# Line 1  Line 1 
1  Version CVS HEAD (?)  Version SVN trunk (?)
2    
3      * general changes:
4        - Fixed compiler error in Pool.h.
5        - Require C++14 compiler support.
6        - Autoconf: Added m4/ax_cxx_compile_stdcxx.m4 macro which is used
7          for checking in configure for C++14 support (as mandatory
8          requirement) and automatically adds compiler argument if required
9          (e.g. -std=C++14).
10        - RTMath: Implemented floating point comparison methods
11          fEqual32(float,float) and fEqual64(double,double) which take the
12          expected floating point tolerances into account.
13        - Added public API C++ class "LFO", which is a cluster class encapsulating
14          all the sampler's LFO implementations to be used by 3rd party applications
15          (e.g. by Gigedit).
16        - Added int math square LFO implementation.
17        - Added int math saw LFO implementation.
18        - Added numeric complex nr sine LFO implementation.
19        - Marked class LFOTriangleDiHarmonic as deprecated
20          (will be removed in future).
21        - Added LFOAll.h which includes all LFO implementation's header files.
22        - Refactored LFO class names and their file names (PulseLFO -> LFOPulse,
23          LFOSawIntMath -> LFOSawIntMathNew, SawLFO -> LFOSawIntMathOld,
24          SineLFO -> LFOSineBuiltinFn, LFOSine -> LFOSineNumericComplexNr,
25          SquareLFO -> LFOSquarePulse and separated the latter to its own header
26          file).
27        - Renamed type LFOSigned -> LFOTriangleSigned.
28        - Renamed type LFOUnsigned -> LFOTriangleUnsigned.
29        - Using now cubic interpolation as resampling algorithm by default; and
30          linear interpolation is deprecated now.
31        - Event:Init(): memset() entire Event::Param union to zero instead of trying
32          to do that for its individual members; the latter became error prone due
33          to the union's growing complexity meanwhile.
34        - EngineChannel: Overhaul of RPN/NRPN related methods: Added new
35          *Rpn*Parameter*() methods as replacement for previous *Rpn*Controller*()
36          methods and marked the old ones as deprecated; and likewise added new
37          *Nrpn*Parameter*() methods as replacement for previous *Nrpn*Controller*()
38          methods and marked those old ones deprecated as well.
39        - Added support for MIDI CC #38 (data entry LSB): this allows higher value
40          resolution for certain (e.g. hard coded) RPN and NRPN parameters.
41        - Implemented support for compressed RPN/NRPN message sequences (that is to
42          allow processing MIDI data entry messages without always having to be
43          preceded strictly by RPN/NRPN parameter selection messages on each value
44          change).
45        - Added support for MIDI CC #96 (data increment) and MIDI CC #97 (data
46          decrement).
47        - Added support for 'null function RPN/NRPN' (which is RPN/NRPN parameter
48          MSB=127 and LSB=127) and which is disabling subsequent data
49          entry/increment/decrement CC messages.
50        - Fixed crash when editing key groups (a.k.a. exclusive groups) with an
51          instrument editor.
52        - Fixed playing noise at the end of a disk stream under certain conditions.
53        - Fixed potential crash with high pitch at end of RAM playback.
54        - Added configure checks whether C++ compiler supports so called
55          'designated initializers'.
56    
57      * Real-time instrument scripts:
58        - Added method ScriptVM::setExitResultEnabled() which allows to
59          explicitly enable the built-in exit() function to optionally accept
60          one function argument; the value of the passed exit() function
61          argument will then become available by calling
62          VMExecContext::exitResult() after script execution.
63        - 64 bit support for NKSP integer scripts variables (declare $foo).
64        - Variable names, function names and preprocessor condition names must start
65          with a regular character (a-z or A-Z); starting them with a digit or
66          underscore is not allowed.
67        - NKSP parser fix: equal comparison operator "=" and not equal comparison
68          operator "#" must only accept integer operands.
69        - NKSP language: Implemented support for standard units like Hertz, seconds,
70          Bel including support for metric unit prefixes; so one can now e.g.
71          conveniently use numbers in scripts like "5us" meaning "5 microseconds",
72          or e.g. "12kHz" meaning "12 kilo Hertz", or e.g. "-14mdB" meaning
73          "minus 14 Millidecibel", or e.g. "28c" meaning "28 cents" (for tuning).
74        - NKSP language: Introduced "final" operator "!" which is specifically
75          intended for synthesis parameter values to denote that the synthesis
76          parameter value is intended to be the "final" value for that synthesis
77          parameter that should explicitly be used by the engine and thus causing
78          the sampler engine to ignore all other modulation sources for the same
79          synthesis parameter (like e.g. LFO, EG); by simply prefixing a value,
80          variable or formula with this new "!" operator the expression is marked as
81          being "final".
82        - NKSP script editor API: Added support for detecting standard unit tokens
83          and their potential metric prefix token.
84        - NKSP language: Added support for NKSP real number literals and
85          arithmetic operations on them (e.g. "(3.9 + 2.9) / 12.3 - 42.0").
