|
8 |
* Whenever the listing of actual instrument names is not an |
9 |
option (e.g. due to lack of libgig support), the whole |
10 |
number of selectable instrument items is now being graciously |
11 |
increased from just the bare 8 (eight) right up through 100 |
12 |
(one hundred), on the sampler channel setup dialog. |
13 |
|
14 |
* The selection buttons, on the right of the Instrument, Audio |
15 |
and MIDI devices combo-boxes, on the sampler channel dialog, |
16 |
are now expected to be a little better looking than it was |
17 |
before, at least for those Mac OS X eyes. |
18 |
|
19 |
* Minor fixing on the initial messages dock-window height. |
20 |
|
21 |
* Audio output channel routing configuration finally hits |
22 |
the sampler channel dialog, at last! (EXPERIMENTAL). |
23 |
|
24 |
* All widget captions changed to include proper application |
25 |
title name prefix. |
26 |
|
27 |
* Attempt to bring those aging autoconf templates to date; |
28 |
sample SPEC file for RPM build is now being included and |
29 |
generated at configure time. |
30 |
|
31 |
* Set to use QApplication::setMainWidget() instead of |
32 |
registering the traditional lastWindowClosed() signal |
33 |
to quit() slot, just to let the -geometry command line |
34 |
argument have some effect on X11. |
35 |
|
36 |
* Added MUTE/SOLO buttons to individual channel strips. |
37 |
|
38 |
* Fixed compilation error which occured when Qt was |
39 |
compiled with -no-stl. |
40 |
|
41 |
|
42 |
0.1.2 2005-06-23 Even minor workings needs a rest. |
43 |
|
44 |
* Fixed output disability when messages limit option is |
45 |
turned off (thanks to Wolfgang Woehl for spotting this |
46 |
one, while on qjackctl). |
47 |
|
48 |
* Added CHANNEL_INFO event feedback notification handling; |
49 |
minor stream/voice usage auto-refresh cycle optimization. |
50 |
|
51 |
|
52 |
0.1.1 2005-06-12 The mantra of bugfixes. |
53 |
|
54 |
* New improved and full-featured application icon, thanks |
55 |
to Christian Schoenebeck design. |
56 |
|
57 |
* Fixed refresh cycle of channel strips that are found |
58 |
in an error state, which was preventing correct channel |
59 |
info updates. |
60 |
|
61 |
* Device configuration now accessible on toolbar. Added |
62 |
buddy text label to device port/channel combobox on the |
63 |
device dialog. |
64 |
|
65 |
* Include libgig version info on command line request (-v). |
66 |
|
67 |
* Minor configure and Makefile install fixes, as Debian and |
68 |
Mac OS X specialties. Also, install does the right thing |
69 |
with target file modes (thanks to Matt Flax and Ebrahim |
70 |
Mayat, for pointing these out). |
71 |
|
72 |
|
73 |
0.1.0 2005-05-23 Device configuration breakthrough. |
74 |
|
75 |
* Device configuration is now complete (EXPERIMENTAL). |
76 |
|
77 |
* [bug #9] Fixed for a LSCP command syntax convention |
78 |
consistency, regarding the enumeration of available |
79 |
sampler engines, Audio and MIDI drivers. |
80 |
|
81 |
* [bug #13] Update instrument names list when a new |
82 |
instrument file is select on the channel setup dialog. |
83 |
|
84 |
* Show appropriate message in channel strip while loading |
85 |
an instrument. |
86 |
|
87 |
* Show libgig version in About box (in case libgig is used). |
88 |
|
89 |
|
90 |
0.0.5 2005-03-04 Fifth alpha-release. |
91 |
|
92 |
* Fixed device driver type channel information gathering, |
93 |
which was severely flawed, dropping all channel session |
94 |
configurations to the default audio driver type (which |
95 |
is ALSA) unexpectedly. |
96 |
|
97 |
* Channels are now properly renumbered when saving to a |
98 |
session LSCP script, assuming that it should be always |
99 |
loaded from scratch (i.e. zero channels). |
100 |
|
101 |
* Disabled MIDI port setting on channel dialog, and on |
102 |
session file save, as its use is still troublesome. |
103 |
|
104 |
* Added new menu and toolbar option: Reset All Channels. |
105 |
|
106 |
* Channel setup changes are now properly filtered, as for |
107 |
only those settings that are actually changed gets applied; |
108 |
change information are now also posted to messages window. |
