8        - fixed compilation with gcc 4.3
9        - fixes for building on OS X (thanks to Ebrahim Mayat for testing)
10        - fixed configure so it detects x86_64 (#107)
11        - fixes for building with newer MinGW versions

20        plugin DLL on Windows systems failed        plugin DLL on Windows systems failed
21        - fixed memory leaks that occurred when liblinuxsampler was unloaded
22        - optimized the SynchronizedConfig class so it doesn't wait
23          unnecessarily long after an update
24        - added support for notifying instrument editors on note-on / note-off
25          events (e.g. to highlight the pressed keys on the virtual keyboard
26          of gigedit)
27        - added support for triggering notes by instrument editors (see above)
28        - be verbose on DLL load errors (on Linux)
29        - fixed di-harmonic triangle LFO implementation (this LFO implementation
30          is only used by very few systems, most pick the int math
31          implementation, which is usually faster)
32        - fixes for audio drivers with varying buffer sizes
33        - experimental support for running LinuxSampler as a DSSI, LV2 and
34          VST plugin
35        - notification events for stream/voice count statistics are now sent
36          only when there are actual changes
37        - added memory ordering constraints to improve stability on
38          multi-core and multi-cpu systems
39        - maximum voices and disk streams can now be altered at runtime
40        - fixed CPU feature detection on x86_64 (maybe fixes #108)
41        - automatic stacktrace mechanism is now turned off by default and can
42          be switched on by command line option "--stacktrace" (the automatic
43          stacktrace mechanism seems to be broken on most systems at the moment)

52        - fixed a memory management bug in ASIO driver
53        - Makefile fix: JACK_CFLAGS wasn't used
54        - JACK: use jack_client_open instead of the deprecated
55          jack_client_new
56        - added (experimental) CoreAudio driver
57    
58      * MIDI driver:
59        - added JACK MIDI driver
60        - dispatch bank select as ordinary CC as well, the user might seriously
61          want to (mis)use it for some purpose ("fixed" in all current MIDI
62          input drivers: ALSA, CoreMIDI, JACK, MidiShare, MME)

65      - avoid time consuming samples scanning when adding instruments      - avoid time consuming samples scanning when adding instruments

67        - added support for handling lost files in the instruments database
68        - Implemented option for adding instruments in separate directories
69          in the instruments database
70          (patch by Chris Cherrett & Andrew Williams, a bit adjusted)
71    
72      * Gigasampler format engine:
73        - fixed a memory leak that could happen when a channel was deleted
74          while notes were playing
75        - made it possible to load an instrument even if the audio thread
76          isn't running
77        - added partial support for the "Controller Triggered" MIDI rule,
78          enough for piano gigs with pedal noise samples
79        - minor fix: only mark FX sends as being modified if really the
80          respective FX send MIDI controller was used
81        - added support for GM global device volume SysEx message
82          (can be selected at compile time to either apply globally to the
83          whole sampler [default] or only to the sampler channels that are
84          connected to the respective MIDI input port the SysEx message arrived
85          on)
86        - bugfix: notes triggered at position 0 in the audio buffer were
87          sometimes wrongly killed in the same buffer, causing no sound to
88          be played
89        - added support for chromatic / drumkit mode Roland GS Sysex message
90          which is usally used to switch a part between chromatic sounds and
91          drumkit sounds (as opposed to their common default setting of MIDI
92          part 10 being a drumkit part and all other ones chromatic parts), in
93          LS however one can switch between the first 16 MIDI instrument maps
94          defined for the sampler
95        - made it possible to create multiple sample channels even if the
96          audio thread isn't running
97        - fixed crash when removing channel with active voices (#116)
98        - bugfix: on sample reference changes (instrument editor), only
99          un-cache the respective sample if it's really not used by any
100          sampler engine anymore
101        - re-cache samples in case they were changed by an instrument editor,
102          e.g. when a sample was added while playing (#82)
103    
104      * LSCP server:
105        - added new LSCP event "CHANNEL_MIDI" which can be used by frontends to
106          react on MIDI data arriving on certain sampler channels (so far only
107          Note-On and Note-Off events are sent via this LSCP event)
108        - added new LSCP event "DEVICE_MIDI" which can be used by frontends to
109          react on MIDI data arriving on certain MIDI input devices (so far only
110          Note-On and Note-Off events are sent via this LSCP event)
111        - added new LSCP commands: FIND LOST DB_INSTRUMENT_FILES and
112          SET DB_INSTRUMENT FILE_PATH
113        - added new LSCP command: SEND CHANNEL MIDI_DATA which can be used by
114          frontends to send MIDI messages to specific sampler channel
115        - added two additional fields to GET FILE INSTRUMENT INFO command -
116          KEY_BINDINGS and KEYSWITCH_BINDINGS
117        - bugfix: the bank number provided by MIDI_INSTRUMENT_INFO notifications
118          was incorrect
119        - Optimized the retrieval of the MIDI instrument mappings
120        - added new LSCP command "SET VOICES" to globally alter the maximum
121          amount of voices, added new LSCP event "GLOBAL_INFO:VOICES" which will
122          be triggered respectively
123        - added new LSCP command "SET STREAMS" to globally alter the maximum
124          amount of disk streams, added new LSCP event "GLOBAL_INFO:STREAMS"
125          which will be triggered respectively
126        - bugfix: retry if "select" returns EINTR (this fixes a crash when
127          a gigedit file dialog is opened)
128        - close all connections when LSCPServer is deleted
129    
130      * Bug fixes:
131        - fixed a crash which occurs when removing a sampler channel waiting
132          to start instrument loading after another channel
133        - fixed a crash which occurs when removing a sampler channel with
134          instrument loading in progress (bug #113)
135        - fixed termination caused by uncaught exception when adding MIDI
136          instrument with PERSISTENT load mode
137        - fixed possible iterator invalidations when resetting the sampler
138        - fixed memory leaks when issuing the following LSCP commands:
139          GET AUDIO_OUTPUT_DRIVER INFO
140          GET AUDIO_OUTPUT_DRIVER_PARAMETER INFO
141          GET MIDI_INPUT_DRIVER INFO
142          GET MIDI_INPUT_DRIVER_PARAMETER INFO
143        - fixed possible compilation error when sqlite is not present
144        - fixed orphaned pointers when setting maximum voices limit (bug #118)
145        - fixed crash when changing the audio output device of a sampler
146          channel with loaded instrument and start playing notes
147        - fixed endless loop in Engine::SuspendAll() (bug #120)
