# Line 1  Line 1 
1  Version CVS HEAD (?)  Version SVN trunk (?)
2    
3      * SFZ format engine:
4        - added support for <global>, <master> and #define (patch by Alby M)
5    
6      * general changes:
7        - fixed printf type errors (mostly in debug messages)
8        - use unique_ptr instead of auto_ptr when building with C++11
9        - Added RTAVLTree class which is a real-time safe ordered multi-map, thus
10          allowing to sort data efficiently in real-time safe manner.
11        - RTList class: added methods for moving/inserting elements to arbitrary
12          position within a list.
13        - RTList class: added method fromPtr() for creating an Iterator object from
14          a raw element pointer.
15        - Attempt to partly fix resetting engine channels vs. resetting engine, an
16          overall cleanup of the Reset*(), ConnectAudioDevice(),
17          DisconnectAudioDevice() API methods would still be desirable though,
18          because the current situation is still inconsistent and error prone.
19    
20      * packaging changes:
21        - removed unnecessary dependency to libuuid
22          (originated by libgig's usage of it)
23    
24      * Real-time instrument scripts:
25        - Implemented scheduler for delayed MIDI events and for suspended scripts.
26        - Built-in script function "wait()": implemented support for function's
27          "duration-us" argument, thus scripts using this function are now
28          correctly resumed after the requested amount of microseconds.
29        - Built-in script function "play_note()": implemented support for
30          function's "duration-us" argument, thus notes triggered with this
31          argument are now correctly released after the requested amount of
32          microseconds.
33        - Fix: script events were not cleared when engine channel was reset,
34          potentially causing undefined behavior.
35        - Fixed crash which happened when trying to reference an undeclared
36          variable.
37    
38    Version 2.0.0 (15 July 2015)
39    
40      * packaging changes:
41        - fixed building with newer MinGW-w64
42        - Mac OS X: support the new dir for Core Audio SDK
43        - Mac OS X: fixed building outside source directory
44        - made sure all source files for hostplugins are included when
45          doing "make dist"
46        - removed empty directories left from the cvs to svn migration
47        - fixed compilation with gcc 4.6.1
48        - another "make dist" fix, for the LV2 plugin
49        - made --enable-pthread-testcancel default on Mac OS X
50        - minor Makefile fix for building lscpparser when build and source
51          directories are separate
52        - Mac OS X: made it possible to specify plugin installation dir to
53          configure
54        - Mac OS X: Makefile fix for the install-strip target
55        - fixed compilation with gcc 4.7
56        - fixed configure script error with old autoconf versions
57        - lsatomic.h: use gcc provided atomic functions if building with
58          gcc 4.7 and C++11
59        - modernized configure script
60        - fixed linkage error when building with
61          LDFLAGS="-Wl,--no-undefined" (#190)
62        - fixed compilation with Clang 3.2
63        - removed usage of deprecated Automake variable INCLUDES
64        - fixed building with C++11
65        - build fix: ChangeFlagRelaxed.h was missing in makefile
66        - build fix: libsndfile compiler flags were missing in some
67          makefiles
68        - fix for building with bison 3.0 (#202)
69        - Mac OS X: added temporary hack allowing to spawn gigedit as callback
70          on the process's main thread
71        - fixed build error on newer MinGW
72        - support building with older jack versions
73        - support building with spaces in vst sdk path
74        - enabled automake 'subdir-objects' option and moved external
75          source references (vst, au, asio) from makefiles to cpp files,
76          in order to get rid of warnings from automake 1.14
77    
78      * general changes:
79        - Refactoring: moved the independent code from
80          the Gigasampler format engine to base classes
81        - command line option '--profile' is currently disabled, since the
82          respective profiling code is currently broken
83        - Introduced support for optional environment variable
84          "LINUXSAMPLER_PLUGIN_DIR" which allows to override the directory
85          where the sampler shall look for instrument editor plugins
86          (patch by Luis Garrido, slightly modified).
87        - implemented Roland GS NRPN 1ArrH which allows to set volume per note
88        - implemented Roland GS NRPN 1CrrH which allows to set pan per note
89        - implemented Roland GS NRPN 1DrrH which allows to set reverb send per
90          note (in this implementation of the sampler its simply hard routed to
91          the 1st effect send of the sampler channel, no matter what the actual
92          effect type is)
93        - implemented Roland GS NRPN 1ErrH which allows to set chorus send per
94          note (in this implementation of the sampler its simply hard routed to
95          the 2nd effect send of the sampler channel, no matter what the actual
96          effect type is)
97        - implemented support for internal LADSPA effects
98        - raised limit of program change queue from 100 to 512
99          (as suggested by Alex Stone)
100        - implemented sine LFO, pulse LFO and saw LFO
101        - experimental support for per voice equalization
102        - added command line option --exec-after-init
103        - Introduced new C++ API method:
104          EngineChannel::InstrumentFileName(int index)
105          allowing to retrieve the whole list of files used for the loaded
106          instrument on an engine channel (a.k.a. part). Some GigaStudio
107          instruments for example are splitted over several files like
108          "Foo.gig", "Foo.gx01", "Foo.gx02", ...
109        - Added new C++ API method Sampler::GetGlobalMaxVoices().
110        - Added new C++ API method Sampler::GetGlobalMaxStreams().
111        - Added new C++ API method Sampler::SetGlobalMaxVoices().
112        - Added new C++ API method Sampler::SetGlobalMaxStreams().
113        - Various "const" and "restrict" optimizations.
114        - all engines: add pan CC value to instrument pan parameter before
115          applying panning, instead of using two separate pan functions in
116          series (#182)
117        - added a lock guard class for exception safe mutex handling and
118          used it everywhere appropriate
119        - Immediately apply scale tuning changes to active voices.
120        - Exposed scale tuning to C++ API (along to the already existing standard
121          SysEx way).
122        - lsatomic.h fixes: seq_cst load and store were suboptimal for x86
123          and broken for ppc64. (Seq_cst loads and stores are actually not
124          used in LS, so the bug wasn't noticable.)
125        - lsatomic.h: added ARMv7 support
126        - Added support for multiple MIDI input ports per sampler channel (and
127          added various new C++ methods for this new feature / design change, old
128          C++ API methods for managing SamplerChannel's MIDI inputs are now marked
129          as deprecated but are still there and should provide full behavior
130          backward compatibility).
131        - AbstractEngine::GSChecksum(): don't allocate memory on the stack (was
132          unsafe and caused compilation error with clang 2.x).
133        - Bugfix: only process the latest MIDI program change event.
134        - Introducing the LSCP shell, which provides convenient control of the
135          sampler from the command line by providing LSCP aware features.
136        - VirtualMidiDevice: Added support for program change.
137        - VirtualMidiDevice: Added support for bank select (MSB & LSB).
138        - VirtualMidiDevice: Added support for pitch bend.
139        - Aftertouch: extended API to explicitly handle channel pressure and
140          polyphonic key pressure events (so far polyphonic pressure was not
141          supported at all, and channel pressure was rerouted as CC128 but not
142          used so far).
143        - Added initial support for real-time instrument scripts. The script VM
144          code is shared by all sampler engine implemementations, however only the
145          gig file format currently provides support for storing instrument scripts
146          (as LinuxSampler extension to the original GigaStudio 4 format).
147    
148      * Gigasampler format engine:
149        - implemented the "round robin keyboard" dimension
150        - fixed round robin and random dimensions for cases when number of
151          dimension zones is not a power of two
152        - made round robin use a counter for each region instead of each
153          key
154        - bugfix: pitch LFO controller "internal+aftertouch" was broken
155        - bugfix: filter keyboard tracking was broken
156        - filter performance fix (an unnecessary copy was made of the
157          filter parameters in each sub fragment)
158        - handle special case when pan parameter in gig file has max or
159          min value
160        - Exclusive Groups: don't ever stop voices of the same note,
161          doesn't sound naturally with a drumkit
162        - fixed EG1 modulation when attack or release is zero
163        - Fixed support for 'aftertouch' attenuation controller.
164        - Fixed crash that happened with velocity split sounds under certain
165          conditions (see also previous commit on libgig).
166        - fixed behaviour of filter LFO
167    
168      * SFZ format engine:
169        - Initial implementation (not usable yet)
170        - added support for v2 multiple stage envelope generators
171        - added a fine-tuned v1 envelope generator instead of using the
172          one from the gig engine

