1  Version CVS HEAD (?)  Version CVS HEAD (?)
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    
26      * SoundFont format engine:
27        - Initial implementation (not usable yet)
28    
29      * Host plugins:
30        - AU bugfix: failed to destroy its audio/MIDI devices
31        - Listen to all interfaces on Mac OS X (INADDR_ANY)
32        - VST bugfix: If the host called resume() before and after
33          changing sample rate or block size, the number of channels was
34          incorrectly set to two. This caused silence in Cubase 5.
35    
36      * MIDI driver:
37        - ALSA MIDI driver supports now "NAME" device parameter, for overriding
38          the ALSA sequencer client name
39    
40      * LSCP server:
41        - added support for sending MIDI CC messages via LSCP command
42          "SEND CHANNEL MIDI_DATA CC <sampler-chan> <ctrl> <val>"
43    
44      * Bug fixes:
45        - Fixed crash which may occur when MIDI key + transpose is out of range
46    
47    Version 1.0.0 (31 July 2009)

95        - automatic stacktrace mechanism is now turned off by default and can
96          be switched on by command line option "--stacktrace" (the automatic
97          stacktrace mechanism seems to be broken on most systems at the moment)
98        - C++ API method InstrumentManager::LaunchInstrumentEditor() now returns
99          a pointer to the launched InstrumentEditor object
100        - added optional 3rd party user data parameter for following

126        - fixes for ASIO on mingw-w64 (iasio wrapper is not needed on
127          win64)
128        - VST: added support for sample rate and buffer size changes
129        - VST: close editor (Fantasia) when the VST is removed

165          works with both standalone mode and VST plugin.
166          the instruments DB file is located in
167          %USERPROFILE%\.linuxsampler\instruments.db which allows different
168          databases for each windows user
169          if no DB is present it automatically creates the .linuxsampler subdir
170          and then creates an empty DB
