8 * Application icon is now installed to ${prefix}/share/pixmaps;
9 application desktop entry file is now included in installation;
10 spec file (RPM) is now a bit more openSUSE compliant.
11
12 * Crash fix on double-clicking on a empty instrument list.
13
14
15 0.1.4 2007-05-04 Almost another year has gone by.
16
17 * Channel button colors have changed: yellow for mute and
18 cyan for solo is now the rule, but note that this color
19 highlighting is only rendered on some widget styles.
20
21 * Master sampler volume slider/spinbox combo is now featured.
22
23 * Initial support for sampler channel FX sends, while saving
24 the session state, only at code-level.
25
26 * Sampler channel setup dialog does not mandate for valid nor
27 existing instrument file name.
28
29 * Revised error verbosity in general and on session load/save;
30 hour-glass wait cursor is now displayed on session load/save;
31 keyboard shortcuts changed on MIDI instruments view context;
32 improved channel strip arrangement on session open/load;
33 instrument map entry removal confirmation (as optional);
34 corrected some tooltip text strings.
35
36 * Most top-level widgets were missing the normal-widget flag,
37 which were causing some sticky size behavior while on some
38 window managers.
39
40 * Added preliminary MIDI instrument mapping support; now
41 with an instrument list widget and editing capabilities;
42 MIDI instrumeent map program numbers are now displayed in
43 the range 1-128, instead of the internal 0-127.
44
45 * GPL address update.
46
47
48 0.1.3 2006-06-01 Its been a long year isn't it?
49
50 * Changed deprecated copyright attribute to license,
51 on qsampler.spec (RPM).
52
53 * Added configure support for x86_64 libraries (UNTESTED).
54
55 * Optional specification of alternate liblscp and libgig
56 installation paths have been added to configure command
57 arguments (--with-liblscp, --with-libgig).
58
59 * Whenever the listing of actual instrument names is not an
60 option (e.g. due to lack of libgig support), the whole
61 number of selectable instrument items is now being graciously
62 increased from just the bare 8 (eight) right up through 100
63 (one hundred), on the sampler channel setup dialog.
64
65 * The selection buttons, on the right of the Instrument, Audio
66 and MIDI devices combo-boxes, on the sampler channel dialog,
67 are now expected to be a little better looking than it was
68 before, at least for those Mac OS X eyes.
69
70 * Minor fixing on the initial messages dock-window height.
71
72 * Audio output channel routing configuration finally hits
73 the sampler channel dialog, at last! (EXPERIMENTAL).
74
75 * All widget captions changed to include proper application
76 title name prefix.
77
78 * Attempt to bring those aging autoconf templates to date;
79 sample SPEC file for RPM build is now being included and
80 generated at configure time.
81
82 * Set to use QApplication::setMainWidget() instead of
83 registering the traditional lastWindowClosed() signal
84 to quit() slot, just to let the -geometry command line
85 argument have some effect on X11.
86
87 * Added MUTE/SOLO buttons to individual channel strips.
88
89 * Fixed compilation error which occured when Qt was
90 compiled with -no-stl.
91
92
93 0.1.2 2005-06-23 Even minor workings needs a rest.
94
95 * Fixed output disability when messages limit option is
96 turned off (thanks to Wolfgang Woehl for spotting this
97 one, while on qjackctl).
98
99 * Added CHANNEL_INFO event feedback notification handling;
100 minor stream/voice usage auto-refresh cycle optimization.
101
102
103 0.1.1 2005-06-12 The mantra of bugfixes.
104
105 * New improved and full-featured application icon, thanks
106 to Christian Schoenebeck design.
107
108 * Fixed refresh cycle of channel strips that are found
109 in an error state, which was preventing correct channel
110 info updates.
111
112 * Device configuration now accessible on toolbar. Added
113 buddy text label to device port/channel combobox on the
114 device dialog.
115
116 * Include libgig version info on command line request (-v).
117
118 * Minor configure and Makefile install fixes, as Debian and
119 Mac OS X specialties. Also, install does the right thing
120 with target file modes (thanks to Matt Flax and Ebrahim
121 Mayat, for pointing these out).
122
123
124 0.1.0 2005-05-23 Device configuration breakthrough.
125
126 * Device configuration is now complete (EXPERIMENTAL).
127
128 * [bug #9] Fixed for a LSCP command syntax convention
129 consistency, regarding the enumeration of available
130 sampler engines, Audio and MIDI drivers.
131
132 * [bug #13] Update instrument names list when a new
133 instrument file is select on the channel setup dialog.
