a crash, or give "Handing back unknown region" error messages
243        - bugfix: calling SET VOICES (which Fantasia does on start and
244          refresh) could cause instruments to be unloaded

246          wrong name of destructor in AudioOutputDeviceCoreAudio.cpp
247        - Mac OS X: fixed hanging threads

251          after MIDI/audio device creation failure
252    
253    Version 1.0.0 (31 July 2009)
254    
255      * packaging changes:
256        - autoconf bugfix: the PKG_CONFIG variable wasn't initialized properly,
257          causing e.g. the libgig test to fail when
258          "./configure --disable-jack-driver" was used
259          (patch by Alexis Ballier)

266        - minor fix in configure for mmsystem.h detection on MinGW
267        - Windows: look for editor plugins and Fantasia using base
268          directory of liblinuxsampler dll (look in the same directory and one
269          directory above)
270        - configure script fix: removed unconditional use of SSE
271        - fixed building with sqlite installed in a non-standard directory
272        - when cross-compiling, don't try to create instruments.db
273        - fix for new mingw-w64 version, which has usleep
274    
275      * general changes:
276        - bugfix: on some POSIX systems instrument editor plugins refused to
277          load as we used a non-portable Linux specific struct field
278          (fixes bug #70, patch by Ronald Baljeu)
279        - fixed endless loop which occured when loading an instrument editor
280          plugin DLL on Windows systems failed
281        - fixed memory leaks that occurred when liblinuxsampler was unloaded
282        - optimized the SynchronizedConfig class so it doesn't wait
283          unnecessarily long after an update
284        - added support for notifying instrument editors on note-on / note-off
285          events (e.g. to highlight the pressed keys on the virtual keyboard
286          of gigedit)
287        - added support for triggering notes by instrument editors (see above)
288        - be verbose on DLL load errors (on Linux)
289        - fixed di-harmonic triangle LFO implementation (this LFO implementation
290          is only used by very few systems, most pick the int math
291          implementation, which is usually faster)
292        - fixes for audio drivers with varying buffer sizes
293        - experimental support for running LinuxSampler as a DSSI, LV2 and
294          VST plugin
295        - notification events for stream/voice count statistics are now sent
296          only when there are actual changes

298          multi-core and multi-cpu systems
299        - maximum voices and disk streams can now be altered at runtime
300        - fixed CPU feature detection on x86_64 (maybe fixes #108)
301        - automatic stacktrace mechanism is now turned off by default and can
302          be switched on by command line option "--stacktrace" (the automatic
303          stacktrace mechanism seems to be broken on most systems at the moment)
304        - C++ API method InstrumentManager::LaunchInstrumentEditor() now returns
305          a pointer to the launched InstrumentEditor object
306        - added optional 3rd party user data parameter for following
307          liblinuxsampler C++ API methods: InstrumentEditor::Main(),
308          InstrumentEditor::Launch(),
309          InstrumentManager::LaunchInstrumentEditor()
310        - theoretical fix: made SynchronizedConfig follow C++0x memory
311          model more strictly
312        - fixes for using large audio device buffers
313        - Windows: add the installation directory to the DLL search path
314          when loading an editor plugin (solves problems with VST and
315          gigedit on systems with other GTK versions installed)
316    
317      * audio driver:
318        - removed the nonsense audio channel constraint (which was hard coded to
319          max. 100 audio channels) for most audio drivers
320        - JACK audio driver did not offer a device parameter "SAMPLERATE" as
321          opposed to the LSCP specs
322        - bugfix: the SAMPLERATE parameter of some drivers (e.g. JACK)
323          reflected the wrong value
324        - fixed a memory management bug in ASIO driver
325        - Makefile fix: JACK_CFLAGS wasn't used
326        - JACK: use jack_client_open instead of the deprecated
327          jack_client_new
328        - added (experimental) CoreAudio driver
329        - applied old fixes to the ASIO driver that were included in the
330          previous binary release but accidentally never committed to CVS
331          (fixes #117)
332        - fixes for ASIO on mingw-w64 (iasio wrapper is not needed on
333          win64)
334        - VST: added support for sample rate and buffer size changes
335        - VST: close editor (Fantasia) when the VST is removed
336        - VST: avoid opening Fantasia more than once for each VST instance

