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)

45    
46      * Gigasampler format engine:
47        - implemented the "round robin keyboard" dimension
48        - fixed round robin and random dimensions for cases when number of
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
56        - added a fine-tuned v1 envelope generator instead of using the

78        - fixed a bug that could cause voice stealing to fail
79        - optimized sample lookup
80        - improved support for exclusive groups (group, off_by and
81          off_mode)
82        - added support for controller triggered regions (on_locc/on_hicc)
83        - added support for loop_mode=one_shot

126        - initial implementation of cutoff filter
127    
128      * Gigasampler format engine:
129        - bugfix: pitch LFO controller "internal+aftertouch" was broken
130        - bugfix: filter keyboard tracking was broken
131        - filter performance fix (an unnecessary copy was made of the

133    
134      * Host plugins:
135        - AU bugfix: failed to destroy its audio/MIDI devices
136        - Listen to all interfaces on Mac OS X (INADDR_ANY)
137        - VST bugfix: If the host called resume() before and after
138          changing sample rate or block size, the number of channels was
139          incorrectly set to two. This caused silence in Cubase 5.
140        - save engine type (gig, sfz or sf2) in plugin state
141        - VST: when opening Fantasia, look for both 32 and 64 bit Java on

146        - AU: link AU plugin dynamically if --disable-shared isn't
147          specified
148    
149      * MIDI driver:
150        - ALSA MIDI driver supports now "NAME" device parameter, for overriding
151          the ALSA sequencer client name
152        - removed limit of maximum amount of MIDI ports per MIDI device, since
153          there is no reason for this limit
154    
155      * audio driver:
156        - ASIO driver fixes for newer gcc versions (fix from PortAudio)
157

195      * Bug fixes:
196        - Fixed crash which may occur when MIDI key + transpose is out of range
197        - minor valgrind fixes
198        - fixed crash which occurred when changing an already deployed sampler
199          channel to a different engine type
200        - fixed crash when deleting a sampler channel or changing engine
201          type while an instrument load was in progress
202        - bugfix: playing a note while changing the instrument could cause
203          a crash, or give "Handing back unknown region" error messages
204        - bugfix: calling SET VOICES (which Fantasia does on start and
205          refresh) could cause instruments to be unloaded
206        - Mac OS X: fixed name collision of enum in EffectControl and
207          wrong name of destructor in AudioOutputDeviceCoreAudio.cpp
208        - Mac OS X: fixed hanging threads
209        - Windows: disabled the previous thread fix on non-Mac systems, as
210          it caused hanging threads on Windows
211        - Fixed possible crashes due to corrupted MIDI/audio device list
212          after MIDI/audio device creation failure
213    
214    Version 1.0.0 (31 July 2009)
215    
216      * packaging changes:
217        - autoconf bugfix: the PKG_CONFIG variable wasn't initialized properly,
218          causing e.g. the libgig test to fail when
219          "./configure --disable-jack-driver" was used
220          (patch by Alexis Ballier)
221        - fixed compilation with gcc 4.3
222        - fixes for building on OS X (thanks to Ebrahim Mayat for testing)
223        - fixed configure so it detects x86_64 (#107)
224        - fixes for building with newer MinGW versions
225        - fix for building with bison 2.4 (#111)
226        - fixed building with libgig installed in a non-standard directory
227        - minor fix in configure for mmsystem.h detection on MinGW
228        - Windows: look for editor plugins and Fantasia using base
229          directory of liblinuxsampler dll (look in the same directory and one
230          directory above)
231        - configure script fix: removed unconditional use of SSE
232        - fixed building with sqlite installed in a non-standard directory
233        - when cross-compiling, don't try to create instruments.db
234        - fix for new mingw-w64 version, which has usleep
235    
236      * general changes:
237        - bugfix: on some POSIX systems instrument editor plugins refused to
238          load as we used a non-portable Linux specific struct field
239          (fixes bug #70, patch by Ronald Baljeu)
240        - fixed endless loop which occured when loading an instrument editor
241          plugin DLL on Windows systems failed
242        - fixed memory leaks that occurred when liblinuxsampler was unloaded
243        - optimized the SynchronizedConfig class so it doesn't wait
244          unnecessarily long after an update
245        - added support for notifying instrument editors on note-on / note-off
246          events (e.g. to highlight the pressed keys on the virtual keyboard
