* Exclusive Groups: don't ever stop voices of the same note,
  doesn't sound naturally with a drumkit.

1 Version CVS HEAD (?)
2
3 * packaging changes:
4 - fixed building with newer MinGW-w64
5 - Mac OS X: support the new dir for Core Audio SDK
6 - Mac OS X: fixed building outside source directory
7 - made sure all source files for hostplugins are included when
8 doing "make dist"
9 - removed empty directories left from the cvs to svn migration
10 - fixed compilation with gcc 4.6.1
11 - another "make dist" fix, for the LV2 plugin
12 - made --enable-pthread-testcancel default on Mac OS X
13 - minor Makefile fix for building lscpparser when build and source
14 directories are separate
15 - Mac OS X: made it possible to specify plugin installation dir to
16 configure
17 - Mac OS X: Makefile fix for the install-strip target
18 - fixed compilation with gcc 4.7
19 - fixed configure script error with old autoconf versions
20 - lsatomic.h: use gcc provided atomic functions if building with
21 gcc 4.7 and C++11
22 - modernized configure script
23 - fixed linkage error when building with
24 LDFLAGS="-Wl,--no-undefined" (#190)
25 - fixed compilation with Clang 3.2
26
27 * general changes:
28 - Refactoring: moved the independent code from
29 the Gigasampler format engine to base classes
30 - command line option '--profile' is currently disabled, since the
31 respective profiling code is currently broken
32 - Introduced support for optional environment variable
33 "LINUXSAMPLER_PLUGIN_DIR" which allows to override the directory
34 where the sampler shall look for instrument editor plugins
35 (patch by Luis Garrido, slightly modified).
36 - implemented Roland GS NRPN 1ArrH which allows to set volume per note
37 - implemented Roland GS NRPN 1CrrH which allows to set pan per note
38 - implemented Roland GS NRPN 1DrrH which allows to set reverb send per
39 note (in this implementation of the sampler its simply hard routed to
40 the 1st effect send of the sampler channel, no matter what the actual
41 effect type is)
42 - implemented Roland GS NRPN 1ErrH which allows to set chorus send per
43 note (in this implementation of the sampler its simply hard routed to
44 the 2nd effect send of the sampler channel, no matter what the actual
45 effect type is)
46 - implemented support for internal LADSPA effects
47 - raised limit of program change queue from 100 to 512
48 (as suggested by Alex Stone)
49 - implemented sine LFO, pulse LFO and saw LFO
50 - experimental support for per voice equalization
51 - added command line option --exec-after-init
52 - Introduced new C++ API method:
53 EngineChannel::InstrumentFileName(int index)
54 allowing to retrieve the whole list of files used for the loaded
55 instrument on an engine channel (a.k.a. part). Some GigaStudio
56 instruments for example are splitted over several files like
57 "Foo.gig", "Foo.gx01", "Foo.gx02", ...
58 - Added new C++ API method Sampler::GetGlobalMaxVoices().
59 - Added new C++ API method Sampler::GetGlobalMaxStreams().
60 - Added new C++ API method Sampler::SetGlobalMaxVoices().
61 - Added new C++ API method Sampler::SetGlobalMaxStreams().
62 - Various "const" and "restrict" optimizations.
63 - all engines: add pan CC value to instrument pan parameter before
64 applying panning, instead of using two separate pan functions in
65 series (#182)
66
67 * Gigasampler format engine:
68 - implemented the "round robin keyboard" dimension
69 - fixed round robin and random dimensions for cases when number of
70 dimension zones is not a power of two
71 - made round robin use a counter for each region instead of each
72 key
73 - bugfix: pitch LFO controller "internal+aftertouch" was broken
74 - bugfix: filter keyboard tracking was broken
75 - filter performance fix (an unnecessary copy was made of the
76 filter parameters in each sub fragment)
77 - handle special case when pan parameter in gig file has max or
78 min value
79 - Exclusive Groups: don't ever stop voices of the same note,
80 doesn't sound naturally with a drumkit
81
82 * SFZ format engine:

250 - VST bugfix: If the host called resume() before and after
251 changing sample rate or block size, the number of channels was
252 incorrectly set to two. This caused silence in Cubase 5.
