4  ChangeLog  ChangeLog
5    
6  0.0.2   2004-06-12  Work in progress...  CVS HEAD
7    
8    * 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    * 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    * Fixed creation of devices (don't try to set device parameters
19      which the user did not touch in the device creation dialog).
20    
21    * Added Windows file path support.
22    
23    * Fixed win32/qmakefile and win32/config.h so that it compiles
24      under win32.
25    
26    * Qt4 port of the application.
27    
28    
29    0.1.5  2007-10-15 Five months later a fifth is heard.
30    
31    * Added support for LSCP escape sequences to allow loading and
32      mapping instrument files with special characters in their
33      filename, as well as special characters for instrument names
34      and instrument map names (requires LSCP v1.2 on sampler side).
35    
36    * 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    * 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    * Crash fix on double-clicking on a empty instrument list.
46    
47    
48    0.1.4  2007-05-04 Almost another year has gone by.
49    
50    * 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    * Master sampler volume slider/spinbox combo is now featured.
55    
56    * Initial support for sampler channel FX sends, while saving
57      the session state, only at code-level.
58    
59    * Sampler channel setup dialog does not mandate for valid nor
60      existing instrument file name.
61    
62    * 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    
69    * 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    * Added preliminary MIDI instrument mapping support; now
74      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    
78    * GPL address update.
79    
80    
81    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    * Added configure support for x86_64 libraries (UNTESTED).
87    
88    * Optional specification of alternate liblscp and libgig
89      installation paths have been added to configure command
90      arguments (--with-liblscp, --with-libgig).
91    
92    * 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    * Minor fixing on the initial messages dock-window height.
104    
105    * Audio output channel routing configuration finally hits
106      the sampler channel dialog, at last! (EXPERIMENTAL).
107    
108    * All widget captions changed to include proper application
109      title name prefix.
110    
111    * 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    * 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      argument have some effect on X11.
119    
120    * Added MUTE/SOLO buttons to individual channel strips.
121    
122    * Fixed compilation error which occured when Qt was
123      compiled with -no-stl.
124    
125    
126    0.1.2   2005-06-23 Even minor workings needs a rest.
127    
128    * Fixed output disability when messages limit option is
129      turned off (thanks to Wolfgang Woehl for spotting this
130      one, while on qjackctl).
131    
132    * Added CHANNEL_INFO event feedback notification handling;
133      minor stream/voice usage auto-refresh cycle optimization.
134    
135    
136    0.1.1   2005-06-12 The mantra of bugfixes.
137    
138    * New improved and full-featured application icon, thanks
139      to Christian Schoenebeck design.
140    
141    * Fixed refresh cycle of channel strips that are found
142      in an error state, which was preventing correct channel
143      info updates.
144    
145    * Device configuration now accessible on toolbar. Added
146      buddy text label to device port/channel combobox on the
147      device dialog.
148    
149    * Include libgig version info on command line request (-v).
150    
151    * 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      Mayat, for pointing these out).
155    
156    
157    0.1.0   2005-05-23  Device configuration breakthrough.
158    
159    * Device configuration is now complete (EXPERIMENTAL).
160    
161    * [bug #9] Fixed for a LSCP command syntax convention
162      consistency, regarding the enumeration of available
163      sampler engines, Audio and MIDI drivers.
164    
165    * [bug #13] Update instrument names list when a new
166      instrument file is select on the channel setup dialog.
167    
168    * Show appropriate message in channel strip while loading
169      an instrument.
170    
171    * Show libgig version in About box (in case libgig is used).
172    
173    
174    0.0.5   2005-03-04  Fifth alpha-release.
175    
176    * 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    * 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    * 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    * 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    * Drag-and-drop to an existing channel strip is now also
200      featured, allowing the in-place change of the channel
201      sampler instrument file.
202    
203    * 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      available, as the default handler is usually fatal when
210      a JACK client is zombified abruptly.
211    
212    * Messages window limit is now enforced only when the line
213      count exceeds in one third the user configured line count
214      maximum; if Qt 3.2.0+ is in use, the QTextView widget is
215      otherwise set to the optimized Qt::LogText format.
216    
217    
218    0.0.4   2004-11-19  Fourth alpha-release.
219    
220    * 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    * 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    * Almost complete rewrite of sampler channel strips internal
229      control structures.
230    
231    * 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      channel (omni mode).
236    
237    * Channel strip display glass effect has changed background
238      color to black (was green), being now an user option.
239    
240    * Minor configure fixes.
241    
242    
243    0.0.3   2004-07-06  Third alpha-release.
244    
245    * Mon-modal intrument file loading and status support.
246    
247    * Effective MIDI input port setting on channel dialog,
248      and on session file save.
249    
250    * Channel dialog gets sensible engine and driver defaults
251      on create time.
252    
253    * Implied channel reset on successful instrument load.
254    
255    
256    0.0.2   2004-06-15  Pre-revolutionary release.
257    
258    * The channel context menu is also accessible by right-clicking
259      over the empty workspace area.
260    
261  * Added small wait event loop on qsamplerMainForm::stopServer(),  * Added small wait event loop on qsamplerMainForm::stopServer(),
262    so let local server terminate gracefully and stabilize, and    so let local server terminate gracefully and stabilize, and