247          of gigedit)
248        - added support for triggering notes by instrument editors (see above)
249        - be verbose on DLL load errors (on Linux)
250        - fixed di-harmonic triangle LFO implementation (this LFO implementation
251          is only used by very few systems, most pick the int math
252          implementation, which is usually faster)
253        - fixes for audio drivers with varying buffer sizes
254        - experimental support for running LinuxSampler as a DSSI, LV2 and
255          VST plugin
256        - notification events for stream/voice count statistics are now sent
257          only when there are actual changes
258        - added memory ordering constraints to improve stability on
259          multi-core and multi-cpu systems
260        - maximum voices and disk streams can now be altered at runtime
261        - fixed CPU feature detection on x86_64 (maybe fixes #108)
262        - automatic stacktrace mechanism is now turned off by default and can
263          be switched on by command line option "--stacktrace" (the automatic
264          stacktrace mechanism seems to be broken on most systems at the moment)
265        - C++ API method InstrumentManager::LaunchInstrumentEditor() now returns
266          a pointer to the launched InstrumentEditor object
267        - added optional 3rd party user data parameter for following
268          liblinuxsampler C++ API methods: InstrumentEditor::Main(),
269          InstrumentEditor::Launch(),
270          InstrumentManager::LaunchInstrumentEditor()
271        - theoretical fix: made SynchronizedConfig follow C++0x memory
272          model more strictly
273        - fixes for using large audio device buffers
274        - Windows: add the installation directory to the DLL search path
275          when loading an editor plugin (solves problems with VST and
276          gigedit on systems with other GTK versions installed)
277    
278      * audio driver:
279        - removed the nonsense audio channel constraint (which was hard coded to
280          max. 100 audio channels) for most audio drivers
281        - JACK audio driver did not offer a device parameter "SAMPLERATE" as
282          opposed to the LSCP specs
283        - bugfix: the SAMPLERATE parameter of some drivers (e.g. JACK)
284          reflected the wrong value
285        - fixed a memory management bug in ASIO driver
286        - Makefile fix: JACK_CFLAGS wasn't used
287        - JACK: use jack_client_open instead of the deprecated
288          jack_client_new
289        - added (experimental) CoreAudio driver
290        - applied old fixes to the ASIO driver that were included in the
291          previous binary release but accidentally never committed to CVS
292          (fixes #117)
293        - fixes for ASIO on mingw-w64 (iasio wrapper is not needed on
294          win64)
295        - VST: added support for sample rate and buffer size changes
296        - VST: close editor (Fantasia) when the VST is removed
297        - VST: avoid opening Fantasia more than once for each VST instance
298        - VST: export main function as "main" on Linux too (fix for
299          energyXT)
300        - VST: changed number of output channels from one stereo to 16
301          stereo
302        - added channel routing, fxsends and midi maps to the settings
303          stored in the plugin state
304        - performance optimization of AudioChannel::MixTo() and
305          AudioChannel::CopyTo() methods using GCC vector exensions
306          (if available)
307        - ASIO fixes: avoid initializing the device twice, avoid throwing
308          exception when getting parameters from a disconnected device
309    
310      * MIDI driver:
311        - added JACK MIDI driver
312        - dispatch bank select as ordinary CC as well, the user might seriously
313          want to (mis)use it for some purpose ("fixed" in all current MIDI
314          input drivers: ALSA, CoreMIDI, JACK, MidiShare, MME)
315        - bugfix: pitch bend wasn't working with JackMidi, VST, LV2, MME,
316          CoreMidi or AU
317        - fixed mingw-w64 compilation error in MME driver
318        - made program change handling in MIDI thread real-time safe by
319          moving the logic to a non-RT thread
320        - fixed minor memory leak in ALSA driver
321    
322      * instruments database:
323        - avoid time consuming samples scanning when adding instruments
324          to the instruments database
325        - added support for handling lost files in the instruments database
326        - Implemented option for adding instruments in separate directories
327          in the instruments database
328          (patch by Chris Cherrett & Andrew Williams, a bit adjusted)
329        - work-around for missing fnmatch function on Windows to make
330          instrument database compilable
331        - added instrument database support on Windows
332          works with both standalone mode and VST plugin.