253 - save engine type (gig, sfz or sf2) in plugin state
254 - VST: when opening Fantasia, look for both 32 and 64 bit Java on

294 - CoreMIDI: added driver specific port parameter "AUTO_BIND", if enabled
295 the driver will automatically connect to other CoreMIDI clients' ports
296 (e.g. external MIDI devices being attached to the Mac)
297 - added support for MIDI note on velocity filter
298 - CoreMIDI: fixed memory deallocation error
299 - Fixed variable underflow in VirtualMidiDevice, which caused graphical

363 took the full preloading time and on 1st program change the respective
364 instrument was completely reloaded again.
365 - fixed handling of rapid bank select and program change messages
366 sent to the same sampler channel (patch from the Open Octave
367 project, slightly adjusted)

413 plugin DLL on Windows systems failed
414 - fixed memory leaks that occurred when liblinuxsampler was unloaded
415 - optimized the SynchronizedConfig class so it doesn't wait
416 unnecessarily long after an update
417 - added support for notifying instrument editors on note-on / note-off
418 events (e.g. to highlight the pressed keys on the virtual keyboard
419 of gigedit)
420 - added support for triggering notes by instrument editors (see above)
421 - be verbose on DLL load errors (on Linux)
422 - fixed di-harmonic triangle LFO implementation (this LFO implementation
423 is only used by very few systems, most pick the int math
424 implementation, which is usually faster)
425 - fixes for audio drivers with varying buffer sizes
426 - experimental support for running LinuxSampler as a DSSI, LV2 and
427 VST plugin
428 - notification events for stream/voice count statistics are now sent
429 only when there are actual changes
430 - added memory ordering constraints to improve stability on
431 multi-core and multi-cpu systems
432 - maximum voices and disk streams can now be altered at runtime
433 - fixed CPU feature detection on x86_64 (maybe fixes #108)
434 - automatic stacktrace mechanism is now turned off by default and can
435 be switched on by command line option "--stacktrace" (the automatic
436 stacktrace mechanism seems to be broken on most systems at the moment)
437 - C++ API method InstrumentManager::LaunchInstrumentEditor() now returns
438 a pointer to the launched InstrumentEditor object
439 - added optional 3rd party user data parameter for following
440 liblinuxsampler C++ API methods: InstrumentEditor::Main(),
441 InstrumentEditor::Launch(),
442 InstrumentManager::LaunchInstrumentEditor()
443 - theoretical fix: made SynchronizedConfig follow C++0x memory
444 model more strictly
445 - fixes for using large audio device buffers
446 - Windows: add the installation directory to the DLL search path
447 when loading an editor plugin (solves problems with VST and
448 gigedit on systems with other GTK versions installed)
449
450 * audio driver:
451 - removed the nonsense audio channel constraint (which was hard coded to
452 max. 100 audio channels) for most audio drivers
453 - JACK audio driver did not offer a device parameter "SAMPLERATE" as
454 opposed to the LSCP specs
455 - bugfix: the SAMPLERATE parameter of some drivers (e.g. JACK)
456 reflected the wrong value
457 - fixed a memory management bug in ASIO driver
458 - Makefile fix: JACK_CFLAGS wasn't used
459 - JACK: use jack_client_open instead of the deprecated
460 jack_client_new
461 - added (experimental) CoreAudio driver
462 - applied old fixes to the ASIO driver that were included in the
463 previous binary release but accidentally never committed to CVS
464 (fixes #117)
465 - fixes for ASIO on mingw-w64 (iasio wrapper is not needed on
466 win64)
467 - VST: added support for sample rate and buffer size changes
468 - VST: close editor (Fantasia) when the VST is removed
469 - VST: avoid opening Fantasia more than once for each VST instance
470 - VST: export main function as "main" on Linux too (fix for
471 energyXT)
472 - VST: changed number of output channels from one stereo to 16
473 stereo
474 - added channel routing, fxsends and midi maps to the settings
475 stored in the plugin state
476 - performance optimization of AudioChannel::MixTo() and
477 AudioChannel::CopyTo() methods using GCC vector exensions
478 (if available)
479 - ASIO fixes: avoid initializing the device twice, avoid throwing
480 exception when getting parameters from a disconnected device
481
482 * MIDI driver:
483 - added JACK MIDI driver
484 - dispatch bank select as ordinary CC as well, the user might seriously
485 want to (mis)use it for some purpose ("fixed" in all current MIDI
486 input drivers: ALSA, CoreMIDI, JACK, MidiShare, MME)
487 - bugfix: pitch bend wasn't working with JackMidi, VST, LV2, MME,
488 CoreMidi or AU
489 - fixed mingw-w64 compilation error in MME driver
490 - made program change handling in MIDI thread real-time safe by
491 moving the logic to a non-RT thread
492 - fixed minor memory leak in ALSA driver
493
494 * instruments database:
495 - avoid time consuming samples scanning when adding instruments
496 to the instruments database
497 - added support for handling lost files in the instruments database
498 - Implemented option for adding instruments in separate directories
499 in the instruments database
500 (patch by Chris Cherrett & Andrew Williams, a bit adjusted)
501 - work-around for missing fnmatch function on Windows to make
502 instrument database compilable
503 - added instrument database support on Windows
504 works with both standalone mode and VST plugin.
