7
8 * Initial support for sampler channel FX sends, while saving
9 the session state, only at code-level.
10
11 * Sampler channel setup dialog does not mandate for valid nor
12 existing instrument file name.
13
14 * Revised error verbosity in general and on session load/save;
15 hour-glass wait cursor is now displayed on session load/save;
16 keyboard shortcuts changed on MIDI instruments view context;
17 improved channel strip arrangement on session open/load;
18 instrument map entry removal confirmation (as optional);
19 corrected some tooltip text strings.
20
21 * Most top-level widgets were missing the normal-widget flag,
22 which were causing some sticky size behavior while on some
23 window managers.
24
25 * Added preliminary MIDI instrument mapping support; now
26 with an instrument list widget and editing capabilities;
27 MIDI instrumeent map program numbers are now displayed in
28 the range 1-128, instead of the internal 0-127.
29
30 * GPL address update.
31
32
33 0.1.3 2006-06-01 Its been a long year isn't it?
34
35 * Changed deprecated copyright attribute to license,
36 on qsampler.spec (RPM).
37
38 * Added configure support for x86_64 libraries (UNTESTED).
39
40 * Optional specification of alternate liblscp and libgig
41 installation paths have been added to configure command
42 arguments (--with-liblscp, --with-libgig).
43
44 * Whenever the listing of actual instrument names is not an
45 option (e.g. due to lack of libgig support), the whole
46 number of selectable instrument items is now being graciously
47 increased from just the bare 8 (eight) right up through 100
48 (one hundred), on the sampler channel setup dialog.
49
50 * The selection buttons, on the right of the Instrument, Audio
51 and MIDI devices combo-boxes, on the sampler channel dialog,
52 are now expected to be a little better looking than it was
53 before, at least for those Mac OS X eyes.
54
55 * Minor fixing on the initial messages dock-window height.
56
57 * Audio output channel routing configuration finally hits
58 the sampler channel dialog, at last! (EXPERIMENTAL).
59
60 * All widget captions changed to include proper application
61 title name prefix.
62
63 * Attempt to bring those aging autoconf templates to date;
64 sample SPEC file for RPM build is now being included and
65 generated at configure time.
66
67 * Set to use QApplication::setMainWidget() instead of
68 registering the traditional lastWindowClosed() signal
69 to quit() slot, just to let the -geometry command line
70 argument have some effect on X11.
71
72 * Added MUTE/SOLO buttons to individual channel strips.
73
74 * Fixed compilation error which occured when Qt was
75 compiled with -no-stl.
76
77
78 0.1.2 2005-06-23 Even minor workings needs a rest.
79
80 * Fixed output disability when messages limit option is
81 turned off (thanks to Wolfgang Woehl for spotting this
82 one, while on qjackctl).
83
84 * Added CHANNEL_INFO event feedback notification handling;
85 minor stream/voice usage auto-refresh cycle optimization.
86
87
88 0.1.1 2005-06-12 The mantra of bugfixes.
89
90 * New improved and full-featured application icon, thanks
91 to Christian Schoenebeck design.
92
93 * Fixed refresh cycle of channel strips that are found
94 in an error state, which was preventing correct channel
95 info updates.
96
97 * Device configuration now accessible on toolbar. Added
98 buddy text label to device port/channel combobox on the
99 device dialog.
100
101 * Include libgig version info on command line request (-v).
102
103 * Minor configure and Makefile install fixes, as Debian and
104 Mac OS X specialties. Also, install does the right thing
105 with target file modes (thanks to Matt Flax and Ebrahim
106 Mayat, for pointing these out).
107
108
109 0.1.0 2005-05-23 Device configuration breakthrough.
110
111 * Device configuration is now complete (EXPERIMENTAL).
112
113 * [bug #9] Fixed for a LSCP command syntax convention
114 consistency, regarding the enumeration of available
115 sampler engines, Audio and MIDI drivers.
116
117 * [bug #13] Update instrument names list when a new
118 instrument file is select on the channel setup dialog.
119
120 * Show appropriate message in channel strip while loading
121 an instrument.
122
123 * Show libgig version in About box (in case libgig is used).
124
125
126 0.0.5 2005-03-04 Fifth alpha-release.