333          the instruments DB file is located in
334          %USERPROFILE%\.linuxsampler\instruments.db which allows different
335          databases for each windows user
336          if no DB is present it automatically creates the .linuxsampler subdir
337          and then creates an empty DB
338        - fixed recursive import, which was broken on Windows
339    
340      * Gigasampler format engine:
341        - fixed a memory leak that could happen when a channel was deleted
342          while notes were playing
343        - made it possible to load an instrument even if the audio thread
344          isn't running
345        - added partial support for the "Controller Triggered" MIDI rule,
346          enough for piano gigs with pedal noise samples
347        - minor fix: only mark FX sends as being modified if really the
348          respective FX send MIDI controller was used
349        - added support for GM global device volume SysEx message
350          (can be selected at compile time to either apply globally to the
351          whole sampler [default] or only to the sampler channels that are
352          connected to the respective MIDI input port the SysEx message arrived
353          on)
354        - bugfix: notes triggered at position 0 in the audio buffer were
355          sometimes wrongly killed in the same buffer, causing no sound to
356          be played
357        - added support for chromatic / drumkit mode Roland GS Sysex message
358          which is usally used to switch a part between chromatic sounds and
359          drumkit sounds (as opposed to their common default setting of MIDI
360          part 10 being a drumkit part and all other ones chromatic parts), in
361          LS however one can switch between the first 16 MIDI instrument maps
362          defined for the sampler
363        - made it possible to create multiple sample channels even if the
364          audio thread isn't running
365        - fixed crash when removing channel with active voices (#116)
366        - bugfix: on sample reference changes (instrument editor), only
367          un-cache the respective sample if it's really not used by any
368          sampler engine anymore
369        - re-cache samples in case they were changed by an instrument editor,
370          e.g. when a sample was added while playing (#82)
371        - fixed hanging notes which occured when note-off event had the exact
372          same time stamp as the voice's note-on event and occured both in the
373          same audio fragment cycle (fixes bug #112)
374        - added support for the "fine tune" and "pitch bend range"
375          instrument-level gig parameters
376        - fixed minor artifacts in pitch bend handling
377        - added support for GS Reset SysEx message
378        - allow gig files to use unlimited downward pitch shifting
379        - added a limit check for upward pitch shifting
380        - bugfix: sometimes, when playing a note twice fast, the second
381          note was silent
382        - fixed crash happening when a pitch bend event arrived at the
383          same time a new instrument was loading
384    
385      * LSCP server:
386        - added new LSCP event "CHANNEL_MIDI" which can be used by frontends to
387          react on MIDI data arriving on certain sampler channels (so far only
388          Note-On and Note-Off events are sent via this LSCP event)
389        - added new LSCP event "DEVICE_MIDI" which can be used by frontends to
390          react on MIDI data arriving on certain MIDI input devices (so far only
391          Note-On and Note-Off events are sent via this LSCP event)
392        - added new LSCP commands: FIND LOST DB_INSTRUMENT_FILES and
393          SET DB_INSTRUMENT FILE_PATH
394        - added new LSCP command: SEND CHANNEL MIDI_DATA which can be used by
395          frontends to send MIDI messages to specific sampler channel
396        - added two additional fields to GET FILE INSTRUMENT INFO command -
397          KEY_BINDINGS and KEYSWITCH_BINDINGS
398        - bugfix: the bank number provided by MIDI_INSTRUMENT_INFO notifications
399          was incorrect
400        - Optimized the retrieval of the MIDI instrument mappings
401        - added new LSCP command "SET VOICES" to globally alter the maximum
402          amount of voices, added new LSCP event "GLOBAL_INFO:VOICES" which will
403          be triggered respectively
404        - added new LSCP command "SET STREAMS" to globally alter the maximum
