# 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      * Gigasampler format engine:
7        - Fixed clicks and pumping noise with Lowpass Turbo filter on very low
8          cutoff settings.
9    
10      * general changes:
11        - fixed printf type errors (mostly in debug messages)
12        - use unique_ptr instead of auto_ptr when building with C++11
13        - Added RTAVLTree class which is a real-time safe ordered multi-map, thus
14          allowing to sort data efficiently in real-time safe manner.
15        - RTList class: added methods for moving/inserting elements to arbitrary
16          position within a list.
17        - RTList class: added method fromPtr() for creating an Iterator object from
18          a raw element pointer.
19        - Attempt to partly fix resetting engine channels vs. resetting engine, an
20          overall cleanup of the Reset*(), ConnectAudioDevice(),
21          DisconnectAudioDevice() API methods would still be desirable though,
22          because the current situation is still inconsistent and error prone.
23        - Active voices are now internally grouped to "Note" objects, instead of
24          being directly assigned to a keyboard key. This allows more fine graded
25          processing of voices, which is i.e. required for certain instrument
26          script features.
27        - Fix: Release trigger voices were not spawned on sustain pedal up
28          (CC #64) events.
29        - Fix: Release trigger voices can now also distinguish correctly between
30          note-off and sustain pedal up events.
31        - All engines: Increased ramp speed of volume smoother and pan smoother
32          (while slow rate of crossfade smoother is preserved) to allow quick
33          volume and pan changes by instrument scripts for instance.
34        - gig/sf2/sfz: Fixed aftertouch channel pressure events being processed
35          properly and thus were ignored for certain uses.
36        - Added new C++ API method
37          VirtualMidiDevice::SendChannelPressureToSampler().
38        - windows, 32-bit: fixed potential crashes by making sure the stack in
39          sub threads is 16-byte aligned
40        - fixed numerous compiler warnings
41    
42      * packaging changes:
43        - removed unnecessary dependency to libuuid
44          (originated by libgig's usage of it)
45        - Automake: set environment variable GCC_COLORS=auto to allow GCC to
46          auto detect whether it (sh/c)ould output its messages in color.
47    
48      * Real-time instrument scripts:
49        - Implemented scheduler for delayed MIDI events and for suspended scripts.
50        - Built-in script function "wait()": implemented support for function's
51          "duration-us" argument, thus scripts using this function are now
52          correctly resumed after the requested amount of microseconds.
53        - Built-in script function "play_note()": implemented support for
54          function's "duration-us" argument, thus notes triggered with this
55          argument are now correctly released after the requested amount of
56          microseconds.
57        - Fix: script events were not cleared when engine channel was reset,
58          potentially causing undefined behavior.
59        - Fixed crash which happened when trying to reference an undeclared
60          variable.
61        - Built-in script function "play_note()": Added support for passing
62          special value -1 for "duration-us" argument, which will cause the
63          triggered note to be released once the original note was released.
64        - Instrument script classes now exported with the liblinuxsampler C++ API.
65        - Added new API method ScriptVM::syntaxHighlighting() which provides
66          a convenient syntax highlighting backend for external instrument
67          script editor applications.
68        - Added new C++ API class "ScriptVMFactory".
69        - Extended parser issues to provide not only first line and first
70          column, but also last line and last column of issue (thus marking
71          the precise span of the issue within the source code).
72        - Reload script automatically after being modified by an instrument
73          editor.
74        - NKSP language grammar correction: allow empty event handler bodies
75          like "on note end on".
76        - Implemented built-in script function "change_vol()".
