# 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        - 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        - added new method File::DeleteGroupOnly() which only deletes the given
14          group but moves all its members to another group, the other method,
15          that is File::DeleteGroup() now removes not just the group, but also
16          all the samples that belong to that group
17    
18    Version 3.1.0 (24 Nov 2006)
19    
20      * packaging changes:
21        - changed deprecated copyright attribute to license;
22          added ldconfig to post-(un)install steps on libgig.spec (RPM)
23    
24      * src/gig.cpp, src/gig.h:
25        - added support for more than one set of custom velocity splits
26          inside a region (for example different velocity split levels for
27          pedal up and pedal down)
28        - sample loop parameters are now taken from the DimensionRegion
29          instead of the wave chunk
30        - keyswitching dimension is changed from split type "normal" to
31          "bit"
32        - real support for 24 bit samples - samples are not truncated to
33          16 bits anymore
34        - support for reading of ".art" files. (Merging of .art and .gig
35          files are not implemented yet.)
36        - several fixes for the write support
37        - support for sample groups added
38    
39      * src/DLS.cpp, src/DLS.h:
40        - support for reading of ".art" files
41        - removed incorrect use of memccpy in the write support (patch by
42          Jeremy Kerr)
43        - several fixes for the write support
44    
45      * src/gigextract.cpp:
46        - real support for 24 bit samples
47    
48      * src/gigdump.cpp:
49        - print global file informations
50        - print sample groups
51    
52      * general changes:
53        - added CPPUnit test cases (at the moment primarily for automatic check
54          of Gigasampler write support)
55    
56    Version 3.0.0 (28 Apr 2006)
57    
58      * general changes:
59        - added write support (that is for creating and modifying RIFF, DLS and
60          gig files)
61        - loading DLS and gig files is now much more permissive, DLS and gig
62          files are now loaded even if mandatory RIFF chunks are missing
63        - fixed some memory management errors, one of them was causing a
64          crash when a multi-file gig was deallocated
65    
66      * src/gig.cpp, src/gig.h:
67        - fixed the GetVelocityCutoff function, it wasn't always using the
68          VCFVelocityScale parameter when no cutoff controller was defined
69        - support for the gig v3 feature to have a number of dimension
70          splits not equal to a power of two
71        - added write support (highly experimental)
72    
73      * src/DLS.cpp, src/DLS.h:
74        - fixed loading of Articulation Connections (<artl> list chunks were
75          seeked instead of ordinary <artl> data chunks)
76        - added write support (highly experimental)
77    
78      * src/RIFF.cpp, src/RIFF.h:
79        - added write support
80        - Chunk::LoadChunkData() can now be called again to resize the buffer
81          after a Chunk::Resize() and before the File::Save() call to allow
82          placing the new data in the chunk's write buffer and perform the
83          resize and write operations in one rush
84    
85      * src/gigdump.cpp:
86        - fixed to show the correct amount of dimension regions instead of 32
87          (patch by James Wylder)
88    
89      * src/dlsdump.cpp:
90        - show for every region the name of the referenced sample
91        - show file name in quotation marks
92    
93    Version 2.0.2 (15 Aug 2005)
94    
95      * packaging changes:
96        - require automake (>= 1.5) for 'make -f Makefile.cvs'
97          (mandatory for 'dist-bzip2' automake option)
98    
99      * src/gig.cpp, src/gig.h:
100        - support for gig v3 multi-file format (.gig, .gx01, .gx02, ...),
101          the extension files are read automatically when the samples are
102          loaded
103        - fixed the 24 bit decompression, the result should now be exact
104          instead of an approximation
105        - added VCFCutoffControllerInvert parameter and GetVelocityCutoff
106          function to DimensionRegion
107    
108      * src/DLS.cpp, src/DLS.h:
109        - the upper bits of the pool table indices are read (used as
110          extension file numbers for gig v3)
111    
112      * src/RIFF.cpp, src/RIFF.h:
113        - the file name is remembered in the RIFF::File object
114    
115    Version 2.0.1 (12 Jun 2005)
116    
117      * packaging changes:
118        - include debian/ directory on 'make dist'
119        - create a bzip2 tarball on 'make dist'

130    
131      * packaging changes:

133          (if none of the two exist, configure script will abort)
134        - man pages are now auto generated with the correct libgig version
135    
136      * src/gig.cpp, src/gig.h:
137        - experimental support for Gigasampler v3 format;
138          64 bit file offsets are truncated to 32 bit, 24 bit samples are
139          truncated to 16 bit, up to 8 dimensions are read, additional
140          articulation informations are ignored at the moment
141          (patch by Andreas Persson)
142        - added some file format compatibility checks
143        - fixed vcf_type_lowpassturbo value (vcf_type_lowpassturbo was actually
144          never used, because the necessary check was made before
145          initialization)
146        - fixed crossfade points order (structure for big endian and little
147          endian systems was interchanged)
148        - fixed some memory leaks (patch by 'Gene', a.k.a Anders Alm)

