5    
6  0.0.2   2004-06-12  Work in progress...  CVS HEAD
7    
8    * The current selected/activated channel-strip is now visually
9      evident while in the application workspace (highlighting).
10    
11    * Make View/Menubar and Toolbar shortcuts accessible even though
12      the main menu and toobar are not visible.
13    
14    * Audio routing table is initially hidden in the dialog, when
15      creating a new sampler channel.
16    
17    * README requirements and configuration notes update.
18    
19    * Disable OK button in sampler channel form and MIDI instrument
20      form if no valid engine is selected (to avoid bothering newbie
21      users with confusing LSCP syntax errors when using the UI the
22      first time).
23    
24    * Fixed creation of devices (don't try to set device parameters
25      which the user did not touch in the device creation dialog).
26    
27    * Added Windows file path support.
28    
29    * Fixed win32/qmakefile and win32/config.h so that it compiles
30      under win32.
31    
32    * Qt4 port of the application.
33    
34    
35    0.1.5  2007-10-15 Five months later a fifth is heard.
36    
37    * Added support for LSCP escape sequences to allow loading and
38      mapping instrument files with special characters in their
39      filename, as well as special characters for instrument names
40      and instrument map names (requires LSCP v1.2 on sampler side).
41    
42    * Added new button "Edit" to the channel strips, which probably
43      does exactly what you think it does: it opens an appropriate
44      instrument editor application; the channel instrument editor
45      tool is also accessible from the main menu and toolbar.
46    
47    * Application icon is now installed to ${prefix}/share/pixmaps;
48      application desktop entry file is now included in installation;
49      spec file (RPM) is now a bit more openSUSE compliant.
50    
51    * Crash fix on double-clicking on a empty instrument list.
52    
53    
54    0.1.4  2007-05-04 Almost another year has gone by.
55    
56    * Channel button colors have changed: yellow for mute and
57      cyan for solo is now the rule, but note that this color
58      highlighting is only rendered on some widget styles.
59    
60    * Master sampler volume slider/spinbox combo is now featured.
61    
62    * Initial support for sampler channel FX sends, while saving
63      the session state, only at code-level.
64    
65    * Sampler channel setup dialog does not mandate for valid nor
66      existing instrument file name.
67    
68    * Revised error verbosity in general and on session load/save;
69      hour-glass wait cursor is now displayed on session load/save;
70      keyboard shortcuts changed on MIDI instruments view context;
71      improved channel strip arrangement on session open/load;
72      instrument map entry removal confirmation (as optional);
73      corrected some tooltip text strings.
74    
75    * Most top-level widgets were missing the normal-widget flag,
76      which were causing some sticky size behavior while on some
77      window managers.
78    
79    * Added preliminary MIDI instrument mapping support; now
80      with an instrument list widget and editing capabilities;
81      MIDI instrumeent map program numbers are now displayed in
82      the range 1-128, instead of the internal 0-127.
83    
84    * GPL address update.
85    
86    
87    0.1.3   2006-06-01 Its been a long year isn't it?
88    
89    * Changed deprecated copyright attribute to license,
90      on qsampler.spec (RPM).
91    
92    * Added configure support for x86_64 libraries (UNTESTED).
93    
94    * Optional specification of alternate liblscp and libgig
95      installation paths have been added to configure command
96      arguments (--with-liblscp, --with-libgig).
97    
98    * Whenever the listing of actual instrument names is not an
99      option (e.g. due to lack of libgig support), the whole
100      number of selectable instrument items is now being graciously
101      increased from just the bare 8 (eight) right up through 100
102      (one hundred), on the sampler channel setup dialog.
103    
104    * The selection buttons, on the right of the Instrument, Audio
105      and MIDI devices combo-boxes, on the sampler channel dialog,
106      are now expected to be a little better looking than it was
107      before, at least for those Mac OS X eyes.
108    
109    * Minor fixing on the initial messages dock-window height.
110    
111    * Audio output channel routing configuration finally hits
112      the sampler channel dialog, at last! (EXPERIMENTAL).
113    
114    * All widget captions changed to include proper application
115      title name prefix.
116    
117    * Attempt to bring those aging autoconf templates to date;
118      sample SPEC file for RPM build is now being included and
119      generated at configure time.
120    
121    * Set to use QApplication::setMainWidget() instead of
122      registering the traditional lastWindowClosed() signal
123      to quit() slot, just to let the -geometry command line
124      argument have some effect on X11.
125    
126    * Added MUTE/SOLO buttons to individual channel strips.
127    
128    * Fixed compilation error which occured when Qt was
129      compiled with -no-stl.
130    
131    
132    0.1.2   2005-06-23 Even minor workings needs a rest.
133    
134    * Fixed output disability when messages limit option is
135      turned off (thanks to Wolfgang Woehl for spotting this
136      one, while on qjackctl).