86        - NKSP language: Added support for NKSP real number (floating point) script
87          variables (declare ~foo).
88        - NKSP language: Added support for NKSP real number (floating point) array
89          script variables (declare ?foo[]).
90        - Built-in script function "message()" accepts now real number argument as
91          well.
92        - Added built-in script function "real_to_int()" and its short hand form
93          "int()" for casting from real number to integer in NKSP scripts.
94        - Added built-in script function "int_to_real()" and its short hand form
95          "real()" for casting from integer to real number in NKSP scripts.
96        - Allow built-in exit() function to potentially accept real number type
97          argument as well.
98        - Built-in script functions may have a different return type depending on
99          the arguments passed to the function.
100        - Built-in script function "abs()" optionally accepts and returns real
101          number.
102        - Built-in script functions "min()" and "max()" optionally accept real
103          number arguments and return real number as result in that case.
104        - NKSP VM API: Allow units and 'final'ness to be returned as result from
105          built-in functions (added methods VMFunction::returnUnitType() and
106          VMFunction::returnsFinal() for that purpose which must be implemented by
107          built-in function implementations).
108        - NKSP language: Allow metric unit prefixes of numeric scalar and array
109          variables to be changed freely at runtime (unlike unit types like Hz etc.
110          which are still sticky, parse-time features of variables which cannot be
111          changed at runtime for the intentional sake of determinism).
112        - NKSP language: 'final' values are prohibited for array variables for now
113          (attempt causes a parsers error).
114        - NKSP language: expressions with unit types (e.g. Hz) are prohibited for
115          conditions of runtime control structures like if(), while(), select()
116          (attempt causes a parser error).
117        - NKSP VM API: Allow built-in functions to perform their own, individual
118          parse time checks of arguments going to be passed to the function at
119          runtime (added method VMFunction::checkArgs() for that purpose).
120        - NKSP language: raise parser warning if only one operand of binary
121          operators (like logical 'or' comparison) contain a 'final' value (because
122          it would always yield in a 'final' result in such cases).
123        - NKSP language: Allow comparison (=, #, <, >, <=, >=) of values with
124          different metric unit prefixes, which will behave as expected (e.g.
125          result of expression '1000us < 2ms' is true).
126        - NKSP language: Allow adding values with different metric unit prefixes
127          (e.g. result of expression '100Hz + 5kHz' is '5100Hz').
128        - NKSP language: Allow subtracting values with different metric unit
129          prefixes (e.g. result of expression '1ms - 20us' is '980us').
130        - NKSP language: Allow multiplying with any metric unit prefixes
131          (e.g. result of expression '2k * 3ms' is '6s'), however multiplications
132          with unit types on both sides (e.g. '2s * 2s') is still prohibited since
133          we don't have any considerable practical use for a term like '4s^2'
134          (hence any attempt multiplying two unit types still causes parser error).
135        - NKSP language: Allow dividing by any metric unit prefixes and allow
136          division of same unit type on both sides (e.g. expression '8kHz / 1000Hz'
137          yields in unit free result '8'). So this is now a way to cast units away
138          e.g. for passing the result to other expressions, certain function calls
139          or variables which are not accepting any units (or that specific unit).
140        - NKSP language: integer arrays and real number arrays can now be converted
141          to strings (e.g. for dumping their content with message() calls for
142          script debugging purposes).
143        - NKSP language: expressions and variables with units are now correctly
144          casted to strings (e.g. with message() calls).
145        - NKSP language: comparing real numbers for equalness (e.g. '~foo = 3.1') or
146          unequalness (e.g. '~foo # 3.1') is now less strict and takes the expected
147          floating point tolerances into account.
148        - NKSP VM API: Added methods VMScalarNumberExpr::evalCastInt() and
149          VMScalarNumberExpr::evalCastReal().
150        - NKSP VM API: Added base class 'VMNumberArrayExpr' for classes
151          'VMIntArrayExpr' and 'VMRealArrayExpr'.
152        - NKSP VM API: replaced all unitPrefix() (parse time) methods by
153          unitFactor() (runtime) methods.
154        - Built-in function "exit()" supports now returning units and 'final'ness
155          for test cases.
156        - The following built-in functions support now units as well: "abs()",
157          "random()", "inc()", "dec()", "in_range()", "min()", "max()",
158          "real_to_int()", "int()", "int_to_real()" and "real()".
159        - Built-in functions "array_equal()", "search()" and "sort()" support now
160          real number arrays (correctly) as well.
161        - Added individual parse time checks of arguments to be passed to built-in
162          functions "random()", "inc()", "dec()", "in_range()", "min()", "max()",
163          "array_equal()" and "search()" specific for their individual purposes.
164        - NKSP VM refactoring: Renamed all methods, functions and classes matching
165          pattern *ScalarNumber* to simply *Number* (that is i.e. classes
166          VMScalarNumberExpr -> VMNumberExpr, ScalarNumberExpr -> NumberExpr,
167          ScalarNumberVariable -> NumberVariable, ScalarNumberBinaryOp ->
168          NumberBinaryOp, VMScalarNumberResultFunction -> VMNumberResultFunction,
169          method VMExpr::asScalarNumberExpr() -> VMExpr::asNumber(), function
170          isScalarNumber() -> isNumber()).
