# Line 0  Line 1 
1    Version CVS HEAD (?)
2    
3      * packaging changes:
4        - ported to Windows using native Windows functions for file IO
5          (provided Dev-C++ + mingw project file)
6        - only export relevant files to Doxygen API documentation
7    
8      * src/gig.cpp, src/gig.h:
9        - custom velocity splits now works for gig v3 files too
10        - added support for custom splits points for other dimensions than
11          velocity (gig v3 feature)
12        - added "smart midi" and "round robin keyboard" dimensions
13    
14    Version 3.1.0 (24 Nov 2006)
15    
16      * packaging changes:
17        - changed deprecated copyright attribute to license;
18          added ldconfig to post-(un)install steps on libgig.spec (RPM)
19    
20      * src/gig.cpp, src/gig.h:
21        - added support for more than one set of custom velocity splits
22          inside a region (for example different velocity split levels for
23          pedal up and pedal down)
24        - sample loop parameters are now taken from the DimensionRegion
25          instead of the wave chunk
26        - keyswitching dimension is changed from split type "normal" to
27          "bit"
28        - real support for 24 bit samples - samples are not truncated to
29          16 bits anymore
30        - support for reading of ".art" files. (Merging of .art and .gig
31          files are not implemented yet.)
32        - several fixes for the write support
33        - support for sample groups added
34    
35      * src/DLS.cpp, src/DLS.h:
36        - support for reading of ".art" files
37        - removed incorrect use of memccpy in the write support (patch by
38          Jeremy Kerr)
39        - several fixes for the write support
40    
41      * src/gigextract.cpp:
42        - real support for 24 bit samples
43    
44      * src/gigdump.cpp:
45        - print global file informations
46        - print sample groups
47    
48      * general changes:
49        - added CPPUnit test cases (at the moment primarily for automatic check
50          of Gigasampler write support)
51    
52    Version 3.0.0 (28 Apr 2006)
53    
54      * general changes:
55        - added write support (that is for creating and modifying RIFF, DLS and
56          gig files)
57        - loading DLS and gig files is now much more permissive, DLS and gig
58          files are now loaded even if mandatory RIFF chunks are missing
59        - fixed some memory management errors, one of them was causing a
60          crash when a multi-file gig was deallocated
61    
62      * src/gig.cpp, src/gig.h:
63        - fixed the GetVelocityCutoff function, it wasn't always using the
64          VCFVelocityScale parameter when no cutoff controller was defined
65        - support for the gig v3 feature to have a number of dimension
66          splits not equal to a power of two
67        - added write support (highly experimental)
68    
69      * src/DLS.cpp, src/DLS.h:
70        - fixed loading of Articulation Connections (<artl> list chunks were
71          seeked instead of ordinary <artl> data chunks)
72        - added write support (highly experimental)
73    
74      * src/RIFF.cpp, src/RIFF.h:
75        - added write support
76        - Chunk::LoadChunkData() can now be called again to resize the buffer
77          after a Chunk::Resize() and before the File::Save() call to allow
78          placing the new data in the chunk's write buffer and perform the
79          resize and write operations in one rush
80    
81      * src/gigdump.cpp:
82        - fixed to show the correct amount of dimension regions instead of 32
83          (patch by James Wylder)
84    
85      * src/dlsdump.cpp:
86        - show for every region the name of the referenced sample
87        - show file name in quotation marks
88    
89    Version 2.0.2 (15 Aug 2005)
90    
91      * packaging changes:
92        - require automake (>= 1.5) for 'make -f Makefile.cvs'
93          (mandatory for 'dist-bzip2' automake option)
94    
95      * src/gig.cpp, src/gig.h:
96        - support for gig v3 multi-file format (.gig, .gx01, .gx02, ...),
97          the extension files are read automatically when the samples are
98          loaded
99        - fixed the 24 bit decompression, the result should now be exact
100          instead of an approximation
101        - added VCFCutoffControllerInvert parameter and GetVelocityCutoff
102          function to DimensionRegion
103    
104      * src/DLS.cpp, src/DLS.h:
105        - the upper bits of the pool table indices are read (used as
106          extension file numbers for gig v3)
107    
108      * src/RIFF.cpp, src/RIFF.h:
109        - the file name is remembered in the RIFF::File object
110    
111    Version 2.0.1 (12 Jun 2005)
112    
113      * packaging changes:
114        - include debian/ directory on 'make dist'
115        - create a bzip2 tarball on 'make dist'

126    
127      * packaging changes:
128        - fixed conditional linkage of either libsndfile or libaudiofile
129          (if none of the two exist, configure script will abort)
130        - man pages are now auto generated with the correct libgig version
131    
132      * src/gig.cpp, src/gig.h:
133        - experimental support for Gigasampler v3 format;
134          64 bit file offsets are truncated to 32 bit, 24 bit samples are
135          truncated to 16 bit, up to 8 dimensions are read, additional
136          articulation informations are ignored at the moment
137          (patch by Andreas Persson)
138        - added some file format compatibility checks
139        - fixed vcf_type_lowpassturbo value (vcf_type_lowpassturbo was actually
140          never used, because the necessary check was made before
141          initialization)
142        - fixed crossfade points order (structure for big endian and little
143          endian systems was interchanged)
144        - fixed some memory leaks (patch by 'Gene', a.k.a Anders Alm)
145        - fixed crash which occured when patches did not have a sample assigned
146          to their region or dimension region (patch by Andreas Persson)
147        - support for compressed mono samples
148        - experimental support for compressed 24 bit samples
149        - fixed decompression on big-endian CPUs

