Version SVN trunk (?) * SFZ format engine: - added support for , and #define (patch by Alby M) - Removed code duplication in SFZ file loading code. - Added support for sfz extension opcode 'script' which may be used to load real-time instrument script file (NKSP script language). - Implemented opcode set_ccN (initial patch by Giovanni Senatore). - Fixed unintended volume fade-in of voices under certain conditions. - sfz parser: allow missing space between header and opcode * Gigasampler/GigaStudio format engine: - Fixed clicks and pumping noise with Lowpass Turbo filter on very low cutoff settings. - Got rid of resembling an ancient GSt misbehavior which did not pitch at all if an up-pitch of more than 40 semi tones was requested (I don't think there is any stock gig sound that requires this behavior to resemble its original sound). * general changes: - fixed printf type errors (mostly in debug messages) - use unique_ptr instead of auto_ptr when building with C++11 - Added RTAVLTree class which is a real-time safe ordered multi-map, thus allowing to sort data efficiently in real-time safe manner. - RTList class: added methods for moving/inserting elements to arbitrary position within a list. - RTList class: added method fromPtr() for creating an Iterator object from a raw element pointer. - Attempt to partly fix resetting engine channels vs. resetting engine, an overall cleanup of the Reset*(), ConnectAudioDevice(), DisconnectAudioDevice() API methods would still be desirable though, because the current situation is still inconsistent and error prone. - Active voices are now internally grouped to "Note" objects, instead of being directly assigned to a keyboard key. This allows more fine graded processing of voices, which is i.e. required for certain instrument script features. - Fix: Release trigger voices were not spawned on sustain pedal up (CC #64) events. - Fix: Release trigger voices can now also distinguish correctly between note-off and sustain pedal up events. - All engines: Increased ramp speed of volume smoother and pan smoother (while slow rate of crossfade smoother is preserved) to allow quick volume and pan changes by instrument scripts for instance. - gig/sf2/sfz: Fixed aftertouch channel pressure events being processed properly and thus were ignored for certain uses. - Added new C++ API method VirtualMidiDevice::SendChannelPressureToSampler(). - windows, 32-bit: fixed potential crashes by making sure the stack in sub threads is 16-byte aligned - fixed numerous compiler warnings - Fixed invalid (note-on) event ID being assigned to new Note objects. - Revised fundamental C++ classes "Thread", "Mutex" and "Condition" which fixes potential undefined behavior. - Fixed Note object leak when triggering notes on keys which did not have a valid sample mapped (fixes bug #252). - Fixed compilation errors when compiling with CONFIG_DEVMODE enabled. * packaging changes: - removed unnecessary dependency to libuuid (originated by libgig's usage of it) - Automake: set environment variable GCC_COLORS=auto to allow GCC to auto detect whether it (sh/c)ould output its messages in color. * Real-time instrument scripts: - Implemented scheduler for delayed MIDI events and for suspended scripts. - Built-in script function "wait()": implemented support for function's "duration-us" argument, thus scripts using this function are now correctly resumed after the requested amount of microseconds. - Built-in script function "play_note()": implemented support for function's "duration-us" argument, thus notes triggered with this argument are now correctly released after the requested amount of microseconds. - Fix: script events were not cleared when engine channel was reset, potentially causing undefined behavior. - Fixed crash which happened when trying to reference an undeclared variable. - Built-in script function "play_note()": Added support for passing special value -1 for "duration-us" argument, which will cause the triggered note to be released once the original note was released. - Instrument script classes now exported with the liblinuxsampler C++ API. - Added new API method ScriptVM::syntaxHighlighting() which provides a convenient syntax highlighting backend for external instrument script editor applications. - Added new C++ API class "ScriptVMFactory". - Extended parser issues to provide not only first line and first column, but also last line and last column of issue (thus marking the precise span of the issue within the source code). - Reload script automatically after being modified by an instrument editor. - NKSP language grammar correction: allow empty event handler bodies like "on note end on". - Implemented built-in script function "change_vol()". - Implemented built-in script function "change_tune()". - Implemented built-in script function "change_pan()". - Implemented built-in script function "change_cutoff()". - Implemented built-in script function "change_reso()". - Implemented built-in script function "event_status()". - Added built-in script constants "$EVENT_STATUS_INACTIVE" and "$EVENT_STATUS_NOTE_QUEUE" both for being used as flags for "event_status()" function. - NKSP language: Added support for bitwise operators ".or.", ".and." and ".not.". - NKSP language scanner: Fixed IDs matching to require at least one character (i.e. when matching function names or variable names). - NKSP language scanner: disabled unusued rules. - Fixed behavior of play_note() and note_off() functions which must be distinguished engine internally from "real" MIDI note on/off events in order to avoid misbehaviors like hanging notes. - Implemented built-in script variable "$KSP_TIMER". - Implemented built-in script variable "$NKSP_REAL_TIMER". - Implemented built-in script variable "$NKSP_PERF_TIMER". - Implemented built-in script variable "$ENGINE_UPTIME". - Implemented built-in script function "inc()". - Implemented built-in script function "dec()". - NKSP language fix: division expressions were evaluated too often. - NKSP language fix: string concatenation operator was right associative instead of left (to right). -

