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