5    
6 schoenebeck 1626 CVS HEAD
7    
8 schoenebeck 1710 * Bugfix in sampler channel dialog, driver combo boxes' content were
9     screwed.
10    
11 schoenebeck 1702 * Automatically add & remove channel strips as they were removed e.g. by
12     other frontends.
13    
14 schoenebeck 1699 * Refresh device management dialog when device informations changed,
15     e.g. on changes caused by other frontends
16     (fixes segfault on device changes)
17    
18 schoenebeck 1698 * Implemented MIDI device activity windows, selectable from the "View"
19     main menu.
20    
21 schoenebeck 1691 * Implemented MIDI activity indicator on channel strips.
22    
23 schoenebeck 1668 * Added FX Sends Dialog to Channel Strips.
24    
25 capela 1637 * Color pallete fix for the instrument name display in channel strip,
26     particularly notorious on Mac OS X builds.
27    
28 schoenebeck 1626 * Added dialog when the application exits which lets the user decide
29     whether to keep the LinuxSampler running or not.
30    
31    
32 capela 1570 0.2.1 2007-12-06 Qt4 migration was complete.
33 schoenebeck 1461
34 schoenebeck 1527 * Added recent new support of libgig for retrieving instrument names in a
35     very fast way. If libgig provides this feature, then the respective
36     name retrieval setting in qsampler is enabled by default.
37    
38 capela 1514 * The current selected/activated channel-strip is now visually
39     evident while in the application workspace (highlighting).
40    
41 capela 1512 * Make View/Menubar and Toolbar shortcuts accessible even though
42     the main menu and toobar are not visible.
43    
44 capela 1509 * Audio routing table is initially hidden in the dialog, when
45     creating a new sampler channel.
46    
47     * README requirements and configuration notes update.
48    
49 schoenebeck 1506 * Disable OK button in sampler channel form and MIDI instrument
50     form if no valid engine is selected (to avoid bothering newbie
51     users with confusing LSCP syntax errors when using the UI the
52     first time).
53    
54 capela 1499 * Fixed creation of devices (don't try to set device parameters
55     which the user did not touch in the device creation dialog).
56 schoenebeck 1486
57 schoenebeck 1493 * Added Windows file path support.
58    
59 capela 1499 * Fixed win32/qmakefile and win32/config.h so that it compiles
60     under win32.
61 schoenebeck 1493
62 schoenebeck 1492 * Qt4 port of the application.
63 schoenebeck 1461
64    
65 capela 1437 0.1.5 2007-10-15 Five months later a fifth is heard.
66 capela 1234
67 capela 1394 * Added support for LSCP escape sequences to allow loading and
68     mapping instrument files with special characters in their
69 schoenebeck 1402 filename, as well as special characters for instrument names
70     and instrument map names (requires LSCP v1.2 on sampler side).
71 capela 1394
72 capela 1372 * Added new button "Edit" to the channel strips, which probably
73     does exactly what you think it does: it opens an appropriate
74     instrument editor application; the channel instrument editor
75     tool is also accessible from the main menu and toolbar.
76    
77 capela 1255 * Application icon is now installed to ${prefix}/share/pixmaps;
78     application desktop entry file is now included in installation;
79     spec file (RPM) is now a bit more openSUSE compliant.
80    
81 capela 1234 * Crash fix on double-clicking on a empty instrument list.
82    
83    
84 capela 1166 0.1.4 2007-05-04 Almost another year has gone by.
85 schoenebeck 736
86 capela 1036 * Channel button colors have changed: yellow for mute and
87     cyan for solo is now the rule, but note that this color
88     highlighting is only rendered on some widget styles.
89    
90 capela 1034 * Master sampler volume slider/spinbox combo is now featured.
91    
92 capela 1024 * Initial support for sampler channel FX sends, while saving
93     the session state, only at code-level.
94 capela 1036
95 capela 1016 * Sampler channel setup dialog does not mandate for valid nor
96 capela 1018 existing instrument file name.
97 capela 1016
98 capela 987 * Revised error verbosity in general and on session load/save;
99     hour-glass wait cursor is now displayed on session load/save;
100     keyboard shortcuts changed on MIDI instruments view context;
101     improved channel strip arrangement on session open/load;
102     instrument map entry removal confirmation (as optional);
103     corrected some tooltip text strings.
104 capela 971
105 capela 968 * Most top-level widgets were missing the normal-widget flag,
106     which were causing some sticky size behavior while on some
107     window managers.