NKSP Language: Added support for user defined script functions. - Implemented built-in script function "change_attack()". - Implemented built-in script function "change_decay()". - Implemented built-in script function "change_release()". - Fixed all change_*() built-in script functions to apply their synthesis parameter changes immediately in case the respective note was triggered at the same time, instead of scheduling the parameter change, especially because it would cause some parameter types's changes either to be ramped (i.e. change_vol()) or other types even to have not effect at all (i.e. change_attack()). - Implemented built-in script function "sh_left()". - Implemented built-in script function "sh_right()". - Implemented built-in script function "min()". - Implemented built-in script function "max()". - NKSP Fix: "init" event handler was not always executed when a script was loaded. - NKSP built-in wait() script function: abort script execution if a negative or zero wait time was passed as argument (since this is a common indication of a bug either of the script or even of the engine, which could lead to RT instability or even worse). - ScriptVM: Implemented automatic suspension of RT safety threatening scripts. - Provide more user friendly error messages on syntax errors. - Fixed NKSP parser warning "Not a statement" when assigning an initializer list to an array variable. -

Added built-in script function "get_event_par()" and implemented some of its possible parameter selections. - Added built-in script function "set_event_par()" and implemented some of its possible parameter selections. - Fixed a bunch of scheduler time related bugs. - Fixed polyphonic variables not being reset to zero after usage. - Built-in "ignore_event()" function: argument is now optional, like with built-in function "ignore_controller()". - Implemented built-in script function "change_velo()". - Implemented built-in script function "change_note()". - Adjusted behavior of "change_vol()" and "change_tune()" to a more intuitive behavior if used in combination with "change_vol_time()" or "change_tune_time()" respectively: now tuning/volume changes are only assigned (without delay) immediately to a new note if the respective timing function has not been called before, otherwise the volume/tuning changes are automatically faded (before, only the event's time stamp was relevant). - Implemented built-in script function "array_equal()". - Implemented built-in script function "search()". - Implemented built-in script function "sort()". - NKSP Fix: Never suspend "init" event handlers. - Implemented built-in script function "same_region()" (currently only available for gig format engine). - Added built-in script constant "$NKSP_LINEAR". - Added built-in script constant "$NKSP_EASE_IN_EASE_OUT". - Implemented built-in script function "change_vol_curve()". - Implemented built-in script function "change_tune_curve()". - built-in "play_note()" function now supports a sample playback start offset with argument 3, where special value -1 means to use the regular sample offset as defined by the instrument file. - Built-in array variable %KEY_DOWN[] is now a read-only variable. - Built-in variable $EVENT_NOTE is now a read-only variable. - Built-in variable $EVENT_VELOCITY is now a read-only variable. - built-in "play_note()" function now accepts -2 for its fourth argument (note duration) which means the life time of the note shall be sticked to the requested note number of argument 1. - Fix: built-in "play_note()" function now returns 0 as result value if -1 was passed for its fourth argument (note duration) and the respective parent note is already gone. - Implemented built-in script function "change_play_pos()". - NKSP language: Added support for user declared const array variables. - NKSP language: Raise parser warning if array variable is accessed with an index that exceeds the array's size. - NKSP language fix: Unknown characters were not handled correctly. - NKSP language: Added support for "synchronized .. end synchronized" code blocks. - Implemented built-in script function "abort()" which allows to abort another script handler by passing its callback ID. - Fixed potential memory access bug and potential undefined behavior of "init" event handlers. - Print a time stamp along to each call of built-in function "message()". - ScriptVM API: Added VMParserContext::preprocessorComments() which allows to retrieve all code blocks filtered out by the preprocessor. -

NKSP preprocessor: Fixed wrong behavior on nested USE_CODE_IF() and USE_CODE_IF_NOT() preprocessor statements. - NKSP: Added built-in preprocessor condition NKSP_NO_MESSAGE, which can be set to disable all subsequent built-in "message()" function calls on preprocessor level. - Implemented built-in script function "change_sustain()". * Instruments DB: - Fixed memory access bug of general DB access code which lead to undefined behavior. - Cleanup of instruments DB file creation and opening code. - The instrument DB path of linuxsampler's --create-instruments-db argument is now optional, if it is missing, then a default location is used. - Added support for scanning SFZ (.sfz) files. - Added support for scanning Sound Font (.sf2) files. - Fixed undefined DB transaction behavior.