340          stereo
341        - added channel routing, fxsends and midi maps to the settings
342          stored in the plugin state
343        - performance optimization of AudioChannel::MixTo() and
344          AudioChannel::CopyTo() methods using GCC vector exensions
345          (if available)
346        - ASIO fixes: avoid initializing the device twice, avoid throwing
347          exception when getting parameters from a disconnected device
348    
349      * MIDI driver:
350        - added JACK MIDI driver
351        - dispatch bank select as ordinary CC as well, the user might seriously
352          want to (mis)use it for some purpose ("fixed" in all current MIDI
353          input drivers: ALSA, CoreMIDI, JACK, MidiShare, MME)
354        - bugfix: pitch bend wasn't working with JackMidi, VST, LV2, MME,
355          CoreMidi or AU
356        - fixed mingw-w64 compilation error in MME driver
357        - made program change handling in MIDI thread real-time safe by
358          moving the logic to a non-RT thread
359        - fixed minor memory leak in ALSA driver

369          instrument database compilable
370        - added instrument database support on Windows
371          works with both standalone mode and VST plugin.
372          the instruments DB file is located in
373          %USERPROFILE%\.linuxsampler\instruments.db which allows different
374          databases for each windows user
375          if no DB is present it automatically creates the .linuxsampler subdir
376          and then creates an empty DB
377        - fixed recursive import, which was broken on Windows
378    
379      * Gigasampler format engine:
380        - fixed a memory leak that could happen when a channel was deleted
381          while notes were playing
382        - made it possible to load an instrument even if the audio thread
383          isn't running
384        - added partial support for the "Controller Triggered" MIDI rule,
385          enough for piano gigs with pedal noise samples
386        - minor fix: only mark FX sends as being modified if really the
387          respective FX send MIDI controller was used
388        - added support for GM global device volume SysEx message
389          (can be selected at compile time to either apply globally to the
390          whole sampler [default] or only to the sampler channels that are
391          connected to the respective MIDI input port the SysEx message arrived
392          on)
393        - bugfix: notes triggered at position 0 in the audio buffer were
394          sometimes wrongly killed in the same buffer, causing no sound to
395          be played
396        - added support for chromatic / drumkit mode Roland GS Sysex message
397          which is usally used to switch a part between chromatic sounds and
398          drumkit sounds (as opposed to their common default setting of MIDI
399          part 10 being a drumkit part and all other ones chromatic parts), in
400          LS however one can switch between the first 16 MIDI instrument maps
401          defined for the sampler
402        - made it possible to create multiple sample channels even if the
403          audio thread isn't running
404        - fixed crash when removing channel with active voices (#116)
405        - bugfix: on sample reference changes (instrument editor), only
406          un-cache the respective sample if it's really not used by any
407          sampler engine anymore
408        - re-cache samples in case they were changed by an instrument editor,
409          e.g. when a sample was added while playing (#82)
410        - fixed hanging notes which occured when note-off event had the exact
411          same time stamp as the voice's note-on event and occured both in the
412          same audio fragment cycle (fixes bug #112)
413        - added support for the "fine tune" and "pitch bend range"
414          instrument-level gig parameters
415        - fixed minor artifacts in pitch bend handling
416        - added support for GS Reset SysEx message
417        - allow gig files to use unlimited downward pitch shifting
418        - added a limit check for upward pitch shifting
419        - bugfix: sometimes, when playing a note twice fast, the second
420          note was silent
421        - fixed crash happening when a pitch bend event arrived at the
422          same time a new instrument was loading
423    
424      * LSCP server:
425        - added new LSCP event "CHANNEL_MIDI" which can be used by frontends to
426          react on MIDI data arriving on certain sampler channels (so far only
427          Note-On and Note-Off events are sent via this LSCP event)
428        - added new LSCP event "DEVICE_MIDI" which can be used by frontends to
429          react on MIDI data arriving on certain MIDI input devices (so far only
430          Note-On and Note-Off events are sent via this LSCP event)
431        - added new LSCP commands: FIND LOST DB_INSTRUMENT_FILES and
432          SET DB_INSTRUMENT FILE_PATH
433        - added new LSCP command: SEND CHANNEL MIDI_DATA which can be used by
434          frontends to send MIDI messages to specific sampler channel