108    
109 capela 961 * Added preliminary MIDI instrument mapping support; now
110 capela 1016 with an instrument list widget and editing capabilities;
111     MIDI instrumeent map program numbers are now displayed in
112     the range 1-128, instead of the internal 0-127.
113 capela 957
114 capela 969 * GPL address update.
115 capela 920
116    
117 capela 870 0.1.3 2006-06-01 Its been a long year isn't it?
118    
119     * Changed deprecated copyright attribute to license,
120     on qsampler.spec (RPM).
121    
122 capela 847 * Added configure support for x86_64 libraries (UNTESTED).
123    
124 capela 825 * Optional specification of alternate liblscp and libgig
125     installation paths have been added to configure command
126     arguments (--with-liblscp, --with-libgig).
127    
128 capela 824 * Whenever the listing of actual instrument names is not an
129     option (e.g. due to lack of libgig support), the whole
130     number of selectable instrument items is now being graciously
131     increased from just the bare 8 (eight) right up through 100
132     (one hundred), on the sampler channel setup dialog.
133    
134     * The selection buttons, on the right of the Instrument, Audio
135     and MIDI devices combo-boxes, on the sampler channel dialog,
136     are now expected to be a little better looking than it was
137     before, at least for those Mac OS X eyes.
138    
139 capela 772 * Minor fixing on the initial messages dock-window height.
140    
141 capela 758 * Audio output channel routing configuration finally hits
142     the sampler channel dialog, at last! (EXPERIMENTAL).
143    
144 capela 757 * All widget captions changed to include proper application
145     title name prefix.
146    
147 capela 753 * Attempt to bring those aging autoconf templates to date;
148     sample SPEC file for RPM build is now being included and
149     generated at configure time.
150    
151 schoenebeck 1461 * Set to use QApplication::setMainWidget() instead of
152     registering the traditional lastWindowClosed() signal
153     to quit() slot, just to let the -geometry command line
154 capela 752 argument have some effect on X11.
155    
156 capela 751 * Added MUTE/SOLO buttons to individual channel strips.
157    
158 schoenebeck 736 * Fixed compilation error which occured when Qt was
159     compiled with -no-stl.
160    
161    
162 capela 680 0.1.2 2005-06-23 Even minor workings needs a rest.
163 capela 653
164 schoenebeck 1461 * Fixed output disability when messages limit option is
165 capela 661 turned off (thanks to Wolfgang Woehl for spotting this
166     one, while on qjackctl).
167 capela 653
168 capela 664 * Added CHANNEL_INFO event feedback notification handling;
169     minor stream/voice usage auto-refresh cycle optimization.
170 capela 661

175 capela 601 to Christian Schoenebeck design.
176 capela 619
177 capela 590 * Fixed refresh cycle of channel strips that are found
178 capela 605 in an error state, which was preventing correct channel
179 capela 590 info updates.
180 capela 586
181 capela 622 * Device configuration now accessible on toolbar. Added
182     buddy text label to device port/channel combobox on the
183     device dialog.
184 capela 586
185 capela 605 * Include libgig version info on command line request (-v).
186    
187 capela 619 * Minor configure and Makefile install fixes, as Debian and
188     Mac OS X specialties. Also, install does the right thing
189     with target file modes (thanks to Matt Flax and Ebrahim
190 capela 615 Mayat, for pointing these out).
191 capela 590
192 capela 600
193 capela 567 0.1.0 2005-05-23 Device configuration breakthrough.
194 schoenebeck 519
195 capela 465 * Device configuration is now complete (EXPERIMENTAL).
196 capela 426
197 capela 526 * [bug #9] Fixed for a LSCP command syntax convention
198 capela 619 consistency, regarding the enumeration of available
199 capela 526 sampler engines, Audio and MIDI drivers.
200 capela 567
201 schoenebeck 1461 * [bug #13] Update instrument names list when a new
202 capela 619 instrument file is select on the channel setup dialog.
203 capela 426
204 capela 619 * Show appropriate message in channel strip while loading
205 schoenebeck 1461 an instrument.
206 capela 567
207 capela 619 * Show libgig version in About box (in case libgig is used).
208 capela 526
209    
210 capela 421 0.0.5 2005-03-04 Fifth alpha-release.
211 capela 327
212 capela 414 * Fixed device driver type channel information gathering,
213     which was severely flawed, dropping all channel session
214     configurations to the default audio driver type (which
215     is ALSA) unexpectedly.
216    
217 capela 409 * Channels are now properly renumbered when saving to a
218     session LSCP script, assuming that it should be always
219     loaded from scratch (i.e. zero channels).