152          to avoid race conditions in case of multiple streaming threads
153        - added pre-calculated sample attenuation parameter
154        - added v3 "random" and "round robin" dimensions
155        - implemented progress indicator callback mechanism for loading
156          instruments and samples
157        - added functions libraryName() and libraryVersion()
158    
159      * src/DLS.cpp, src/DLS.h:
160        - fixed File constructor which caused variable File::Instruments always
161          to be zero
162        - added functions libraryName() and libraryVersion()
163    
164      * src/RIFF.cpp, src/RIFF.h:

166          position within the body of the given list chunk
167        - added functions libraryName() and libraryVersion()
168    
169      * src/rifftree.cpp:
170        - added command line switch -v to show rifftree's revision and the used
171          libgig version
172

186          used libgig version
187    
188    Version 1.0.0 (26 Nov 2004)
189    
190      * packaging changes:
191        - renamed 'libgig.pc.in' -> 'gig.pc.in' and renamed pkg-config lib name
192          'libgig' -> 'gig' as it's common practice to omit the 'lib' prefix
193        - fixed man pages automake install rule (which didn't work on Mandrake,
194          SuSE and Fedora)
195        - fixed generation of Doxygen API documentation (now also included in
196          RPM and Debian packages)
197    
198      * src/gig.cpp, src/gig.h:
199        - fixed / improved accuracy of all three velocity to volume
200          transformation functions a.k.a. 'nonlinear','linear','special'
201          (patch by Andreas Persson)
202        - denormals are filtered from the velocity to volume tables
203        - bugfix for dimension region switching (wrong handling of the release
204          trigger dimension, no bit range check for dimensions of split type
205          'split_type_bit')
206        - fixed panorama value in DimensionRegion (invalid conversion from
207          signed 7 bit to signed 8 bit)
208        - added class attribute 'Layers' to class 'gig::Region'
209        - symbol prototyping of gig::Region (fixes build failure with qsampler)
210    
211      * src/gigextract.cpp:
212        - added support for libsndfile (if libaudiofile and libsndfile are
213          available then libsndfile is preferred)
214    
215      * src/gigdump.cpp:
216        - added printout for dimension informations (amount, type, bits, zones)
217        - added printout for velocity response curve parameters
218        - added printout for crossfade definitions
219        - added printout for panorama value for each DimensionRegion
220        - replaced printout of DLS Region layer by printout of amount of
221          Gigasampler layers
222    
223    Version 0.7.1 (2 Jul 2004)
224    
225      * packaging changes:
226        - added libgig.spec and libgig.pc package configurations for generating
227          Redhat packages
228        - header files included on installation.
229        - autotools-generated files removed from CVS repository.
230        - added support for generating Debian packages
231        - version of shared library can be set in configure.in
232    
233    Version 0.7.0 (3 May 2004)
234    
235      * general changes:
236        - various big endian specific corrections
237          (successfully tested now on PPC)
238        - minor adjustments to avoid compile errors on some systems
239          (using now pow() instead of powl() and --pedantic g++ compiler switch)
240        - libtoolized the library
241        - added man pages for the command line tools
242          (gigextract, gigdump, dlsdump, rifftree)
243    
244      * src/gig.cpp, src/gig.h:
245        - fixed bug in decompression algorithm which caused it not to detect
246          the end of a stream
247        - added method GetVelocityAttenuation() to class 'DimensionRegion' which
248          takes the MIDI key velocity value as an argument and returns the
249          appropriate volume factor (0.0 ... 1.0) for the sample to be played
250          back, the velocity curve transformation functions used for this are
251          only an approximation so far
252        - fixed class attributes 'Sample::LoopStart', 'Sample::LoopEnd' and
253          'Sample::LoopSize' which reflected wrong values
254        - class attributes 'Sample::LoopStart' and 'Sample::LoopEnd' are now
255          measured in sample points instead of byte offset
256        - renamed misleading attribute name 'Sample::MIDIPitchFraction' to
257          'Sample::FineTune'
258        - added class attribute 'Sample::LoopSize'
259        - added method GetInstrument(uint index) to class 'File'
260        - added ReadAndLoop() method to class 'Sample' which is an extension to
261          the normal Read() method to honor the sample's looping information
262          while streaming from disk
263        - changed interface for 'attenuation_ctrl_t', 'eg1_ctrl_t' and
264          'eg2_ctrl_t': replaced this huge enumeration by a structure which
265          reflects the MIDI controller number in case of an ordinary control
266          change controller (this saves a huge switch-case block in the
267          application of the library user)
268        - renamed following attributes in class 'DimensionRegion':
269          'AttenuationContol' -> 'AttenuationController',
270          'InvertAttenuationControl' -> 'InvertAttenuationController',
271          'AttenuationControlTreshold' -> 'AttenuationControllerThreshold'
272        - minor fix in API documentation for method GetVelocityAttenuation() in
273          class 'DimensionRegion'
274    
275      * src/RIFF.cpp, src/RIFF.h:
276        - added additional API documentation
277        - minor fix in Chunk::Read() method (only a minor efficiency issue)
278    
279      * src/gigdump.cpp:
280        - added printout of samples' looping informations
281    
282    Version 0.6.0 (3 Nov 2003)
283    
284      * initial release
