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        - implemented support for internal LADSPA effects
26        - raised limit of program change queue from 100 to 512
27          (as suggested by Alex Stone)
28    
29      * Gigasampler format engine:
30        - implemented the "round robin keyboard" dimension
31        - fixed round robin and random dimensions for cases when number of
32          dimension zones is not a power of two
33        - made round robin use a counter for each region instead of each
34          key
35    
36      * SFZ format engine:
37        - Initial implementation (not usable yet)
38        - added support for v2 multiple stage envelope generators
39        - added a fine-tuned v1 envelope generator instead of using the
40          one from the gig engine
41        - fixed memory leak and memory handling errors
42        - added support for trigger=first, trigger=legato and sw_previous
43        - allow non-numerical key values ("C#4" for example)
44        - "key" opcode now sets pitch_keycenter too
45        - fixed error when unloading instrument with same sample used by
46          multiple regions
47        - added some opcode aliases, like loopmode for loop_mode, to be
48          more compatible
49        - added support for trigger=release and rt_decay
50        - added support for off_mode=normal
51        - added support for random, seq_position, seq_length and volume
52        - added v1 LFO opcodes to parser (no support in engine yet)
53        - added support for amp_veltrack and amp_velcurve_N
54        - fine-tuned the default velocity curve
55        - added support for transpose
56        - fixed crash when using sw_down/up
57        - improved logic for sw_lokey/hikey/up/down/last
58        - added more v1 aliases to parser
59        - reduced memory usage for sfz data
60        - RT-safeness: avoid malloc in audio thread
61        - fixed a bug that could cause voice stealing to fail
62        - optimized sample lookup
63        - improved support for exclusive groups (group, off_by and
64          off_mode)
65        - added support for controller triggered regions (on_locc/on_hicc)
66        - added support for loop_mode=one_shot
67        - fixed playback of 16 bit wav files on big endian CPUs
68        - added support for Ogg Vorbis sample files
69        - use loop markers from sample file if loop_start and loop_end are
70          not set in sfz file
71    
72      * SoundFont format engine:
73        - Initial implementation (not usable yet)
74        - RT-safeness: avoid malloc in audio thread
75        - fixed a bug that could cause voice stealing to fail
76    
77      * Host plugins:
78        - AU bugfix: failed to destroy its audio/MIDI devices
79        - Listen to all interfaces on Mac OS X (INADDR_ANY)
80        - VST bugfix: If the host called resume() before and after
81          changing sample rate or block size, the number of channels was
82          incorrectly set to two. This caused silence in Cubase 5.
83        - save engine type (gig, sfz or sf2) in plugin state
84        - VST: when opening Fantasia, look for both 32 and 64 bit Java on
85          64 bit Windows
86    
87      * MIDI driver:
88        - ALSA MIDI driver supports now "NAME" device parameter, for overriding
89          the ALSA sequencer client name
90        - removed limit of maximum amount of MIDI ports per MIDI device, since
91          there is no reason for this limit
92    
93      * LSCP server:
94        - added support for sending MIDI CC messages via LSCP command
95          "SEND CHANNEL MIDI_DATA CC <sampler-chan> <ctrl> <val>"
96        - added LSCP command "GET AVAILABLE_EFFECTS"
97        - added LSCP command "LIST AVAILABLE_EFFECTS"
98        - added LSCP command "GET EFFECT INFO <effect-index>"
99        - added LSCP command "CREATE EFFECT_INSTANCE <effect-index>"

103        - added LSCP command "GET EFFECT_INSTANCES"
104        - added LSCP command "LIST EFFECT_INSTANCES"
105        - added LSCP command "GET EFFECT_INSTANCE INFO <effect-instance>"
106        - added LSCP command
107          "GET EFFECT_INSTANCE_INPUT_CONTROL INFO <effect-instance> <input-control>"
108        - added LSCP command "SET EFFECT_INSTANCE_INPUT_CONTROL VALUE
109          <effect-instance> <input-control> <value>"
110        - added LSCP command "GET SEND_EFFECT_CHAINS <audio-device>"
111        - added LSCP command "LIST SEND_EFFECT_CHAINS <audio-device>"
112        - added LSCP command "ADD SEND_EFFECT_CHAIN <audio-device>"
113        - added LSCP command
114          "REMOVE SEND_EFFECT_CHAIN <audio-device> <effect-chain>"
115        - added LSCP command
116          "GET SEND_EFFECT_CHAIN INFO <audio-device> <effect-chain>"
117        - added LSCP command "APPEND SEND_EFFECT_CHAIN EFFECT <audio-device>
118          <effect-chain> <effect-instance>"
119        - added LSCP command "INSERT SEND_EFFECT_CHAIN EFFECT <audio-device>
120          <effect-chain> <effect-chain-pos> <effect-instance>"
121        - added LSCP command "REMOVE SEND_EFFECT_CHAIN EFFECT <audio-device>
122          <effect-chain> <chain-pos>"
123        - added LSCP command "SET FX_SEND EFFECT <sampler_channel>
124          <fx_send_id> <effect_chain> <chain_pos>"
125        - added LSCP command "REMOVE FX_SEND EFFECT <sampler_channel> <fx_send_id>"
126    
127      * Bug fixes:
128        - Fixed crash which may occur when MIDI key + transpose is out of range
129        - minor valgrind fixes
130        - fixed crash which occured when changing an already deployed sampler
131          channel to a different engine type
132        - fixed crash when deleting a sampler channel or changing engine
133          type while an instrument load was in progress
134        - bugfix: playing a note while changing the instrument could cause
135          a crash, or give "Handing back unknown region" error messages
136        - bugfix: calling SET VOICES (which Fantasia does on start and
137          refresh) could cause instruments to be unloaded