127
128 * Fixed device driver type channel information gathering,
129 which was severely flawed, dropping all channel session
130 configurations to the default audio driver type (which
131 is ALSA) unexpectedly.
132
133 * Channels are now properly renumbered when saving to a
134 session LSCP script, assuming that it should be always
135 loaded from scratch (i.e. zero channels).
136
137 * Disabled MIDI port setting on channel dialog, and on
138 session file save, as its use is still troublesome.
139
140 * Added new menu and toolbar option: Reset All Channels.
141
142 * Channel setup changes are now properly filtered, as for
143 only those settings that are actually changed gets applied;
144 change information are now also posted to messages window.
145
146 * Drag-and-drop of either session files (LSCP scripts) or
147 instrument files (GIG) are now supported. Multiple files
148 drop is allowed, but it only makes sense for instrument
149 files, each one prompting to create a new sampler channel.
150
151 * Drag-and-drop to an existing channel strip is now also
152 featured, allowing the in-place change of the channel
153 sampler instrument file.
154
155 * Actual instrument names are now optionally retrieved
156 from the instrument file, even though libgig is available,
157 avoiding excessively annoying load times while on the
158 channel dialog, when huge instrument files are selected.
159
160 * Set to ignore the SIGPIPE ("Broken pipe") signal, where
161 available, as the default handler is usually fatal when
162 a JACK client is zombified abruptly.
163
164 * Messages window limit is now enforced only when the line
165 count exceeds in one third the user configured line count
166 maximum; if Qt 3.2.0+ is in use, the QTextView widget is
167 otherwise set to the optimized Qt::LogText format.
168
169
170 0.0.4 2004-11-19 Fourth alpha-release.
171
172 * Instrument index selection now made via combo box widget;
173 actual instrument names are now properly retrieved from
174 the instrument file, provided if libgig is available.
175
176 * Sampler channels strips are just created if, and only if,
177 the respective channel setup dialog is actually accepted,
178 following common user-interface guidelines.
179
180 * Almost complete rewrite of sampler channel strips internal
181 control structures.
182
183 * Sampler reset command action added to menu and toolbar.
184
185 * MIDI channel selection is now a dropdown list, allowing
186 the explicit selection for "All" channels input per sampler
187 channel (omni mode).
188
189 * Channel strip display glass effect has changed background
190 color to black (was green), being now an user option.
191
192 * Minor configure fixes.
193
194
195 0.0.3 2004-07-06 Third alpha-release.
196
197 * Mon-modal intrument file loading and status support.
198
199 * Effective MIDI input port setting on channel dialog,
200 and on session file save.
201
202 * Channel dialog gets sensible engine and driver defaults
203 on create time.
204
205 * Implied channel reset on successful instrument load.
206
207
208 0.0.2 2004-06-15 Pre-revolutionary release.
209
210 * The channel context menu is also accessible by right-clicking
211 over the empty workspace area.
212
213 * Added small wait event loop on qsamplerMainForm::stopServer(),
214 so let local server terminate gracefully and stabilize, and
215 avoiding a probable segfault on exit, which was preventing the
216 correct salvage of settings and configuration.
217
218 * Maximum channel volume percent setting is now a global option,
219 provided to override the default (which is 100%).
220
221 * Client/server transaction timeout option upper limit has been
222 increased from 5000 to 60000 milliseconds.
223
224 * A channel context menu is now featured, by right-clicking over
225 each sampler channel strip.
226
227 * Commented SET CHANNEL MIDI_INPUT_PORT command from
228 qsamplerMainForm::saveSessionFile(), it has no effect.
229
230 * Insert a n #include <unistd.h> on qsamplerMessages.cpp, between
231 a #if !defined(WIN32) clause.
232
233 * An initial non zero value (0.8) is now set for volume of every
234 new sampler channel strip.
235
236 * The order to load/save and setup channel settings is now as
237 suggested in the following lines:
238
239 SET CHANNEL AUDIO_OUTPUT_TYPE ...
240 SET CHANNEL MIDI_INPUT_TYPE ...
241 SET CHANNEL MIDI_INPUT_CHANNEL ...
242 LOAD ENGINE ...
243 LOAD INSTRUMENT ...
244 SET CHANNEL VOLUME ...
245
246
247 0.0.1 2004-06-05 Primordial alpha release.
