4     ChangeLog
5    
6 capela 1234 CVS HEAD
7    
8 capela 1372 * Added new button "Edit" to the channel strips, which probably
9     does exactly what you think it does: it opens an appropriate
10     instrument editor application; the channel instrument editor
11     tool is also accessible from the main menu and toolbar.
12    
13 capela 1255 * Application icon is now installed to ${prefix}/share/pixmaps;
14     application desktop entry file is now included in installation;
15     spec file (RPM) is now a bit more openSUSE compliant.
16    
17 capela 1234 * Crash fix on double-clicking on a empty instrument list.
18    
19    
20 capela 1166 0.1.4 2007-05-04 Almost another year has gone by.
21 schoenebeck 736
22 capela 1036 * Channel button colors have changed: yellow for mute and
23     cyan for solo is now the rule, but note that this color
24     highlighting is only rendered on some widget styles.
25    
26 capela 1034 * Master sampler volume slider/spinbox combo is now featured.
27    
28 capela 1024 * Initial support for sampler channel FX sends, while saving
29     the session state, only at code-level.
30 capela 1036
31 capela 1016 * Sampler channel setup dialog does not mandate for valid nor
32 capela 1018 existing instrument file name.
33 capela 1016
34 capela 987 * Revised error verbosity in general and on session load/save;
35     hour-glass wait cursor is now displayed on session load/save;
36     keyboard shortcuts changed on MIDI instruments view context;
37     improved channel strip arrangement on session open/load;
38     instrument map entry removal confirmation (as optional);
39     corrected some tooltip text strings.
40 capela 971
41 capela 968 * Most top-level widgets were missing the normal-widget flag,
42     which were causing some sticky size behavior while on some
43     window managers.
44    
45 capela 961 * Added preliminary MIDI instrument mapping support; now
46 capela 1016 with an instrument list widget and editing capabilities;
47     MIDI instrumeent map program numbers are now displayed in
48     the range 1-128, instead of the internal 0-127.
49 capela 957
50 capela 969 * GPL address update.
51 capela 920
52    
53 capela 870 0.1.3 2006-06-01 Its been a long year isn't it?
54    
55     * Changed deprecated copyright attribute to license,
56     on qsampler.spec (RPM).
57    
58 capela 847 * Added configure support for x86_64 libraries (UNTESTED).
59    
60 capela 825 * Optional specification of alternate liblscp and libgig
61     installation paths have been added to configure command
62     arguments (--with-liblscp, --with-libgig).
63    
64 capela 824 * Whenever the listing of actual instrument names is not an
65     option (e.g. due to lack of libgig support), the whole
66     number of selectable instrument items is now being graciously
67     increased from just the bare 8 (eight) right up through 100
68     (one hundred), on the sampler channel setup dialog.
69    
70     * The selection buttons, on the right of the Instrument, Audio
71     and MIDI devices combo-boxes, on the sampler channel dialog,
72     are now expected to be a little better looking than it was
73     before, at least for those Mac OS X eyes.
74    
75 capela 772 * Minor fixing on the initial messages dock-window height.
76    
77 capela 758 * Audio output channel routing configuration finally hits
78     the sampler channel dialog, at last! (EXPERIMENTAL).
79    
80 capela 757 * All widget captions changed to include proper application
81     title name prefix.
82    
83 capela 753 * Attempt to bring those aging autoconf templates to date;
84     sample SPEC file for RPM build is now being included and
85     generated at configure time.
86    
87 capela 752 * Set to use QApplication::setMainWidget() instead of
88     registering the traditional lastWindowClosed() signal
89     to quit() slot, just to let the -geometry command line
90     argument have some effect on X11.
91    
92 capela 751 * Added MUTE/SOLO buttons to individual channel strips.
93    
94 schoenebeck 736 * Fixed compilation error which occured when Qt was
95     compiled with -no-stl.
96    
97    
98 capela 680 0.1.2 2005-06-23 Even minor workings needs a rest.
99 capela 653
100 capela 661 * Fixed output disability when messages limit option is
101     turned off (thanks to Wolfgang Woehl for spotting this
102     one, while on qjackctl).
103 capela 653
104 capela 664 * Added CHANNEL_INFO event feedback notification handling;
105     minor stream/voice usage auto-refresh cycle optimization.
106 capela 661
107 capela 662
108 capela 631 0.1.1 2005-06-12 The mantra of bugfixes.
109 capela 586
110 capela 619 * New improved and full-featured application icon, thanks
111 capela 601 to Christian Schoenebeck design.
112 capela 619
113 capela 590 * Fixed refresh cycle of channel strips that are found
114 capela 605 in an error state, which was preventing correct channel
115 capela 590 info updates.
116 capela 586
117 capela 622 * Device configuration now accessible on toolbar. Added
118     buddy text label to device port/channel combobox on the
119     device dialog.
120 capela 586
121 capela 605 * Include libgig version info on command line request (-v).
122    
123 capela 619 * Minor configure and Makefile install fixes, as Debian and
124     Mac OS X specialties. Also, install does the right thing
125     with target file modes (thanks to Matt Flax and Ebrahim
126 capela 615 Mayat, for pointing these out).
127 capela 590
128 capela 600
129 capela 567 0.1.0 2005-05-23 Device configuration breakthrough.
130 schoenebeck 519
131 capela 465 * Device configuration is now complete (EXPERIMENTAL).
