4  ChangeLog  ChangeLog
5    
6  0.1.0   2005-03-14  Device configuration work in progress...  0.2.2  2009-08-01  New release cycle.
7    
8  * Device configuration interface preparations.  * Russian (qsampler_ru.ts by Alexandre Prokoudine) makes it as
9      brand first translation delivered. Thanks and welcomes whom
10      ever may follow ;)
11    
12    * Converted obsolete QMessageBox forms to standard buttons.
13    
14    * Added support for runtime max. voices / disk streams setting
15      (accessible from the "Options..." dialog). Those fine tuning
16      settings will be saved in case the user modified them and
17      automatically restored to the sampler when reconnecting to
18      a sampler the next time.
19    
20    * Grayed/disabled palette color group fix for dark color themes.
21    
22    * Fait-divers: desktop menu file touched to openSUSE conventions.
23    
24    * Due to some trouble with newer Qt >= 4.4 applications regarding
25      font size configuration, a new global user option is now available
26      to the rescue: View/Options... /Display/Other/Base font size
27      (default none).
28    
29    * Attempt to load Qt's own translation support and get rid of
30      the ever warning startup message, unless built in debug mode.
31      (transaction by Guido Scholz, while on qsynth-devel, thanks).
32    
33    * Only one application instance is now allowed to be up and
34      running, with immediate but graceful termination upon startup
35      iif an already running instance is detected, which will see its
36      main widget shown up automatically (Qt/X11 platform only).
37    
38    * Messages file logging makes its first long overdue appearance,
39      with user configurable settings in View/Options.../Server/Logging.
40    
41    * Bugfix in sampler channel dialog, driver combo boxes' content were
42      screwed.
43    
44    * Automatically add & remove channel strips as they were removed
45      e.g. by other frontends.
46    
47    * Refresh device management dialog when device informations changed,
48      e.g. on changes caused by other frontends
49      (fixes segfault on device changes)
50    
51    * Implemented MIDI device activity windows, selectable from the
52      "View" main menu.
53    
54    * Implemented MIDI activity indicator on channel strips.
55    
56    * Added FX Sends Dialog to Channel Strips.
57    
58    * Color pallete fix for the instrument name display in channel
59      strip, particularly notorious on Mac OS X builds.
60    
61    * Added dialog when the application exits which lets the user
62      decide whether to keep the LinuxSampler running or not.
63    
64    
65    0.2.1  2007-12-06  Qt4 migration was complete.
66    
67    * Added recent new support of libgig for retrieving instrument
68      names in avery fast way. If libgig provides this feature, then
69      the respective name retrieval setting in qsampler is enabled by
70      default.
71    
72    * The current selected/activated channel-strip is now visually
73      evident while in the application workspace (highlighting).
74    
75    * Make View/Menubar and Toolbar shortcuts accessible even though
76      the main menu and toobar are not visible.
77    
78    * Audio routing table is initially hidden in the dialog, when
79      creating a new sampler channel.
80    
81    * README requirements and configuration notes update.
82    
83    * Disable OK button in sampler channel form and MIDI instrument
84      form if no valid engine is selected (to avoid bothering newbie
85      users with confusing LSCP syntax errors when using the UI the
86      first time).
87    
88    * Fixed creation of devices (don't try to set device parameters
89      which the user did not touch in the device creation dialog).
90    
91    * Added Windows file path support.
92    
93    * Fixed win32/qmakefile and win32/config.h so that it compiles
94      under win32.
95    
96    * Qt4 port of the application.
97    
98    
99    0.1.5  2007-10-15 Five months later a fifth is heard.
100    
101    * Added support for LSCP escape sequences to allow loading and
102      mapping instrument files with special characters in their
103      filename, as well as special characters for instrument names
104      and instrument map names (requires LSCP v1.2 on sampler side).
105    
106    * Added new button "Edit" to the channel strips, which probably
107      does exactly what you think it does: it opens an appropriate
108      instrument editor application; the channel instrument editor
109      tool is also accessible from the main menu and toolbar.
110    
111    * Application icon is now installed to ${prefix}/share/pixmaps;
112      application desktop entry file is now included in installation;
113      spec file (RPM) is now a bit more openSUSE compliant.
114    
115    * Crash fix on double-clicking on a empty instrument list.
