# Line 1  Line 1 
1  Version CVS HEAD (?)  Version SVN trunk (?)
2    
3      * SFZ format engine:
4        - added support for <global>, <master> and #define (patch by Alby M)
5    
6      * general changes:
7        - fixed printf type errors (mostly in debug messages)
8        - use unique_ptr instead of auto_ptr when building with C++11
9        - Added RTAVLTree class which is a real-time safe ordered multi-map, thus
10          allowing to sort data efficiently in real-time safe manner.
11        - RTList class: added methods for moving/inserting elements to arbitrary
12          position within a list.
13        - RTList class: added method fromPtr() for creating an Iterator object from
14          a raw element pointer.
15        - Attempt to partly fix resetting engine channels vs. resetting engine, an
16          overall cleanup of the Reset*(), ConnectAudioDevice(),
17          DisconnectAudioDevice() API methods would still be desirable though,
18          because the current situation is still inconsistent and error prone.
19        - Active voices are now internally grouped to "Note" objects, instead of
20          being directly assigned to a keyboard key. This allows more fine graded
21          processing of voices, which is i.e. required for certain instrument
22          script features.
23    
24      * packaging changes:
25        - removed unnecessary dependency to libuuid
26          (originated by libgig's usage of it)
27        - Automake: set environment variable GCC_COLORS=auto to allow GCC to
28          auto detect whether it (sh/c)ould output its messages in color.
29    
30      * Real-time instrument scripts:
31        - Implemented scheduler for delayed MIDI events and for suspended scripts.
32        - Built-in script function "wait()": implemented support for function's
33          "duration-us" argument, thus scripts using this function are now
34          correctly resumed after the requested amount of microseconds.
35        - Built-in script function "play_note()": implemented support for
36          function's "duration-us" argument, thus notes triggered with this
37          argument are now correctly released after the requested amount of
38          microseconds.
39        - Fix: script events were not cleared when engine channel was reset,
40          potentially causing undefined behavior.
41        - Fixed crash which happened when trying to reference an undeclared
42          variable.
43        - Built-in script function "play_note()": Added support for passing
44          special value -1 for "duration-us" argument, which will cause the
45          triggered note to be released once the original note was released.
46        - Instrument script classes now exported with the liblinuxsampler C++ API.
47        - Added new API method ScriptVM::syntaxHighlighting() which provides
48          a convenient syntax highlighting backend for external instrument
49          script editor applications.
50    
51    Version 2.0.0 (15 July 2015)
52    
53      * packaging changes:
54        - fixed building with newer MinGW-w64
55        - Mac OS X: support the new dir for Core Audio SDK
56        - Mac OS X: fixed building outside source directory
57        - made sure all source files for hostplugins are included when
58          doing "make dist"
59        - removed empty directories left from the cvs to svn migration
60        - fixed compilation with gcc 4.6.1
61        - another "make dist" fix, for the LV2 plugin
62        - made --enable-pthread-testcancel default on Mac OS X
63        - minor Makefile fix for building lscpparser when build and source
64          directories are separate
65        - Mac OS X: made it possible to specify plugin installation dir to
66          configure
67        - Mac OS X: Makefile fix for the install-strip target
68        - fixed compilation with gcc 4.7
69        - fixed configure script error with old autoconf versions
70        - lsatomic.h: use gcc provided atomic functions if building with
71          gcc 4.7 and C++11
72        - modernized configure script
73        - fixed linkage error when building with
74          LDFLAGS="-Wl,--no-undefined" (#190)
75        - fixed compilation with Clang 3.2
76        - removed usage of deprecated Automake variable INCLUDES
77        - fixed building with C++11
78        - build fix: ChangeFlagRelaxed.h was missing in makefile
79        - build fix: libsndfile compiler flags were missing in some
80          makefiles
81        - fix for building with bison 3.0 (#202)
82        - Mac OS X: added temporary hack allowing to spawn gigedit as callback
83          on the process's main thread
84        - fixed build error on newer MinGW
85        - support building with older jack versions
86        - support building with spaces in vst sdk path
87        - enabled automake 'subdir-objects' option and moved external
88          source references (vst, au, asio) from makefiles to cpp files,
89          in order to get rid of warnings from automake 1.14
90    
91      * general changes:
92        - Refactoring: moved the independent code from
93          the Gigasampler format engine to base classes
94        - command line option '--profile' is currently disabled, since the
95          respective profiling code is currently broken
96        - Introduced support for optional environment variable