77        - Implemented built-in script function "change_tune()".
78        - Implemented built-in script function "change_pan()".
79        - Implemented built-in script function "change_cutoff()".
80        - Implemented built-in script function "change_reso()".
81        - Implemented built-in script function "event_status()".
82        - Added built-in script constants "$EVENT_STATUS_INACTIVE" and
83          "$EVENT_STATUS_NOTE_QUEUE" both for being used as flags for
84          "event_status()" function.
85        - NKSP language: Added support for bitwise operators ".or.", ".and."
86          and ".not.".
87        - NKSP language scanner: Fixed IDs matching to require at least one
88          character (i.e. when matching function names or variable names).
89        - NKSP language scanner: disabled unusued rules.
90        - Fixed behavior of play_note() and note_off() functions which must
91          be distinguished engine internally from "real" MIDI note on/off
92          events in order to avoid misbehaviors like hanging notes.
93        - Implemented built-in script variable "$KSP_TIMER".
94        - Implemented built-in script variable "$NKSP_REAL_TIMER".
95        - Implemented built-in script variable "$NKSP_PERF_TIMER".
96        - Implemented built-in script variable "$ENGINE_UPTIME".
97        - Implemented built-in script function "inc()".
98        - Implemented built-in script function "dec()".
99        - NKSP language fix: division expressions were evaluated too often.
100        - NKSP language fix: string concatenation operator was right
101          associative instead of left (to right).
102        - NKSP language correction: allow empty statements in entire language
103          (i.e. "if end if").
104        - Implemented built-in script function "stop_wait()".
105        - Implemented built-in script variable "$NI_CALLBACK_ID".
106        - Implemented built-in script variable "$NI_CALLBACK_TYPE".
107        - Implemented built-in script variable "$NKSP_IGNORE_WAIT".
108        - Added support for read-only built-in variables (respectively
109          handled by the script parser).
110        - Added built-in script constant "$NI_CB_TYPE_INIT".
111        - Added built-in script constant "$NI_CB_TYPE_NOTE".
112        - Added built-in script constant "$NI_CB_TYPE_RELEASE".
113        - Added built-in script constant "$NI_CB_TYPE_CONTROLLER".
114        - NKSP Language: Added support for user defined script functions.
115        - Implemented built-in script function "change_attack()".
116        - Implemented built-in script function "change_decay()".
117        - Implemented built-in script function "change_release()".
118        - Fixed all change_*() built-in script functions to apply their
119          synthesis parameter changes immediately in case the respective note
120          was triggered at the same time, instead of scheduling the parameter
121          change, especially because it would cause some parameter types's
122          changes either to be ramped (i.e. change_vol()) or other types even
123          to have not effect at all (i.e. change_attack()).
124        - Implemented built-in script function "sh_left()".
125        - Implemented built-in script function "sh_right()".
126        - Implemented built-in script function "min()".
127        - Implemented built-in script function "max()".
128        - NKSP Fix: "init" event handler was not always executed when a script
129          was loaded.
130        - NKSP built-in wait() script function: abort script execution if
131          a negative or zero wait time was passed as argument (since this is
132          a common indication of a bug either of the script or even of the
133          engine, which could lead to RT instability or even worse).
134        - ScriptVM: Implemented automatic suspension of RT safety
135          threatening scripts.
136        - Provide more user friendly error messages on syntax errors.
137        - Fixed NKSP parser warning "Not a statement" when assigning an
138          initializer list to an array variable.
139        - Implemented built-in script array variable "%ALL_EVENTS".
140    
141      * Instruments DB:
142        - Fixed memory access bug of general DB access code which lead to
143          undefined behavior.
144    
145    Version 2.0.0 (15 July 2015)
146    
147      * packaging changes:

149        - Mac OS X: support the new dir for Core Audio SDK
150        - Mac OS X: fixed building outside source directory
151        - made sure all source files for hostplugins are included when
152          doing "make dist"
153        - removed empty directories left from the cvs to svn migration
154        - fixed compilation with gcc 4.6.1
155        - another "make dist" fix, for the LV2 plugin
156        - made --enable-pthread-testcancel default on Mac OS X
157        - minor Makefile fix for building lscpparser when build and source
158          directories are separate
159        - Mac OS X: made it possible to specify plugin installation dir to
160          configure
161        - Mac OS X: Makefile fix for the install-strip target
162        - fixed compilation with gcc 4.7
163        - fixed configure script error with old autoconf versions
164        - lsatomic.h: use gcc provided atomic functions if building with
165          gcc 4.7 and C++11
166        - modernized configure script
167        - fixed linkage error when building with
168          LDFLAGS="-Wl,--no-undefined" (#190)

177          on the process's main thread
178        - fixed build error on newer MinGW
179        - support building with older jack versions
180        - support building with spaces in vst sdk path
181        - enabled automake 'subdir-objects' option and moved external
182          source references (vst, au, asio) from makefiles to cpp files,
183          in order to get rid of warnings from automake 1.14
184    
185      * general changes:
186        - Refactoring: moved the independent code from
187          the Gigasampler format engine to base classes
188        - command line option '--profile' is currently disabled, since the
189          respective profiling code is currently broken
190        - Introduced support for optional environment variable
191          "LINUXSAMPLER_PLUGIN_DIR" which allows to override the directory
192          where the sampler shall look for instrument editor plugins
193          (patch by Luis Garrido, slightly modified).
194        - implemented Roland GS NRPN 1ArrH which allows to set volume per note
195        - implemented Roland GS NRPN 1CrrH which allows to set pan per note
196        - implemented Roland GS NRPN 1DrrH which allows to set reverb send per
197          note (in this implementation of the sampler its simply hard routed to
198          the 1st effect send of the sampler channel, no matter what the actual
199          effect type is)
200        - implemented Roland GS NRPN 1ErrH which allows to set chorus send per
201          note (in this implementation of the sampler its simply hard routed to
202          the 2nd effect send of the sampler channel, no matter what the actual
203          effect type is)
204        - implemented support for internal LADSPA effects
205        - raised limit of program change queue from 100 to 512
206          (as suggested by Alex Stone)
207        - implemented sine LFO, pulse LFO and saw LFO
208        - experimental support for per voice equalization
209        - added command line option --exec-after-init
210        - Introduced new C++ API method:
211          EngineChannel::InstrumentFileName(int index)
212          allowing to retrieve the whole list of files used for the loaded
213          instrument on an engine channel (a.k.a. part). Some GigaStudio
214          instruments for example are splitted over several files like
215          "Foo.gig", "Foo.gx01", "Foo.gx02", ...
216        - Added new C++ API method Sampler::GetGlobalMaxVoices().
217        - Added new C++ API method Sampler::GetGlobalMaxStreams().
218        - Added new C++ API method Sampler::SetGlobalMaxVoices().
219        - Added new C++ API method Sampler::SetGlobalMaxStreams().
220        - Various "const" and "restrict" optimizations.
221        - all engines: add pan CC value to instrument pan parameter before
222          applying panning, instead of using two separate pan functions in
223          series (#182)
224        - added a lock guard class for exception safe mutex handling and
225          used it everywhere appropriate
226        - Immediately apply scale tuning changes to active voices.
227        - Exposed scale tuning to C++ API (along to the already existing standard
228          SysEx way).
229        - lsatomic.h fixes: seq_cst load and store were suboptimal for x86
230          and broken for ppc64. (Seq_cst loads and stores are actually not
231          used in LS, so the bug wasn't noticable.)
232        - lsatomic.h: added ARMv7 support
233        - Added support for multiple MIDI input ports per sampler channel (and
234          added various new C++ methods for this new feature / design change, old
235          C++ API methods for managing SamplerChannel's MIDI inputs are now marked
236          as deprecated but are still there and should provide full behavior