174        - added support for trigger=first, trigger=legato and sw_previous
175        - allow non-numerical key values ("C#4" for example)
176        - "key" opcode now sets pitch_keycenter too
177        - fixed error when unloading instrument with same sample used by
178          multiple regions

186        - fine-tuned the default velocity curve
187        - added support for transpose

189        - improved logic for sw_lokey/hikey/up/down/last
190        - added more v1 aliases to parser
191        - reduced memory usage for sfz data

337        - fine-tuned amplitude EG (by switching from gig to sfz EG)
338        - initial implementation of Vibrato LFO and Modulation LFO
339        - initial implementation of cutoff filter
340        - use linear decay and release for filter and pitch EG
341    
342      * Host plugins (VST, AU, LV2, DSSI):
343        - AU bugfix: failed to destroy its audio/MIDI devices
344        - Listen to all interfaces on Mac OS X (INADDR_ANY)
345        - VST bugfix: If the host called resume() before and after
346          changing sample rate or block size, the number of channels was
347          incorrectly set to two. This caused silence in Cubase 5.
348        - save engine type (gig, sfz or sf2) in plugin state
349        - VST: when opening Fantasia, look for both 32 and 64 bit Java on
350          64 bit Windows
351        - AU: changed number of output channels from one stereo to 16
352          stereo
353        - VST: made it possible to build the VST plugin for Mac
354        - AU: link AU plugin dynamically if --disable-shared isn't
355          specified
356        - LV2 "state" extension support (patch by David Robillard)

