7    
8 capela 1509 * Audio routing table is initially hidden in the dialog, when
9     creating a new sampler channel.
10    
11     * README requirements and configuration notes update.
12    
13 schoenebeck 1506 * Disable OK button in sampler channel form and MIDI instrument
14     form if no valid engine is selected (to avoid bothering newbie
15     users with confusing LSCP syntax errors when using the UI the
16     first time).
17    
18 capela 1499 * Fixed creation of devices (don't try to set device parameters
19     which the user did not touch in the device creation dialog).
20 schoenebeck 1486
21 schoenebeck 1493 * Added Windows file path support.
22    
23 capela 1499 * Fixed win32/qmakefile and win32/config.h so that it compiles
24     under win32.
25 schoenebeck 1493
26 schoenebeck 1492 * Qt4 port of the application.
27 schoenebeck 1461
28    
29 capela 1437 0.1.5 2007-10-15 Five months later a fifth is heard.
30 capela 1234
31 capela 1394 * Added support for LSCP escape sequences to allow loading and
32     mapping instrument files with special characters in their
33 schoenebeck 1402 filename, as well as special characters for instrument names
34     and instrument map names (requires LSCP v1.2 on sampler side).
35 capela 1394
36 capela 1372 * Added new button "Edit" to the channel strips, which probably
37     does exactly what you think it does: it opens an appropriate
38     instrument editor application; the channel instrument editor
39     tool is also accessible from the main menu and toolbar.
40    
41 capela 1255 * Application icon is now installed to ${prefix}/share/pixmaps;
42     application desktop entry file is now included in installation;
43     spec file (RPM) is now a bit more openSUSE compliant.
44    
45 capela 1234 * Crash fix on double-clicking on a empty instrument list.
46    
47    
48 capela 1166 0.1.4 2007-05-04 Almost another year has gone by.
49 schoenebeck 736
50 capela 1036 * Channel button colors have changed: yellow for mute and
51     cyan for solo is now the rule, but note that this color
52     highlighting is only rendered on some widget styles.
53    
54 capela 1034 * Master sampler volume slider/spinbox combo is now featured.
55    
56 capela 1024 * Initial support for sampler channel FX sends, while saving
57     the session state, only at code-level.
58 capela 1036
59 capela 1016 * Sampler channel setup dialog does not mandate for valid nor
60 capela 1018 existing instrument file name.
61 capela 1016
62 capela 987 * Revised error verbosity in general and on session load/save;
63     hour-glass wait cursor is now displayed on session load/save;
64     keyboard shortcuts changed on MIDI instruments view context;
65     improved channel strip arrangement on session open/load;
66     instrument map entry removal confirmation (as optional);
67     corrected some tooltip text strings.
68 capela 971
69 capela 968 * Most top-level widgets were missing the normal-widget flag,
70     which were causing some sticky size behavior while on some
71     window managers.
72    
73 capela 961 * Added preliminary MIDI instrument mapping support; now
74 capela 1016 with an instrument list widget and editing capabilities;
75     MIDI instrumeent map program numbers are now displayed in
76     the range 1-128, instead of the internal 0-127.
77 capela 957
78 capela 969 * GPL address update.
79 capela 920
80    
81 capela 870 0.1.3 2006-06-01 Its been a long year isn't it?
82    
83     * Changed deprecated copyright attribute to license,
84     on qsampler.spec (RPM).
85    
86 capela 847 * Added configure support for x86_64 libraries (UNTESTED).
87    
88 capela 825 * Optional specification of alternate liblscp and libgig
89     installation paths have been added to configure command
90     arguments (--with-liblscp, --with-libgig).
91    
92 capela 824 * Whenever the listing of actual instrument names is not an
93     option (e.g. due to lack of libgig support), the whole
94     number of selectable instrument items is now being graciously
95     increased from just the bare 8 (eight) right up through 100
96     (one hundred), on the sampler channel setup dialog.
