8 0.1.3 2006-06-01 Its been a long year isn't it?
9
10 * Changed deprecated copyright attribute to license,
11 on qsampler.spec (RPM).
12
13 * Added configure support for x86_64 libraries (UNTESTED).
14
15 * Optional specification of alternate liblscp and libgig
16 installation paths have been added to configure command
17 arguments (--with-liblscp, --with-libgig).
18
19 * Whenever the listing of actual instrument names is not an
20 option (e.g. due to lack of libgig support), the whole
21 number of selectable instrument items is now being graciously
22 increased from just the bare 8 (eight) right up through 100
23 (one hundred), on the sampler channel setup dialog.
24
25 * The selection buttons, on the right of the Instrument, Audio
26 and MIDI devices combo-boxes, on the sampler channel dialog,
27 are now expected to be a little better looking than it was
28 before, at least for those Mac OS X eyes.
29
30 * Minor fixing on the initial messages dock-window height.
31
32 * Audio output channel routing configuration finally hits
33 the sampler channel dialog, at last! (EXPERIMENTAL).
34
35 * All widget captions changed to include proper application
36 title name prefix.
37
38 * Attempt to bring those aging autoconf templates to date;
39 sample SPEC file for RPM build is now being included and
40 generated at configure time.
41
42 * Set to use QApplication::setMainWidget() instead of
43 registering the traditional lastWindowClosed() signal
44 to quit() slot, just to let the -geometry command line
45 argument have some effect on X11.
46
47 * Added MUTE/SOLO buttons to individual channel strips.
48
49 * Fixed compilation error which occured when Qt was
50 compiled with -no-stl.
51
52
53 0.1.2 2005-06-23 Even minor workings needs a rest.
54
55 * Fixed output disability when messages limit option is
56 turned off (thanks to Wolfgang Woehl for spotting this
57 one, while on qjackctl).
58
59 * Added CHANNEL_INFO event feedback notification handling;
60 minor stream/voice usage auto-refresh cycle optimization.
61
62
63 0.1.1 2005-06-12 The mantra of bugfixes.
64
65 * New improved and full-featured application icon, thanks
66 to Christian Schoenebeck design.
67
68 * Fixed refresh cycle of channel strips that are found
69 in an error state, which was preventing correct channel
70 info updates.
71
72 * Device configuration now accessible on toolbar. Added
73 buddy text label to device port/channel combobox on the
74 device dialog.
75
76 * Include libgig version info on command line request (-v).
77
78 * Minor configure and Makefile install fixes, as Debian and
79 Mac OS X specialties. Also, install does the right thing
80 with target file modes (thanks to Matt Flax and Ebrahim
81 Mayat, for pointing these out).
82
83
84 0.1.0 2005-05-23 Device configuration breakthrough.
85
86 * Device configuration is now complete (EXPERIMENTAL).
87
88 * [bug #9] Fixed for a LSCP command syntax convention
89 consistency, regarding the enumeration of available
90 sampler engines, Audio and MIDI drivers.
91
92 * [bug #13] Update instrument names list when a new
93 instrument file is select on the channel setup dialog.
94
95 * Show appropriate message in channel strip while loading
96 an instrument.
97
98 * Show libgig version in About box (in case libgig is used).
99
100
101 0.0.5 2005-03-04 Fifth alpha-release.
102
103 * Fixed device driver type channel information gathering,
104 which was severely flawed, dropping all channel session
105 configurations to the default audio driver type (which
106 is ALSA) unexpectedly.
107
108 * Channels are now properly renumbered when saving to a
109 session LSCP script, assuming that it should be always
110 loaded from scratch (i.e. zero channels).
111
112 * Disabled MIDI port setting on channel dialog, and on
113 session file save, as its use is still troublesome.
114
115 * Added new menu and toolbar option: Reset All Channels.
116
117 * Channel setup changes are now properly filtered, as for
118 only those settings that are actually changed gets applied;
119 change information are now also posted to messages window.
120
121 * Drag-and-drop of either session files (LSCP scripts) or
122 instrument files (GIG) are now supported. Multiple files
123 drop is allowed, but it only makes sense for instrument
124 files, each one prompting to create a new sampler channel.
125
126 * Drag-and-drop to an existing channel strip is now also
127 featured, allowing the in-place change of the channel
128 sampler instrument file.
129
130 * Actual instrument names are now optionally retrieved
131 from the instrument file, even though libgig is available,
132 avoiding excessively annoying load times while on the
133 channel dialog, when huge instrument files are selected.
134
135 * Set to ignore the SIGPIPE ("Broken pipe") signal, where
136 available, as the default handler is usually fatal when
137 a JACK client is zombified abruptly.
138
139 * Messages window limit is now enforced only when the line
140 count exceeds in one third the user configured line count
141 maximum; if Qt 3.2.0+ is in use, the QTextView widget is
142 otherwise set to the optimized Qt::LogText format.
143
144
145 0.0.4 2004-11-19 Fourth alpha-release.
146
147 * Instrument index selection now made via combo box widget;
148 actual instrument names are now properly retrieved from
149 the instrument file, provided if libgig is available.
150
151 * Sampler channels strips are just created if, and only if,
152 the respective channel setup dialog is actually accepted,
153 following common user-interface guidelines.
154
155 * Almost complete rewrite of sampler channel strips internal
156 control structures.
157
158 * Sampler reset command action added to menu and toolbar.
159
160 * MIDI channel selection is now a dropdown list, allowing
161 the explicit selection for "All" channels input per sampler
162 channel (omni mode).
163
164 * Channel strip display glass effect has changed background
165 color to black (was green), being now an user option.
166
167 * Minor configure fixes.
168
169
170 0.0.3 2004-07-06 Third alpha-release.
171
172 * Mon-modal intrument file loading and status support.
173
174 * Effective MIDI input port setting on channel dialog,
175 and on session file save.
176
177 * Channel dialog gets sensible engine and driver defaults
178 on create time.
179
180 * Implied channel reset on successful instrument load.
181
182
183 0.0.2 2004-06-15 Pre-revolutionary release.
184
185 * The channel context menu is also accessible by right-clicking
186 over the empty workspace area.
187
188 * Added small wait event loop on qsamplerMainForm::stopServer(),
189 so let local server terminate gracefully and stabilize, and
190 avoiding a probable segfault on exit, which was preventing the
191 correct salvage of settings and configuration.
192
193 * Maximum channel volume percent setting is now a global option,
194 provided to override the default (which is 100%).
195
196 * Client/server transaction timeout option upper limit has been
197 increased from 5000 to 60000 milliseconds.
198
199 * A channel context menu is now featured, by right-clicking over
200 each sampler channel strip.
201
202 * Commented SET CHANNEL MIDI_INPUT_PORT command from
203 qsamplerMainForm::saveSessionFile(), it has no effect.
204
205 * Insert a n #include <unistd.h> on qsamplerMessages.cpp, between
206 a #if !defined(WIN32) clause.
207
208 * An initial non zero value (0.8) is now set for volume of every
209 new sampler channel strip.
210
211 * The order to load/save and setup channel settings is now as
212 suggested in the following lines:
213
214 SET CHANNEL AUDIO_OUTPUT_TYPE ...
215 SET CHANNEL MIDI_INPUT_TYPE ...
216 SET CHANNEL MIDI_INPUT_CHANNEL ...
217 LOAD ENGINE ...
218 LOAD INSTRUMENT ...
219 SET CHANNEL VOLUME ...
220
221
222 0.0.1 2004-06-05 Primordial alpha release.