initial implementation of Vibrato LFO and Modulation LFO - initial implementation of cutoff filter - use linear decay and release for filter and pitch EG * Host plugins (VST, AU, LV2, DSSI): - AU bugfix: failed to destroy its audio/MIDI devices - Listen to all interfaces on Mac OS X (INADDR_ANY) - VST bugfix: If the host called resume() before and after changing sample rate or block size, the number of channels was incorrectly set to two. This caused silence in Cubase 5. - save engine type (gig, sfz or sf2) in plugin state - VST: when opening Fantasia, look for both 32 and 64 bit Java on 64 bit Windows - AU: changed number of output channels from one stereo to 16 stereo - VST: made it possible to build the VST plugin for Mac - AU: link AU plugin dynamically if --disable-shared isn't specified - LV2 "state" extension support (patch by David Robillard) - VST bugfix: instrument loading hang and crashed the host when the plugin was loaded a second time (#174) - plugin bugfix: instrument loading hang when the plugin was loaded a second time (this time it's for Linux and Mac, previous similar fix was for Windows) - thread safety fixes for the instrument loading thread - LV2: use the new lv2 package if present - VST: try to open Fantasia automatically on Linux and Mac too (on Linux, the Fantasia jar should be placed in /share/java) - VST: fixed crashes on Linux Ardour and EnergyXT - DSSI bugfix: it wasn't possible to change engine type.

Mac OS X: fixed name collision of enum in EffectControl and wrong name of destructor in AudioOutputDeviceCoreAudio.cpp - Mac OS X: fixed hanging threads - Windows: disabled the previous thread fix on non-Mac systems, as it caused hanging threads on Windows - Fixed possible crashes due to corrupted MIDI/audio device list after MIDI/audio device creation failure - When creating MIDI instrument map entries with "PERSISTENT" type, the instruments were uselessly precached with zero samples, however it still took the full preloading time and on 1st program change the respective instrument was completely reloaded again. -

ignore missing LADSPA paths without ignoring valid LADSPA paths (fixes #208) - Fixed bug in LSCP grammar definition which caused a statement like "GET SERVER INFOasdf\n" to be accepted as valid statement (was so far practically irrelevant, however it caused problems with the new LSCP shell's auto completion feature). - Fixed MIDI program change messages being ignored if quickly executed after each other (fixes #231). Version 1.0.0 (31 July 2009) * packaging changes: - autoconf bugfix: the PKG_CONFIG variable wasn't initialized properly, causing e.g. the libgig test to fail when "./configure --disable-jack-driver" was used (patch by Alexis Ballier) -

added memory ordering constraints to improve stability on multi-core and multi-cpu systems - maximum voices and disk streams can now be altered at runtime - fixed CPU feature detection on x86_64 (maybe fixes #108) - automatic stacktrace mechanism is now turned off by default and can be switched on by command line option "--stacktrace" (the automatic stacktrace mechanism seems to be broken on most systems at the moment) - C++ API method InstrumentManager::LaunchInstrumentEditor() now returns a pointer to the launched InstrumentEditor object - added optional 3rd party user data parameter for following liblinuxsampler C++ API methods: InstrumentEditor::Main(), InstrumentEditor::Launch(), InstrumentManager::LaunchInstrumentEditor() - theoretical fix: made SynchronizedConfig follow C++0x memory model more strictly - fixes for using large audio device buffers - Windows: add the installation directory to the DLL search path when loading an editor plugin (solves problems with VST and gigedit on systems with other GTK versions installed) - updated linuxsampler man page * audio driver: - removed the nonsense audio channel constraint (which was hard coded to max. 100 audio channels) for most audio drivers - JACK audio driver did not offer a device parameter "SAMPLERATE" as opposed to the LSCP specs -