171        - NKSP VM API: Added 4 overridden methods to class VMNumberExpr:
172          evalCastInt(MetricPrefix_t), evalCastInt(MetricPrefix_t,MetricPrefix_t),
173          evalCastReal(MetricPrefix_t), evalCastReal(MetricPrefix_t,MetricPrefix_t)
174          as convenient methods for automatically converting values to expected
175          metric value basis.
176        - Built-in function "wait()" accepts now both integers and real numbers as
177          argument.
178        - NKSP VM API cleanup: Get rid of legacy method
179          VMFunction::argType(vmint iArg) which was already superseded by its new
180          replacement VMFunction::acceptsArgType(vmint iArg, ExprType_t type).
181        - NKSP parser: if wrong argument type was passed to a built-in function and
182          that built-in function accepts more than one data type for the argument,
183          then show all supported data types as parser error message.
184        - Built-in function "play_note()" accepts now real numbers and seconds as
185          unit type as well for its 3rd and 4th function arguments.
186        - The following built-in functions accept now real numbers as well for their
187          2nd function argument: "change_vol()", "change_tune()", "change_cutoff()",
188          "change_attack()", "change_decay()", "change_release()",
189          "change_sustain()", "change_cutoff_attack()", "change_cutoff_decay()",
190          "change_cutoff_sustain()", "change_cutoff_release()",
191          "change_amp_lfo_freq()", "change_cutoff_lfo_freq()",
192          "change_pitch_lfo_freq()", "change_vol_time()", "change_tune_time()",
193          "change_pan_time()", "fade_in()", "fade_out()", "change_play_pos()".
194        - Fixed built-in function "change_play_pos()" not having accepted metric
195          prefixes at all.
196        - Fixed the following built-in functions having misinterpreted values given
197          with unit type (for their 2nd argument) as if they were relative values
198          (that is as if they were passed without a unit type): "change_attack()",
199          "change_decay()", "change_release()", "change_cutoff_attack()",
200          "change_cutoff_decay()", "change_cutoff_release()".
201        - Fixed the following built-in functions having applied completely wrong
202          'final' values: "change_sustain()", "change_cutoff_sustain()" (since the
203          respective EGs being their modulation sink assume uint data type with
204          value range 0..1000 instead of 0.0..1.0.
205        - Added individual parse-time checks of function arguments for the following
206          built-in functions: "play_note()", "note_off()", "set_event_mark()",
207          "delete_event_mark()", "by_marks()", "change_cutoff()", "change_attack()",
208          "change_decay()", "change_release()", "change_cutoff_attack()",
209          "change_cutoff_decay()", "change_cutoff_release()",
210          "change_amp_lfo_freq()", "change_cutoff_lfo_freq()",
211          "change_pitch_lfo_freq()", "change_vol_time()", "change_tune_time()" and
212          "change_pan_time()".
213        - Don't abort function call if unit type was used and at the same time
214          'final' operator was omitted for the primary value argument of the
215          following built-in functions: "change_cutoff()", "change_attack()",
216          "change_decay()", "change_release()", "change_cutoff_attack()",
217          "change_cutoff_decay()", "change_cutoff_release()",
218          "change_amp_lfo_freq()", "change_cutoff_lfo_freq()",
219          "change_pitch_lfo_freq()", "change_vol_time()", "change_tune_time()",
220          "change_pan_time()", instead imply 'final'ness at runtime and raise an
221          appropriate parser warning at parse time.
222        - Added built-in real number functions "round()", "ceil()", "floor()",
223          "sqrt()", "log()", "log2()", "log10()", "exp()", "pow()", "sin()",
224          "cos()", "tan()", "asin()", "acos()", "atan()".
225        - Added built-in script real number constant "~NI_MATH_PI".
226        - Added built-in script real number constant "~NI_MATH_E".
227        - NKSP language: Allow unary '+' operator.
228        - Added built-in script functions "msb()" and "lsb()".
229        - NKSP language: Added support for RPN event handler
230          ("on rpn ... end on" in instrument scripts).
231        - NKSP language: Added support for NRPN event handler
232          ("on nrpn ... end on" in instrument scripts).
233        - Added built-in read-only variables "$RPN_ADDRESS" and "$RPN_VALUE" which
234          may be read from the new RPN/NRPN script handlers to get the (N)RPN
235          parameter that had been changed and its new value.
236        - Added built-in const variables "$NI_CB_TYPE_RPN" and "$NI_CB_TYPE_NRPN"
237          which are identifying the new (N)RPN handlers as such at script runtime.
238        - Implemented built-in script function "set_rpn()".
239        - Implemented built-in script function "set_nrpn()".
240        - Fix: built-in functions returning an array type were broken and caused a
241          crash when the built-in function's (supposed to be array) result value was
242          used by the script VM.