220    
221     * Disabled MIDI port setting on channel dialog, and on
222     session file save, as its use is still troublesome.
223    
224 capela 404 * Added new menu and toolbar option: Reset All Channels.
225    
226     * Channel setup changes are now properly filtered, as for
227     only those settings that are actually changed gets applied;
228     change information are now also posted to messages window.
229    
230 capela 388 * Drag-and-drop of either session files (LSCP scripts) or
231     instrument files (GIG) are now supported. Multiple files
232     drop is allowed, but it only makes sense for instrument
233     files, each one prompting to create a new sampler channel.
234    
235 schoenebeck 1461 * Drag-and-drop to an existing channel strip is now also
236     featured, allowing the in-place change of the channel
237 capela 395 sampler instrument file.
238    
239 capela 341 * Actual instrument names are now optionally retrieved
240     from the instrument file, even though libgig is available,
241     avoiding excessively annoying load times while on the
242     channel dialog, when huge instrument files are selected.
243    
244     * Set to ignore the SIGPIPE ("Broken pipe") signal, where
245 capela 340 available, as the default handler is usually fatal when
246     a JACK client is zombified abruptly.
247    
248 capela 341 * Messages window limit is now enforced only when the line
249 capela 327 count exceeds in one third the user configured line count
250 capela 338 maximum; if Qt 3.2.0+ is in use, the QTextView widget is
251     otherwise set to the optimized Qt::LogText format.
252 capela 327
253    
254 capela 303 0.0.4 2004-11-19 Fourth alpha-release.
255 capela 115
256 capela 299 * Instrument index selection now made via combo box widget;
257     actual instrument names are now properly retrieved from
258     the instrument file, provided if libgig is available.
259    
260 capela 295 * Sampler channels strips are just created if, and only if,
261     the respective channel setup dialog is actually accepted,
262     following common user-interface guidelines.
263    
264 capela 264 * Almost complete rewrite of sampler channel strips internal
265     control structures.
266    
267 capela 255 * Sampler reset command action added to menu and toolbar.
268    
269     * MIDI channel selection is now a dropdown list, allowing
270     the explicit selection for "All" channels input per sampler
271 capela 295 channel (omni mode).
272 capela 255
273     * Channel strip display glass effect has changed background
274 capela 267 color to black (was green), being now an user option.
275 capela 255
276     * Minor configure fixes.
277    
278    
279     0.0.3 2004-07-06 Third alpha-release.
280    
281 capela 145 * Mon-modal intrument file loading and status support.
282    
283 capela 176 * Effective MIDI input port setting on channel dialog,
284     and on session file save.
285 capela 145
286 capela 176 * Channel dialog gets sensible engine and driver defaults
287     on create time.
288 capela 161
289 capela 176 * Implied channel reset on successful instrument load.
290    
291    
292 capela 145 0.0.2 2004-06-15 Pre-revolutionary release.
293    
294 capela 127 * The channel context menu is also accessible by right-clicking
295     over the empty workspace area.
296 capela 130
297 capela 122 * Added small wait event loop on qsamplerMainForm::stopServer(),
298     so let local server terminate gracefully and stabilize, and
299     avoiding a probable segfault on exit, which was preventing the
300     correct salvage of settings and configuration.
301    
302 capela 119 * Maximum channel volume percent setting is now a global option,
303     provided to override the default (which is 100%).
304    
305     * Client/server transaction timeout option upper limit has been
306     increased from 5000 to 60000 milliseconds.
307    
308 capela 118 * A channel context menu is now featured, by right-clicking over
309     each sampler channel strip.
310 capela 115
311 capela 118 * Commented SET CHANNEL MIDI_INPUT_PORT command from
312     qsamplerMainForm::saveSessionFile(), it has no effect.
313    
314     * Insert a n #include <unistd.h> on qsamplerMessages.cpp, between
315 capela 115 a #if !defined(WIN32) clause.
316    
317 capela 118 * An initial non zero value (0.8) is now set for volume of every
318     new sampler channel strip.
319 capela 115
320     * The order to load/save and setup channel settings is now as
321     suggested in the following lines:
322    
323     SET CHANNEL AUDIO_OUTPUT_TYPE ...
324     SET CHANNEL MIDI_INPUT_TYPE ...
325     SET CHANNEL MIDI_INPUT_CHANNEL ...
326     LOAD ENGINE ...
327     LOAD INSTRUMENT ...
328     SET CHANNEL VOLUME ...
329    
330    
331 capela 109 0.0.1 2004-06-05 Primordial alpha release.