fixed minor memory leak in ALSA driver * instruments database: - avoid time consuming samples scanning when adding instruments to the instruments database - added support for handling lost files in the instruments database - Implemented option for adding instruments in separate directories in the instruments database (patch by Chris Cherrett & Andrew Williams, a bit adjusted) - work-around for missing fnmatch function on Windows to make instrument database compilable - added instrument database support on Windows works with both standalone mode and VST plugin. the instruments DB file is located in %USERPROFILE%\.linuxsampler\instruments.db which allows different databases for each windows user if no DB is present it automatically creates the .linuxsampler subdir and then creates an empty DB - fixed recursive import, which was broken on Windows * Gigasampler format engine: - fixed a memory leak that could happen when a channel was deleted while notes were playing - made it possible to load an instrument even if the audio thread isn't running - added partial support for the "Controller Triggered" MIDI rule, enough for piano gigs with pedal noise samples - minor fix: only mark FX sends as being modified if really the respective FX send MIDI controller was used - added support for GM global device volume SysEx message (can be selected at compile time to either apply globally to the whole sampler [default] or only to the sampler channels that are connected to the respective MIDI input port the SysEx message arrived on) - bugfix: notes triggered at position 0 in the audio buffer were sometimes wrongly killed in the same buffer, causing no sound to be played - added support for chromatic / drumkit mode Roland GS Sysex message which is usally used to switch a part between chromatic sounds and drumkit sounds (as opposed to their common default setting of MIDI part 10 being a drumkit part and all other ones chromatic parts), in LS however one can switch between the first 16 MIDI instrument maps defined for the sampler - made it possible to create multiple sample channels even if the audio thread isn't running - fixed crash when removing channel with active voices (#116) - bugfix: on sample reference changes (instrument editor), only un-cache the respective sample if it's really not used by any sampler engine anymore - re-cache samples in case they were changed by an instrument editor, e.g. when a sample was added while playing (#82) - fixed hanging notes which occured when note-off event had the exact same time stamp as the voice's note-on event and occured both in the same audio fragment cycle (fixes bug #112) - added support for the "fine tune" and "pitch bend range" instrument-level gig parameters - fixed minor artifacts in pitch bend handling - added support for GS Reset SysEx message - allow gig files to use unlimited downward pitch shifting - added a limit check for upward pitch shifting - bugfix: sometimes, when playing a note twice fast, the second note was silent - fixed crash happening when a pitch bend event arrived at the same time a new instrument was loading * LSCP server: - added new LSCP event "CHANNEL_MIDI" which can be used by frontends to react on MIDI data arriving on certain sampler channels (so far only Note-On and Note-Off events are sent via this LSCP event) - added new LSCP event "DEVICE_MIDI" which can be used by frontends to react on MIDI data arriving on certain MIDI input devices (so far only Note-On and Note-Off events are sent via this LSCP event) - added new LSCP commands: FIND LOST DB_INSTRUMENT_FILES and SET DB_INSTRUMENT FILE_PATH - added new LSCP command: SEND CHANNEL MIDI_DATA which can be used by frontends to send MIDI messages to specific sampler channel - added two additional fields to GET FILE INSTRUMENT INFO command - KEY_BINDINGS and KEYSWITCH_BINDINGS - bugfix: the bank number provided by MIDI_INSTRUMENT_INFO notifications was incorrect - Optimized the retrieval of the MIDI instrument mappings - added new LSCP command "SET VOICES" to globally alter the maximum amount of voices, added new LSCP event "GLOBAL_INFO:VOICES" which will be triggered respectively - added new LSCP command "SET STREAMS" to globally alter the maximum amount of disk streams, added new LSCP event "GLOBAL_INFO:STREAMS" which will be triggered respectively - bugfix: retry if "select" returns EINTR (this fixes a crash when a gigedit file dialog is opened) - close all connections when LSCPServer is deleted - hard close of all sockets on exit - bugfix: SET CHANNEL MIDI_INPUT_TYPE didn't work with the MME driver * Bug fixes: - fixed a crash which occurs when removing a sampler channel waiting to start instrument loading after another channel - fixed a crash which occurs when removing a sampler channel with instrument loading in progress (bug #113) - fixed termination caused by uncaught exception when adding MIDI instrument with PERSISTENT load mode - fixed possible iterator invalidations when resetting the sampler - fixed memory leaks when issuing the following LSCP commands: GET AUDIO_OUTPUT_DRIVER INFO