* Qt4 migration: still far from complete, the .ui files got shaved
  with special regard to some redundant or duplicated signal/slot
  connections and to the options dialog font aesthetics as also
  other minors.

1 capela 491 Qsampler - A LinuxSampler Qt GUI Interface
2 capela 109 ------------------------------------------
3    
4     ChangeLog
5    
6 schoenebeck 1461 CVS HEAD
7    
8     * Started Qt4 port of the application
9 capela 1473 (not completed and very broken yet!).
10 schoenebeck 1461
11    
12 capela 1437 0.1.5 2007-10-15 Five months later a fifth is heard.
13 capela 1234
14 capela 1394 * Added support for LSCP escape sequences to allow loading and
15     mapping instrument files with special characters in their
16 schoenebeck 1402 filename, as well as special characters for instrument names
17     and instrument map names (requires LSCP v1.2 on sampler side).
18 capela 1394
19 capela 1372 * Added new button "Edit" to the channel strips, which probably
20     does exactly what you think it does: it opens an appropriate
21     instrument editor application; the channel instrument editor
22     tool is also accessible from the main menu and toolbar.
23    
24 capela 1255 * Application icon is now installed to ${prefix}/share/pixmaps;
25     application desktop entry file is now included in installation;
26     spec file (RPM) is now a bit more openSUSE compliant.
27    
28 capela 1234 * Crash fix on double-clicking on a empty instrument list.
29    
30    
31 capela 1166 0.1.4 2007-05-04 Almost another year has gone by.
32 schoenebeck 736
33 capela 1036 * Channel button colors have changed: yellow for mute and
34     cyan for solo is now the rule, but note that this color
35     highlighting is only rendered on some widget styles.
36    
37 capela 1034 * Master sampler volume slider/spinbox combo is now featured.
38    
39 capela 1024 * Initial support for sampler channel FX sends, while saving
40     the session state, only at code-level.
41 capela 1036
42 capela 1016 * Sampler channel setup dialog does not mandate for valid nor
43 capela 1018 existing instrument file name.
44 capela 1016
45 capela 987 * Revised error verbosity in general and on session load/save;
46     hour-glass wait cursor is now displayed on session load/save;
47     keyboard shortcuts changed on MIDI instruments view context;
48     improved channel strip arrangement on session open/load;
49     instrument map entry removal confirmation (as optional);
50     corrected some tooltip text strings.
51 capela 971
52 capela 968 * Most top-level widgets were missing the normal-widget flag,
53     which were causing some sticky size behavior while on some
54     window managers.
55    
56 capela 961 * Added preliminary MIDI instrument mapping support; now
57 capela 1016 with an instrument list widget and editing capabilities;
58     MIDI instrumeent map program numbers are now displayed in
59     the range 1-128, instead of the internal 0-127.
60 capela 957
61 capela 969 * GPL address update.
62 capela 920
63    
64 capela 870 0.1.3 2006-06-01 Its been a long year isn't it?
65    
66     * Changed deprecated copyright attribute to license,
67     on qsampler.spec (RPM).
68    
69 capela 847 * Added configure support for x86_64 libraries (UNTESTED).
70    
71 capela 825 * Optional specification of alternate liblscp and libgig
72     installation paths have been added to configure command
73     arguments (--with-liblscp, --with-libgig).
74    
75 capela 824 * Whenever the listing of actual instrument names is not an
76     option (e.g. due to lack of libgig support), the whole
77     number of selectable instrument items is now being graciously
78     increased from just the bare 8 (eight) right up through 100
79     (one hundred), on the sampler channel setup dialog.
80    
81     * The selection buttons, on the right of the Instrument, Audio
82     and MIDI devices combo-boxes, on the sampler channel dialog,
83     are now expected to be a little better looking than it was
84     before, at least for those Mac OS X eyes.
85    
86 capela 772 * Minor fixing on the initial messages dock-window height.
