8 * Optional specification of alternate liblscp and libgig
9 installation paths have been added to configure command
10 arguments (--with-liblscp, --with-libgig).
11
12 * Whenever the listing of actual instrument names is not an
13 option (e.g. due to lack of libgig support), the whole
14 number of selectable instrument items is now being graciously
15 increased from just the bare 8 (eight) right up through 100
16 (one hundred), on the sampler channel setup dialog.
17
18 * The selection buttons, on the right of the Instrument, Audio
19 and MIDI devices combo-boxes, on the sampler channel dialog,
20 are now expected to be a little better looking than it was
21 before, at least for those Mac OS X eyes.
22
23 * Minor fixing on the initial messages dock-window height.
24
25 * Audio output channel routing configuration finally hits
26 the sampler channel dialog, at last! (EXPERIMENTAL).
27
28 * All widget captions changed to include proper application
29 title name prefix.
30
31 * Attempt to bring those aging autoconf templates to date;
32 sample SPEC file for RPM build is now being included and
33 generated at configure time.
34
35 * Set to use QApplication::setMainWidget() instead of
36 registering the traditional lastWindowClosed() signal
37 to quit() slot, just to let the -geometry command line
38 argument have some effect on X11.
39
40 * Added MUTE/SOLO buttons to individual channel strips.
41
42 * Fixed compilation error which occured when Qt was
43 compiled with -no-stl.
44
45
46 0.1.2 2005-06-23 Even minor workings needs a rest.
47
48 * Fixed output disability when messages limit option is
49 turned off (thanks to Wolfgang Woehl for spotting this
50 one, while on qjackctl).
51
52 * Added CHANNEL_INFO event feedback notification handling;
53 minor stream/voice usage auto-refresh cycle optimization.
54
55
56 0.1.1 2005-06-12 The mantra of bugfixes.
57
58 * New improved and full-featured application icon, thanks
59 to Christian Schoenebeck design.
60
61 * Fixed refresh cycle of channel strips that are found
62 in an error state, which was preventing correct channel
63 info updates.
64
65 * Device configuration now accessible on toolbar. Added
66 buddy text label to device port/channel combobox on the
67 device dialog.
68
69 * Include libgig version info on command line request (-v).
70
71 * Minor configure and Makefile install fixes, as Debian and
72 Mac OS X specialties. Also, install does the right thing
73 with target file modes (thanks to Matt Flax and Ebrahim
74 Mayat, for pointing these out).
75
76
77 0.1.0 2005-05-23 Device configuration breakthrough.
78
79 * Device configuration is now complete (EXPERIMENTAL).
80
81 * [bug #9] Fixed for a LSCP command syntax convention
82 consistency, regarding the enumeration of available
83 sampler engines, Audio and MIDI drivers.
84
85 * [bug #13] Update instrument names list when a new
86 instrument file is select on the channel setup dialog.
87
88 * Show appropriate message in channel strip while loading
89 an instrument.
90
91 * Show libgig version in About box (in case libgig is used).
92
93
94 0.0.5 2005-03-04 Fifth alpha-release.
95
96 * Fixed device driver type channel information gathering,
97 which was severely flawed, dropping all channel session
98 configurations to the default audio driver type (which
99 is ALSA) unexpectedly.
100
101 * Channels are now properly renumbered when saving to a
102 session LSCP script, assuming that it should be always
103 loaded from scratch (i.e. zero channels).
104
105 * Disabled MIDI port setting on channel dialog, and on
106 session file save, as its use is still troublesome.
107
108 * Added new menu and toolbar option: Reset All Channels.
109
110 * Channel setup changes are now properly filtered, as for
111 only those settings that are actually changed gets applied;
112 change information are now also posted to messages window.
113
114 * Drag-and-drop of either session files (LSCP scripts) or
115 instrument files (GIG) are now supported. Multiple files
116 drop is allowed, but it only makes sense for instrument
117 files, each one prompting to create a new sampler channel.
118
119 * Drag-and-drop to an existing channel strip is now also
120 featured, allowing the in-place change of the channel
121 sampler instrument file.
122
123 * Actual instrument names are now optionally retrieved
124 from the instrument file, even though libgig is available,
125 avoiding excessively annoying load times while on the
126 channel dialog, when huge instrument files are selected.
127
128 * Set to ignore the SIGPIPE ("Broken pipe") signal, where
129 available, as the default handler is usually fatal when
130 a JACK client is zombified abruptly.
131
132 * Messages window limit is now enforced only when the line
133 count exceeds in one third the user configured line count
134 maximum; if Qt 3.2.0+ is in use, the QTextView widget is
135 otherwise set to the optimized Qt::LogText format.
136
137
138 0.0.4 2004-11-19 Fourth alpha-release.
139
140 * Instrument index selection now made via combo box widget;
141 actual instrument names are now properly retrieved from
142 the instrument file, provided if libgig is available.
143
144 * Sampler channels strips are just created if, and only if,
145 the respective channel setup dialog is actually accepted,
146 following common user-interface guidelines.
147
148 * Almost complete rewrite of sampler channel strips internal
149 control structures.
150
151 * Sampler reset command action added to menu and toolbar.
152
153 * MIDI channel selection is now a dropdown list, allowing
154 the explicit selection for "All" channels input per sampler
155 channel (omni mode).
156
157 * Channel strip display glass effect has changed background
158 color to black (was green), being now an user option.
159
160 * Minor configure fixes.
161
162
163 0.0.3 2004-07-06 Third alpha-release.
164
165 * Mon-modal intrument file loading and status support.
166
167 * Effective MIDI input port setting on channel dialog,
168 and on session file save.
169
170 * Channel dialog gets sensible engine and driver defaults
171 on create time.
172
173 * Implied channel reset on successful instrument load.
174
175
176 0.0.2 2004-06-15 Pre-revolutionary release.
177
178 * The channel context menu is also accessible by right-clicking
179 over the empty workspace area.
180
181 * Added small wait event loop on qsamplerMainForm::stopServer(),
182 so let local server terminate gracefully and stabilize, and
183 avoiding a probable segfault on exit, which was preventing the
184 correct salvage of settings and configuration.
185
186 * Maximum channel volume percent setting is now a global option,
187 provided to override the default (which is 100%).
188
189 * Client/server transaction timeout option upper limit has been
190 increased from 5000 to 60000 milliseconds.
191
192 * A channel context menu is now featured, by right-clicking over
193 each sampler channel strip.
194
195 * Commented SET CHANNEL MIDI_INPUT_PORT command from
196 qsamplerMainForm::saveSessionFile(), it has no effect.
197
198 * Insert a n #include <unistd.h> on qsamplerMessages.cpp, between
199 a #if !defined(WIN32) clause.
200
201 * An initial non zero value (0.8) is now set for volume of every
202 new sampler channel strip.
203
204 * The order to load/save and setup channel settings is now as
205 suggested in the following lines:
206
207 SET CHANNEL AUDIO_OUTPUT_TYPE ...
208 SET CHANNEL MIDI_INPUT_TYPE ...
209 SET CHANNEL MIDI_INPUT_CHANNEL ...
210 LOAD ENGINE ...
211 LOAD INSTRUMENT ...
212 SET CHANNEL VOLUME ...
213
214
215 0.0.1 2004-06-05 Primordial alpha release.