243        - Removed upper value constraint for 2nd argument of built-in functions
244          "change_amp_lfo_freq()", "change_cutoff_lfo_freq()",
245          "change_pitch_lfo_freq()","change_reso()", "change_cutoff()",
246          "change_amp_lfo_depth()", "change_cutoff_lfo_depth()" and
247          "change_pitch_lfo_depth()", to allow e.g. passing value 2000000 to double
248          the LFO frequency / resonance / cutoff frequency.
249        - Reduced code involved for parsing NKSP variable declarations by using 2
250          generalized grammar rules with optional components (i.e. optional value
251          assignment and optional variable qualifiers) instead of previous linear
252          combinations of grammar rules, which also fixes some edge case.
253        - NKSP language parser: track code block locations also by a) raw byte
254          position in NKSP source code string and b) length of that code block in
255          bytes (along to the already existing code block tracking by line/column);
256          and added appropriate new members to public C++ API classes like
257          'firstByte' and 'lengthBytes' to class VMSourceToken and struct CodeBlock.
258        - NKSP language: Added support for 'patch' variable qualifier (capture their
259          locations and allow replacement of their assignment expression via VM C++
260          API).
261    
262      * test cases:
263        - Fixed compiler errors in test cases.
264        - Updated README for how to compile & run test cases.
265        - Updated test case
266          MutexTest::testDoubleLockStillBlocksConcurrentThread() to latest
267          expected behaviour of the Mutex class implementation (recursive
268          mutex type).
269        - Added test cases for NKSP core language aspects and core built-in
270          functions.
271        - Fixed thread tests segfaulting on Linux.
272        - NKSP: Added real number test cases for built-in functions exit(),
273          int_to_real(), real(), real_to_int() and int(), as well as for the
274          plus, minus and negate language operators.
275        - Added massive amount of NKSP test cases for standard measuring units and
276          'final' operator usage cases.
277        - Added NKSP test cases for (floating point tolerance aware) real number
278          equalness / unequalness comparison.
279        - Added NKSP int array and real array tests for value assignment and
280          initialization of arrays.
281        - Added NKSP test cases for built-in functions "round()", "ceil()",
282          "floor()", "sqrt()", "log()", "log2()", "log10()", "exp()", "pow()",
283          "sin()", "cos()", "tan()", "asin()", "acos()", "atan()".
284        - Added NKSP test cases for unary '+' operator.
285        - Added NKSP test cases for core built-in variables.
286        - Added thorough NKSP test cases for variable declarations.
287    
288      * GigaStudio/Gigasampler format engine:
289        - LFOTriangleIntMath and LFOTriangleIntAbsMath: Fixed FlipPhase=true
290          behaviour for start_level_mid.
291        - Changed LFO start levels: LFO1 and LFO2 both to mid, LFO3 to max. start
292          level (see discussion "GigaStudio LFO compatibility" on mailing list
293          from 2019-09-26 for details).
294        - Changed default wave form for all 3 LFOs to sine (instead of triangle;
295          see discussion "GigaStudio LFO compatibility" on mailing list from
296          2019-09-26 for details).
297        - Format extension: Added support for different LFO wave forms (currently
298          either sine [default], triangle, saw or square).
299        - Format extension: Added support for LFO phase displacement (0°..360°).
300        - Format extension: Added support for flipping LFO polarity on LFO 3
301          (in the original gig format this was only available for LFO 1 and LFO 2).
302        - Format extension: Support for additional filter types:
303          lowpass 1/2/4/6-pole, highpass 1/2/4/6-pole, bandpass 2-pole,
304          bandreject 2-pole.
305        - Fixd potential crash with polynomial interpolator and max. pitch.
306        - If minimum cutoff is defined, remap cutoff controller CC values to really
307          span the entire possible cutoff range (and avoiding a dead controller
308          zone).
309        - Implemented support for loading instrument scripts with 'patch' variables
310          (by patching these script variables with potentially overridden ones by
311          gig Instrument).
312    
313      * SFZ format engine:
314        - Fixed support for regions with loccN/hiccN conditions on more than one
315          MIDI controller.
316    
317      * Benchmarks:
318        - Fixed benchmarks/triang.cpp falsely having favoured "int math abs"
319          algorithm (since result of 2nd run was not accumulated).
320        - Added benchmark for saw wave (benchmarks/saw.cpp).
321        - Added benchmark for sine wave (benchmarks/sine.cpp).
322        - Added benchmark for square wave (benchmarks/square.cpp).
323        - Increased amount of benchmarks runs by factor 6 to achieve benchmark times
324          which are large enough on modern systems.
325    
326    Version 2.1.1 (27 Jul 2019)
327    
328      * Real-time instrument scripts:
329        - Fixed behavior of built-in NKSP functions change_sustain(),
330          change_cutoff_attack(), change_cutoff_decay(), change_cutoff_sustain()
331          and change_cutoff_release().
332    
333      * general changes:
334        - Only play release trigger samples on sustain pedal up if this behaviour
335          was explicitly requested by the instrument (otherwise only on note-off).
336        - Fixed compiler warnings.
337        - Fixed compilation error when cross-compiling to Mac.
338        - FX Sends: Provide more useful error messages on routing problems
339          (see bug #169).