137    
138    * Added CHANNEL_INFO event feedback notification handling;
139      minor stream/voice usage auto-refresh cycle optimization.
140    
141    
142    0.1.1   2005-06-12 The mantra of bugfixes.
143    
144    * New improved and full-featured application icon, thanks
145      to Christian Schoenebeck design.
146    
147    * Fixed refresh cycle of channel strips that are found
148      in an error state, which was preventing correct channel
149      info updates.
150    
151    * Device configuration now accessible on toolbar. Added
152      buddy text label to device port/channel combobox on the
153      device dialog.
154    
155    * Include libgig version info on command line request (-v).
156    
157    * Minor configure and Makefile install fixes, as Debian and
158      Mac OS X specialties. Also, install does the right thing
159      with target file modes (thanks to Matt Flax and Ebrahim
160      Mayat, for pointing these out).
161    
162    
163    0.1.0   2005-05-23  Device configuration breakthrough.
164    
165    * Device configuration is now complete (EXPERIMENTAL).
166    
167    * [bug #9] Fixed for a LSCP command syntax convention
168      consistency, regarding the enumeration of available
169      sampler engines, Audio and MIDI drivers.
170    
171    * [bug #13] Update instrument names list when a new
172      instrument file is select on the channel setup dialog.
173    
174    * Show appropriate message in channel strip while loading
175      an instrument.
176    
177    * Show libgig version in About box (in case libgig is used).
178    
179    
180    0.0.5   2005-03-04  Fifth alpha-release.
181    
182    * Fixed device driver type channel information gathering,
183      which was severely flawed, dropping all channel session
184      configurations to the default audio driver type (which
185      is ALSA) unexpectedly.
186    
187    * Channels are now properly renumbered when saving to a
188      session LSCP script, assuming that it should be always
189      loaded from scratch (i.e. zero channels).
190    
191    * Disabled MIDI port setting on channel dialog, and on
192      session file save, as its use is still troublesome.
193    
194    * Added new menu and toolbar option: Reset All Channels.
195    
196    * Channel setup changes are now properly filtered, as for
197      only those settings that are actually changed gets applied;
198      change information are now also posted to messages window.
199    
200    * Drag-and-drop of either session files (LSCP scripts) or
201      instrument files (GIG) are now supported. Multiple files
202      drop is allowed, but it only makes sense for instrument
203      files, each one prompting to create a new sampler channel.
204    
205    * Drag-and-drop to an existing channel strip is now also
206      featured, allowing the in-place change of the channel
207      sampler instrument file.
208    
209    * Actual instrument names are now optionally retrieved
210      from the instrument file, even though libgig is available,
211      avoiding excessively annoying load times while on the
212      channel dialog, when huge instrument files are selected.
213    
214    * Set to ignore the SIGPIPE ("Broken pipe") signal, where
215      available, as the default handler is usually fatal when
216      a JACK client is zombified abruptly.
217    
218    * Messages window limit is now enforced only when the line
219      count exceeds in one third the user configured line count
220      maximum; if Qt 3.2.0+ is in use, the QTextView widget is
221      otherwise set to the optimized Qt::LogText format.
222    
223    
224    0.0.4   2004-11-19  Fourth alpha-release.
225    
226    * Instrument index selection now made via combo box widget;
227      actual instrument names are now properly retrieved from
228      the instrument file, provided if libgig is available.
229    
230    * Sampler channels strips are just created if, and only if,
231      the respective channel setup dialog is actually accepted,
232      following common user-interface guidelines.
233    
234    * Almost complete rewrite of sampler channel strips internal
235      control structures.
236    
237    * Sampler reset command action added to menu and toolbar.
238    
239    * MIDI channel selection is now a dropdown list, allowing
240      the explicit selection for "All" channels input per sampler
241      channel (omni mode).
242    
243    * Channel strip display glass effect has changed background
244      color to black (was green), being now an user option.
245    
246    * Minor configure fixes.
247    
248    
249    0.0.3   2004-07-06  Third alpha-release.
250    
251    * Mon-modal intrument file loading and status support.
252    
253    * Effective MIDI input port setting on channel dialog,
254      and on session file save.
255    
256    * Channel dialog gets sensible engine and driver defaults
257      on create time.
258    
259    * Implied channel reset on successful instrument load.
260    
261    
262    0.0.2   2004-06-15  Pre-revolutionary release.
263    
264    * The channel context menu is also accessible by right-clicking
265      over the empty workspace area.
266    
267  * Added small wait event loop on qsamplerMainForm::stopServer(),  * Added small wait event loop on qsamplerMainForm::stopServer(),
268    so let local server terminate gracefully and stabilize, and    so let local server terminate gracefully and stabilize, and