435        - added two additional fields to GET FILE INSTRUMENT INFO command -
436          KEY_BINDINGS and KEYSWITCH_BINDINGS
437        - bugfix: the bank number provided by MIDI_INSTRUMENT_INFO notifications
438          was incorrect
439        - Optimized the retrieval of the MIDI instrument mappings
440        - added new LSCP command "SET VOICES" to globally alter the maximum
441          amount of voices, added new LSCP event "GLOBAL_INFO:VOICES" which will
442          be triggered respectively
443        - added new LSCP command "SET STREAMS" to globally alter the maximum
444          amount of disk streams, added new LSCP event "GLOBAL_INFO:STREAMS"
445          which will be triggered respectively
446        - bugfix: retry if "select" returns EINTR (this fixes a crash when
447          a gigedit file dialog is opened)
448        - close all connections when LSCPServer is deleted
449        - hard close of all sockets on exit
450        - bugfix: SET CHANNEL MIDI_INPUT_TYPE didn't work with the MME
451          driver
452    
453      * Bug fixes:
454        - fixed a crash which occurs when removing a sampler channel waiting
455          to start instrument loading after another channel
456        - fixed a crash which occurs when removing a sampler channel with
457          instrument loading in progress (bug #113)
458        - fixed termination caused by uncaught exception when adding MIDI
459          instrument with PERSISTENT load mode
460        - fixed possible iterator invalidations when resetting the sampler
461        - fixed memory leaks when issuing the following LSCP commands:
462          GET AUDIO_OUTPUT_DRIVER INFO
463          GET AUDIO_OUTPUT_DRIVER_PARAMETER INFO
464          GET MIDI_INPUT_DRIVER INFO
465          GET MIDI_INPUT_DRIVER_PARAMETER INFO
466        - fixed possible compilation error when sqlite is not present
467        - fixed orphaned pointers when setting maximum voices limit (bug #118)
468        - fixed crash when changing the audio output device of a sampler
469          channel with loaded instrument and start playing notes
470        - fixed endless loop in Engine::SuspendAll() (bug #120)
471        - fixed a low-level atomic load function that was broken on 64-bit
472          PowerPC, which probably could cause crashes on that platform
473        - fixed a memory management error which could cause a crash when a
474          plugin was unloaded
475        - bugfix: two private structs had the same name, which could cause
476          problems if the linker chose the wrong constructor
477        - fixed low-level ConditionServer usage bug that caused lockups on
478          Windows
479    
480    
481    Version 0.5.1 (6 December 2007)
482    
483      * packaging changes:
484        - added autoconf checks for pthread library
485        - added autoconf check for pthread bug found on certain NPTL-enabled
486          glibc versions (see Gentoo bug report #194076)
487        - added autoconf checks for MS Windows
488    
489      * general changes:
490        - bugfix: the thread used by an editor plugin didn't die when the
491          editor closed
492        - bugfix: Ringbuffer.h: fill_write_space_with_null() did not zero
493          out all the space. operator--() did not apply size_mask after
494          decrementing the read_ptr. DEFAULT_WRAP_ELEMENTS set to 0 in
495          order to avoid problems with the _NonVolatileReader functions.
496        - bugfix: Stream.h: added a missing divide by BytesPerSample in
497          GetWriteSpace(). Since this function is currently only used in
498          the stream's qsort() compare function, it didn't trigger any
499          bugs.
500        - Resampler.h, Synthesizer.h: cubic interpolation now works in
501          24bit mode too. Faster method to read 24bit words on little
502          endian machines (x86): replaced 3 byte reads + shifts with a 1
503          unaligned 32bit read and shift
504        - experimental support for MS Windows (MIDI input via MME, AUDIO
505          output via ASIO)
506        - made handling of SIGINT signal (Ctrl-C) a bit more robust
507        - support for monitoring the total number of active disk streams
508          (new LSCP commands: GET TOTAL_STREAM_COUNT,
509          SUBSCRIBE TOTAL_STREAM_COUNT, UNSUBSCRIBE TOTAL_STREAM_COUNT)
510    
511      * AUDIO driver:
512        - added Windows ASIO low latency audio driver
513    
514      * MIDI driver:
515        - added MME Windows MIDI driver
516    
517      * LSCP server:
518        - added support for Windows style path / filenames, however with
519          forward slash path separators instead of backslash
520          (i.e. "C:/foo/bar.gig")
521        - allow naughty liblscp to send non-string device parameters within
522          apostrophes as well
523        - added new LSCP commands: "GET FILE INSTRUMENTS <file>",
524          "LIST FILE INSTRUMENTS <file>" and
525          "GET FILE INSTRUMENT INFO <file> <index>" for retrieving informations
526          about an arbitrary instrument file on the system where the sampler is
527          running on
