3    * packaging changes:    * packaging changes:
4        - fixed building with newer MinGW-w64
5    
6      * general changes:
7        - Refactoring: moved the independent code from
8          the Gigasampler format engine to base classes
9        - command line option '--profile' is currently disabled, since the
10          respective profiling code is currently broken
11        - Introduced support for optional environment variable
12          "LINUXSAMPLER_PLUGIN_DIR" which allows to override the directory
13          where the sampler shall look for instrument editor plugins
14          (patch by Luis Garrido, slightly modified).
15        - implemented Roland GS NRPN 1ArrH which allows to set volume per note
16        - implemented Roland GS NRPN 1CrrH which allows to set pan per note
17        - implemented Roland GS NRPN 1DrrH which allows to set reverb send per
18          note (in this implementation of the sampler its simply hard routed to
19          the 1st effect send of the sampler channel, no matter what the actual
20          effect type is)
21        - implemented Roland GS NRPN 1ErrH which allows to set chorus send per
22          note (in this implementation of the sampler its simply hard routed to
23          the 2nd effect send of the sampler channel, no matter what the actual
24          effect type is)
25    
26      * Gigasampler format engine:
27        - implemented the "round robin keyboard" dimension
28        - fixed round robin and random dimensions for cases when number of
29          dimension zones is not a power of two
30        - made round robin use a counter for each region instead of each
31          key
32    
33      * SFZ format engine:
34        - Initial implementation (not usable yet)
35        - added support for v2 multiple stage envelope generators
36        - added a fine-tuned v1 envelope generator instead of using the
37          one from the gig engine
38        - fixed memory leak and memory handling errors
39        - added support for trigger=first, trigger=legato and sw_previous
40        - allow non-numerical key values ("C#4" for example)
41        - "key" opcode now sets pitch_keycenter too
42        - fixed error when unloading instrument with same sample used by
43          multiple regions
44        - added some opcode aliases, like loopmode for loop_mode, to be
45          more compatible
46        - added support for trigger=release and rt_decay
47        - added support for off_mode=normal
48        - added support for random, seq_position, seq_length and volume
49        - added v1 LFO opcodes to parser (no support in engine yet)
50        - added support for amp_veltrack and amp_velcurve_N
51        - fine-tuned the default velocity curve
52        - added support for transpose
53        - fixed crash when using sw_down/up
54        - improved logic for sw_lokey/hikey/up/down/last
55        - added more v1 aliases to parser
56        - reduced memory usage for sfz data
57        - RT-safeness: avoid malloc in audio thread
58        - fixed a bug that could cause voice stealing to fail
59        - optimized sample lookup
60        - improved support for exclusive groups (group, off_by and
61          off_mode)
62        - added support for controller triggered regions (on_locc/on_hicc)
63        - added support for loop_mode=one_shot
64        - fixed playback of 16 bit wav files on big endian CPUs
65        - added support for Ogg Vorbis sample files
66    
67      * SoundFont format engine:
68        - Initial implementation (not usable yet)
69        - RT-safeness: avoid malloc in audio thread
70        - fixed a bug that could cause voice stealing to fail
71    
72      * Host plugins:
73        - AU bugfix: failed to destroy its audio/MIDI devices
74        - Listen to all interfaces on Mac OS X (INADDR_ANY)
75        - VST bugfix: If the host called resume() before and after
76          changing sample rate or block size, the number of channels was
77          incorrectly set to two. This caused silence in Cubase 5.
78    
79      * MIDI driver:
80        - ALSA MIDI driver supports now "NAME" device parameter, for overriding
81          the ALSA sequencer client name
82    
83      * LSCP server:
84        - added support for sending MIDI CC messages via LSCP command
85          "SEND CHANNEL MIDI_DATA CC <sampler-chan> <ctrl> <val>"
86    
87      * Bug fixes:
88        - Fixed crash which may occur when MIDI key + transpose is out of range
89        - minor valgrind fixes
90    
91    Version 1.0.0 (31 July 2009)

210          the instruments DB file is located in
211          %USERPROFILE%\.linuxsampler\instruments.db which allows different
212          databases for each windows user
213          if no DB is present it automatically creates the .linuxsampler subdir

311        - fixed a memory management error which could cause a crash when a
312          plugin was unloaded