GET AUDIO_OUTPUT_DRIVER_PARAMETER INFO GET MIDI_INPUT_DRIVER INFO GET MIDI_INPUT_DRIVER_PARAMETER INFO - fixed possible compilation error when sqlite is not present - fixed orphaned pointers when setting maximum voices limit (bug #118) - fixed crash when changing the audio output device of a sampler channel with loaded instrument and start playing notes - fixed endless loop in Engine::SuspendAll() (bug #120) - fixed a low-level atomic load function that was broken on 64-bit PowerPC, which probably could cause crashes on that platform - fixed a memory management error which could cause a crash when a plugin was unloaded - bugfix: two private structs had the same name, which could cause problems if the linker chose the wrong constructor - fixed low-level ConditionServer usage bug that caused lockups on Windows Version 0.5.1 (6 December 2007) * packaging changes: - added autoconf checks for pthread library - added autoconf check for pthread bug found on certain NPTL-enabled glibc versions (see Gentoo bug report #194076) - added autoconf checks for MS Windows * general changes: - bugfix: the thread used by an editor plugin didn't die when the editor closed - bugfix: Ringbuffer.h: fill_write_space_with_null() did not zero out all the space. operator--() did not apply size_mask after decrementing the read_ptr. DEFAULT_WRAP_ELEMENTS set to 0 in order to avoid problems with the _NonVolatileReader functions. - bugfix: Stream.h: added a missing divide by BytesPerSample in GetWriteSpace(). Since this function is currently only used in the stream's qsort() compare function, it didn't trigger any bugs. - Resampler.h, Synthesizer.h: cubic interpolation now works in 24bit mode too. Faster method to read 24bit words on little endian machines (x86): replaced 3 byte reads + shifts with a 1 unaligned 32bit read and shift - experimental support for MS Windows (MIDI input via MME, AUDIO output via ASIO) - made handling of SIGINT signal (Ctrl-C) a bit more robust - support for monitoring the total number of active disk streams (new LSCP commands: GET TOTAL_STREAM_COUNT, SUBSCRIBE TOTAL_STREAM_COUNT, UNSUBSCRIBE TOTAL_STREAM_COUNT) * AUDIO driver: - added Windows ASIO low latency audio driver * MIDI driver: - added MME Windows MIDI driver * LSCP server: - added support for Windows style path / filenames, however with forward slash path separators instead of backslash (i.e. "C:/foo/bar.gig") - allow naughty liblscp to send non-string device parameters within apostrophes as well - added new LSCP commands: "GET FILE INSTRUMENTS ", "LIST FILE INSTRUMENTS " and "GET FILE INSTRUMENT INFO " for retrieving informations about an arbitrary instrument file on the system where the sampler is running on Version 0.5.0 (15 October 2007) * packaging changes: - config.h is not going to be installed along with liblinuxsampler's API header files anymore - only the API relevant header (and source) files will be exported to the Doxygen API documentation (explicitly listed in Doxyfile.in) - added completely new XCode project files for Mac OSX which is now capable to execute our autoconf environment, thus no need anymore to maintain the compile time configuration file (osx/version.h) for OSX manually (patch by Toshi Nagata) - fixed buggy boolean --enable-foo / --disable-foo configure script parameters - global.h now only covers global definitions that are needed for the C++ API header files, all implementation internal global definitions are now in global_private.h - atomic.h is not exposed to the C++ API anymore - no need to include config.h anymore for using LS's API header files - fixed warnings in API doc generation * general changes: - replaced the old, confusing MIDI program change mechanism by a flexible MIDI instrument mapper which allows to map arbitrary (MIDI bank, MIDI program) pairs with arbitrary (engine type, instrument file, file index) triplets which will be loaded on the respective channel when such MIDI program change messages arrive, beside that, each entry allows to define a life-time strategy for the instrument, so the user can define whether the instrument should i.e. be permanently loaded (to be able to switch quickly among sounds) or i.e. loaded just on demand when the respective program change arrives (to safe RAM space), as well as a global volume factor for each entry, so the user can adjust the volume dynamic of his mapped instrument collection without having to modify the instrument files, also one can manage arbitrary amount of such MIDI instrument maps and assign each sampler channel individually a certain