97          "LINUXSAMPLER_PLUGIN_DIR" which allows to override the directory
98          where the sampler shall look for instrument editor plugins
99          (patch by Luis Garrido, slightly modified).
100        - implemented Roland GS NRPN 1ArrH which allows to set volume per note
101        - implemented Roland GS NRPN 1CrrH which allows to set pan per note
102        - implemented Roland GS NRPN 1DrrH which allows to set reverb send per
103          note (in this implementation of the sampler its simply hard routed to
104          the 1st effect send of the sampler channel, no matter what the actual
105          effect type is)
106        - implemented Roland GS NRPN 1ErrH which allows to set chorus send per
107          note (in this implementation of the sampler its simply hard routed to
108          the 2nd effect send of the sampler channel, no matter what the actual
109          effect type is)
110        - implemented support for internal LADSPA effects
111        - raised limit of program change queue from 100 to 512
112          (as suggested by Alex Stone)
113        - implemented sine LFO, pulse LFO and saw LFO
114        - experimental support for per voice equalization
115        - added command line option --exec-after-init
116        - Introduced new C++ API method:
117          EngineChannel::InstrumentFileName(int index)
118          allowing to retrieve the whole list of files used for the loaded
119          instrument on an engine channel (a.k.a. part). Some GigaStudio
120          instruments for example are splitted over several files like
121          "Foo.gig", "Foo.gx01", "Foo.gx02", ...
122        - Added new C++ API method Sampler::GetGlobalMaxVoices().
123        - Added new C++ API method Sampler::GetGlobalMaxStreams().
124        - Added new C++ API method Sampler::SetGlobalMaxVoices().
125        - Added new C++ API method Sampler::SetGlobalMaxStreams().
126        - Various "const" and "restrict" optimizations.
127        - all engines: add pan CC value to instrument pan parameter before
128          applying panning, instead of using two separate pan functions in
129          series (#182)
130        - added a lock guard class for exception safe mutex handling and
131          used it everywhere appropriate
132        - Immediately apply scale tuning changes to active voices.
133        - Exposed scale tuning to C++ API (along to the already existing standard
134          SysEx way).
135        - lsatomic.h fixes: seq_cst load and store were suboptimal for x86
136          and broken for ppc64. (Seq_cst loads and stores are actually not
137          used in LS, so the bug wasn't noticable.)
138        - lsatomic.h: added ARMv7 support
139        - Added support for multiple MIDI input ports per sampler channel (and
140          added various new C++ methods for this new feature / design change, old
141          C++ API methods for managing SamplerChannel's MIDI inputs are now marked
142          as deprecated but are still there and should provide full behavior
143          backward compatibility).
144        - AbstractEngine::GSChecksum(): don't allocate memory on the stack (was
145          unsafe and caused compilation error with clang 2.x).
146        - Bugfix: only process the latest MIDI program change event.
147        - Introducing the LSCP shell, which provides convenient control of the
148          sampler from the command line by providing LSCP aware features.
149        - VirtualMidiDevice: Added support for program change.
150        - VirtualMidiDevice: Added support for bank select (MSB & LSB).
151        - VirtualMidiDevice: Added support for pitch bend.
152        - Aftertouch: extended API to explicitly handle channel pressure and
153          polyphonic key pressure events (so far polyphonic pressure was not
154          supported at all, and channel pressure was rerouted as CC128 but not
155          used so far).
156        - Added initial support for real-time instrument scripts. The script VM
157          code is shared by all sampler engine implemementations, however only the
158          gig file format currently provides support for storing instrument scripts
159          (as LinuxSampler extension to the original GigaStudio 4 format).
160    
161      * Gigasampler format engine:
162        - implemented the "round robin keyboard" dimension
163        - fixed round robin and random dimensions for cases when number of
164          dimension zones is not a power of two
165        - made round robin use a counter for each region instead of each
166          key
167        - bugfix: pitch LFO controller "internal+aftertouch" was broken
168        - bugfix: filter keyboard tracking was broken
169        - filter performance fix (an unnecessary copy was made of the
170          filter parameters in each sub fragment)
171        - handle special case when pan parameter in gig file has max or
172          min value
173        - Exclusive Groups: don't ever stop voices of the same note,
174          doesn't sound naturally with a drumkit
175        - fixed EG1 modulation when attack or release is zero
176        - Fixed support for 'aftertouch' attenuation controller.
177        - Fixed crash that happened with velocity split sounds under certain
178          conditions (see also previous commit on libgig).

