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