157        - added pre-calculated sample attenuation parameter
158        - added v3 "random" and "round robin" dimensions
159        - implemented progress indicator callback mechanism for loading
160          instruments and samples
161        - added functions libraryName() and libraryVersion()
162    
163      * src/DLS.cpp, src/DLS.h:
164        - fixed File constructor which caused variable File::Instruments always
165          to be zero
166        - added functions libraryName() and libraryVersion()
167    
168      * src/RIFF.cpp, src/RIFF.h:

170          position within the body of the given list chunk
171        - added functions libraryName() and libraryVersion()
172    
173      * src/rifftree.cpp:

190          used libgig version
191    
192    Version 1.0.0 (26 Nov 2004)
193    
194      * packaging changes:
195        - renamed 'libgig.pc.in' -> 'gig.pc.in' and renamed pkg-config lib name
196          'libgig' -> 'gig' as it's common practice to omit the 'lib' prefix
197        - fixed man pages automake install rule (which didn't work on Mandrake,
198          SuSE and Fedora)
199        - fixed generation of Doxygen API documentation (now also included in

201    
202      * src/gig.cpp, src/gig.h:
203        - fixed / improved accuracy of all three velocity to volume
204          transformation functions a.k.a. 'nonlinear','linear','special'
205          (patch by Andreas Persson)
206        - denormals are filtered from the velocity to volume tables
207        - bugfix for dimension region switching (wrong handling of the release
208          trigger dimension, no bit range check for dimensions of split type
209          'split_type_bit')
210        - fixed panorama value in DimensionRegion (invalid conversion from
211          signed 7 bit to signed 8 bit)
212        - added class attribute 'Layers' to class 'gig::Region'
213        - symbol prototyping of gig::Region (fixes build failure with qsampler)
214    
215      * src/gigextract.cpp:
216        - added support for libsndfile (if libaudiofile and libsndfile are
217          available then libsndfile is preferred)
218    
219      * src/gigdump.cpp:
220        - added printout for dimension informations (amount, type, bits, zones)
221        - added printout for velocity response curve parameters
222        - added printout for crossfade definitions
223        - added printout for panorama value for each DimensionRegion
224        - replaced printout of DLS Region layer by printout of amount of

226    
227    Version 0.7.1 (2 Jul 2004)
228    
229      * packaging changes:
230        - added libgig.spec and libgig.pc package configurations for generating
231          Redhat packages
232        - header files included on installation.
233        - autotools-generated files removed from CVS repository.
234        - added support for generating Debian packages
235        - version of shared library can be set in configure.in
236    
237    Version 0.7.0 (3 May 2004)
238    
239      * general changes:
240        - various big endian specific corrections
241          (successfully tested now on PPC)
242        - minor adjustments to avoid compile errors on some systems
243          (using now pow() instead of powl() and --pedantic g++ compiler switch)
244        - libtoolized the library
245        - added man pages for the command line tools
246          (gigextract, gigdump, dlsdump, rifftree)
247    
248      * src/gig.cpp, src/gig.h:
249        - fixed bug in decompression algorithm which caused it not to detect
250          the end of a stream
251        - added method GetVelocityAttenuation() to class 'DimensionRegion' which
252          takes the MIDI key velocity value as an argument and returns the
253          appropriate volume factor (0.0 ... 1.0) for the sample to be played
254          back, the velocity curve transformation functions used for this are
255          only an approximation so far
256        - fixed class attributes 'Sample::LoopStart', 'Sample::LoopEnd' and
257          'Sample::LoopSize' which reflected wrong values
258        - class attributes 'Sample::LoopStart' and 'Sample::LoopEnd' are now
259          measured in sample points instead of byte offset
260        - renamed misleading attribute name 'Sample::MIDIPitchFraction' to
261          'Sample::FineTune'
262        - added class attribute 'Sample::LoopSize'
263        - added method GetInstrument(uint index) to class 'File'
264        - added ReadAndLoop() method to class 'Sample' which is an extension to
265          the normal Read() method to honor the sample's looping information
266          while streaming from disk
267        - changed interface for 'attenuation_ctrl_t', 'eg1_ctrl_t' and
268          'eg2_ctrl_t': replaced this huge enumeration by a structure which
269          reflects the MIDI controller number in case of an ordinary control
270          change controller (this saves a huge switch-case block in the
271          application of the library user)
272        - renamed following attributes in class 'DimensionRegion':
273          'AttenuationContol' -> 'AttenuationController',
274          'InvertAttenuationControl' -> 'InvertAttenuationController',
275          'AttenuationControlTreshold' -> 'AttenuationControllerThreshold'
276        - minor fix in API documentation for method GetVelocityAttenuation() in
277          class 'DimensionRegion'
278    
279      * src/RIFF.cpp, src/RIFF.h:
280        - added additional API documentation
281        - minor fix in Chunk::Read() method (only a minor efficiency issue)
282    
283      * src/gigdump.cpp:
284        - added printout of samples' looping informations
285    
286  Version 0.6.0 (3 Nov 2003)  Version 0.6.0 (3 Nov 2003)