184        - added a fine-tuned v1 envelope generator instead of using the
185          one from the gig engine

198        - added support for amp_veltrack and amp_velcurve_N
199        - fine-tuned the default velocity curve
200        - added support for transpose
201        - fixed crash when using sw_down/up
202        - improved logic for sw_lokey/hikey/up/down/last
203        - added more v1 aliases to parser
204        - reduced memory usage for sfz data
205        - RT-safeness: avoid malloc in audio thread
206        - fixed a bug that could cause voice stealing to fail
207        - optimized sample lookup
208        - improved support for exclusive groups (group, off_by and

342          after each "#include", only after the main file is parsed
343        - bugfix: line numbers in error messages were wrong after "#include"
344        - added support for float and 32 bit sample files
345    
346      * SoundFont format engine:
347        - Initial implementation (not usable yet)

356        - AU bugfix: failed to destroy its audio/MIDI devices
357        - Listen to all interfaces on Mac OS X (INADDR_ANY)
358        - VST bugfix: If the host called resume() before and after
359          changing sample rate or block size, the number of channels was
360          incorrectly set to two. This caused silence in Cubase 5.
361        - save engine type (gig, sfz or sf2) in plugin state
362        - VST: when opening Fantasia, look for both 32 and 64 bit Java on
363          64 bit Windows
364        - AU: changed number of output channels from one stereo to 16
365          stereo

373          loaded a second time (this time it's for Linux and Mac, previous
374          similar fix was for Windows)
375        - thread safety fixes for the instrument loading thread
376        - LV2: use the new lv2 package if present
377        - VST: try to open Fantasia automatically on Linux and Mac too (on
378          Linux, the Fantasia jar should be placed in <prefix>/share/java)
379        - VST: fixed crashes on Linux Ardour and EnergyXT
380        - DSSI bugfix: it wasn't possible to change engine type. The MIDI
381          port and audio channel routing for DSSI plugins are now visible.
382        - LV2: use urid and atom extensions instead of deprecated uri-map
383          and event
384        - LV2: lv2 package 1.0 is now required to build the LV2 plugin
385        - LV2: changed number of output channels to 16 stereo, just like

393        - Changed instrument editor plugin interface, providing additional
394          informations like the EngineChannel for which the instrument editor was
395          spawned for. This allows the instrument editors to interact more actively
396          with the sampler.
397    
398      * MIDI driver:
399        - ALSA MIDI driver supports now "NAME" device parameter, for overriding
400          the ALSA sequencer client name

402          there is no reason for this limit
403        - MME: fixed memory handling bug found with cppcheck
404        - MME: removed compiler warning
405        - CoreMIDI: implemented driver specific port parameter "CORE_MIDI_BINDINGS",
406          which allows to retrieve the list of CoreMIDI clients / ports and to connect
407          to them a la JACK, via the usual sampler APIs
408        - CoreMIDI: added driver specific port parameter "AUTO_BIND", if enabled
409          the driver will automatically connect to other CoreMIDI clients' ports