505 the instruments DB file is located in
506 %USERPROFILE%\.linuxsampler\instruments.db which allows different
507 databases for each windows user
508 if no DB is present it automatically creates the .linuxsampler subdir
509 and then creates an empty DB
510 - fixed recursive import, which was broken on Windows
511
512 * Gigasampler format engine:
513 - fixed a memory leak that could happen when a channel was deleted
514 while notes were playing
515 - made it possible to load an instrument even if the audio thread
516 isn't running
517 - added partial support for the "Controller Triggered" MIDI rule,
518 enough for piano gigs with pedal noise samples
519 - minor fix: only mark FX sends as being modified if really the
520 respective FX send MIDI controller was used
521 - added support for GM global device volume SysEx message
522 (can be selected at compile time to either apply globally to the
523 whole sampler [default] or only to the sampler channels that are
524 connected to the respective MIDI input port the SysEx message arrived
525 on)
526 - bugfix: notes triggered at position 0 in the audio buffer were
527 sometimes wrongly killed in the same buffer, causing no sound to
528 be played
529 - added support for chromatic / drumkit mode Roland GS Sysex message
530 which is usally used to switch a part between chromatic sounds and
531 drumkit sounds (as opposed to their common default setting of MIDI
532 part 10 being a drumkit part and all other ones chromatic parts), in
533 LS however one can switch between the first 16 MIDI instrument maps
534 defined for the sampler
535 - made it possible to create multiple sample channels even if the
536 audio thread isn't running
537 - fixed crash when removing channel with active voices (#116)
538 - bugfix: on sample reference changes (instrument editor), only
539 un-cache the respective sample if it's really not used by any
540 sampler engine anymore
541 - re-cache samples in case they were changed by an instrument editor,
542 e.g. when a sample was added while playing (#82)
543 - fixed hanging notes which occured when note-off event had the exact
544 same time stamp as the voice's note-on event and occured both in the
545 same audio fragment cycle (fixes bug #112)
546 - added support for the "fine tune" and "pitch bend range"
547 instrument-level gig parameters
548 - fixed minor artifacts in pitch bend handling
549 - added support for GS Reset SysEx message
550 - allow gig files to use unlimited downward pitch shifting
551 - added a limit check for upward pitch shifting
552 - bugfix: sometimes, when playing a note twice fast, the second
553 note was silent
554 - fixed crash happening when a pitch bend event arrived at the
555 same time a new instrument was loading
556
557 * LSCP server:
558 - added new LSCP event "CHANNEL_MIDI" which can be used by frontends to
559 react on MIDI data arriving on certain sampler channels (so far only
560 Note-On and Note-Off events are sent via this LSCP event)
561 - added new LSCP event "DEVICE_MIDI" which can be used by frontends to
562 react on MIDI data arriving on certain MIDI input devices (so far only
563 Note-On and Note-Off events are sent via this LSCP event)
564 - added new LSCP commands: FIND LOST DB_INSTRUMENT_FILES and
565 SET DB_INSTRUMENT FILE_PATH
