This is the first release which allows the sampler to be used as audio |
19 |
|
host plugin, namely supporting the standards VST, AU, DSSI and LV2. The |
20 |
|
sampler's limits for max. voices & disk streams can now be altered at |
21 |
|
runtime by frontends, no need to recompile the sampler anymore. The Mac |
22 |
|
version now also supports CoreAudio as audio driver. The Windows version |
23 |
|
finally supports the sampler's instruments DB feature as well, however |
24 |
|
expect it still to be unstable at this point. Along to the already |
25 |
|
existing JACK audio driver, Jack MIDI support has been added in this |
26 |
|
release. The sampler allows frontends now basic MIDI control, that is to |
27 |
|
monitor incoming MIDI data on MIDI input devices and sampler channels and |
28 |
|
to send note-on and note-off MIDI events to sampler channels, which |
29 |
|
allows frontends to provide a virtual MIDI keyboard to the user. Besides |
30 |
|
these major changes there were countless bugfixes and optimizations. |

On the finish line to the upcoming next release of LinuxSampler and |
34 |
|
friends, a beta pre-release for the Windows platform is now available |
35 |
|
from our |
36 |
|
<link ref="http://download.linuxsampler.org/dev/win/">download server</link>. |
37 |
|
This is the first Windows version which includes a VST plugin version |
38 |
|
of the sampler. The installer includes both, native 64 bit binaries and |
39 |
|
32 bit binaries. The installer detects the system type and installs the |
40 |
|
appropriate binaries automatically. |