414          virtual keyboards in frontends / instrument editors being stuck.
415        - Bugfix in VirtualMidiDevice: process note on with velocity 0 as note off.
416        - Implemented missing handling of MIDI "running status".
417        - CoreMIDI fix: a MIDIPacket can contain more than one event per packet.
418        - MME bugfix: driver wasn't closed properly
419        - CoreMIDI: automatically connect to all input sources by default (driver
420          parameter "AUTO_BIND").
421        - CoreMIDI: fixed auto bind feature to CoreMIDI ports that go online
422        - CoreMIDI: fixed minor memory leak
423    
424      * audio driver:

555          after MIDI/audio device creation failure
556        - When creating MIDI instrument map entries with "PERSISTENT" type, the
557          instruments were uselessly precached with zero samples, however it still
558          took the full preloading time and on 1st program change the respective
559          instrument was completely reloaded again.
560        - fixed handling of rapid bank select and program change messages
561          sent to the same sampler channel (patch from the Open Octave

575          introduced in previous fix)
576        - fixed crash when a channel received a program change while
577          playing a note in a key group
578        - fixed erroneous error message piping in VoiceBase.h
579          (labelled "Disk stream not available in time")
580        - Update effects on sample rate & period size changes (to avoid
581          crashes and noise on such transitions).
582        - ignore missing LADSPA paths without ignoring valid LADSPA paths
583          (fixes #208)
584        - Fixed bug in LSCP grammar definition which caused a statement like
585          "GET SERVER INFOasdf\n" to be accepted as valid statement (was so far
586          practically irrelevant, however it caused problems with the new LSCP
587          shell's auto completion feature).
588        - Fixed MIDI program change messages being ignored if quickly executed
589          after each other (fixes #231).