566 - added new LSCP command: SEND CHANNEL MIDI_DATA which can be used by
567 frontends to send MIDI messages to specific sampler channel
568 - added two additional fields to GET FILE INSTRUMENT INFO command -
569 KEY_BINDINGS and KEYSWITCH_BINDINGS
570 - bugfix: the bank number provided by MIDI_INSTRUMENT_INFO notifications
571 was incorrect
572 - Optimized the retrieval of the MIDI instrument mappings
573 - added new LSCP command "SET VOICES" to globally alter the maximum
574 amount of voices, added new LSCP event "GLOBAL_INFO:VOICES" which will
575 be triggered respectively
576 - added new LSCP command "SET STREAMS" to globally alter the maximum
577 amount of disk streams, added new LSCP event "GLOBAL_INFO:STREAMS"
578 which will be triggered respectively
579 - bugfix: retry if "select" returns EINTR (this fixes a crash when
580 a gigedit file dialog is opened)
581 - close all connections when LSCPServer is deleted
582 - hard close of all sockets on exit
583 - bugfix: SET CHANNEL MIDI_INPUT_TYPE didn't work with the MME
584 driver
585
586 * Bug fixes:
587 - fixed a crash which occurs when removing a sampler channel waiting
588 to start instrument loading after another channel
589 - fixed a crash which occurs when removing a sampler channel with
590 instrument loading in progress (bug #113)
591 - fixed termination caused by uncaught exception when adding MIDI
592 instrument with PERSISTENT load mode
593 - fixed possible iterator invalidations when resetting the sampler
594 - fixed memory leaks when issuing the following LSCP commands:
595 GET AUDIO_OUTPUT_DRIVER INFO
596 GET AUDIO_OUTPUT_DRIVER_PARAMETER INFO
597 GET MIDI_INPUT_DRIVER INFO
598 GET MIDI_INPUT_DRIVER_PARAMETER INFO
599 - fixed possible compilation error when sqlite is not present
600 - fixed orphaned pointers when setting maximum voices limit (bug #118)
601 - fixed crash when changing the audio output device of a sampler
602 channel with loaded instrument and start playing notes
603 - fixed endless loop in Engine::SuspendAll() (bug #120)
604 - fixed a low-level atomic load function that was broken on 64-bit
605 PowerPC, which probably could cause crashes on that platform
606 - fixed a memory management error which could cause a crash when a
607 plugin was unloaded
608 - bugfix: two private structs had the same name, which could cause
609 problems if the linker chose the wrong constructor
610 - fixed low-level ConditionServer usage bug that caused lockups on
611 Windows
612
613
614 Version 0.5.1 (6 December 2007)
615
616 * packaging changes:
617 - added autoconf checks for pthread library
618 - added autoconf check for pthread bug found on certain NPTL-enabled
619 glibc versions (see Gentoo bug report #194076)
620 - added autoconf checks for MS Windows
621
622 * general changes:
623 - bugfix: the thread used by an editor plugin didn't die when the
624 editor closed
625 - bugfix: Ringbuffer.h: fill_write_space_with_null() did not zero
626 out all the space. operator--() did not apply size_mask after
627 decrementing the read_ptr. DEFAULT_WRAP_ELEMENTS set to 0 in
628 order to avoid problems with the _NonVolatileReader functions.
629 - bugfix: Stream.h: added a missing divide by BytesPerSample in
630 GetWriteSpace(). Since this function is currently only used in
631 the stream's qsort() compare function, it didn't trigger any
632 bugs.
