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

119    
120      * packaging changes:
121        - fixed conditional linkage of either libsndfile or libaudiofile
122          (if none of the two exist, configure script will abort)
123        - man pages are now auto generated with the correct libgig version
124    
125      * src/gig.cpp, src/gig.h:
126        - experimental support for Gigasampler v3 format;
127          64 bit file offsets are truncated to 32 bit, 24 bit samples are
128          truncated to 16 bit, up to 8 dimensions are read, additional
129          articulation informations are ignored at the moment
130          (patch by Andreas Persson)
131        - added some file format compatibility checks
132        - fixed vcf_type_lowpassturbo value (vcf_type_lowpassturbo was actually
133          never used, because the necessary check was made before
134          initialization)
135        - fixed crossfade points order (structure for big endian and little
136          endian systems was interchanged)
137        - fixed some memory leaks (patch by 'Gene', a.k.a Anders Alm)

146        - added pre-calculated sample attenuation parameter
147        - added v3 "random" and "round robin" dimensions
148        - implemented progress indicator callback mechanism for loading
149          instruments and samples
150        - added functions libraryName() and libraryVersion()
151    
152      * src/DLS.cpp, src/DLS.h:
153        - fixed File constructor which caused variable File::Instruments always
154          to be zero
155        - added functions libraryName() and libraryVersion()
156    
157      * src/RIFF.cpp, src/RIFF.h:

159          position within the body of the given list chunk
160        - added functions libraryName() and libraryVersion()
161    
162      * src/rifftree.cpp:

179          used libgig version
180    
181    Version 1.0.0 (26 Nov 2004)
182    
183      * packaging changes:
184        - renamed 'libgig.pc.in' -> 'gig.pc.in' and renamed pkg-config lib name
185          'libgig' -> 'gig' as it's common practice to omit the 'lib' prefix
186        - fixed man pages automake install rule (which didn't work on Mandrake,
187          SuSE and Fedora)
188        - fixed generation of Doxygen API documentation (now also included in

193          transformation functions a.k.a. 'nonlinear','linear','special'
194          (patch by Andreas Persson)
195        - denormals are filtered from the velocity to volume tables
196        - bugfix for dimension region switching (wrong handling of the release
197          trigger dimension, no bit range check for dimensions of split type
198          'split_type_bit')
199        - fixed panorama value in DimensionRegion (invalid conversion from
200          signed 7 bit to signed 8 bit)
201        - added class attribute 'Layers' to class 'gig::Region'
202        - symbol prototyping of gig::Region (fixes build failure with qsampler)
203    
204      * src/gigextract.cpp:
205        - added support for libsndfile (if libaudiofile and libsndfile are
206          available then libsndfile is preferred)
207    
208      * src/gigdump.cpp:
209        - added printout for dimension informations (amount, type, bits, zones)
210        - added printout for velocity response curve parameters
211        - added printout for crossfade definitions
212        - added printout for panorama value for each DimensionRegion
213        - replaced printout of DLS Region layer by printout of amount of

215    
216    Version 0.7.1 (2 Jul 2004)
217    
218      * packaging changes:
219        - added libgig.spec and libgig.pc package configurations for generating
220          Redhat packages
221        - header files included on installation.
222        - autotools-generated files removed from CVS repository.
223        - added support for generating Debian packages
224        - version of shared library can be set in configure.in
225    
226    Version 0.7.0 (3 May 2004)
227    
228      * general changes:
229        - various big endian specific corrections
230          (successfully tested now on PPC)
231        - minor adjustments to avoid compile errors on some systems
232          (using now pow() instead of powl() and --pedantic g++ compiler switch)
233        - libtoolized the library
234        - added man pages for the command line tools
235          (gigextract, gigdump, dlsdump, rifftree)
236    
237      * src/gig.cpp, src/gig.h:
238        - fixed bug in decompression algorithm which caused it not to detect
239          the end of a stream
240        - added method GetVelocityAttenuation() to class 'DimensionRegion' which
241          takes the MIDI key velocity value as an argument and returns the
242          appropriate volume factor (0.0 ... 1.0) for the sample to be played
243          back, the velocity curve transformation functions used for this are
244          only an approximation so far
245        - fixed class attributes 'Sample::LoopStart', 'Sample::LoopEnd' and
246          'Sample::LoopSize' which reflected wrong values
247        - class attributes 'Sample::LoopStart' and 'Sample::LoopEnd' are now
248          measured in sample points instead of byte offset
249        - renamed misleading attribute name 'Sample::MIDIPitchFraction' to
250          'Sample::FineTune'
251        - added class attribute 'Sample::LoopSize'
252        - added method GetInstrument(uint index) to class 'File'
253        - added ReadAndLoop() method to class 'Sample' which is an extension to
254          the normal Read() method to honor the sample's looping information
255          while streaming from disk
256        - changed interface for 'attenuation_ctrl_t', 'eg1_ctrl_t' and
257          'eg2_ctrl_t': replaced this huge enumeration by a structure which
258          reflects the MIDI controller number in case of an ordinary control
259          change controller (this saves a huge switch-case block in the
260          application of the library user)
261        - renamed following attributes in class 'DimensionRegion':
262          'AttenuationContol' -> 'AttenuationController',
263          'InvertAttenuationControl' -> 'InvertAttenuationController',
264          'AttenuationControlTreshold' -> 'AttenuationControllerThreshold'
265        - minor fix in API documentation for method GetVelocityAttenuation() in
266          class 'DimensionRegion'
267    
268      * src/RIFF.cpp, src/RIFF.h:
269        - added additional API documentation
270        - minor fix in Chunk::Read() method (only a minor efficiency issue)
271    
272      * src/gigdump.cpp:
273        - added printout of samples' looping informations
274    
275  Version 0.6.0 (3 Nov 2003)  Version 0.6.0 (3 Nov 2003)