340        - LSCP doc: Be more clear describing the two distinct approaches
341          of using external vs. internal effects (see bug #169).
342        - "optional" class: Fixed comparison operators.
343    
344      * Gigasampler/GigaStudio format engine:
345        - Format extension: If requested by instrument then don't play release
346          trigger sample on note-off events.
347    
348      * SFZ format engine:
349        - Fixed memory leak when releasing samples
350          (fixes bug #307, patch by Jacek Roszkowski)
351        - Fixed potential crash when a sample is shared by more than one region
352          (fixes bug #308, patch by Jacek Roszkowski).
353        - Opcode 'sample': Added support for built-in sample '*silence'
354          (fixes bug #310, patch by Jacek Roszkowski).
355    
356    Version 2.1.0 (25 Nov 2017)
357    
358      * SFZ format engine:
359        - added support for <global>, <master> and #define (patch by Alby M)
360        - Removed code duplication in SFZ file loading code.
361        - Added support for sfz extension opcode 'script' which may be used to
362          load real-time instrument script file (NKSP script language).
363        - Implemented opcode set_ccN (initial patch by Giovanni Senatore).
364        - Fixed unintended volume fade-in of voices under certain conditions.
365        - sfz parser: allow missing space between header and opcode
366    
367      * Gigasampler/GigaStudio format engine:
368        - Fixed clicks and pumping noise with Lowpass Turbo filter on very low
369          cutoff settings.
370        - Got rid of resembling an ancient GSt misbehavior which did not pitch at
371          all if an up-pitch of more than 40 semi tones was requested (I don't
372          think there is any stock gig sound that requires this behavior to
373          resemble its original sound).
374        - Added support for controlling whether the individual EGADSR stages may
375          be aborted (as LinuxSampler extension to the original GigaStudio 4
376          format).
377    
378      * general changes:
379        - fixed printf type errors (mostly in debug messages)
380        - use unique_ptr instead of auto_ptr when building with C++11
381        - Added RTAVLTree class which is a real-time safe ordered multi-map, thus
382          allowing to sort data efficiently in real-time safe manner.
383        - RTList class: added methods for moving/inserting elements to arbitrary
384          position within a list.
385        - RTList class: added method fromPtr() for creating an Iterator object from
386          a raw element pointer.
387        - Attempt to partly fix resetting engine channels vs. resetting engine, an
388          overall cleanup of the Reset*(), ConnectAudioDevice(),
389          DisconnectAudioDevice() API methods would still be desirable though,
390          because the current situation is still inconsistent and error prone.
391        - Active voices are now internally grouped to "Note" objects, instead of
392          being directly assigned to a keyboard key. This allows more fine graded
393          processing of voices, which is i.e. required for certain instrument
394          script features.
395        - Fix: Release trigger voices were not spawned on sustain pedal up
396          (CC #64) events.
397        - Fix: Release trigger voices can now also distinguish correctly between
398          note-off and sustain pedal up events.
399        - All engines: Increased ramp speed of volume smoother and pan smoother
400          (while slow rate of crossfade smoother is preserved) to allow quick
401          volume and pan changes by instrument scripts for instance.
402        - gig/sf2/sfz: Fixed aftertouch channel pressure events being processed
403          properly and thus were ignored for certain uses.
404        - Added new C++ API method
405          VirtualMidiDevice::SendChannelPressureToSampler().
406        - windows, 32-bit: fixed potential crashes by making sure the stack in
407          sub threads is 16-byte aligned
408        - fixed numerous compiler warnings
409        - Fixed invalid (note-on) event ID being assigned to new Note objects.
410        - Revised fundamental C++ classes "Thread", "Mutex" and "Condition" which
411          fixes potential undefined behavior.
412        - Fixed Note object leak when triggering notes on keys which did not
413          have a valid sample mapped (fixes bug #252).
414        - Fixed compilation errors when compiling with CONFIG_DEVMODE enabled.
415        - linuxsampler binary fix: option --create-instruments-db ignored
416          subsequent optional argument due to glibc's implementation oddity
417          which expects a "=" sign, but no space between them.
418    
419      * packaging changes:
420        - removed unnecessary dependency to libuuid
421          (originated by libgig's usage of it)
422        - Automake: set environment variable GCC_COLORS=auto to allow GCC to
423          auto detect whether it (sh/c)ould output its messages in color.
424        - Debian: Fixed packaging error about invalid "Source-Version"
425          substitution variable.
426        - Debian: Raised Debian compatibility level to Debian 9 "Stretch".
427        - Debian: Added build dependency to libsqlite3-dev for building
428          linuxsampler with instruments DB support.
429    
430      * Real-time instrument scripts:
431        - Implemented scheduler for delayed MIDI events and for suspended scripts.
432        - Built-in script function "wait()": implemented support for function's
433          "duration-us" argument, thus scripts using this function are now
434          correctly resumed after the requested amount of microseconds.
435        - Built-in script function "play_note()": implemented support for
436          function's "duration-us" argument, thus notes triggered with this
437          argument are now correctly released after the requested amount of
438          microseconds.
439        - Fix: script events were not cleared when engine channel was reset,
440          potentially causing undefined behavior.