633 - Resampler.h, Synthesizer.h: cubic interpolation now works in
634 24bit mode too. Faster method to read 24bit words on little
635 endian machines (x86): replaced 3 byte reads + shifts with a 1
636 unaligned 32bit read and shift
637 - experimental support for MS Windows (MIDI input via MME, AUDIO
638 output via ASIO)
639 - made handling of SIGINT signal (Ctrl-C) a bit more robust
640 - support for monitoring the total number of active disk streams
641 (new LSCP commands: GET TOTAL_STREAM_COUNT,
642 SUBSCRIBE TOTAL_STREAM_COUNT, UNSUBSCRIBE TOTAL_STREAM_COUNT)
643
644 * AUDIO driver:
645 - added Windows ASIO low latency audio driver
646
647 * MIDI driver:
648 - added MME Windows MIDI driver
649
650 * LSCP server:
651 - added support for Windows style path / filenames, however with
652 forward slash path separators instead of backslash
653 (i.e. "C:/foo/bar.gig")
654 - allow naughty liblscp to send non-string device parameters within
655 apostrophes as well
656 - added new LSCP commands: "GET FILE INSTRUMENTS <file>",
657 "LIST FILE INSTRUMENTS <file>" and
658 "GET FILE INSTRUMENT INFO <file> <index>" for retrieving informations
659 about an arbitrary instrument file on the system where the sampler is
660 running on
661
662 Version 0.5.0 (15 October 2007)
663
664 * packaging changes:
665 - config.h is not going to be installed along with liblinuxsampler's
666 API header files anymore
667 - only the API relevant header (and source) files will be exported to
668 the Doxygen API documentation (explicitly listed in Doxyfile.in)
669 - added completely new XCode project files for Mac OSX which is now
670 capable to execute our autoconf environment, thus no need anymore
671 to maintain the compile time configuration file (osx/version.h) for
672 OSX manually (patch by Toshi Nagata)
673 - fixed buggy boolean --enable-foo / --disable-foo configure script
674 parameters
675 - global.h now only covers global definitions that are needed for the
676 C++ API header files, all implementation internal global definitions
677 are now in global_private.h
678 - atomic.h is not exposed to the C++ API anymore
679 - no need to include config.h anymore for using LS's API header files
680 - fixed warnings in API doc generation
681
682 * general changes:
683 - replaced the old, confusing MIDI program change mechanism by a
684 flexible MIDI instrument mapper which allows to map arbitrary
685 (MIDI bank, MIDI program) pairs with arbitrary
686 (engine type, instrument file, file index) triplets which will be
687 loaded on the respective channel when such MIDI program change
688 messages arrive, beside that, each entry allows to define a life-time
689 strategy for the instrument, so the user can define whether the
690 instrument should i.e. be permanently loaded (to be able to switch
691 quickly among sounds) or i.e. loaded just on demand when the
692 respective program change arrives (to safe RAM space), as well as a
693 global volume factor for each entry, so the user can adjust the volume
694 dynamic of his mapped instrument collection without having to modify
695 the instrument files, also one can manage arbitrary amount of such
696 MIDI instrument maps and assign each sampler channel individually
697 a certain map, so that i.e. separation of normal instruments and
698 drumkits is possible
699 - new notification events for tracking changes to audio/MIDI devices,
700 MIDI instrument maps, MIDI instruments, FX sends, global volume.
701 - sampler was limited to load max. 200 instruments in the background
702 due to a constant size RingBuffer FIFO which is now replaced by a
703 dynamic (unlimited) size std::list FIFO
704 - added FX sends, these allow to route audio signals to arbitrary audio
705 output channels for being processed by external effect processors
706 (i.e. jack-rack), the send levels are controllable via arbitrary MIDI
707 controllers
708 - global (sampler wide) volume can now be controlled at runtime
709 - Implemented new, improved notification system
710 - fixed compilation errors regarding OSX
711 (patch by Toshi Nagata)
712 - implemented instruments database
713 - added support for escape sequences to the instruments database
714 - added highly experimental support for on-the-fly instrument editing
715 within the sampler's process (by using instrument editor plugins),
716 you'll notice the new "Registered instrument editors:" message on
717 startup, added a new LSCP command:
718 "EDIT CHANNEL INSTRUMENT <sampler-channel>"
719 to spawn a matching instrument editor for the instrument on the
720 given sampler channel, the plugin path can be overridden at compile
721 time with ./configure --enable-plugin-dir=/some/dir
722 - added experimental code for synchronizing instrument editors hosted
