8 * Sampler channel setup dialog does not mandate for valid nor
9 existing instrument file name; dropped MIDI port from sampler
10 channel strip display, only MIDI channel is now displayed.
11
12 * Revised error verbosity in general and on session load/save;
13 hour-glass wait cursor is now displayed on session load/save;
14 keyboard shortcuts changed on MIDI instruments view context;
15 improved channel strip arrangement on session open/load;
16 instrument map entry removal confirmation (as optional);
17 corrected some tooltip text strings.
18
19 * Most top-level widgets were missing the normal-widget flag,
20 which were causing some sticky size behavior while on some
21 window managers.
22
23 * Added preliminary MIDI instrument mapping support; now
24 with an instrument list widget and editing capabilities;
25 MIDI instrumeent map program numbers are now displayed in
26 the range 1-128, instead of the internal 0-127.
27
28 * GPL address update.
29
30
31 0.1.3 2006-06-01 Its been a long year isn't it?
32
33 * Changed deprecated copyright attribute to license,
34 on qsampler.spec (RPM).
35
36 * Added configure support for x86_64 libraries (UNTESTED).
37
38 * Optional specification of alternate liblscp and libgig
39 installation paths have been added to configure command
40 arguments (--with-liblscp, --with-libgig).
41
42 * Whenever the listing of actual instrument names is not an
43 option (e.g. due to lack of libgig support), the whole
44 number of selectable instrument items is now being graciously
45 increased from just the bare 8 (eight) right up through 100
46 (one hundred), on the sampler channel setup dialog.
47
48 * The selection buttons, on the right of the Instrument, Audio
49 and MIDI devices combo-boxes, on the sampler channel dialog,
50 are now expected to be a little better looking than it was
51 before, at least for those Mac OS X eyes.
52
53 * Minor fixing on the initial messages dock-window height.
54
55 * Audio output channel routing configuration finally hits
56 the sampler channel dialog, at last! (EXPERIMENTAL).
57
58 * All widget captions changed to include proper application
59 title name prefix.
60
61 * Attempt to bring those aging autoconf templates to date;
62 sample SPEC file for RPM build is now being included and
63 generated at configure time.
64
65 * Set to use QApplication::setMainWidget() instead of
66 registering the traditional lastWindowClosed() signal
67 to quit() slot, just to let the -geometry command line
68 argument have some effect on X11.
69
70 * Added MUTE/SOLO buttons to individual channel strips.
71
72 * Fixed compilation error which occured when Qt was
73 compiled with -no-stl.
74
75
76 0.1.2 2005-06-23 Even minor workings needs a rest.
77
78 * Fixed output disability when messages limit option is
79 turned off (thanks to Wolfgang Woehl for spotting this
80 one, while on qjackctl).
81
82 * Added CHANNEL_INFO event feedback notification handling;
83 minor stream/voice usage auto-refresh cycle optimization.
84
85
86 0.1.1 2005-06-12 The mantra of bugfixes.
87
88 * New improved and full-featured application icon, thanks
89 to Christian Schoenebeck design.
90
91 * Fixed refresh cycle of channel strips that are found
92 in an error state, which was preventing correct channel
93 info updates.
94
95 * Device configuration now accessible on toolbar. Added
96 buddy text label to device port/channel combobox on the
97 device dialog.
98
99 * Include libgig version info on command line request (-v).
100
101 * Minor configure and Makefile install fixes, as Debian and
102 Mac OS X specialties. Also, install does the right thing
103 with target file modes (thanks to Matt Flax and Ebrahim
104 Mayat, for pointing these out).
105
106
107 0.1.0 2005-05-23 Device configuration breakthrough.
108
109 * Device configuration is now complete (EXPERIMENTAL).
110
111 * [bug #9] Fixed for a LSCP command syntax convention
112 consistency, regarding the enumeration of available
113 sampler engines, Audio and MIDI drivers.
114
115 * [bug #13] Update instrument names list when a new
116 instrument file is select on the channel setup dialog.
117
118 * Show appropriate message in channel strip while loading
119 an instrument.
120
121 * Show libgig version in About box (in case libgig is used).
122
123
124 0.0.5 2005-03-04 Fifth alpha-release.
