5    
6  0.1.0   2005-03-18  Device configuration work in progress...  CVS HEAD
7    
8    * Attempt to load Qt's own translation support and get rid of
9      the ever warning startup message, unless built in debug mode.
10      (transaction by Guido Scholz, while on qsynth-devel, thanks).
11    
12    * Only one application instance is now allowed to be up and running,
13      with immediate but graceful termination upon startup iif an already
14      running instance is detected, which will see its main widget shown
15      up automatically (Qt/X11 platform only).
16    
17    * Messages file logging makes its first long overdue appearance,
18      with user configurable settings in View/Options.../Server/Logging.
19    
20    * Bugfix in sampler channel dialog, driver combo boxes' content were
21      screwed.
22    
23    * Automatically add & remove channel strips as they were removed e.g. by
24      other frontends.
25    
26    * Refresh device management dialog when device informations changed,
27      e.g. on changes caused by other frontends
28      (fixes segfault on device changes)
29    
30    * Implemented MIDI device activity windows, selectable from the "View"
31      main menu.
32    
33    * Implemented MIDI activity indicator on channel strips.
34    
35    * Added FX Sends Dialog to Channel Strips.
36    
37    * Color pallete fix for the instrument name display in channel strip,
38      particularly notorious on Mac OS X builds.
39    
40    * Added dialog when the application exits which lets the user decide
41      whether to keep the LinuxSampler running or not.
42    
43    
44    0.2.1  2007-12-06  Qt4 migration was complete.
45    
46    * Added recent new support of libgig for retrieving instrument names in a
47      very fast way. If libgig provides this feature, then the respective
48      name retrieval setting in qsampler is enabled by default.
49    
50    * The current selected/activated channel-strip is now visually
51      evident while in the application workspace (highlighting).
52    
53    * Make View/Menubar and Toolbar shortcuts accessible even though
54      the main menu and toobar are not visible.
55    
56    * Audio routing table is initially hidden in the dialog, when
57      creating a new sampler channel.
58    
59    * README requirements and configuration notes update.
60    
61    * Disable OK button in sampler channel form and MIDI instrument
62      form if no valid engine is selected (to avoid bothering newbie
63      users with confusing LSCP syntax errors when using the UI the
64      first time).
65    
66    * Fixed creation of devices (don't try to set device parameters
67      which the user did not touch in the device creation dialog).
68    
69    * Added Windows file path support.
70    
71    * Fixed win32/qmakefile and win32/config.h so that it compiles
72      under win32.
73    
74    * Qt4 port of the application.
75    
76    
77    0.1.5  2007-10-15 Five months later a fifth is heard.
78    
79    * Added support for LSCP escape sequences to allow loading and
80      mapping instrument files with special characters in their
81      filename, as well as special characters for instrument names
82      and instrument map names (requires LSCP v1.2 on sampler side).
83    
84    * Added new button "Edit" to the channel strips, which probably
85      does exactly what you think it does: it opens an appropriate
86      instrument editor application; the channel instrument editor
87      tool is also accessible from the main menu and toolbar.
88    
89    * Application icon is now installed to ${prefix}/share/pixmaps;
90      application desktop entry file is now included in installation;
91      spec file (RPM) is now a bit more openSUSE compliant.
92    
93    * Crash fix on double-clicking on a empty instrument list.
94    
95    
96    0.1.4  2007-05-04 Almost another year has gone by.
97    
98    * Channel button colors have changed: yellow for mute and
99      cyan for solo is now the rule, but note that this color
100      highlighting is only rendered on some widget styles.
101    
102    * Master sampler volume slider/spinbox combo is now featured.
103    
104    * Initial support for sampler channel FX sends, while saving
105      the session state, only at code-level.
106    
107    * Sampler channel setup dialog does not mandate for valid nor
108      existing instrument file name.
109    
110    * Revised error verbosity in general and on session load/save;
111      hour-glass wait cursor is now displayed on session load/save;
112      keyboard shortcuts changed on MIDI instruments view context;
113      improved channel strip arrangement on session open/load;
114      instrument map entry removal confirmation (as optional);
115      corrected some tooltip text strings.
116    
117    * Most top-level widgets were missing the normal-widget flag,
118      which were causing some sticky size behavior while on some
119      window managers.
120    
121    * Added preliminary MIDI instrument mapping support; now
122      with an instrument list widget and editing capabilities;
123      MIDI instrumeent map program numbers are now displayed in
124      the range 1-128, instead of the internal 0-127.
125    
126    * GPL address update.
127    
128    
129    0.1.3   2006-06-01 Its been a long year isn't it?
130    
131    * Changed deprecated copyright attribute to license,
132      on qsampler.spec (RPM).
133    
134    * Added configure support for x86_64 libraries (UNTESTED).
135    
136    * Optional specification of alternate liblscp and libgig
137      installation paths have been added to configure command
138      arguments (--with-liblscp, --with-libgig).
139    
140    * Whenever the listing of actual instrument names is not an
141      option (e.g. due to lack of libgig support), the whole
142      number of selectable instrument items is now being graciously
143      increased from just the bare 8 (eight) right up through 100
144      (one hundred), on the sampler channel setup dialog.
145    
146    * The selection buttons, on the right of the Instrument, Audio
147      and MIDI devices combo-boxes, on the sampler channel dialog,
148      are now expected to be a little better looking than it was
149      before, at least for those Mac OS X eyes.
150    
151    * Minor fixing on the initial messages dock-window height.
152    
153    * Audio output channel routing configuration finally hits
154      the sampler channel dialog, at last! (EXPERIMENTAL).
155    
156    * All widget captions changed to include proper application
157      title name prefix.
158    
159    * Attempt to bring those aging autoconf templates to date;
160      sample SPEC file for RPM build is now being included and
161      generated at configure time.
162    
163    * Set to use QApplication::setMainWidget() instead of
164      registering the traditional lastWindowClosed() signal
165      to quit() slot, just to let the -geometry command line
166      argument have some effect on X11.
167    
168    * Added MUTE/SOLO buttons to individual channel strips.
169    
170    * Fixed compilation error which occured when Qt was
171      compiled with -no-stl.
172    
173    
174    0.1.2   2005-06-23 Even minor workings needs a rest.
175    
176    * Fixed output disability when messages limit option is
177      turned off (thanks to Wolfgang Woehl for spotting this
178      one, while on qjackctl).
179    
180    * Added CHANNEL_INFO event feedback notification handling;
181      minor stream/voice usage auto-refresh cycle optimization.
182    
183    
184    0.1.1   2005-06-12 The mantra of bugfixes.
185    
186    * New improved and full-featured application icon, thanks
187      to Christian Schoenebeck design.
188    
189    * Fixed refresh cycle of channel strips that are found
190      in an error state, which was preventing correct channel
191      info updates.
192    
193    * Device configuration now accessible on toolbar. Added
194      buddy text label to device port/channel combobox on the
195      device dialog.
196    
197    * Include libgig version info on command line request (-v).
198    
199    * Minor configure and Makefile install fixes, as Debian and
200      Mac OS X specialties. Also, install does the right thing
201      with target file modes (thanks to Matt Flax and Ebrahim
202      Mayat, for pointing these out).
203    
204    
205    0.1.0   2005-05-23  Device configuration breakthrough.
206    
207  * Device configuration is now complete (EXPERIMENTAL).  * Device configuration is now complete (EXPERIMENTAL).
208    
209    * [bug #9] Fixed for a LSCP command syntax convention
210      consistency, regarding the enumeration of available
211      sampler engines, Audio and MIDI drivers.