map, so that i.e. separation of normal instruments and drumkits is possible - new notification events for tracking changes to audio/MIDI devices, MIDI instrument maps, MIDI instruments, FX sends, global volume. - sampler was limited to load max. 200 instruments in the background due to a constant size RingBuffer FIFO which is now replaced by a dynamic (unlimited) size std::list FIFO - added FX sends, these allow to route audio signals to arbitrary audio output channels for being processed by external effect processors (i.e. jack-rack), the send levels are controllable via arbitrary MIDI controllers - global (sampler wide) volume can now be controlled at runtime - Implemented new, improved notification system - fixed compilation errors regarding OSX (patch by Toshi Nagata) - implemented instruments database - added support for escape sequences to the instruments database - added highly experimental support for on-the-fly instrument editing within the sampler's process (by using instrument editor plugins), you'll notice the new "Registered instrument editors:" message on startup, added a new LSCP command: "EDIT CHANNEL INSTRUMENT " to spawn a matching instrument editor for the instrument on the given sampler channel, the plugin path can be overridden at compile time with ./configure --enable-plugin-dir=/some/dir - added experimental code for synchronizing instrument editors hosted in the sampler's process to safely edit instruments while playing without a crash (hopefully) by either suspending single regions wherever possible or if unavoidable whole engine(s) - fixed several issues in fundamental "Thread" class: set scheduling policy and priority on thread level, set a minimum stack size for thread (TODO: a reasonable value yet to be tested), bugfix: non-RT threads simply inherited properties of starting thread instead of setting their own policy and priority - minor fix in our automatic stack trace mechanism on crashes, the main process did not wait for the stack trace process to finish its output - fixed some minor memory leaks - reenabled assembly features support, at the moment only for enabling a fast denormal FPU mode (x86 platforms supporting SSE2) - minor assembly fix in x86 features detection (don't use the PIC register, to avoid relocations in the text segment at runtime) - POSIX callback functions of Thread.h are hidden * MIDI driver: - dispatch bank select (MSB and LSB) messages * audio driver: - the ALSA audio output driver parameters now reflect the correct parameter value ranges for the respective selected sound card (patch by Till Wimmer, a bit fixed and extended) * Gigasampler format engine: - if a filter is used and EG2 finishes before EG1, let the voice die when EG2 has finished (this fixes a problem with clicks and voice starvation for some gigs) - playback is no longer disabled during instrument loading - all notes playing on a channel that changes its instrument keep playing with the old instrument until they get a note off command - EG fix: a release value of zero could cause noises or crash - handle MIDI coarse tuning messages (MIDI RPN #0 MSB #2 LSB) - EG fine tuning: when attack is zero the EG starts at a level above max sustain level, which means that there is a decay phase even if sustain is 100% - more EG fixes: the level could sometimes go below zero and cause noises or crashes - minor fix of EGDecay (patch by Toshi Nagata) - fixed compiler error when --enable-override-filter-type was supplied to the configure script (fixes #46) - disk thread: queue sizes are now proportional to CONFIG_MAX_STREAMS instead of a fix value - behavior fix: on MIDI CC# 65 (portamento on / off), 126 (mono mode), 127 (solo mode) only kill voices if the respective mode really changed * LSCP server: - fixed compile time error for old Bison versions (i.e. v1.28 found on MacOS 10.4, patch by Toshi Nagata) - parser now supports extended ASCII character set (up to ASCII code 255, i.e. includes now umlauts and accents) - filename arguments in LSCP commands now allow to use escape sequences, that is directly literal as one of: \', \", \\, \n, \r, \f, \t, \v, or as octal ASCII code value like \132, or as hex ASCII code value like \xf2) (fixes bug #24) - the following LSCP commands now also support escape sequences for at least one of their text-based parameters (i.e. name, description): "ADD MIDI_INSTRUMENT_MAP", "MAP MIDI_INSTRUMENT", "SET MIDI_INSTRUMENT_MAP NAME", "SET FX_SEND NAME", "CREATE FX_SEND", "SET DB_INSTRUMENT_DIRECTORY NAME", "SET DB_INSTRUMENT_DIRECTORY DESCRIPTION", "SET