134
135 * Show appropriate message in channel strip while loading
136 an instrument.
137
138 * Show libgig version in About box (in case libgig is used).
139
140
141 0.0.5 2005-03-04 Fifth alpha-release.
142
143 * Fixed device driver type channel information gathering,
144 which was severely flawed, dropping all channel session
145 configurations to the default audio driver type (which
146 is ALSA) unexpectedly.
147
148 * Channels are now properly renumbered when saving to a
149 session LSCP script, assuming that it should be always
150 loaded from scratch (i.e. zero channels).
151
152 * Disabled MIDI port setting on channel dialog, and on
153 session file save, as its use is still troublesome.
154
155 * Added new menu and toolbar option: Reset All Channels.
156
157 * Channel setup changes are now properly filtered, as for
158 only those settings that are actually changed gets applied;
159 change information are now also posted to messages window.
160
161 * Drag-and-drop of either session files (LSCP scripts) or
162 instrument files (GIG) are now supported. Multiple files
163 drop is allowed, but it only makes sense for instrument
164 files, each one prompting to create a new sampler channel.
165
166 * Drag-and-drop to an existing channel strip is now also
167 featured, allowing the in-place change of the channel
168 sampler instrument file.
169
170 * Actual instrument names are now optionally retrieved
171 from the instrument file, even though libgig is available,
172 avoiding excessively annoying load times while on the
173 channel dialog, when huge instrument files are selected.
174
175 * Set to ignore the SIGPIPE ("Broken pipe") signal, where
176 available, as the default handler is usually fatal when
177 a JACK client is zombified abruptly.
178
179 * Messages window limit is now enforced only when the line
180 count exceeds in one third the user configured line count
181 maximum; if Qt 3.2.0+ is in use, the QTextView widget is
182 otherwise set to the optimized Qt::LogText format.
183
184
185 0.0.4 2004-11-19 Fourth alpha-release.
186
187 * Instrument index selection now made via combo box widget;
188 actual instrument names are now properly retrieved from
189 the instrument file, provided if libgig is available.
190
191 * Sampler channels strips are just created if, and only if,
192 the respective channel setup dialog is actually accepted,
193 following common user-interface guidelines.
194
195 * Almost complete rewrite of sampler channel strips internal
196 control structures.
197
198 * Sampler reset command action added to menu and toolbar.
199
200 * MIDI channel selection is now a dropdown list, allowing
201 the explicit selection for "All" channels input per sampler
202 channel (omni mode).
203
204 * Channel strip display glass effect has changed background
205 color to black (was green), being now an user option.
206
207 * Minor configure fixes.
208
209
210 0.0.3 2004-07-06 Third alpha-release.
211
212 * Mon-modal intrument file loading and status support.
213
214 * Effective MIDI input port setting on channel dialog,
215 and on session file save.
216
217 * Channel dialog gets sensible engine and driver defaults
218 on create time.
219
220 * Implied channel reset on successful instrument load.
221
222
223 0.0.2 2004-06-15 Pre-revolutionary release.
224
225 * The channel context menu is also accessible by right-clicking
226 over the empty workspace area.
227
228 * Added small wait event loop on qsamplerMainForm::stopServer(),
229 so let local server terminate gracefully and stabilize, and
230 avoiding a probable segfault on exit, which was preventing the
231 correct salvage of settings and configuration.
232
233 * Maximum channel volume percent setting is now a global option,
234 provided to override the default (which is 100%).
235
236 * Client/server transaction timeout option upper limit has been
237 increased from 5000 to 60000 milliseconds.
238
239 * A channel context menu is now featured, by right-clicking over
240 each sampler channel strip.
241
242 * Commented SET CHANNEL MIDI_INPUT_PORT command from
243 qsamplerMainForm::saveSessionFile(), it has no effect.
244
245 * Insert a n #include <unistd.h> on qsamplerMessages.cpp, between
246 a #if !defined(WIN32) clause.
247
248 * An initial non zero value (0.8) is now set for volume of every
249 new sampler channel strip.
250
251 * The order to load/save and setup channel settings is now as
252 suggested in the following lines:
253
254 SET CHANNEL AUDIO_OUTPUT_TYPE ...
255 SET CHANNEL MIDI_INPUT_TYPE ...
256 SET CHANNEL MIDI_INPUT_CHANNEL ...
257 LOAD ENGINE ...
258 LOAD INSTRUMENT ...
259 SET CHANNEL VOLUME ...
260
261
262 0.0.1 2004-06-05 Primordial alpha release.
