2    
3      * plugin changes:
4        - LV2 Persist + Files support (patch by David Robillard)
5    
6      * packaging changes:
7        - fixed building with newer MinGW-w64
8        - Mac OS X: support the new dir for Core Audio SDK
9        - Mac OS X: fixed building outside source directory
10        - made sure all source files for hostplugins are included when
11          doing "make dist"
12        - removed empty directories left from the cvs to svn migration
13        - fixed compilation with gcc 4.6.1
14        - another "make dist" fix, for the LV2 plugin
15        - made --enable-pthread-testcancel default on Mac OS X
16        - minor Makefile fix for building lscpparser when build and source
17          directories are separate
18        - Mac OS X: made it possible to specify plugin installation dir to
19          configure
20        - Mac OS X: Makefile fix for the install-strip target
21    
22      * general changes:
23        - Refactoring: moved the independent code from
24          the Gigasampler format engine to base classes
25        - command line option '--profile' is currently disabled, since the
26          respective profiling code is currently broken
27        - Introduced support for optional environment variable
28          "LINUXSAMPLER_PLUGIN_DIR" which allows to override the directory
29          where the sampler shall look for instrument editor plugins
30          (patch by Luis Garrido, slightly modified).
31        - implemented Roland GS NRPN 1ArrH which allows to set volume per note
32        - implemented Roland GS NRPN 1CrrH which allows to set pan per note
33        - implemented Roland GS NRPN 1DrrH which allows to set reverb send per
34          note (in this implementation of the sampler its simply hard routed to
35          the 1st effect send of the sampler channel, no matter what the actual
36          effect type is)
37        - implemented Roland GS NRPN 1ErrH which allows to set chorus send per
38          note (in this implementation of the sampler its simply hard routed to
39          the 2nd effect send of the sampler channel, no matter what the actual
40          effect type is)
41        - implemented support for internal LADSPA effects
42        - raised limit of program change queue from 100 to 512
43          (as suggested by Alex Stone)
44

46        - implemented the "round robin keyboard" dimension
47        - fixed round robin and random dimensions for cases when number of
48          dimension zones is not a power of two
49        - made round robin use a counter for each region instead of each
50          key
51    
52      * SFZ format engine:
53        - Initial implementation (not usable yet)
54        - added support for v2 multiple stage envelope generators
55        - added a fine-tuned v1 envelope generator instead of using the
56          one from the gig engine
57        - fixed memory leak and memory handling errors
58        - added support for trigger=first, trigger=legato and sw_previous
59        - allow non-numerical key values ("C#4" for example)
60        - "key" opcode now sets pitch_keycenter too
61        - fixed error when unloading instrument with same sample used by
62          multiple regions
63        - added some opcode aliases, like loopmode for loop_mode, to be
64          more compatible
65        - added support for trigger=release and rt_decay
66        - added support for off_mode=normal
67        - added support for random, seq_position, seq_length and volume
68        - added v1 LFO opcodes to parser (no support in engine yet)
69        - added support for amp_veltrack and amp_velcurve_N
70        - fine-tuned the default velocity curve
71        - added support for transpose
72        - fixed crash when using sw_down/up
73        - improved logic for sw_lokey/hikey/up/down/last
74        - added more v1 aliases to parser
75        - reduced memory usage for sfz data
76        - RT-safeness: avoid malloc in audio thread
77        - fixed a bug that could cause voice stealing to fail
78        - optimized sample lookup
79        - improved support for exclusive groups (group, off_by and
80          off_mode)
81        - added support for controller triggered regions (on_locc/on_hicc)
82        - added support for loop_mode=one_shot
83        - fixed playback of 16 bit wav files on big endian CPUs
84        - added support for Ogg Vorbis sample files
85        - use loop markers from sample file if loop_start and loop_end are
86          not set in sfz file
87        - implemeted filters. Filter types: lowpass, bandpass, bandreject
88          and highpass. 1, 2, 4 and 6 pole filters. Opcodes: fil_type,
89          cutoff, resonance, fil_veltrack, fil_keytrack, fil_keycenter,
90          cutoff_cc, cutoff_chanaft.

107      * Gigasampler format engine:
108        - bugfix: pitch LFO controller "internal+aftertouch" was broken
109        - bugfix: filter keyboard tracking was broken
110        - filter performance fix (an unnecessary copy was made of the
111          filter parameters in each sub fragment)
112    
113      * Host plugins:
114        - AU bugfix: failed to destroy its audio/MIDI devices
115        - Listen to all interfaces on Mac OS X (INADDR_ANY)
116        - VST bugfix: If the host called resume() before and after
117          changing sample rate or block size, the number of channels was
118          incorrectly set to two. This caused silence in Cubase 5.
119        - save engine type (gig, sfz or sf2) in plugin state
120        - VST: when opening Fantasia, look for both 32 and 64 bit Java on

130          the ALSA sequencer client name