125
126 * Fixed device driver type channel information gathering,
127 which was severely flawed, dropping all channel session
128 configurations to the default audio driver type (which
129 is ALSA) unexpectedly.
130
131 * Channels are now properly renumbered when saving to a
132 session LSCP script, assuming that it should be always
133 loaded from scratch (i.e. zero channels).
134
135 * Disabled MIDI port setting on channel dialog, and on
136 session file save, as its use is still troublesome.
137
138 * Added new menu and toolbar option: Reset All Channels.
139
140 * Channel setup changes are now properly filtered, as for
141 only those settings that are actually changed gets applied;
142 change information are now also posted to messages window.
143
144 * Drag-and-drop of either session files (LSCP scripts) or
145 instrument files (GIG) are now supported. Multiple files
146 drop is allowed, but it only makes sense for instrument
147 files, each one prompting to create a new sampler channel.
148
149 * Drag-and-drop to an existing channel strip is now also
150 featured, allowing the in-place change of the channel
151 sampler instrument file.
152
153 * Actual instrument names are now optionally retrieved
154 from the instrument file, even though libgig is available,
155 avoiding excessively annoying load times while on the
156 channel dialog, when huge instrument files are selected.
157
158 * Set to ignore the SIGPIPE ("Broken pipe") signal, where
159 available, as the default handler is usually fatal when
160 a JACK client is zombified abruptly.
161
162 * Messages window limit is now enforced only when the line
163 count exceeds in one third the user configured line count
164 maximum; if Qt 3.2.0+ is in use, the QTextView widget is
165 otherwise set to the optimized Qt::LogText format.
166
167
168 0.0.4 2004-11-19 Fourth alpha-release.
169
170 * Instrument index selection now made via combo box widget;
171 actual instrument names are now properly retrieved from
172 the instrument file, provided if libgig is available.
173
174 * Sampler channels strips are just created if, and only if,
175 the respective channel setup dialog is actually accepted,
176 following common user-interface guidelines.
177
178 * Almost complete rewrite of sampler channel strips internal
179 control structures.
180
181 * Sampler reset command action added to menu and toolbar.
182
183 * MIDI channel selection is now a dropdown list, allowing
184 the explicit selection for "All" channels input per sampler
185 channel (omni mode).
186
187 * Channel strip display glass effect has changed background
188 color to black (was green), being now an user option.
189
190 * Minor configure fixes.
191
192
193 0.0.3 2004-07-06 Third alpha-release.
194
195 * Mon-modal intrument file loading and status support.
196
197 * Effective MIDI input port setting on channel dialog,
198 and on session file save.
199
200 * Channel dialog gets sensible engine and driver defaults
201 on create time.
202
203 * Implied channel reset on successful instrument load.
204
205
206 0.0.2 2004-06-15 Pre-revolutionary release.
207
208 * The channel context menu is also accessible by right-clicking
209 over the empty workspace area.
210
211 * Added small wait event loop on qsamplerMainForm::stopServer(),
212 so let local server terminate gracefully and stabilize, and
213 avoiding a probable segfault on exit, which was preventing the
214 correct salvage of settings and configuration.
215
216 * Maximum channel volume percent setting is now a global option,
217 provided to override the default (which is 100%).
218
219 * Client/server transaction timeout option upper limit has been
220 increased from 5000 to 60000 milliseconds.
221
222 * A channel context menu is now featured, by right-clicking over
223 each sampler channel strip.
224
225 * Commented SET CHANNEL MIDI_INPUT_PORT command from
226 qsamplerMainForm::saveSessionFile(), it has no effect.
227
228 * Insert a n #include <unistd.h> on qsamplerMessages.cpp, between
229 a #if !defined(WIN32) clause.
230
231 * An initial non zero value (0.8) is now set for volume of every
232 new sampler channel strip.
233
234 * The order to load/save and setup channel settings is now as
235 suggested in the following lines:
236
237 SET CHANNEL AUDIO_OUTPUT_TYPE ...
238 SET CHANNEL MIDI_INPUT_TYPE ...
239 SET CHANNEL MIDI_INPUT_CHANNEL ...
240 LOAD ENGINE ...
241 LOAD INSTRUMENT ...
242 SET CHANNEL VOLUME ...
243
244
245 0.0.1 2004-06-05 Primordial alpha release.