723 in the sampler's process to safely edit instruments while playing
724 without a crash (hopefully) by either suspending single regions
725 wherever possible or if unavoidable whole engine(s)
726 - fixed several issues in fundamental "Thread" class: set scheduling
727 policy and priority on thread level, set a minimum stack size for
728 thread (TODO: a reasonable value yet to be tested), bugfix: non-RT
729 threads simply inherited properties of starting thread instead of
730 setting their own policy and priority
731 - minor fix in our automatic stack trace mechanism on crashes, the
732 main process did not wait for the stack trace process to finish
733 its output
734 - fixed some minor memory leaks
735 - reenabled assembly features support, at the moment only for
736 enabling a fast denormal FPU mode (x86 platforms supporting SSE2)
737 - minor assembly fix in x86 features detection (don't use the PIC
738 register, to avoid relocations in the text segment at runtime)
739 - POSIX callback functions of Thread.h are hidden
740
741 * MIDI driver:
742 - dispatch bank select (MSB and LSB) messages
743
744 * audio driver:
745 - the ALSA audio output driver parameters now reflect the correct
746 parameter value ranges for the respective selected sound card
747 (patch by Till Wimmer, a bit fixed and extended)
748
749 * Gigasampler format engine:
750 - if a filter is used and EG2 finishes before EG1, let the voice
751 die when EG2 has finished (this fixes a problem with clicks and
752 voice starvation for some gigs)
753 - playback is no longer disabled during instrument loading
754 - all notes playing on a channel that changes its instrument keep
755 playing with the old instrument until they get a note off
756 command
757 - EG fix: a release value of zero could cause noises or crash
758 - handle MIDI coarse tuning messages (MIDI RPN #0 MSB #2 LSB)
759 - EG fine tuning: when attack is zero the EG starts at a level
760 above max sustain level, which means that there is a decay phase
761 even if sustain is 100%
762 - more EG fixes: the level could sometimes go below zero and cause
763 noises or crashes
764 - minor fix of EGDecay (patch by Toshi Nagata)
765 - fixed compiler error when --enable-override-filter-type was
766 supplied to the configure script (fixes #46)
767 - disk thread: queue sizes are now proportional to CONFIG_MAX_STREAMS
768 instead of a fix value
769 - behavior fix: on MIDI CC# 65 (portamento on / off), 126 (mono mode),
770 127 (solo mode) only kill voices if the respective mode really
771 changed
772
773 * LSCP server:
774 - fixed compile time error for old Bison versions
775 (i.e. v1.28 found on MacOS 10.4, patch by Toshi Nagata)
776 - parser now supports extended ASCII character set
777 (up to ASCII code 255, i.e. includes now umlauts and accents)
778 - filename arguments in LSCP commands now allow to use escape
779 sequences, that is directly literal as one of: \', \", \\, \n, \r,
780 \f, \t, \v, or as octal ASCII code value like \132, or as hex ASCII
781 code value like \xf2) (fixes bug #24)
782 - the following LSCP commands now also support escape sequences for at
783 least one of their text-based parameters (i.e. name, description):
784 "ADD MIDI_INSTRUMENT_MAP", "MAP MIDI_INSTRUMENT",
785 "SET MIDI_INSTRUMENT_MAP NAME", "SET FX_SEND NAME", "CREATE FX_SEND",
786 "SET DB_INSTRUMENT_DIRECTORY NAME",
787 "SET DB_INSTRUMENT_DIRECTORY DESCRIPTION", "SET DB_INSTRUMENT NAME",
788 "SET DB_INSTRUMENT DESCRIPTION", "FIND DB_INSTRUMENTS",
789 "FIND DB_INSTRUMENT_DIRECTORIES"
790 - returns verbose syntax errors (line and column where syntax error
791 occured, the unexpected character and the actually expected, possible
792 character(s), the latter only if less than 5 possibilities)
793 - made sure that LSCP syntax is not affected by gigedit locale
794 settings
795 - bugfix regarding strings parameter lists: all comma separated lists
796 of strings were treated as being one string containing commas
797 (fixes #57)
798
799 * Bug fixes:
800 - fixed crash occurring on certain LSCP scripts (Bug 39)
801 - another thread safety fix for lscp "load engine" and "set
802 channel audio output device"
803 - fixed a crash which occurs when reassigning the same engine
804 on a sampler channel with connected MIDI device
805 - fixed a crash which occurs when changing the number of ports of a MIDI
806 device connected to a sampler channel to number less then or equal
807 to the index of the port to which the sampler channel is connected.
808 - The previous bindings were not been disconnected when altering
809 the ALSA_SEQ_BINDINGS parameter. Introduced a NONE keyword for
810 unsubscribing from all bindings (e.g. ALSA_SEQ_BINDINGS=NONE).
