28        - fixed di-harmonic triangle LFO implementation (this LFO implementation
29          is only used by very few systems, most pick the int math
30          implementation, which is usually faster)
31        - fixes for audio drivers with varying buffer sizes
32        - experimental support for running LinuxSampler as a DSSI, LV2 and
33          VST plugin
34        - notification events for stream/voice count statistics are now sent
35          only when there are actual changes
36        - added memory ordering constraints to improve stability on
37          multi-core and multi-cpu systems
38        - maximum voices and disk streams can now be altered at runtime

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

63        - added support for handling lost files in the instruments database
64        - Implemented option for adding instruments in separate directories
65          in the instruments database
66          (patch by Chris Cherrett & Andrew Williams, a bit adjusted)

68    * Gigasampler format engine:    * Gigasampler format engine:
69      - fixed a memory leak that could happen when a channel was deleted      - fixed a memory leak that could happen when a channel was deleted

71      - made it possible to load an instrument even if the audio thread      - made it possible to load an instrument even if the audio thread
72        isn't running        isn't running
73        - added partial support for the "Controller Triggered" MIDI rule,
74          enough for piano gigs with pedal noise samples
75        - minor fix: only mark FX sends as being modified if really the
76          respective FX send MIDI controller was used
77        - added support for GM global device volume SysEx message
78          (can be selected at compile time to either apply globally to the
79          whole sampler [default] or only to the sampler channels that are
80          connected to the respective MIDI input port the SysEx message arrived
81          on)
82        - bugfix: notes triggered at position 0 in the audio buffer were
83          sometimes wrongly killed in the same buffer, causing no sound to
84          be played
85        - added support for chromatic / drumkit mode Roland GS Sysex message
86          which is usally used to switch a part between chromatic sounds and
87          drumkit sounds (as opposed to their common default setting of MIDI
88          part 10 being a drumkit part and all other ones chromatic parts), in
89          LS however one can switch between the first 16 MIDI instrument maps
90          defined for the sampler
91        - made it possible to create multiple sample channels even if the
92          audio thread isn't running
93    
94      * LSCP server:
95        - added new LSCP event "CHANNEL_MIDI" which can be used by frontends to
96          react on MIDI data arriving on certain sampler channels (so far only
97          Note-On and Note-Off events are sent via this LSCP event)
98        - added new LSCP event "DEVICE_MIDI" which can be used by frontends to
99          react on MIDI data arriving on certain MIDI input devices (so far only
100          Note-On and Note-Off events are sent via this LSCP event)
101        - added new LSCP commands: FIND LOST DB_INSTRUMENT_FILES and
102          SET DB_INSTRUMENT FILE_PATH
103        - added new LSCP command: SEND CHANNEL MIDI_DATA which can be used by
104          frontends to send MIDI messages to specific sampler channel
105        - added two additional fields to GET FILE INSTRUMENT INFO command -
106          KEY_BINDINGS and KEYSWITCH_BINDINGS
107        - bugfix: the bank number provided by MIDI_INSTRUMENT_INFO notifications
108          was incorrect
109        - Optimized the retrieval of the MIDI instrument mappings
110        - added new LSCP command "SET VOICES" to globally alter the maximum
111          amount of voices, added new LSCP event "GLOBAL_INFO:VOICES" which will
112          be triggered respectively
113        - added new LSCP command "SET STREAMS" to globally alter the maximum
114          amount of disk streams, added new LSCP event "GLOBAL_INFO:STREAMS"
115          which will be triggered respectively
116        - bugfix: retry if "select" returns EINTR (this fixes a crash when
117          a gigedit file dialog is opened)
118    
119      * Bug fixes:
120        - fixed a crash which occurs when removing a sampler channel waiting
121          to start instrument loading after another channel
122        - fixed a crash which occurs when removing a sampler channel with
123          instrument loading in progress (bug #113)
124        - fixed termination caused by uncaught exception when adding MIDI
125          instrument with PERSISTENT load mode