97    
98     * The selection buttons, on the right of the Instrument, Audio
99     and MIDI devices combo-boxes, on the sampler channel dialog,
100     are now expected to be a little better looking than it was
101     before, at least for those Mac OS X eyes.
102    
103 capela 772 * Minor fixing on the initial messages dock-window height.
104    
105 capela 758 * Audio output channel routing configuration finally hits
106     the sampler channel dialog, at last! (EXPERIMENTAL).
107    
108 capela 757 * All widget captions changed to include proper application
109     title name prefix.
110    
111 capela 753 * Attempt to bring those aging autoconf templates to date;
112     sample SPEC file for RPM build is now being included and
113     generated at configure time.
114    
115 schoenebeck 1461 * Set to use QApplication::setMainWidget() instead of
116     registering the traditional lastWindowClosed() signal
117     to quit() slot, just to let the -geometry command line
118 capela 752 argument have some effect on X11.
119    
120 capela 751 * Added MUTE/SOLO buttons to individual channel strips.
121    
122 schoenebeck 736 * Fixed compilation error which occured when Qt was
123     compiled with -no-stl.
124    
125    
126 capela 680 0.1.2 2005-06-23 Even minor workings needs a rest.
127 capela 653
128 schoenebeck 1461 * Fixed output disability when messages limit option is
129 capela 661 turned off (thanks to Wolfgang Woehl for spotting this
130     one, while on qjackctl).
131 capela 653
132 capela 664 * Added CHANNEL_INFO event feedback notification handling;
133     minor stream/voice usage auto-refresh cycle optimization.
134 capela 661
135 capela 662

139 capela 601 to Christian Schoenebeck design.
140 capela 619
141 capela 590 * Fixed refresh cycle of channel strips that are found
142 capela 605 in an error state, which was preventing correct channel
143 capela 590 info updates.
144 capela 586
145 capela 622 * Device configuration now accessible on toolbar. Added
146     buddy text label to device port/channel combobox on the
147     device dialog.
148 capela 586
149 capela 605 * Include libgig version info on command line request (-v).
150    
151 capela 619 * Minor configure and Makefile install fixes, as Debian and
152     Mac OS X specialties. Also, install does the right thing
153     with target file modes (thanks to Matt Flax and Ebrahim
154 capela 615 Mayat, for pointing these out).
155 capela 590
156 capela 600
157 capela 567 0.1.0 2005-05-23 Device configuration breakthrough.
158 schoenebeck 519
159 capela 465 * Device configuration is now complete (EXPERIMENTAL).
160 capela 426
161 capela 526 * [bug #9] Fixed for a LSCP command syntax convention
162 capela 619 consistency, regarding the enumeration of available
163 capela 526 sampler engines, Audio and MIDI drivers.
164 capela 567
165 schoenebeck 1461 * [bug #13] Update instrument names list when a new
166 capela 619 instrument file is select on the channel setup dialog.
167 capela 426
168 capela 619 * Show appropriate message in channel strip while loading
169 schoenebeck 1461 an instrument.
170 capela 567
171 capela 619 * Show libgig version in About box (in case libgig is used).
172 capela 526
173    
174 capela 421 0.0.5 2005-03-04 Fifth alpha-release.
175 capela 327
176 capela 414 * Fixed device driver type channel information gathering,
177     which was severely flawed, dropping all channel session
178     configurations to the default audio driver type (which
179     is ALSA) unexpectedly.
180    
181 capela 409 * Channels are now properly renumbered when saving to a
182     session LSCP script, assuming that it should be always
183     loaded from scratch (i.e. zero channels).
184    
185     * Disabled MIDI port setting on channel dialog, and on
186     session file save, as its use is still troublesome.
187    
188 capela 404 * Added new menu and toolbar option: Reset All Channels.
189    
190     * Channel setup changes are now properly filtered, as for
191     only those settings that are actually changed gets applied;
192     change information are now also posted to messages window.
193    
194 capela 388 * Drag-and-drop of either session files (LSCP scripts) or
195     instrument files (GIG) are now supported. Multiple files
196     drop is allowed, but it only makes sense for instrument
197     files, each one prompting to create a new sampler channel.