811 - The active stream/voice count statistic was incorrect.
812 - notification events were not been sent for some sampler
813 channel changes
814 - added default min and max values to restrict the number of allowed
815 audio output channels and MIDI input ports
816 - the connection to the PCM interface is now closed when destroying
817 an audio output device
818 - files with slash in their path or filename could not be loaded
819
820 * test cases:
821 - updated and fixed (haven't been touched in a while)
822
823 Version 0.4.0 (24 November 2006)
824
825 * packaging changes:
826 - changed deprecated copyright attribute to license; added ldconfig
827 to post-(un)install steps; added devel package for liblinuxsampler;
828 to linuxsampler.spec (RPM)
829 - install necessary development header files for allowing 3rd party
830 applications to link against liblinuxsampler
831 - liblinuxsampler's API documentation can be generated with 'make docs'
832 (Doxygen required)
833 - added benchmark to automatically detect the best triangle LFO
834 implementation (currently either an integer math solution or a
835 di-harmonic approximation), automatic detection can be overriden
836 with --enable-signed-triang-algo=x and --enable-unsigned-triang-algo=x
837 configure script argument though (mandatory for cross-compilation)
838 - do not automatically pick optimized gcc flags if the user already
839 provided some on his own (as CXXFLAGS)
840 - added compile time option to disable processing of All-Notes-Off MIDI
841 messages
842 - added compile time options to allow disabling the various audio and
843 MIDI drivers
844 - fixed automatic GCC CPU switch detection on PPC
845 (patch by Ebrahim Mayat)
846
847 * Gigasampler format engine:
848 - extensive synthesis optimization
849 (reimplementation of EGs and LFO(s), removed synthesis parameter
850 prerendering and the synthesis parameter matrix in general, splitting
851 each audio fragment into subfragments now where each subfragment uses
852 constant pitch and filter coefficients. The volume coefficient is
853 linearly interpolated inside a subfragment, unless
854 --disable-interpolate-volume is set.)
855 - fine tuning of the EG modulation parameters
856 - improved filter cutoff calculation by adding support for the
857 following gig parameters: Cutoff freq (used when no cutoff
858 controller is defined), Control invert, Minimum cutoff, Velocity
859 curve and Velocity range. The keyboard tracking now scales
860 cutoff frequency instead of resonance.
861 - added support for gig parameter Resonance.
862 - fixed bug in sysex handling (patch by Juan Linietsky)
863 - added global volume attenuation of -9 dB (0.35f) to prevent clipping
864 which can be overridden with --enable-global-attenuation
865 - EG fixes: made the length of "attack hold" stage more
866 accurate. Release stage can now start before attack stage
867 ends. Cancel release didn't work when sustain was zero. Attack
868 time now has a minimal value to prevent clicks.
869 - fixed pitch changes larger than one octave
870 - fixed EG3 (pitch envelope) synthesis which was neutral all the time
871 - implemented portamento mode and solo mode (a.k.a 'mono mode'):
872 all modes can be altered via standard GM messages, that is CC5 for
873 altering portamento time, CC65 for enabling / disabling portamento
874 mode, CC126 for enabling solo mode and CC127 for disabling solo mode
875 - fine tuning of the curves for volume (CC7), pan (CC10 and gig
876 parameter) and crossfade
877 - added support for the "attenuation controller threshold" gig
878 parameter
879 - added smoothing of volume changes caused by control change
880 messages
881 - sample loop parameters are now taken from the DimensionRegion
882 instead of the wave chunk
883 - fixed keyswitching for v3 gigs with a number of keyswitch splits
884 not equal to a power of two
885 - reimplementation of the filter algorithm. The new filter is more
886 accurate and supports all gig filter types, including bandreject
887 and lowpass turbo.