87    
88 capela 758 * Audio output channel routing configuration finally hits
89     the sampler channel dialog, at last! (EXPERIMENTAL).
90    
91 capela 757 * All widget captions changed to include proper application
92     title name prefix.
93    
94 capela 753 * Attempt to bring those aging autoconf templates to date;
95     sample SPEC file for RPM build is now being included and
96     generated at configure time.
97    
98 schoenebeck 1461 * Set to use QApplication::setMainWidget() instead of
99     registering the traditional lastWindowClosed() signal
100     to quit() slot, just to let the -geometry command line
101 capela 752 argument have some effect on X11.
102    
103 capela 751 * Added MUTE/SOLO buttons to individual channel strips.
104    
105 schoenebeck 736 * Fixed compilation error which occured when Qt was
106     compiled with -no-stl.
107    
108    
109 capela 680 0.1.2 2005-06-23 Even minor workings needs a rest.
110 capela 653
111 schoenebeck 1461 * Fixed output disability when messages limit option is
112 capela 661 turned off (thanks to Wolfgang Woehl for spotting this
113     one, while on qjackctl).
114 capela 653
115 capela 664 * Added CHANNEL_INFO event feedback notification handling;
116     minor stream/voice usage auto-refresh cycle optimization.
117 capela 661
118 capela 662
119 capela 631 0.1.1 2005-06-12 The mantra of bugfixes.
120 capela 586
121 capela 619 * New improved and full-featured application icon, thanks
122 capela 601 to Christian Schoenebeck design.
123 capela 619
124 capela 590 * Fixed refresh cycle of channel strips that are found
125 capela 605 in an error state, which was preventing correct channel
126 capela 590 info updates.
127 capela 586
128 capela 622 * Device configuration now accessible on toolbar. Added
129     buddy text label to device port/channel combobox on the
130     device dialog.
131 capela 586
132 capela 605 * Include libgig version info on command line request (-v).
133    
134 capela 619 * Minor configure and Makefile install fixes, as Debian and
135     Mac OS X specialties. Also, install does the right thing
136     with target file modes (thanks to Matt Flax and Ebrahim
137 capela 615 Mayat, for pointing these out).
138 capela 590
139 capela 600
140 capela 567 0.1.0 2005-05-23 Device configuration breakthrough.
141 schoenebeck 519
142 capela 465 * Device configuration is now complete (EXPERIMENTAL).
143 capela 426
144 capela 526 * [bug #9] Fixed for a LSCP command syntax convention
145 capela 619 consistency, regarding the enumeration of available
146 capela 526 sampler engines, Audio and MIDI drivers.
147 capela 567
148 schoenebeck 1461 * [bug #13] Update instrument names list when a new
149 capela 619 instrument file is select on the channel setup dialog.
150 capela 426
151 capela 619 * Show appropriate message in channel strip while loading
152 schoenebeck 1461 an instrument.
153 capela 567
154 capela 619 * Show libgig version in About box (in case libgig is used).
155 capela 526
156    
157 capela 421 0.0.5 2005-03-04 Fifth alpha-release.
158 capela 327
159 capela 414 * Fixed device driver type channel information gathering,
160     which was severely flawed, dropping all channel session
161     configurations to the default audio driver type (which
162     is ALSA) unexpectedly.
163    
164 capela 409 * Channels are now properly renumbered when saving to a
165     session LSCP script, assuming that it should be always
166     loaded from scratch (i.e. zero channels).
167    
168     * Disabled MIDI port setting on channel dialog, and on
169     session file save, as its use is still troublesome.
170    
171 capela 404 * Added new menu and toolbar option: Reset All Channels.
172    
173     * Channel setup changes are now properly filtered, as for
174     only those settings that are actually changed gets applied;
175     change information are now also posted to messages window.
176    
177 capela 388 * Drag-and-drop of either session files (LSCP scripts) or
178     instrument files (GIG) are now supported. Multiple files
179     drop is allowed, but it only makes sense for instrument
180     files, each one prompting to create a new sampler channel.