237          backward compatibility).
238        - AbstractEngine::GSChecksum(): don't allocate memory on the stack (was
239          unsafe and caused compilation error with clang 2.x).
240        - Bugfix: only process the latest MIDI program change event.
241        - Introducing the LSCP shell, which provides convenient control of the
242          sampler from the command line by providing LSCP aware features.
243        - VirtualMidiDevice: Added support for program change.
244        - VirtualMidiDevice: Added support for bank select (MSB & LSB).
245        - VirtualMidiDevice: Added support for pitch bend.
246        - Aftertouch: extended API to explicitly handle channel pressure and
247          polyphonic key pressure events (so far polyphonic pressure was not
248          supported at all, and channel pressure was rerouted as CC128 but not
249          used so far).
250        - Added initial support for real-time instrument scripts. The script VM
251          code is shared by all sampler engine implemementations, however only the
252          gig file format currently provides support for storing instrument scripts
253          (as LinuxSampler extension to the original GigaStudio 4 format).
254    
255      * Gigasampler format engine:
256        - implemented the "round robin keyboard" dimension
257        - fixed round robin and random dimensions for cases when number of
258          dimension zones is not a power of two
259        - made round robin use a counter for each region instead of each
260          key
261        - bugfix: pitch LFO controller "internal+aftertouch" was broken
262        - bugfix: filter keyboard tracking was broken
263        - filter performance fix (an unnecessary copy was made of the
264          filter parameters in each sub fragment)
265        - handle special case when pan parameter in gig file has max or
266          min value
267        - Exclusive Groups: don't ever stop voices of the same note,
268          doesn't sound naturally with a drumkit
269        - fixed EG1 modulation when attack or release is zero
270        - Fixed support for 'aftertouch' attenuation controller.
271        - Fixed crash that happened with velocity split sounds under certain
272          conditions (see also previous commit on libgig).
273        - fixed behaviour of filter LFO
274    
275      * SFZ format engine:
276        - Initial implementation (not usable yet)
277        - added support for v2 multiple stage envelope generators
278        - added a fine-tuned v1 envelope generator instead of using the
279          one from the gig engine
280        - fixed memory leak and memory handling errors
281        - added support for trigger=first, trigger=legato and sw_previous
282        - allow non-numerical key values ("C#4" for example)
283        - "key" opcode now sets pitch_keycenter too
284        - fixed error when unloading instrument with same sample used by
285          multiple regions
286        - added some opcode aliases, like loopmode for loop_mode, to be
287          more compatible
288        - added support for trigger=release and rt_decay
289        - added support for off_mode=normal
290        - added support for random, seq_position, seq_length and volume
291        - added v1 LFO opcodes to parser (no support in engine yet)
292        - added support for amp_veltrack and amp_velcurve_N
293        - fine-tuned the default velocity curve
294        - added support for transpose
295        - fixed crash when using sw_down/up
296        - improved logic for sw_lokey/hikey/up/down/last
297        - added more v1 aliases to parser
298        - reduced memory usage for sfz data
299        - RT-safeness: avoid malloc in audio thread
300        - fixed a bug that could cause voice stealing to fail
301        - optimized sample lookup
302        - improved support for exclusive groups (group, off_by and
303          off_mode)
304        - added support for controller triggered regions (on_locc/on_hicc)
305        - added support for loop_mode=one_shot
306        - fixed playback of 16 bit wav files on big endian CPUs
307        - added support for Ogg Vorbis sample files
308        - use loop markers from sample file if loop_start and loop_end are
309          not set in sfz file
310        - implemeted filters. Filter types: lowpass, bandpass, bandreject
311          and highpass. 1, 2, 4 and 6 pole filters. Opcodes: fil_type,
312          cutoff, resonance, fil_veltrack, fil_keytrack, fil_keycenter,
313          cutoff_cc, cutoff_chanaft.
314        - bugfix: zero ampeg_sustain didn't work
315        - added support for velocity effect on amplifier envelope time
316          (ampeg_vel2attack, ampeg_vel2decay, ampeg_vel2sustain and
317          ampeg_vel2release)
318        - added support for EG hold (ampeg_hold)
319        - added support for sample offset (offset)
320        - use the newly introduced signal units model

