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