709        - added instrument database support on Windows
710          works with both standalone mode and VST plugin.
711          the instruments DB file is located in
712          %USERPROFILE%\.linuxsampler\instruments.db which allows different
713          databases for each windows user
714          if no DB is present it automatically creates the .linuxsampler subdir
715          and then creates an empty DB
716        - fixed recursive import, which was broken on Windows
717    
718    * Gigasampler format engine:    * Gigasampler format engine:
719      - fixed a memory leak that could happen when a channel was deleted      - fixed a memory leak that could happen when a channel was deleted
720        while notes were playing        while notes were playing
721      - made it possible to load an instrument even if the audio thread      - made it possible to load an instrument even if the audio thread
722        isn't running        isn't running
723        - added partial support for the "Controller Triggered" MIDI rule,
724          enough for piano gigs with pedal noise samples
725        - minor fix: only mark FX sends as being modified if really the
726          respective FX send MIDI controller was used
727        - added support for GM global device volume SysEx message
728          (can be selected at compile time to either apply globally to the
729          whole sampler [default] or only to the sampler channels that are
730          connected to the respective MIDI input port the SysEx message arrived
731          on)
732        - bugfix: notes triggered at position 0 in the audio buffer were
733          sometimes wrongly killed in the same buffer, causing no sound to
734          be played
735        - added support for chromatic / drumkit mode Roland GS Sysex message
736          which is usally used to switch a part between chromatic sounds and
737          drumkit sounds (as opposed to their common default setting of MIDI
738          part 10 being a drumkit part and all other ones chromatic parts), in
739          LS however one can switch between the first 16 MIDI instrument maps
740          defined for the sampler
741        - made it possible to create multiple sample channels even if the
742          audio thread isn't running
743        - fixed crash when removing channel with active voices (#116)
744        - bugfix: on sample reference changes (instrument editor), only
745          un-cache the respective sample if it's really not used by any
746          sampler engine anymore
747        - re-cache samples in case they were changed by an instrument editor,
748          e.g. when a sample was added while playing (#82)
749        - fixed hanging notes which occured when note-off event had the exact
750          same time stamp as the voice's note-on event and occured both in the
751          same audio fragment cycle (fixes bug #112)
752        - added support for the "fine tune" and "pitch bend range"
753          instrument-level gig parameters
754        - fixed minor artifacts in pitch bend handling
755        - added support for GS Reset SysEx message
756        - allow gig files to use unlimited downward pitch shifting
757        - added a limit check for upward pitch shifting
758        - bugfix: sometimes, when playing a note twice fast, the second
759          note was silent
760        - fixed crash happening when a pitch bend event arrived at the
761          same time a new instrument was loading
762    
763      * LSCP server:
764        - added new LSCP event "CHANNEL_MIDI" which can be used by frontends to
765          react on MIDI data arriving on certain sampler channels (so far only
766          Note-On and Note-Off events are sent via this LSCP event)
767        - added new LSCP event "DEVICE_MIDI" which can be used by frontends to
768          react on MIDI data arriving on certain MIDI input devices (so far only
769          Note-On and Note-Off events are sent via this LSCP event)
770        - added new LSCP commands: FIND LOST DB_INSTRUMENT_FILES and
771          SET DB_INSTRUMENT FILE_PATH
772        - added new LSCP command: SEND CHANNEL MIDI_DATA which can be used by
773          frontends to send MIDI messages to specific sampler channel
774        - added two additional fields to GET FILE INSTRUMENT INFO command -
775          KEY_BINDINGS and KEYSWITCH_BINDINGS
776        - bugfix: the bank number provided by MIDI_INSTRUMENT_INFO notifications
777          was incorrect
778        - Optimized the retrieval of the MIDI instrument mappings
779        - added new LSCP command "SET VOICES" to globally alter the maximum
780          amount of voices, added new LSCP event "GLOBAL_INFO:VOICES" which will
781          be triggered respectively
782        - added new LSCP command "SET STREAMS" to globally alter the maximum
783          amount of disk streams, added new LSCP event "GLOBAL_INFO:STREAMS"
784          which will be triggered respectively
785        - bugfix: retry if "select" returns EINTR (this fixes a crash when
786          a gigedit file dialog is opened)
787        - close all connections when LSCPServer is deleted
788        - hard close of all sockets on exit
789        - bugfix: SET CHANNEL MIDI_INPUT_TYPE didn't work with the MME
790          driver
791    
792      * Bug fixes:
793        - fixed a crash which occurs when removing a sampler channel waiting
794          to start instrument loading after another channel
795        - fixed a crash which occurs when removing a sampler channel with
796          instrument loading in progress (bug #113)
797        - fixed termination caused by uncaught exception when adding MIDI
798          instrument with PERSISTENT load mode
799        - fixed possible iterator invalidations when resetting the sampler
800        - fixed memory leaks when issuing the following LSCP commands:
801          GET AUDIO_OUTPUT_DRIVER INFO
802          GET AUDIO_OUTPUT_DRIVER_PARAMETER INFO
803          GET MIDI_INPUT_DRIVER INFO
804          GET MIDI_INPUT_DRIVER_PARAMETER INFO
805        - fixed possible compilation error when sqlite is not present
806        - fixed orphaned pointers when setting maximum voices limit (bug #118)
807        - fixed crash when changing the audio output device of a sampler
808          channel with loaded instrument and start playing notes
809        - fixed endless loop in Engine::SuspendAll() (bug #120)
810        - fixed a low-level atomic load function that was broken on 64-bit
811          PowerPC, which probably could cause crashes on that platform
812        - fixed a memory management error which could cause a crash when a
813          plugin was unloaded
814        - bugfix: two private structs had the same name, which could cause
815          problems if the linker chose the wrong constructor
816        - fixed low-level ConditionServer usage bug that caused lockups on
817          Windows