450        - AU bugfix: failed to destroy its audio/MIDI devices
451        - Listen to all interfaces on Mac OS X (INADDR_ANY)
452        - VST bugfix: If the host called resume() before and after
453          changing sample rate or block size, the number of channels was
454          incorrectly set to two. This caused silence in Cubase 5.
455        - save engine type (gig, sfz or sf2) in plugin state
456        - VST: when opening Fantasia, look for both 32 and 64 bit Java on
457          64 bit Windows
458        - AU: changed number of output channels from one stereo to 16
459          stereo

473        - VST: fixed crashes on Linux Ardour and EnergyXT
474        - DSSI bugfix: it wasn't possible to change engine type. The MIDI

488          informations like the EngineChannel for which the instrument editor was
489          spawned for. This allows the instrument editors to interact more actively
490          with the sampler.
491    
492      * MIDI driver:
493        - ALSA MIDI driver supports now "NAME" device parameter, for overriding
494          the ALSA sequencer client name

496          there is no reason for this limit
497        - MME: fixed memory handling bug found with cppcheck
498        - MME: removed compiler warning
499        - CoreMIDI: implemented driver specific port parameter "CORE_MIDI_BINDINGS",
500          which allows to retrieve the list of CoreMIDI clients / ports and to connect
501          to them a la JACK, via the usual sampler APIs
502        - CoreMIDI: added driver specific port parameter "AUTO_BIND", if enabled
503          the driver will automatically connect to other CoreMIDI clients' ports

512        - MME bugfix: driver wasn't closed properly
513        - CoreMIDI: automatically connect to all input sources by default (driver
514          parameter "AUTO_BIND").
515        - CoreMIDI: fixed auto bind feature to CoreMIDI ports that go online
516        - CoreMIDI: fixed minor memory leak
517    
518      * audio driver:
519        - ASIO driver fixes for newer gcc versions (fix from PortAudio)
520        - JACK audio: react on sample rate changes.

523          RT context.
524        - ASIO driver: removed compiler warnings
525        - CoreAudio: fixed minor error handling bug
526        - ASIO driver: be more verbose when no ASIO card could be found (fixes #203)

579        - Added support for built-in LSCP reference documentation, which will
580          automatically show the relevant LSCP reference section on screen as soon
581          as one specific LSCP command was detected while typing on the command

643        - bugfix: calling SET VOICES (which Fantasia does on start and
644          refresh) could cause instruments to be unloaded
645        - Mac OS X: fixed name collision of enum in EffectControl and
646          wrong name of destructor in AudioOutputDeviceCoreAudio.cpp
647        - Mac OS X: fixed hanging threads

651          after MIDI/audio device creation failure
652        - When creating MIDI instrument map entries with "PERSISTENT" type, the
653          instruments were uselessly precached with zero samples, however it still
654          took the full preloading time and on 1st program change the respective
655          instrument was completely reloaded again.
656        - fixed handling of rapid bank select and program change messages
657          sent to the same sampler channel (patch from the Open Octave

671          introduced in previous fix)
672        - fixed crash when a channel received a program change while
673          playing a note in a key group
674        - fixed erroneous error message piping in VoiceBase.h
675          (labelled "Disk stream not available in time")
676        - Update effects on sample rate & period size changes (to avoid
677          crashes and noise on such transitions).
678        - ignore missing LADSPA paths without ignoring valid LADSPA paths
679          (fixes #208)
680        - Fixed bug in LSCP grammar definition which caused a statement like
681          "GET SERVER INFOasdf\n" to be accepted as valid statement (was so far
682          practically irrelevant, however it caused problems with the new LSCP
683          shell's auto completion feature).
684        - Fixed MIDI program change messages being ignored if quickly executed
685          after each other (fixes #231).