405          amount of disk streams, added new LSCP event "GLOBAL_INFO:STREAMS"
406          which will be triggered respectively
407        - bugfix: retry if "select" returns EINTR (this fixes a crash when
408          a gigedit file dialog is opened)
409        - close all connections when LSCPServer is deleted
410        - hard close of all sockets on exit
411        - bugfix: SET CHANNEL MIDI_INPUT_TYPE didn't work with the MME
412          driver
413    
414      * Bug fixes:
415        - fixed a crash which occurs when removing a sampler channel waiting
416          to start instrument loading after another channel
417        - fixed a crash which occurs when removing a sampler channel with
418          instrument loading in progress (bug #113)
419        - fixed termination caused by uncaught exception when adding MIDI
420          instrument with PERSISTENT load mode
421        - fixed possible iterator invalidations when resetting the sampler
422        - fixed memory leaks when issuing the following LSCP commands:
423          GET AUDIO_OUTPUT_DRIVER INFO
424          GET AUDIO_OUTPUT_DRIVER_PARAMETER INFO
425          GET MIDI_INPUT_DRIVER INFO
426          GET MIDI_INPUT_DRIVER_PARAMETER INFO
427        - fixed possible compilation error when sqlite is not present
428        - fixed orphaned pointers when setting maximum voices limit (bug #118)
429        - fixed crash when changing the audio output device of a sampler
430          channel with loaded instrument and start playing notes
431        - fixed endless loop in Engine::SuspendAll() (bug #120)
432        - fixed a low-level atomic load function that was broken on 64-bit
433          PowerPC, which probably could cause crashes on that platform
434        - fixed a memory management error which could cause a crash when a
435          plugin was unloaded
436        - bugfix: two private structs had the same name, which could cause
437          problems if the linker chose the wrong constructor
438        - fixed low-level ConditionServer usage bug that caused lockups on
439          Windows
440    
441    
442    Version 0.5.1 (6 December 2007)
443    
444      * packaging changes:
445        - added autoconf checks for pthread library
446        - added autoconf check for pthread bug found on certain NPTL-enabled
447          glibc versions (see Gentoo bug report #194076)
448        - added autoconf checks for MS Windows
449    
450      * general changes:
451        - bugfix: the thread used by an editor plugin didn't die when the
452          editor closed
453        - bugfix: Ringbuffer.h: fill_write_space_with_null() did not zero
454          out all the space. operator--() did not apply size_mask after
455          decrementing the read_ptr. DEFAULT_WRAP_ELEMENTS set to 0 in
456          order to avoid problems with the _NonVolatileReader functions.
457        - bugfix: Stream.h: added a missing divide by BytesPerSample in
458          GetWriteSpace(). Since this function is currently only used in
459          the stream's qsort() compare function, it didn't trigger any
460          bugs.
461        - Resampler.h, Synthesizer.h: cubic interpolation now works in
462          24bit mode too. Faster method to read 24bit words on little
463          endian machines (x86): replaced 3 byte reads + shifts with a 1
464          unaligned 32bit read and shift
465        - experimental support for MS Windows (MIDI input via MME, AUDIO
466          output via ASIO)
467        - made handling of SIGINT signal (Ctrl-C) a bit more robust
468        - support for monitoring the total number of active disk streams
469          (new LSCP commands: GET TOTAL_STREAM_COUNT,
470          SUBSCRIBE TOTAL_STREAM_COUNT, UNSUBSCRIBE TOTAL_STREAM_COUNT)
471    
472      * AUDIO driver:
473        - added Windows ASIO low latency audio driver
474    
475      * MIDI driver:
476        - added MME Windows MIDI driver
477    
478      * LSCP server:
479        - added support for Windows style path / filenames, however with
480          forward slash path separators instead of backslash
481          (i.e. "C:/foo/bar.gig")
482        - allow naughty liblscp to send non-string device parameters within
483          apostrophes as well
484        - added new LSCP commands: "GET FILE INSTRUMENTS <file>",
485          "LIST FILE INSTRUMENTS <file>" and
486          "GET FILE INSTRUMENT INFO <file> <index>" for retrieving informations
487          about an arbitrary instrument file on the system where the sampler is
488          running on