DB_INSTRUMENT NAME", "SET DB_INSTRUMENT DESCRIPTION", "FIND DB_INSTRUMENTS", "FIND DB_INSTRUMENT_DIRECTORIES" - returns verbose syntax errors (line and column where syntax error occured, the unexpected character and the actually expected, possible character(s), the latter only if less than 5 possibilities) - made sure that LSCP syntax is not affected by gigedit locale settings - bugfix regarding strings parameter lists: all comma separated lists of strings were treated as being one string containing commas (fixes #57) * Bug fixes: - fixed crash occurring on certain LSCP scripts (Bug 39) - another thread safety fix for lscp "load engine" and "set channel audio output device" - fixed a crash which occurs when reassigning the same engine on a sampler channel with connected MIDI device - fixed a crash which occurs when changing the number of ports of a MIDI device connected to a sampler channel to number less then or equal to the index of the port to which the sampler channel is connected. - The previous bindings were not been disconnected when altering the ALSA_SEQ_BINDINGS parameter. Introduced a NONE keyword for unsubscribing from all bindings (e.g. ALSA_SEQ_BINDINGS=NONE). - The active stream/voice count statistic was incorrect. - notification events were not been sent for some sampler channel changes - added default min and max values to restrict the number of allowed audio output channels and MIDI input ports - the connection to the PCM interface is now closed when destroying an audio output device - files with slash in their path or filename could not be loaded * test cases: - updated and fixed (haven't been touched in a while) Version 0.4.0 (24 November 2006) * packaging changes: - changed deprecated copyright attribute to license; added ldconfig to post-(un)install steps; added devel package for liblinuxsampler; to linuxsampler.spec (RPM) - install necessary development header files for allowing 3rd party applications to link against liblinuxsampler - liblinuxsampler's API documentation can be generated with 'make docs' (Doxygen required) - added benchmark to automatically detect the best triangle LFO implementation (currently either an integer math solution or a di-harmonic approximation), automatic detection can be overriden with --enable-signed-triang-algo=x and --enable-unsigned-triang-algo=x configure script argument though (mandatory for cross-compilation) - do not automatically pick optimized gcc flags if the user already provided some on his own (as CXXFLAGS) - added compile time option to disable processing of All-Notes-Off MIDI messages - added compile time options to allow disabling the various audio and MIDI drivers - fixed automatic GCC CPU switch detection on PPC (patch by Ebrahim Mayat) * Gigasampler format engine: - extensive synthesis optimization (reimplementation of EGs and LFO(s), removed synthesis parameter prerendering and the synthesis parameter matrix in general, splitting each audio fragment into subfragments now where each subfragment uses constant pitch and filter coefficients. The volume coefficient is linearly interpolated inside a subfragment, unless --disable-interpolate-volume is set.) - fine tuning of the EG modulation parameters - improved filter cutoff calculation by adding support for the following gig parameters: Cutoff freq (used when no cutoff controller is defined), Control invert, Minimum cutoff, Velocity curve and Velocity range. The keyboard tracking now scales cutoff frequency instead of resonance. - added support for gig parameter Resonance. - fixed bug in sysex handling (patch by Juan Linietsky) - added global volume attenuation of -9 dB (0.35f) to prevent clipping which can be overridden with --enable-global-attenuation - EG fixes: made the length of "attack hold" stage more accurate. Release stage can now start before attack stage ends. Cancel release didn't work when sustain was zero. Attack time now has a minimal value to prevent clicks. - fixed pitch changes larger than one octave - fixed EG3 (pitch envelope) synthesis which was neutral all the time - implemented portamento mode and solo mode (a.k.a 'mono mode'): all modes can be altered via standard GM messages, that is CC5 for altering portamento time, CC65 for enabling / disabling portamento mode, CC126 for enabling solo mode and CC127 for disabling solo mode - fine tuning of the curves for volume (CC7), pan (CC10 and gig parameter) and crossfade - added support for the "attenuation controller threshold" gig parameter - added smoothing of volume changes caused by control change messages - sample loop parameters are now taken from the DimensionRegion instead of the wave chunk - fixed keyswitching for v3 gigs with a number of keyswitch splits not equal to a power of two - reimplementation of the filter algorithm. The new filter is more accurate and supports all gig filter types, including bandreject and lowpass turbo. - real support for 24 bit samples - samples are not truncated to 16 bits anymore - support for aftertouch (channel pressure, not polyphonic aftertouch) - LFO1 behaviour fixed (dampening from max volume instead of amplifying from 0) * LSCP server: - fixed application exit on broken pipe error (fixes bug #20) - fixed the notification messages delay due to lack of network activity (fixes bug #26) - fixed parser bug which occured on space(s) within device parameters (e.g. "SET AUDIO_OUTPUT_CHANNEL_PARAMETER 0 0 SOMEPARAM='foo bar'") * audio driver: - added aRts audio output driver (by no means RT safe) * MIDI driver: - fixed legacy sysex code which caused dispatching of MIDI SysEx messages several times instead of once - API extension for MIDI drivers which already supply exact time stamps for events (i.e. for offline rendering based MIDI drivers) - added checks for bad MIDI data * linuxsampler application: - show available sampler engine types on startup * general changes: - support for muting sampler channels and solo mode of the same, two new LSCP commands ("SET CHANNEL MUTE" and "SET CHANNEL SOLO") and two new fields ("MUTE" and "SOLO") for command "GET CHANNEL INFO" were introduced for this, the behavior is the same like on a mixer console (patch by Grigor Iliev, a bit adjusted). Also added configure option --enable-process-muted-channels which can be used to enable the processing of muted channels. - support for sostenuto pedal - support for monitoring the total number of active voices (new LSCP commands: GET TOTAL_VOICE_COUNT, GET TOTAL_VOICE_COUNT_MAX, SUBSCRIBE TOTAL_VOICE_COUNT, UNSUBSCRIBE TOTAL_VOICE_COUNT) - fixed some memory management errors - fixed some concurrency problems that could lead to crashes when LSCP commands were executed - fixed crash when instrument loading failed previously on the same sampler channel (fixes bug #36) Version 0.3.3 (15 July 2005) * packaging changes: - fixed compilation with gcc 4.0 * Gigasampler format engine: - LFO preprocessing was performed even though the respective LFO was disabled by the instrument patch (minor efficiency fix) - if period time of chosen audio device is too small (< MIN_RELEASE_TIME) for volume ramp downs in the same fragment (needed for current voice stealing implementation) then simply inform the user with a warning about possible click sounds and reduce the volume ramp down appropriately instead of cancelling the audio device connection Version 0.3.2 (24 June 2005) * packaging changes: - updated autotools build files to compile on OS X (conditional compilation of CoreMIDI and MidiShare drivers) - hand-crafted assembly optimization code can be disabled with './configure --disable-asm' (definitely not recommended) - fixed 'make dist' rule to include all necessary files - require automake (>= 1.5) for 'make -f Makefile.cvs' (due to 'dist-bzip2' automake option) * Gigasampler format engine: - support for the gig parameters for "release velocity response" curves - fine tuning of the EGADSR envelope - volume of release triggered samples now depends on note-on velocity, note length and gig parameter "release trigger decay" instead of note-off velocity. - revised voice stealing (fixes crash and endless loop caused by voice stealing) - don't reset scale tuning on instrument or audio output device change - handle key group conflicts right at the beginning of each fragment instead of when the respective voice is actually launched (fixes undefined behavior if stolen voices belonged to a key group - this case was followed by a "killed voice survived" error message) - fixed minor issue with null/silence samples (those stole voices even though they don't need a voice at all which resulted in "voice stealing didn't work out" messages) - don't reset volume, pan, pitch and MIDI controller values on instrument or audio output device change * LSCP server: - fixed some crashes (patch by Grigor Iliev, fixes #19) - fixed LSCP event "CHANNEL_INFO" notification (e.g. did not notify on volume changes or MIDI program change events) * linuxsampler application: - added command line parameters --lscp-addr and --lscp-port to override default IP address and port of LSCP server Version 0.3.1 (24 May 2005) * initial release