358          the plugin was loaded a second time (#174)
359        - plugin bugfix: instrument loading hang when the plugin was
360          loaded a second time (this time it's for Linux and Mac, previous
361          similar fix was for Windows)
362        - thread safety fixes for the instrument loading thread
363        - LV2: use the new lv2 package if present
364        - VST: try to open Fantasia automatically on Linux and Mac too (on
365          Linux, the Fantasia jar should be placed in <prefix>/share/java)
366        - VST: fixed crashes on Linux Ardour and EnergyXT
367        - DSSI bugfix: it wasn't possible to change engine type. The MIDI
368          port and audio channel routing for DSSI plugins are now visible.
369        - LV2: use urid and atom extensions instead of deprecated uri-map
370          and event
371        - LV2: lv2 package 1.0 is now required to build the LV2 plugin
372        - LV2: changed number of output channels to 16 stereo, just like
373          the VST and AU plugins
374        - LV2: fixed save/restore of SFZ state (patch by David Robillard)
375        - LV2: made LV2 plugin buildable on Windows and Mac

377          sampler's internal MIDI instrument mapping system
378    
379      * Instrument editor interface:
380        - Changed instrument editor plugin interface, providing additional
381          informations like the EngineChannel for which the instrument editor was
382          spawned for. This allows the instrument editors to interact more actively
383          with the sampler.
384    
385      * MIDI driver:
386        - ALSA MIDI driver supports now "NAME" device parameter, for overriding
387          the ALSA sequencer client name
388        - removed limit of maximum amount of MIDI ports per MIDI device, since
389          there is no reason for this limit
390        - MME: fixed memory handling bug found with cppcheck
391        - MME: removed compiler warning
392        - CoreMIDI: implemented driver specific port parameter "CORE_MIDI_BINDINGS",
393          which allows to retrieve the list of CoreMIDI clients / ports and to connect
394          to them a la JACK, via the usual sampler APIs
395        - CoreMIDI: added driver specific port parameter "AUTO_BIND", if enabled
396          the driver will automatically connect to other CoreMIDI clients' ports
397          (e.g. external MIDI devices being attached to the Mac)
398        - added support for MIDI note on velocity filter
399        - CoreMIDI: fixed memory deallocation error
400        - Fixed variable underflow in VirtualMidiDevice, which caused graphical
401          virtual keyboards in frontends / instrument editors being stuck.
402        - Bugfix in VirtualMidiDevice: process note on with velocity 0 as note off.
403        - Implemented missing handling of MIDI "running status".
404        - CoreMIDI fix: a MIDIPacket can contain more than one event per packet.
405        - MME bugfix: driver wasn't closed properly
406        - CoreMIDI: automatically connect to all input sources by default (driver
407          parameter "AUTO_BIND").
408        - CoreMIDI: fixed auto bind feature to CoreMIDI ports that go online
409        - CoreMIDI: fixed minor memory leak
410    
411      * audio driver:
412        - ASIO driver fixes for newer gcc versions (fix from PortAudio)
413        - JACK audio: react on sample rate changes.
414        - JACK audio: react on buffer size changes.
415        - JACK audio: jack_port_get_buffer() was cached and called outside
416          RT context.
417        - ASIO driver: removed compiler warnings
418        - CoreAudio: fixed minor error handling bug
419        - ASIO driver: be more verbose when no ASIO card could be found (fixes #203)
420        - JACK audio: return the JACK server's current sample rate as default value
421          for audio device parameter "SAMPLERATE" (fixes #166).
422

537          wrong name of destructor in AudioOutputDeviceCoreAudio.cpp
538        - Mac OS X: fixed hanging threads

542          after MIDI/audio device creation failure
543        - When creating MIDI instrument map entries with "PERSISTENT" type, the
544          instruments were uselessly precached with zero samples, however it still
545          took the full preloading time and on 1st program change the respective
546          instrument was completely reloaded again.
547        - fixed handling of rapid bank select and program change messages
548          sent to the same sampler channel (patch from the Open Octave
549          project, slightly adjusted)

562          introduced in previous fix)
563        - fixed crash when a channel received a program change while
564          playing a note in a key group
565        - fixed erroneous error message piping in VoiceBase.h
566          (labelled "Disk stream not available in time")
567        - Update effects on sample rate & period size changes (to avoid
568          crashes and noise on such transitions).
569        - ignore missing LADSPA paths without ignoring valid LADSPA paths
570          (fixes #208)
571        - Fixed bug in LSCP grammar definition which caused a statement like
572          "GET SERVER INFOasdf\n" to be accepted as valid statement (was so far
573          practically irrelevant, however it caused problems with the new LSCP
574          shell's auto completion feature).
575        - Fixed MIDI program change messages being ignored if quickly executed
576          after each other (fixes #231).