116    
117    
118    0.1.4  2007-05-04 Almost another year has gone by.
119    
120    * Channel button colors have changed: yellow for mute and
121      cyan for solo is now the rule, but note that this color
122      highlighting is only rendered on some widget styles.
123    
124    * Master sampler volume slider/spinbox combo is now featured.
125    
126    * Initial support for sampler channel FX sends, while saving
127      the session state, only at code-level.
128    
129    * Sampler channel setup dialog does not mandate for valid nor
130      existing instrument file name.
131    
132    * Revised error verbosity in general and on session load/save;
133      hour-glass wait cursor is now displayed on session load/save;
134      keyboard shortcuts changed on MIDI instruments view context;
135      improved channel strip arrangement on session open/load;
136      instrument map entry removal confirmation (as optional);
137      corrected some tooltip text strings.
138    
139    * Most top-level widgets were missing the normal-widget flag,
140      which were causing some sticky size behavior while on some
141      window managers.
142    
143    * Added preliminary MIDI instrument mapping support; now
144      with an instrument list widget and editing capabilities;
145      MIDI instrumeent map program numbers are now displayed in
146      the range 1-128, instead of the internal 0-127.
147    
148    * GPL address update.
149    
150    
151    0.1.3   2006-06-01 Its been a long year isn't it?
152    
153    * Changed deprecated copyright attribute to license,
154      on qsampler.spec (RPM).
155    
156    * Added configure support for x86_64 libraries (UNTESTED).
157    
158    * Optional specification of alternate liblscp and libgig
159      installation paths have been added to configure command
160      arguments (--with-liblscp, --with-libgig).
161    
162    * Whenever the listing of actual instrument names is not an
163      option (e.g. due to lack of libgig support), the whole
164      number of selectable instrument items is now being graciously
165      increased from just the bare 8 (eight) right up through 100
166      (one hundred), on the sampler channel setup dialog.
167    
168    * The selection buttons, on the right of the Instrument, Audio
169      and MIDI devices combo-boxes, on the sampler channel dialog,
170      are now expected to be a little better looking than it was
171      before, at least for those Mac OS X eyes.
172    
173    * Minor fixing on the initial messages dock-window height.
174    
175    * Audio output channel routing configuration finally hits
176      the sampler channel dialog, at last! (EXPERIMENTAL).
177    
178    * All widget captions changed to include proper application
179      title name prefix.
180    
181    * Attempt to bring those aging autoconf templates to date;
182      sample SPEC file for RPM build is now being included and
183      generated at configure time.
184    
185    * Set to use QApplication::setMainWidget() instead of
186      registering the traditional lastWindowClosed() signal
187      to quit() slot, just to let the -geometry command line
188      argument have some effect on X11.
189    
190    * Added MUTE/SOLO buttons to individual channel strips.
191    
192    * Fixed compilation error which occured when Qt was
193      compiled with -no-stl.
194    
195    
196    0.1.2   2005-06-23 Even minor workings needs a rest.
197    
198    * Fixed output disability when messages limit option is
199      turned off (thanks to Wolfgang Woehl for spotting this
200      one, while on qjackctl).
201    
202    * Added CHANNEL_INFO event feedback notification handling;
203      minor stream/voice usage auto-refresh cycle optimization.
204    
205    
206    0.1.1   2005-06-12 The mantra of bugfixes.
207    
208    * New improved and full-featured application icon, thanks
209      to Christian Schoenebeck design.
210    
211    * Fixed refresh cycle of channel strips that are found
212      in an error state, which was preventing correct channel
213      info updates.
214    
215    * Device configuration now accessible on toolbar. Added
216      buddy text label to device port/channel combobox on the
217      device dialog.
218    
219    * Include libgig version info on command line request (-v).
220    
221    * Minor configure and Makefile install fixes, as Debian and
222      Mac OS X specialties. Also, install does the right thing
223      with target file modes (thanks to Matt Flax and Ebrahim
224      Mayat, for pointing these out).
225    
226    
227    0.1.0   2005-05-23  Device configuration breakthrough.
228    
229    * Device configuration is now complete (EXPERIMENTAL).
230    
231    * [bug #9] Fixed for a LSCP command syntax convention
232      consistency, regarding the enumeration of available
233      sampler engines, Audio and MIDI drivers.