441        - Fixed crash which happened when trying to reference an undeclared
442          variable.
443        - Built-in script function "play_note()": Added support for passing
444          special value -1 for "duration-us" argument, which will cause the
445          triggered note to be released once the original note was released.
446        - Instrument script classes now exported with the liblinuxsampler C++ API.
447        - Added new API method ScriptVM::syntaxHighlighting() which provides
448          a convenient syntax highlighting backend for external instrument
449          script editor applications.
450        - Added new C++ API class "ScriptVMFactory".
451        - Extended parser issues to provide not only first line and first
452          column, but also last line and last column of issue (thus marking
453          the precise span of the issue within the source code).
454        - Reload script automatically after being modified by an instrument
455          editor.
456        - NKSP language grammar correction: allow empty event handler bodies
457          like "on note end on".
458        - Implemented built-in script function "change_vol()".
459        - Implemented built-in script function "change_tune()".
460        - Implemented built-in script function "change_pan()".
461        - Implemented built-in script function "change_cutoff()".
462        - Implemented built-in script function "change_reso()".
463        - Implemented built-in script function "event_status()".
464        - Added built-in script constants "$EVENT_STATUS_INACTIVE" and
465          "$EVENT_STATUS_NOTE_QUEUE" both for being used as flags for
466          "event_status()" function.
467        - NKSP language: Added support for bitwise operators ".or.", ".and."
468          and ".not.".
469        - NKSP language scanner: Fixed IDs matching to require at least one
470          character (i.e. when matching function names or variable names).
471        - NKSP language scanner: disabled unusued rules.
472        - Fixed behavior of play_note() and note_off() functions which must
473          be distinguished engine internally from "real" MIDI note on/off
474          events in order to avoid misbehaviors like hanging notes.
475        - Implemented built-in script variable "$KSP_TIMER".
476        - Implemented built-in script variable "$NKSP_REAL_TIMER".
477        - Implemented built-in script variable "$NKSP_PERF_TIMER".
478        - Implemented built-in script variable "$ENGINE_UPTIME".
479        - Implemented built-in script function "inc()".
480        - Implemented built-in script function "dec()".
481        - NKSP language fix: division expressions were evaluated too often.
482        - NKSP language fix: string concatenation operator was right
483          associative instead of left (to right).
484        - NKSP language correction: allow empty statements in entire language
485          (i.e. "if end if").
486        - Implemented built-in script function "stop_wait()".
487        - Implemented built-in script variable "$NI_CALLBACK_ID".
488        - Implemented built-in script variable "$NI_CALLBACK_TYPE".
489        - Implemented built-in script variable "$NKSP_IGNORE_WAIT".
490        - Added support for read-only built-in variables (respectively
491          handled by the script parser).
492        - Added built-in script constant "$NI_CB_TYPE_INIT".
493        - Added built-in script constant "$NI_CB_TYPE_NOTE".
494        - Added built-in script constant "$NI_CB_TYPE_RELEASE".

498        - Implemented built-in script function "change_decay()".
499        - Implemented built-in script function "change_release()".
500        - Fixed all change_*() built-in script functions to apply their
501          synthesis parameter changes immediately in case the respective note
502          was triggered at the same time, instead of scheduling the parameter
503          change, especially because it would cause some parameter types's
504          changes either to be ramped (i.e. change_vol()) or other types even
505          to have not effect at all (i.e. change_attack()).
506        - Implemented built-in script function "sh_left()".
507        - Implemented built-in script function "sh_right()".
508        - Implemented built-in script function "min()".
509        - Implemented built-in script function "max()".
510        - NKSP Fix: "init" event handler was not always executed when a script
511          was loaded.
512        - NKSP built-in wait() script function: abort script execution if
513          a negative or zero wait time was passed as argument (since this is
514          a common indication of a bug either of the script or even of the
515          engine, which could lead to RT instability or even worse).
516        - ScriptVM: Implemented automatic suspension of RT safety
517          threatening scripts.
518        - Provide more user friendly error messages on syntax errors.
519        - Fixed NKSP parser warning "Not a statement" when assigning an
520          initializer list to an array variable.
521        - Implemented built-in script array variable "%ALL_EVENTS".
522        - Implemented built-in script function "in_range()".
523        - Implemented built-in script function "change_amp_lfo_depth()".
524        - Implemented built-in script function "change_amp_lfo_freq()".

526        - Implemented built-in script function "change_pitch_lfo_freq()".
527        - Implemented built-in script function "change_vol_time()".
528        - Implemented built-in script function "change_tune_time()".
529        - Implemented built-in script function "fade_in()".
530        - Implemented built-in script function "fade_out()".
531        - Fixed acceptance of wrong data type of parameters passed to built-in
532          script functions "change_vol()", "change_tune()", "change_pan()",
533          "change_cutoff()", "change_reso()", "change_attack()", "change_decay()",
534          "change_release()", "change_amp_lfo_depth()", "change_amp_lfo_freq()",
535          "change_pitch_lfo_depth()" and "change_pitch_lfo_freq()".