181    
182 schoenebeck 1461 * Drag-and-drop to an existing channel strip is now also
183     featured, allowing the in-place change of the channel
184 capela 395 sampler instrument file.
185    
186 capela 341 * Actual instrument names are now optionally retrieved
187     from the instrument file, even though libgig is available,
188     avoiding excessively annoying load times while on the
189     channel dialog, when huge instrument files are selected.
190    
191     * Set to ignore the SIGPIPE ("Broken pipe") signal, where
192 capela 340 available, as the default handler is usually fatal when
193     a JACK client is zombified abruptly.
194    
195 capela 341 * Messages window limit is now enforced only when the line
196 capela 327 count exceeds in one third the user configured line count
197 capela 338 maximum; if Qt 3.2.0+ is in use, the QTextView widget is
198     otherwise set to the optimized Qt::LogText format.
199 capela 327
200    
201 capela 303 0.0.4 2004-11-19 Fourth alpha-release.
202 capela 115
203 capela 299 * Instrument index selection now made via combo box widget;
204     actual instrument names are now properly retrieved from
205     the instrument file, provided if libgig is available.
206    
207 capela 295 * Sampler channels strips are just created if, and only if,
208     the respective channel setup dialog is actually accepted,
209     following common user-interface guidelines.
210    
211 capela 264 * Almost complete rewrite of sampler channel strips internal
212     control structures.
213    
214 capela 255 * Sampler reset command action added to menu and toolbar.
215    
216     * MIDI channel selection is now a dropdown list, allowing
217     the explicit selection for "All" channels input per sampler
218 capela 295 channel (omni mode).
219 capela 255
220     * Channel strip display glass effect has changed background
221 capela 267 color to black (was green), being now an user option.
222 capela 255
223     * Minor configure fixes.
224    
225    
226     0.0.3 2004-07-06 Third alpha-release.
227    
228 capela 145 * Mon-modal intrument file loading and status support.
229    
230 capela 176 * Effective MIDI input port setting on channel dialog,
231     and on session file save.
232 capela 145
233 capela 176 * Channel dialog gets sensible engine and driver defaults
234     on create time.
235 capela 161
236 capela 176 * Implied channel reset on successful instrument load.
237    
238    
239 capela 145 0.0.2 2004-06-15 Pre-revolutionary release.
240    
241 capela 127 * The channel context menu is also accessible by right-clicking
242     over the empty workspace area.
243 capela 130
244 capela 122 * Added small wait event loop on qsamplerMainForm::stopServer(),
245     so let local server terminate gracefully and stabilize, and
246     avoiding a probable segfault on exit, which was preventing the
247     correct salvage of settings and configuration.
248    
249 capela 119 * Maximum channel volume percent setting is now a global option,
250     provided to override the default (which is 100%).
251    
252     * Client/server transaction timeout option upper limit has been
253     increased from 5000 to 60000 milliseconds.
254    
255 capela 118 * A channel context menu is now featured, by right-clicking over
256     each sampler channel strip.
257 capela 115
258 capela 118 * Commented SET CHANNEL MIDI_INPUT_PORT command from
259     qsamplerMainForm::saveSessionFile(), it has no effect.
260    
261     * Insert a n #include <unistd.h> on qsamplerMessages.cpp, between
262 capela 115 a #if !defined(WIN32) clause.
263    
264 capela 118 * An initial non zero value (0.8) is now set for volume of every
265     new sampler channel strip.
266 capela 115
267     * The order to load/save and setup channel settings is now as
268     suggested in the following lines:
269    
270     SET CHANNEL AUDIO_OUTPUT_TYPE ...
271     SET CHANNEL MIDI_INPUT_TYPE ...
272     SET CHANNEL MIDI_INPUT_CHANNEL ...
273     LOAD ENGINE ...
274     LOAD INSTRUMENT ...
275     SET CHANNEL VOLUME ...
276    
277    
278 capela 109 0.0.1 2004-06-05 Primordial alpha release.