888 - real support for 24 bit samples - samples are not truncated to
889 16 bits anymore
890 - support for aftertouch (channel pressure, not polyphonic
891 aftertouch)
892 - LFO1 behaviour fixed (dampening from max volume instead of
893 amplifying from 0)
894
895 * LSCP server:
896 - fixed application exit on broken pipe error (fixes bug #20)
897 - fixed the notification messages delay due to lack of
898 network activity (fixes bug #26)
899 - fixed parser bug which occured on space(s) within device parameters
900 (e.g. "SET AUDIO_OUTPUT_CHANNEL_PARAMETER 0 0 SOMEPARAM='foo bar'")
901
902 * audio driver:
903 - added aRts audio output driver (by no means RT safe)
904
905 * MIDI driver:
906 - fixed legacy sysex code which caused dispatching of MIDI SysEx
907 messages several times instead of once
908 - API extension for MIDI drivers which already supply exact time stamps
909 for events (i.e. for offline rendering based MIDI drivers)
910 - added checks for bad MIDI data
911
912 * linuxsampler application:
913 - show available sampler engine types on startup
914
915 * general changes:
916 - support for muting sampler channels and solo mode of the same, two new
917 LSCP commands ("SET CHANNEL MUTE" and "SET CHANNEL SOLO") and two new
918 fields ("MUTE" and "SOLO") for command "GET CHANNEL INFO" were
919 introduced for this, the behavior is the same like on a mixer console
920 (patch by Grigor Iliev, a bit adjusted). Also added configure option
921 --enable-process-muted-channels which can be used to enable the
922 processing of muted channels.
923 - support for sostenuto pedal
924 - support for monitoring the total number of active voices
925 (new LSCP commands: GET TOTAL_VOICE_COUNT, GET TOTAL_VOICE_COUNT_MAX,
926 SUBSCRIBE TOTAL_VOICE_COUNT, UNSUBSCRIBE TOTAL_VOICE_COUNT)
927 - fixed some memory management errors
928 - fixed some concurrency problems that could lead to crashes when
929 LSCP commands were executed
930 - fixed crash when instrument loading failed previously on the same
931 sampler channel (fixes bug #36)
932
933 Version 0.3.3 (15 July 2005)
934
935 * packaging changes:
936 - fixed compilation with gcc 4.0
937
938 * Gigasampler format engine:
939 - LFO preprocessing was performed even though the respective LFO was
940 disabled by the instrument patch (minor efficiency fix)
941 - if period time of chosen audio device is too small (< MIN_RELEASE_TIME)
942 for volume ramp downs in the same fragment (needed for current voice
943 stealing implementation) then simply inform the user with a warning
944 about possible click sounds and reduce the volume ramp down
945 appropriately instead of cancelling the audio device connection
946
947 Version 0.3.2 (24 June 2005)
948
949 * packaging changes:
950 - updated autotools build files to compile on OS X
951 (conditional compilation of CoreMIDI and MidiShare drivers)
952 - hand-crafted assembly optimization code can be disabled with
953 './configure --disable-asm' (definitely not recommended)
954 - fixed 'make dist' rule to include all necessary files
955 - require automake (>= 1.5) for 'make -f Makefile.cvs'
956 (due to 'dist-bzip2' automake option)
957
958 * Gigasampler format engine:
959 - support for the gig parameters for "release velocity response" curves
960 - fine tuning of the EGADSR envelope
961 - volume of release triggered samples now depends on note-on velocity,
962 note length and gig parameter "release trigger decay" instead of
963 note-off velocity.
964 - revised voice stealing
965 (fixes crash and endless loop caused by voice stealing)
966 - don't reset scale tuning on instrument or audio output device change
967 - handle key group conflicts right at the beginning of each fragment
968 instead of when the respective voice is actually launched
969 (fixes undefined behavior if stolen voices belonged to a key group -
970 this case was followed by a "killed voice survived" error message)
971 - fixed minor issue with null/silence samples
972 (those stole voices even though they don't need a voice at all which
973 resulted in "voice stealing didn't work out" messages)
974 - don't reset volume, pan, pitch and MIDI controller values on
975 instrument or audio output device change
976
977 * LSCP server:
978 - fixed some crashes (patch by Grigor Iliev, fixes #19)
979 - fixed LSCP event "CHANNEL_INFO" notification
980 (e.g. did not notify on volume changes or MIDI program change events)
981
982 * linuxsampler application:
983 - added command line parameters --lscp-addr and --lscp-port to override
984 default IP address and port of LSCP server
985
986 Version 0.3.1 (24 May 2005)
987
988 * initial release