536        - Added built-in script function "get_event_par()" and implemented some
537          of its possible parameter selections.
538        - Added built-in script function "set_event_par()" and implemented some
539          of its possible parameter selections.
540        - Fixed a bunch of scheduler time related bugs.
541        - Fixed polyphonic variables not being reset to zero after usage.
542        - Built-in "ignore_event()" function: argument is now optional, like with
543          built-in function "ignore_controller()".
544        - Implemented built-in script function "change_velo()".
545        - Implemented built-in script function "change_note()".
546        - Adjusted behavior of "change_vol()" and "change_tune()" to a more
547          intuitive behavior if used in combination with "change_vol_time()" or
548          "change_tune_time()" respectively: now tuning/volume changes are only
549          assigned (without delay) immediately to a new note if the respective
550          timing function has not been called before, otherwise the volume/tuning
551          changes are automatically faded (before, only the event's time stamp was
552          relevant).
553         - Implemented built-in script function "array_equal()".
554         - Implemented built-in script function "search()".
555         - Implemented built-in script function "sort()".
556         - NKSP Fix: Never suspend "init" event handlers.
557         - Implemented built-in script function "same_region()" (currently only
558           available for gig format engine).
559         - Added built-in script constant "$NKSP_LINEAR".
560         - Added built-in script constant "$NKSP_EASE_IN_EASE_OUT".
561         - Implemented built-in script function "change_vol_curve()".
562         - Implemented built-in script function "change_tune_curve()".
563         - built-in "play_note()" function now supports a sample playback start
564           offset with argument 3, where special value -1 means to use the regular
565           sample offset as defined by the instrument file.
566         - Built-in array variable %KEY_DOWN[] is now a read-only variable.
567         - Built-in variable $EVENT_NOTE is now a read-only variable.
568         - Built-in variable $EVENT_VELOCITY is now a read-only variable.
569         - built-in "play_note()" function now accepts -2 for its fourth argument
570           (note duration) which means the life time of the note shall be sticked
571           to the requested note number of argument 1.
572         - Fix: built-in "play_note()" function now returns 0 as result value if
573           -1 was passed for its fourth argument (note duration) and the respective
574           parent note is already gone.
575        - Implemented built-in script function "change_play_pos()".
576        - NKSP language: Added support for user declared const array variables.

579        - NKSP language fix: Unknown characters were not handled correctly.
580        - NKSP language: Added support for "synchronized .. end synchronized"
581          code blocks.
582        - Implemented built-in script function "abort()" which allows to abort
583          another script handler by passing its callback ID.
584        - Fixed potential memory access bug and potential undefined behavior of
585          "init" event handlers.
586        - Print a time stamp along to each call of built-in function "message()".
587        - ScriptVM API: Added VMParserContext::preprocessorComments() which allows
588          to retrieve all code blocks filtered out by the preprocessor.
589        - Added built-in script function "fork()".
590        - Added built-in array variable %NKSP_CALLBACK_CHILD_ID[].
591        - Added built-in variable $NKSP_CALLBACK_PARENT_ID.
592        - Fixed potential crash when accessing dynamic built-in array variables.
593        - Added built-in script function "callback_status()".

595        - Added built-in constant $CALLBACK_STATUS_QUEUE.
596        - Added built-in constant $CALLBACK_STATUS_RUNNING.
597        - Removed max. value limitation of built-in functions "change_attack()",
598          "change_decay()" and "change_release()" to i.e. allow passing 2000000
599          for doubling the respective time.
600        - NKSP script editor syntax highlighting API: Fixed app termination due
601          to a lexer start condition stack underrun.
602        - NKSP preprocessor: Fixed wrong behavior on nested USE_CODE_IF() and
603          USE_CODE_IF_NOT() preprocessor statements.
604        - NKSP: Added built-in preprocessor condition NKSP_NO_MESSAGE, which
605          can be set to disable all subsequent built-in "message()" function calls
606          on preprocessor level.
607        - Implemented built-in script function "change_sustain()".
608        - NKSP script editor syntax highlighting API: catch all fatal lexer errors,
609          to avoid the editor app to crash on ill-formed text input.
610        - Added built-in script function "change_pan_time()".
611        - Added built-in script function "change_pan_curve()".

620        - Fixed memory access bug of general DB access code which lead to
621          undefined behavior.
622        - Cleanup of instruments DB file creation and opening code.
623        - The instrument DB path of linuxsampler's --create-instruments-db argument
624          is now optional, if it is missing, then a default location is used.
625        - Added support for scanning SFZ (.sfz) files.
626        - Added support for scanning Sound Font (.sf2) files.
627        - Fixed undefined DB transaction behavior.

678        - implemented Roland GS NRPN 1ArrH which allows to set volume per note
679        - implemented Roland GS NRPN 1CrrH which allows to set pan per note
680        - implemented Roland GS NRPN 1DrrH which allows to set reverb send per
681          note (in this implementation of the sampler its simply hard routed to
682          the 1st effect send of the sampler channel, no matter what the actual
683          effect type is)

694        - Introduced new C++ API method:
695          EngineChannel::InstrumentFileName(int index)
696          allowing to retrieve the whole list of files used for the loaded
697          instrument on an engine channel (a.k.a. part). Some GigaStudio
698          instruments for example are splitted over several files like
699          "Foo.gig", "Foo.gx01", "Foo.gx02", ...

