5    
6  0.0.2   2004-06-12  Work in progress...  CVS HEAD
7    
8    * Started Qt4 port of the application
9      (not completed and very broken yet!).
10    
11    
12    0.1.5  2007-10-15 Five months later a fifth is heard.
13    
14    * Added support for LSCP escape sequences to allow loading and
15      mapping instrument files with special characters in their
16      filename, as well as special characters for instrument names
17      and instrument map names (requires LSCP v1.2 on sampler side).
18    
19    * 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    * 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    * Crash fix on double-clicking on a empty instrument list.
29    
30    
31    0.1.4  2007-05-04 Almost another year has gone by.
32    
33    * 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    * Master sampler volume slider/spinbox combo is now featured.
38    
39    * Initial support for sampler channel FX sends, while saving
40      the session state, only at code-level.
41    
42    * Sampler channel setup dialog does not mandate for valid nor
43      existing instrument file name.
44    
45    * 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    
52    * 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    * Added preliminary MIDI instrument mapping support; now
57      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    
61    * GPL address update.
62    
63    
64    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    * Added configure support for x86_64 libraries (UNTESTED).
70    
71    * Optional specification of alternate liblscp and libgig
72      installation paths have been added to configure command
73      arguments (--with-liblscp, --with-libgig).
74    
75    * 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    * Minor fixing on the initial messages dock-window height.
87    
88    * Audio output channel routing configuration finally hits
89      the sampler channel dialog, at last! (EXPERIMENTAL).
90    
91    * All widget captions changed to include proper application
92      title name prefix.
93    
94    * 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    * 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      argument have some effect on X11.
102    
103    * Added MUTE/SOLO buttons to individual channel strips.
104    
105    * Fixed compilation error which occured when Qt was
106      compiled with -no-stl.
107    
108    
109    0.1.2   2005-06-23 Even minor workings needs a rest.
110    
111    * Fixed output disability when messages limit option is
112      turned off (thanks to Wolfgang Woehl for spotting this
113      one, while on qjackctl).
114    
115    * Added CHANNEL_INFO event feedback notification handling;
116      minor stream/voice usage auto-refresh cycle optimization.
117    
118    
119    0.1.1   2005-06-12 The mantra of bugfixes.
120    
121    * New improved and full-featured application icon, thanks
122      to Christian Schoenebeck design.
123    
124    * Fixed refresh cycle of channel strips that are found
125      in an error state, which was preventing correct channel
126      info updates.
127    
128    * Device configuration now accessible on toolbar. Added
129      buddy text label to device port/channel combobox on the
130      device dialog.
131    
132    * Include libgig version info on command line request (-v).
133    
134    * 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      Mayat, for pointing these out).
138    
139    
140    0.1.0   2005-05-23  Device configuration breakthrough.
141    
142    * Device configuration is now complete (EXPERIMENTAL).
143    
144    * [bug #9] Fixed for a LSCP command syntax convention
145      consistency, regarding the enumeration of available
146      sampler engines, Audio and MIDI drivers.
147    
148    * [bug #13] Update instrument names list when a new
149      instrument file is select on the channel setup dialog.
150    
151    * Show appropriate message in channel strip while loading
152      an instrument.
153    
154    * Show libgig version in About box (in case libgig is used).
155    
156    
157    0.0.5   2005-03-04  Fifth alpha-release.
158    
159    * 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    * 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    * 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    * 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    * Drag-and-drop to an existing channel strip is now also
183      featured, allowing the in-place change of the channel
184      sampler instrument file.
185    
186    * 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      available, as the default handler is usually fatal when
193      a JACK client is zombified abruptly.
194    
195    * Messages window limit is now enforced only when the line
196      count exceeds in one third the user configured line count
197      maximum; if Qt 3.2.0+ is in use, the QTextView widget is
198      otherwise set to the optimized Qt::LogText format.
199    
200    
201    0.0.4   2004-11-19  Fourth alpha-release.
202    
203    * 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    * 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    * Almost complete rewrite of sampler channel strips internal
212      control structures.
213    
214    * 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      channel (omni mode).
219    
220    * Channel strip display glass effect has changed background
221      color to black (was green), being now an user option.
222    
223    * Minor configure fixes.
224    
225    
226    0.0.3   2004-07-06  Third alpha-release.
227    
228    * Mon-modal intrument file loading and status support.
229    
230    * Effective MIDI input port setting on channel dialog,
231      and on session file save.
232    
233    * Channel dialog gets sensible engine and driver defaults
234      on create time.
235    
236    * Implied channel reset on successful instrument load.
237    
238    
239    0.0.2   2004-06-15  Pre-revolutionary release.
240    
241    * The channel context menu is also accessible by right-clicking
242      over the empty workspace area.
243    
244  * Added small wait event loop on qsamplerMainForm::stopServer(),  * Added small wait event loop on qsamplerMainForm::stopServer(),
245    so let local server terminate gracefully and stabilize, and    so let local server terminate gracefully and stabilize, and
