7        <link ref="http://bb.linuxsampler.org">Web Forum</link> as well as our
8        <link ref="http://bugs.linuxsampler.org">Bug Tracker</link> were partly
9        unavailable for quite a while. It was possible to read them, but especially
10        registration of new user accounts were disabled (i.e. due to numerous
11        spam bot attacks we suffered in the past). Those issues have been
12        resolved and so both sites are back available and should now work entirely
13        as expected.

29        The Mac installer was broken on latest OS X 10.10 Yosemite. This had been
30        fixed today. Get the latest
31        <link ref="http://download.linuxsampler.org/packages/osx/snapshots/">snapshot for Mac</link>
32        with Yosemite support now.

36        A new documentation site has been launched:
37        <link ref="http://doc.linuxsampler.org">http://doc.linuxsampler.org</link> -
38        This separate page dedicated to manuals, tutorials and other kind of
39        articles for the LinuxSampler project, is using a new solution to write
40        and maintain such articles with a minimum of effort. Be invited to help us
41        <link ref="http://doc.linuxsampler.org/Writing_Docs/">writing documentation</link>
42        for LinuxSampler and friends! As one of the first topics, this site is now
43        hosting an introduction to the new
44        <link ref="http://doc.linuxsampler.org/Instrument_Scripts/NKSP_Language/">NKSP Real-Time Instrument Script Language</link>.
45        The long-term plan is to move all documentation of this project from our www
46        server to that new site.

50        For the Mac users out there: We finally have a convenient installer for the
51        OS X version of LinuxSampler. This is already integrated in our automatic
52        build system. So from now on all
53        <link ref="http://download.linuxsampler.org/packages/osx/snapshots/">daily snapshot builds for Mac</link>
54        are automatically built with an installer. By default the installer will
55        install all components (LinuxSampler stand-alone application, VST and
56        Audio Unit plugin version of LinuxSampler, QSampler, Fantasia, GigEdit and
57        command line tools. At step "Installation Type" you can however also
58        override the default installation and select which components to install.

62        <link ref="http://download.linuxsampler.org/packages/osx/snapshots/">gigedit finally included with OS X snapshots!</link>
63        Due to the variety of third party library dependencies it took a while, but
64        finally "gigedit", our graphical instrument editor for Gigasampler /
65        GigaStudio files, is now included with the automatic binary snapshots builds
66        for Mac OS X. The automatic snapshot installers are automatically compiled
67        by one of our servers each time a developer commits something new to our
68        Subversion (development) server. You can use gigedit on Mac OS X as
69        stand-alone instrument editor as well as in live-mode while running
70        LinuxSampler. In the latter case your changes with gigedit get immediately
71        audible while playing the instrument on the keyboard at the same time.

75        <link ref="sfz/">Added SFZ implementation status page.</link>
76        We are currently in the works to implement support for the SFZ format,
77        which is a powerful and open sample library format, already adopted by
78        many commercial samplers. Check our new SFZ status page to see which
79        aspects of the format are already supported by LinuxSampler, and which
80        ones are yet to be implemented.

84        <link ref="http://download.linuxsampler.org/packages/osx/snapshots/">Download the latest OS X snapshot of the sampler!</link>
85        Following our ongoing sympathy for automatic snapshots, we finally provide
86        automatic builds also for Apple OS X! As soon as some developer commits
87        something new to our Subversion server, a new binary snapshot for OS X will
88        automatically be available for download from our webserver within minutes.
89        The snapshot tbz2 archive file contains universal binaries
90        (PPC 32 bit, Intel 32 &amp; 64 bit) of the stand-alone version of the
91        sampler, VST and AU plugin version, and the graphical frontend applications
92        QSampler and Fantasia. Only our graphical instrument editor gigedit is not
93        yet part of the snapshots, it might follow at a later point. Please read
94        the README file in the tbz2 archive file for instructions how to install
95        everything on your Mac.

99        From now on, our source code is managed by a Subversion server. We
100        converted our existing CVS repository for the
101        <link ref="http://svn.linuxsampler.org">new Subversion server</link>, so
102        the complete history from the beginning of this project is also
103        available in this new Subversion repository. Our
104        <link ref="http://cvs.linuxsampler.org">old CVS server, along with its web frontend</link>
105        is still available, however is now in read only mode, so no changes can be
106        commited to CVS anymore. On the downloads page you can find
107        <link ref="http://www.linuxsampler.org/downloads.html#svn">instructions how
108        to download ("checkout") source code from our Subversion server.</link>

112        After a huge down time of almost one month, we decided to move to new, more
113        reliable servers. Thanks to the University of Heilbronn which kindly hosted
114        our servers for 8 years. We started to move the most important services to
115        a commercial server host, which will be financed by your donations. Sorry
116        for this long absence and thank you for your support!

120        <link ref="http://download.linuxsampler.org/packages/win32/snapshots/">Download the latest Windows snapshot of the sampler!</link>
121        Since we have to confess that we are a bit lazy about putting out official
122        releases, and since the latest official release of the sampler for Windows
123        is quite old, we decided to establish automatic builts of the sampler and
124        all other software components for Windows. As soon as some developer
125        commits something new to the CVS server for any of the project's software
126        components, a new snapshot binary for Windows will automatically built and
127        be available for download within few minutes. Sorry for neglecting you
128        Windows users out there for so long!

132        In case you are working a lot on Native Instruments Kontakt instrument
133        files, or if you are just interested in the .nki file format, you might have
134        a look at <link ref="nkitool/">nkitool</link>. It is a simple console
135        application which allows to export and import the human readable XML file
136        from and to Native Instruments Kontakt .nki instrument articulation files.
137        It can be very handy to speedup or even automate the process of creating
138        and editing .nki instrument files.