704        - Various "const" and "restrict" optimizations.
705        - all engines: add pan CC value to instrument pan parameter before
706          applying panning, instead of using two separate pan functions in
707          series (#182)
708        - added a lock guard class for exception safe mutex handling and
709          used it everywhere appropriate
710        - Immediately apply scale tuning changes to active voices.
711        - Exposed scale tuning to C++ API (along to the already existing standard
712          SysEx way).
713        - lsatomic.h fixes: seq_cst load and store were suboptimal for x86
714          and broken for ppc64. (Seq_cst loads and stores are actually not
715          used in LS, so the bug wasn't noticable.)
716        - lsatomic.h: added ARMv7 support
717        - Added support for multiple MIDI input ports per sampler channel (and
718          added various new C++ methods for this new feature / design change, old
719          C++ API methods for managing SamplerChannel's MIDI inputs are now marked
720          as deprecated but are still there and should provide full behavior
721          backward compatibility).
722        - AbstractEngine::GSChecksum(): don't allocate memory on the stack (was
723          unsafe and caused compilation error with clang 2.x).
724        - Bugfix: only process the latest MIDI program change event.
725        - Introducing the LSCP shell, which provides convenient control of the
726          sampler from the command line by providing LSCP aware features.
727        - VirtualMidiDevice: Added support for program change.
728        - VirtualMidiDevice: Added support for bank select (MSB & LSB).
729        - VirtualMidiDevice: Added support for pitch bend.
730        - Aftertouch: extended API to explicitly handle channel pressure and
731          polyphonic key pressure events (so far polyphonic pressure was not
732          supported at all, and channel pressure was rerouted as CC128 but not
733          used so far).
734        - Added initial support for real-time instrument scripts. The script VM
735          code is shared by all sampler engine implemementations, however only the
736          gig file format currently provides support for storing instrument scripts
737          (as LinuxSampler extension to the original GigaStudio 4 format).

1119      - Fixed crash which may occur when MIDI key + transpose is out of range      - Fixed crash which may occur when MIDI key + transpose is out of range
1120        - minor valgrind fixes
1121        - fixed crash which occurred when changing an already deployed sampler
1122          channel to a different engine type
1123        - fixed crash when deleting a sampler channel or changing engine
1124          type while an instrument load was in progress
1125        - bugfix: playing a note while changing the instrument could cause
1126          a crash, or give "Handing back unknown region" error messages
1127        - bugfix: calling SET VOICES (which Fantasia does on start and
1128          refresh) could cause instruments to be unloaded
1129        - Mac OS X: fixed name collision of enum in EffectControl and
1130          wrong name of destructor in AudioOutputDeviceCoreAudio.cpp
1131        - Mac OS X: fixed hanging threads
1132        - Windows: disabled the previous thread fix on non-Mac systems, as
1133          it caused hanging threads on Windows
1134        - Fixed possible crashes due to corrupted MIDI/audio device list
1135          after MIDI/audio device creation failure
1136        - When creating MIDI instrument map entries with "PERSISTENT" type, the
1137          instruments were uselessly precached with zero samples, however it still
1138          took the full preloading time and on 1st program change the respective
1139          instrument was completely reloaded again.
1140        - fixed handling of rapid bank select and program change messages
1141          sent to the same sampler channel (patch from the Open Octave
1142          project, slightly adjusted)
1143        - fixed crash when trying to create an effect instance with controls
1144          which min and/or max values depend on the sample rate
1145        - fixed bug #162
1146        - bugfix: LADSPA_PATH was not evaluated correctly when containing
1147          multiple paths (#165)
1148        - thread safety fixes for the instrument loading thread
1149        - bugfix: instrument loading crashed for sfz and sf2 in Ardour
1150          (#176)
1151        - more thread safety fixes for the instrument loading thread
1152        - sfz/sf2 engine: fixed crash when using small audio fragment size
1153        - Mac OS X: fixed crash when unloading plugin on 10.7 and later
1154        - Mac OS X: fixed process hang when unloading 32-bit plugin (bug
1155          introduced in previous fix)
1156        - fixed crash when a channel received a program change while
1157          playing a note in a key group
1158        - fixed erroneous error message piping in VoiceBase.h
1159          (labelled "Disk stream not available in time")
1160        - Update effects on sample rate & period size changes (to avoid
1161          crashes and noise on such transitions).
1162        - ignore missing LADSPA paths without ignoring valid LADSPA paths
1163          (fixes #208)
1164        - Fixed bug in LSCP grammar definition which caused a statement like
1165          "GET SERVER INFOasdf\n" to be accepted as valid statement (was so far
1166          practically irrelevant, however it caused problems with the new LSCP
1167          shell's auto completion feature).
1168        - Fixed MIDI program change messages being ignored if quickly executed
1169          after each other (fixes #231).