198    
199 schoenebeck 1461 * Drag-and-drop to an existing channel strip is now also
200     featured, allowing the in-place change of the channel
201 capela 395 sampler instrument file.
202    
203 capela 341 * Actual instrument names are now optionally retrieved
204     from the instrument file, even though libgig is available,
205     avoiding excessively annoying load times while on the
206     channel dialog, when huge instrument files are selected.
207    
208     * Set to ignore the SIGPIPE ("Broken pipe") signal, where
209 capela 340 available, as the default handler is usually fatal when
210     a JACK client is zombified abruptly.
211    
212 capela 341 * Messages window limit is now enforced only when the line
213 capela 327 count exceeds in one third the user configured line count
214 capela 338 maximum; if Qt 3.2.0+ is in use, the QTextView widget is
215     otherwise set to the optimized Qt::LogText format.
216 capela 327
217    
218 capela 303 0.0.4 2004-11-19 Fourth alpha-release.
219 capela 115
220 capela 299 * Instrument index selection now made via combo box widget;
221     actual instrument names are now properly retrieved from
222     the instrument file, provided if libgig is available.
223    
224 capela 295 * Sampler channels strips are just created if, and only if,
225     the respective channel setup dialog is actually accepted,
226     following common user-interface guidelines.
227    
228 capela 264 * Almost complete rewrite of sampler channel strips internal
229     control structures.
230    
231 capela 255 * Sampler reset command action added to menu and toolbar.
232    
233     * MIDI channel selection is now a dropdown list, allowing
234     the explicit selection for "All" channels input per sampler
235 capela 295 channel (omni mode).
236 capela 255
237     * Channel strip display glass effect has changed background
238 capela 267 color to black (was green), being now an user option.
239 capela 255
240     * Minor configure fixes.
241    
242    
243     0.0.3 2004-07-06 Third alpha-release.
244    
245 capela 145 * Mon-modal intrument file loading and status support.
246    
247 capela 176 * Effective MIDI input port setting on channel dialog,
248     and on session file save.
249 capela 145
250 capela 176 * Channel dialog gets sensible engine and driver defaults
251     on create time.
252 capela 161
253 capela 176 * Implied channel reset on successful instrument load.
254    
255    
256 capela 145 0.0.2 2004-06-15 Pre-revolutionary release.
257    
258 capela 127 * The channel context menu is also accessible by right-clicking
259     over the empty workspace area.
260 capela 130
261 capela 122 * Added small wait event loop on qsamplerMainForm::stopServer(),
262     so let local server terminate gracefully and stabilize, and
263     avoiding a probable segfault on exit, which was preventing the
264     correct salvage of settings and configuration.
265    
266 capela 119 * Maximum channel volume percent setting is now a global option,
267     provided to override the default (which is 100%).
268    
269     * Client/server transaction timeout option upper limit has been
270     increased from 5000 to 60000 milliseconds.
271    
272 capela 118 * A channel context menu is now featured, by right-clicking over
273     each sampler channel strip.
274 capela 115
275 capela 118 * Commented SET CHANNEL MIDI_INPUT_PORT command from
276     qsamplerMainForm::saveSessionFile(), it has no effect.
277    
278     * Insert a n #include <unistd.h> on qsamplerMessages.cpp, between
279 capela 115 a #if !defined(WIN32) clause.
280    
281 capela 118 * An initial non zero value (0.8) is now set for volume of every
282     new sampler channel strip.
283 capela 115
284     * The order to load/save and setup channel settings is now as
285     suggested in the following lines:
286    
287     SET CHANNEL AUDIO_OUTPUT_TYPE ...
288     SET CHANNEL MIDI_INPUT_TYPE ...
289     SET CHANNEL MIDI_INPUT_CHANNEL ...
290     LOAD ENGINE ...
291     LOAD INSTRUMENT ...
292     SET CHANNEL VOLUME ...
293    
294    
295 capela 109 0.0.1 2004-06-05 Primordial alpha release.