109 |
|
110 |
* Drag-and-drop of either session files (LSCP scripts) or |
111 |
instrument files (GIG) are now supported. Multiple files |
112 |
drop is allowed, but it only makes sense for instrument |
113 |
files, each one prompting to create a new sampler channel. |
114 |
|
115 |
* Drag-and-drop to an existing channel strip is now also |
116 |
featured, allowing the in-place change of the channel |
117 |
sampler instrument file. |
118 |
|
119 |
* Actual instrument names are now optionally retrieved |
120 |
from the instrument file, even though libgig is available, |
121 |
avoiding excessively annoying load times while on the |
122 |
channel dialog, when huge instrument files are selected. |
123 |
|
124 |
* Set to ignore the SIGPIPE ("Broken pipe") signal, where |
125 |
available, as the default handler is usually fatal when |
126 |
a JACK client is zombified abruptly. |
127 |
|
128 |
* Messages window limit is now enforced only when the line |
129 |
count exceeds in one third the user configured line count |
130 |
maximum; if Qt 3.2.0+ is in use, the QTextView widget is |
131 |
otherwise set to the optimized Qt::LogText format. |
132 |
|
133 |
|
134 |
0.0.4 2004-11-19 Fourth alpha-release. |
135 |
|
136 |
* Instrument index selection now made via combo box widget; |
137 |
actual instrument names are now properly retrieved from |
138 |
the instrument file, provided if libgig is available. |
139 |
|
140 |
* Sampler channels strips are just created if, and only if, |
141 |
the respective channel setup dialog is actually accepted, |
142 |
following common user-interface guidelines. |
143 |
|
144 |
* Almost complete rewrite of sampler channel strips internal |
145 |
control structures. |
146 |
|
147 |
* Sampler reset command action added to menu and toolbar. |
148 |
|
149 |
* MIDI channel selection is now a dropdown list, allowing |
150 |
the explicit selection for "All" channels input per sampler |
151 |
channel (omni mode). |
152 |
|
153 |
* Channel strip display glass effect has changed background |
154 |
color to black (was green), being now an user option. |
155 |
|
156 |
* Minor configure fixes. |
157 |
|
158 |
|
159 |
0.0.3 2004-07-06 Third alpha-release. |
160 |
|
161 |
* Mon-modal intrument file loading and status support. |
162 |
|
163 |
* Effective MIDI input port setting on channel dialog, |
164 |
and on session file save. |
165 |
|
166 |
* Channel dialog gets sensible engine and driver defaults |
167 |
on create time. |
168 |
|
169 |
* Implied channel reset on successful instrument load. |
170 |
|
171 |
|
172 |
0.0.2 2004-06-15 Pre-revolutionary release. |
173 |
|
174 |
* The channel context menu is also accessible by right-clicking |
175 |
over the empty workspace area. |
176 |
|
177 |
* Added small wait event loop on qsamplerMainForm::stopServer(), |
178 |
so let local server terminate gracefully and stabilize, and |
179 |
avoiding a probable segfault on exit, which was preventing the |
180 |
correct salvage of settings and configuration. |
181 |
|
182 |
* Maximum channel volume percent setting is now a global option, |
183 |
provided to override the default (which is 100%). |
184 |
|
185 |
* Client/server transaction timeout option upper limit has been |
186 |
increased from 5000 to 60000 milliseconds. |
187 |
|
188 |
* A channel context menu is now featured, by right-clicking over |
189 |
each sampler channel strip. |
190 |
|
191 |
* Commented SET CHANNEL MIDI_INPUT_PORT command from |
192 |
qsamplerMainForm::saveSessionFile(), it has no effect. |
193 |
|
194 |
* Insert a n #include <unistd.h> on qsamplerMessages.cpp, between |
195 |
a #if !defined(WIN32) clause. |
196 |
|
197 |
* An initial non zero value (0.8) is now set for volume of every |
198 |
new sampler channel strip. |
199 |
|
200 |
* The order to load/save and setup channel settings is now as |
201 |
suggested in the following lines: |
202 |
|
203 |
SET CHANNEL AUDIO_OUTPUT_TYPE ... |
204 |
SET CHANNEL MIDI_INPUT_TYPE ... |
205 |
SET CHANNEL MIDI_INPUT_CHANNEL ... |
206 |
LOAD ENGINE ... |
207 |
LOAD INSTRUMENT ... |
208 |
SET CHANNEL VOLUME ... |
209 |