132 capela 426
133 capela 526 * [bug #9] Fixed for a LSCP command syntax convention
134 capela 619 consistency, regarding the enumeration of available
135 capela 526 sampler engines, Audio and MIDI drivers.
136 capela 567
137 capela 526 * [bug #13] Update instrument names list when a new
138 capela 619 instrument file is select on the channel setup dialog.
139 capela 426
140 capela 619 * Show appropriate message in channel strip while loading
141 capela 526 an instrument.
142 capela 567
143 capela 619 * Show libgig version in About box (in case libgig is used).
144 capela 526
145    
146 capela 421 0.0.5 2005-03-04 Fifth alpha-release.
147 capela 327
148 capela 414 * Fixed device driver type channel information gathering,
149     which was severely flawed, dropping all channel session
150     configurations to the default audio driver type (which
151     is ALSA) unexpectedly.
152    
153 capela 409 * Channels are now properly renumbered when saving to a
154     session LSCP script, assuming that it should be always
155     loaded from scratch (i.e. zero channels).
156    
157     * Disabled MIDI port setting on channel dialog, and on
158     session file save, as its use is still troublesome.
159    
160 capela 404 * Added new menu and toolbar option: Reset All Channels.
161    
162     * Channel setup changes are now properly filtered, as for
163     only those settings that are actually changed gets applied;
164     change information are now also posted to messages window.
165    
166 capela 388 * Drag-and-drop of either session files (LSCP scripts) or
167     instrument files (GIG) are now supported. Multiple files
168     drop is allowed, but it only makes sense for instrument
169     files, each one prompting to create a new sampler channel.
170    
171 capela 395 * Drag-and-drop to an existing channel strip is now also
172     featured, allowing the in-place change of the channel
173     sampler instrument file.
174    
175 capela 341 * Actual instrument names are now optionally retrieved
176     from the instrument file, even though libgig is available,
177     avoiding excessively annoying load times while on the
178     channel dialog, when huge instrument files are selected.
179    
180     * Set to ignore the SIGPIPE ("Broken pipe") signal, where
181 capela 340 available, as the default handler is usually fatal when
182     a JACK client is zombified abruptly.
183    
184 capela 341 * Messages window limit is now enforced only when the line
185 capela 327 count exceeds in one third the user configured line count
186 capela 338 maximum; if Qt 3.2.0+ is in use, the QTextView widget is
187     otherwise set to the optimized Qt::LogText format.
188 capela 327
189    
190 capela 303 0.0.4 2004-11-19 Fourth alpha-release.
191 capela 115
192 capela 299 * Instrument index selection now made via combo box widget;
193     actual instrument names are now properly retrieved from
194     the instrument file, provided if libgig is available.
195    
196 capela 295 * Sampler channels strips are just created if, and only if,
197     the respective channel setup dialog is actually accepted,
198     following common user-interface guidelines.
199    
200 capela 264 * Almost complete rewrite of sampler channel strips internal
201     control structures.
202    
203 capela 255 * Sampler reset command action added to menu and toolbar.
204    
205     * MIDI channel selection is now a dropdown list, allowing
206     the explicit selection for "All" channels input per sampler
207 capela 295 channel (omni mode).
208 capela 255
209     * Channel strip display glass effect has changed background
210 capela 267 color to black (was green), being now an user option.
211 capela 255
212     * Minor configure fixes.
213    
214    
215     0.0.3 2004-07-06 Third alpha-release.
216    
217 capela 145 * Mon-modal intrument file loading and status support.
218    
219 capela 176 * Effective MIDI input port setting on channel dialog,
220     and on session file save.
221 capela 145
222 capela 176 * Channel dialog gets sensible engine and driver defaults
223     on create time.
224 capela 161
225 capela 176 * Implied channel reset on successful instrument load.
226    
227    
228 capela 145 0.0.2 2004-06-15 Pre-revolutionary release.
229    
230 capela 127 * The channel context menu is also accessible by right-clicking
231     over the empty workspace area.
232 capela 130
233 capela 122 * Added small wait event loop on qsamplerMainForm::stopServer(),
234     so let local server terminate gracefully and stabilize, and
235     avoiding a probable segfault on exit, which was preventing the
236     correct salvage of settings and configuration.
237    
238 capela 119 * Maximum channel volume percent setting is now a global option,
239     provided to override the default (which is 100%).
240    
241     * Client/server transaction timeout option upper limit has been
242     increased from 5000 to 60000 milliseconds.
243    
244 capela 118 * A channel context menu is now featured, by right-clicking over
245     each sampler channel strip.
246 capela 115
247 capela 118 * Commented SET CHANNEL MIDI_INPUT_PORT command from
248     qsamplerMainForm::saveSessionFile(), it has no effect.
249    
250     * Insert a n #include <unistd.h> on qsamplerMessages.cpp, between
251 capela 115 a #if !defined(WIN32) clause.
252    
253 capela 118 * An initial non zero value (0.8) is now set for volume of every
254     new sampler channel strip.
255 capela 115
256     * The order to load/save and setup channel settings is now as
257     suggested in the following lines:
258    
259     SET CHANNEL AUDIO_OUTPUT_TYPE ...
260     SET CHANNEL MIDI_INPUT_TYPE ...
261     SET CHANNEL MIDI_INPUT_CHANNEL ...
262     LOAD ENGINE ...
263     LOAD INSTRUMENT ...
264     SET CHANNEL VOLUME ...
265    
266    
267 capela 109 0.0.1 2004-06-05 Primordial alpha release.
