93      - added JACK MIDI driver      - added JACK MIDI driver
94        - dispatch bank select as ordinary CC as well, the user might seriously
95          want to (mis)use it for some purpose ("fixed" in all current MIDI
96          input drivers: ALSA, CoreMIDI, JACK, MidiShare, MME)
97        - bugfix: pitch bend wasn't working with JackMidi, VST, LV2, MME,
98          CoreMidi or AU
99        - fixed mingw-w64 compilation error in MME driver
100        - made program change handling in MIDI thread real-time safe by

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