70        - added (experimental) CoreAudio driver
71        - applied old fixes to the ASIO driver that were included in the
72          previous binary release but accidentally never committed to CVS
73          (fixes #117)
74        - fixes for ASIO on mingw-w64 (iasio wrapper is not needed on
75          win64)

83        - added channel routing, fxsends and midi maps to the settings
84          stored in the plugin state
85    
86    * MIDI driver:    * MIDI driver:
87      - added JACK MIDI driver      - added JACK MIDI driver
88        - dispatch bank select as ordinary CC as well, the user might seriously
89          want to (mis)use it for some purpose ("fixed" in all current MIDI
90          input drivers: ALSA, CoreMIDI, JACK, MidiShare, MME)
91        - bugfix: pitch bend wasn't working with JackMidi, VST, LV2, MME,
92          CoreMidi or AU
93        - fixed mingw-w64 compilation error in MME driver
94

96      - avoid time consuming samples scanning when adding instruments      - avoid time consuming samples scanning when adding instruments
97        to the instruments database        to the instruments database
98        - added support for handling lost files in the instruments database
99        - Implemented option for adding instruments in separate directories
100          in the instruments database
101          (patch by Chris Cherrett & Andrew Williams, a bit adjusted)
102        - work-around for missing fnmatch function on Windows to make
103          instrument database compilable
104            - added instrument database support on Windows
105              works with both standalone mode and VST plugin.
106              the instruments DB file is located in
107              %USERPROFILE%\.linuxsampler\instruments.db which allows different
108              databases for each windows user
109              if no DB is present it automatically creates the .linuxsampler subdir
110              and then creates an empty DB
111    
112    * Gigasampler format engine:    * Gigasampler format engine:
113      - fixed a memory leak that could happen when a channel was deleted      - fixed a memory leak that could happen when a channel was deleted
114        while notes were playing        while notes were playing
115      - made it possible to load an instrument even if the audio thread      - made it possible to load an instrument even if the audio thread
116        isn't running        isn't running
117        - added partial support for the "Controller Triggered" MIDI rule,
118          enough for piano gigs with pedal noise samples
119        - minor fix: only mark FX sends as being modified if really the
120          respective FX send MIDI controller was used
121        - added support for GM global device volume SysEx message
122          (can be selected at compile time to either apply globally to the
123          whole sampler [default] or only to the sampler channels that are
124          connected to the respective MIDI input port the SysEx message arrived
125          on)
126        - bugfix: notes triggered at position 0 in the audio buffer were
127          sometimes wrongly killed in the same buffer, causing no sound to
128          be played
129        - added support for chromatic / drumkit mode Roland GS Sysex message
130          which is usally used to switch a part between chromatic sounds and
131          drumkit sounds (as opposed to their common default setting of MIDI
132          part 10 being a drumkit part and all other ones chromatic parts), in
133          LS however one can switch between the first 16 MIDI instrument maps
134          defined for the sampler
135        - made it possible to create multiple sample channels even if the
136          audio thread isn't running
137        - fixed crash when removing channel with active voices (#116)
138        - bugfix: on sample reference changes (instrument editor), only
139          un-cache the respective sample if it's really not used by any
140          sampler engine anymore
141        - re-cache samples in case they were changed by an instrument editor,
142          e.g. when a sample was added while playing (#82)
143        - fixed hanging notes which occured when note-off event had the exact
144          same time stamp as the voice's note-on event and occured both in the
145          same audio fragment cycle (fixes bug #112)
146        - added support for the "fine tune" and "pitch bend range"
147          instrument-level gig parameters
148        - fixed minor artifacts in pitch bend handling
149        - added support for GS Reset SysEx message
150        - allow gig files to use unlimited downward pitch shifting
151        - added a limit check for upward pitch shifting
152        - bugfix: sometimes, when playing a note twice fast, the second
153          note was silent
154        - fixed crash happening when a pitch bend event arrived at the
155          same time a new instrument was loading
156    
157      * LSCP server:
158        - added new LSCP event "CHANNEL_MIDI" which can be used by frontends to
159          react on MIDI data arriving on certain sampler channels (so far only
160          Note-On and Note-Off events are sent via this LSCP event)
161        - added new LSCP event "DEVICE_MIDI" which can be used by frontends to
162          react on MIDI data arriving on certain MIDI input devices (so far only
163          Note-On and Note-Off events are sent via this LSCP event)
164        - added new LSCP commands: FIND LOST DB_INSTRUMENT_FILES and
165          SET DB_INSTRUMENT FILE_PATH
166        - added new LSCP command: SEND CHANNEL MIDI_DATA which can be used by
167          frontends to send MIDI messages to specific sampler channel
168        - added two additional fields to GET FILE INSTRUMENT INFO command -
169          KEY_BINDINGS and KEYSWITCH_BINDINGS
170        - bugfix: the bank number provided by MIDI_INSTRUMENT_INFO notifications
171          was incorrect
172        - Optimized the retrieval of the MIDI instrument mappings
173        - added new LSCP command "SET VOICES" to globally alter the maximum
174          amount of voices, added new LSCP event "GLOBAL_INFO:VOICES" which will
175          be triggered respectively
176        - added new LSCP command "SET STREAMS" to globally alter the maximum
177          amount of disk streams, added new LSCP event "GLOBAL_INFO:STREAMS"
178          which will be triggered respectively
179        - bugfix: retry if "select" returns EINTR (this fixes a crash when
180          a gigedit file dialog is opened)
181        - close all connections when LSCPServer is deleted
182        - hard close of all sockets on exit
183        - bugfix: SET CHANNEL MIDI_INPUT_TYPE didn't work with the MME
184          driver
185    
186      * Bug fixes:
187        - fixed a crash which occurs when removing a sampler channel waiting
188          to start instrument loading after another channel
189        - fixed a crash which occurs when removing a sampler channel with
190          instrument loading in progress (bug #113)
191        - fixed termination caused by uncaught exception when adding MIDI
192          instrument with PERSISTENT load mode
193        - fixed possible iterator invalidations when resetting the sampler
194        - fixed memory leaks when issuing the following LSCP commands:
195          GET AUDIO_OUTPUT_DRIVER INFO
196          GET AUDIO_OUTPUT_DRIVER_PARAMETER INFO
197          GET MIDI_INPUT_DRIVER INFO
198          GET MIDI_INPUT_DRIVER_PARAMETER INFO
199        - fixed possible compilation error when sqlite is not present
200        - fixed orphaned pointers when setting maximum voices limit (bug #118)
201        - fixed crash when changing the audio output device of a sampler
202          channel with loaded instrument and start playing notes
203        - fixed endless loop in Engine::SuspendAll() (bug #120)
204        - fixed a low-level atomic load function that was broken on 64-bit
205          PowerPC, which probably could cause crashes on that platform
206        - fixed a memory management error which could cause a crash when a
207          plugin was unloaded
208        - bugfix: two private structs had the same name, which could cause
209          problems if the linker chose the wrong constructor
