Version 1.2.0 (2021-05-09) |
2 |
|
|
3 |
|
This release provides various new features and as always of course also |
4 |
|
numerous fixes. |
5 |
|
|
6 |
|
A C++11 compliant compiler is now at least required to build Gigedit from |
7 |
|
source. |
8 |
|
|
9 |
|
The real-time instrument script editor supports now syntax highlighting for |
10 |
|
LinuxSampler's new standard measuring units (kHz, c, ms, dB, etc.) feature for |
11 |
|
the NKSP script language. On the right hand side of Gigedit (the main working |
12 |
|
area actually) there is now a new tab "Script" which reveals a list of so |
13 |
|
called NKSP "patch" variables, which are variables published by instrument |
14 |
|
script authors to be directly accessible from the instrument editor and allows |
15 |
|
to override the values of certain instrument script variables on a per |
16 |
|
instrument basis in order to fine tune certains aspects of a script for |
17 |
|
individual instruments. |
18 |
|
|
19 |
|
Latest LinuxSampler 2.2.0 added various gig format extensions which are now |
20 |
|
available on Gigedit side as well: for instance for LFOs you can select from |
21 |
|
multiple wave forms (sine, triangle, square and saw) and you can fine tune |
22 |
|
the start phase of each LFO. To make it more intuitive the resulting LFO wave |
23 |
|
is drawn as preview on screen according to the chosen LFO parameters. Another |
24 |
|
gig format extension by latest LinuxSampler are new filter types which can be |
25 |
|
chosen from (along to the already existing filter types which will continue to |
26 |
|
co-exist): lowpass 1/2/4/6-pole, highpass 1/2/4/6-pole, bandpass 2-pole and |
27 |
|
bandreject 2-pole. |
28 |
|
|
29 |
|
A new dialog has been added to access the meta info of individual samples, |
30 |
|
similar to the meta info dialog that already existed for individual |
31 |
|
instruments. |
32 |
|
|
33 |
|
Gain can now be set to any arbitary value between -96 dB .. +96 dB. Previously |
34 |
|
it was only possible to set gain to max. 0 dB and there was a checkbox which |
35 |
|
allowed a hard coded boost to exactly +6 dB. The previous appearance |
36 |
|
replicated the appearance of GigaStudio's original instrument editor. The |
37 |
|
previous limitation of having just a single possible value for positive gain |
38 |
|
was unfortunate, but as it turned out this was actually not a limitation of |
39 |
|
the original gig file format. And in fact we have not added any gig file |
40 |
|
format extension for this reason to achieve this new freedom of arbitrary gain |
41 |
|
settings. So setting a positive gain of e.g. let's say +1.45 dB does not break |
42 |
|
compatibility of your sounds with GigaStudio. |
43 |
|
|
44 |
|
And last but not least various minor convenience functions have been added, |
45 |
|
for instance the default double click behaviour on instruments (which would |
46 |
|
open their meta info dialog) can now optionally be disabled, window size, |
47 |
|
position and vertical spliter position are now auto saved and restored among |
48 |
|
Gigedit sessions and the up/down buttons' steps have been individually |
49 |
|
adjusted to make more sense for the individual synthesis parameters they |
50 |
|
control. And regarding the latter: remember that the up/down steppers do |
51 |
|
actually have two distinct operations per button: a regular left-mouse click |
52 |
|
for small changes and middle-mouse click for larger changes. Both have been |
53 |
|
adjusted appropriately for the individual synthesis parameters they control. |
