2    
3      * General changes:
4        - Refactoring: moved the independent code from
5          the Gigasampler format engine to base classes
6        - command line option '--profile' is currently disabled, since the
7          respective profiling code is currently broken
8        - Introduced support for optional environment variable
9          "LINUXSAMPLER_PLUGIN_DIR" which allows to override the directory
10          where the sampler shall look for instrument editor plugins
11          (patch by Luis Garrido, slightly modified).
12    
13      * Gigasampler format engine:
14        - implemented the "round robin keyboard" dimension
15        - fixed round robin and random dimensions for cases when number of
16          dimension zones is not a power of two
17        - made round robin use a counter for each region instead of each
18          key
19    
20      * SFZ format engine:
21        - Initial implementation (not usable yet)
22        - added support for v2 multiple stage envelope generators
23        - added a fine-tuned v1 envelope generator instead of using the
24          one from the gig engine
25        - fixed memory leak and memory handling errors
26        - added support for trigger=first, trigger=legato and sw_previous
27        - allow non-numerical key values ("C#4" for example)
28        - "key" opcode now sets pitch_keycenter too
29        - fixed error when unloading instrument with same sample used by
30          multiple regions
31        - added some opcode aliases, like loopmode for loop_mode, to be
32          more compatible
33        - added support for trigger=release and rt_decay
34    
35      * SoundFont format engine:
36        - Initial implementation (not usable yet)
37    
38      * Host plugins:
39        - AU bugfix: failed to destroy its audio/MIDI devices
40        - Listen to all interfaces on Mac OS X (INADDR_ANY)
41        - VST bugfix: If the host called resume() before and after
42          changing sample rate or block size, the number of channels was
43          incorrectly set to two. This caused silence in Cubase 5.
44    
45      * MIDI driver:
46        - ALSA MIDI driver supports now "NAME" device parameter, for overriding
47          the ALSA sequencer client name
48    
49      * LSCP server:
50        - added support for sending MIDI CC messages via LSCP command
51          "SEND CHANNEL MIDI_DATA CC <sampler-chan> <ctrl> <val>"
52    
53      * Bug fixes:
54        - Fixed crash which may occur when MIDI key + transpose is out of range
55    
56    Version 1.0.0 (31 July 2009)

106          stacktrace mechanism seems to be broken on most systems at the moment)
107        - C++ API method InstrumentManager::LaunchInstrumentEditor() now returns
108          a pointer to the launched InstrumentEditor object
109        - added optional 3rd party user data parameter for following

174          works with both standalone mode and VST plugin.
175          the instruments DB file is located in
176          %USERPROFILE%\.linuxsampler\instruments.db which allows different
177          databases for each windows user
178          if no DB is present it automatically creates the .linuxsampler subdir
179          and then creates an empty DB
