# 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        - fixed crash which occured on interfering File::DeleteSample() and
18          File::GetNextSample() calls (due to iterator invalidation)
19        - fixed group names which were not saved
20    
21      * src/RIFF.cpp, src/RIFF.h:
22        - fixed RIFF::Chunk destructor which did not unregister previously
23          resized chunks, leading to a "zero size chunk" exception when
24          File::Save() was called
25    
26    Version 3.1.0 (24 Nov 2006)
27    
28      * packaging changes:
29        - changed deprecated copyright attribute to license;
30          added ldconfig to post-(un)install steps on libgig.spec (RPM)
31    
32      * src/gig.cpp, src/gig.h:
33        - added support for more than one set of custom velocity splits
34          inside a region (for example different velocity split levels for
35          pedal up and pedal down)
36        - sample loop parameters are now taken from the DimensionRegion
37          instead of the wave chunk
38        - keyswitching dimension is changed from split type "normal" to
39          "bit"
40        - real support for 24 bit samples - samples are not truncated to
41          16 bits anymore
42        - support for reading of ".art" files. (Merging of .art and .gig
43          files are not implemented yet.)
44        - several fixes for the write support
45        - support for sample groups added
46    
47      * src/DLS.cpp, src/DLS.h:
48        - support for reading of ".art" files
49        - removed incorrect use of memccpy in the write support (patch by
50          Jeremy Kerr)
51        - several fixes for the write support
52    
53      * src/gigextract.cpp:
54        - real support for 24 bit samples
55    
56      * src/gigdump.cpp:
57        - print global file informations
58        - print sample groups
59    
60      * general changes:
61        - added CPPUnit test cases (at the moment primarily for automatic check
62          of Gigasampler write support)
63    
64    Version 3.0.0 (28 Apr 2006)
65    
66      * general changes:
67        - added write support (that is for creating and modifying RIFF, DLS and
68          gig files)
69        - loading DLS and gig files is now much more permissive, DLS and gig
70          files are now loaded even if mandatory RIFF chunks are missing
71        - fixed some memory management errors, one of them was causing a
72          crash when a multi-file gig was deallocated
73    
74      * src/gig.cpp, src/gig.h:
75        - fixed the GetVelocityCutoff function, it wasn't always using the
76          VCFVelocityScale parameter when no cutoff controller was defined
77        - support for the gig v3 feature to have a number of dimension
78          splits not equal to a power of two
79        - added write support (highly experimental)
80    
81      * src/DLS.cpp, src/DLS.h:
82        - fixed loading of Articulation Connections (<artl> list chunks were
83          seeked instead of ordinary <artl> data chunks)
84        - added write support (highly experimental)
85    
86      * src/RIFF.cpp, src/RIFF.h:
87        - added write support
88        - Chunk::LoadChunkData() can now be called again to resize the buffer
89          after a Chunk::Resize() and before the File::Save() call to allow
90          placing the new data in the chunk's write buffer and perform the
91          resize and write operations in one rush
92    
93      * src/gigdump.cpp:
94        - fixed to show the correct amount of dimension regions instead of 32
95          (patch by James Wylder)
96    
97      * src/dlsdump.cpp:
98        - show for every region the name of the referenced sample
99        - show file name in quotation marks
100    
101    Version 2.0.2 (15 Aug 2005)
102    
103      * packaging changes:
104        - require automake (>= 1.5) for 'make -f Makefile.cvs'
105          (mandatory for 'dist-bzip2' automake option)
106    
107      * src/gig.cpp, src/gig.h:
108        - support for gig v3 multi-file format (.gig, .gx01, .gx02, ...),
109          the extension files are read automatically when the samples are
110          loaded
111        - fixed the 24 bit decompression, the result should now be exact
112          instead of an approximation
113        - added VCFCutoffControllerInvert parameter and GetVelocityCutoff
114          function to DimensionRegion
115    
116      * src/DLS.cpp, src/DLS.h:
117        - the upper bits of the pool table indices are read (used as
118          extension file numbers for gig v3)
119    
120      * src/RIFF.cpp, src/RIFF.h:
121        - the file name is remembered in the RIFF::File object
122    
123    Version 2.0.1 (12 Jun 2005)
124    
125      * packaging changes:
126        - include debian/ directory on 'make dist'

143    
144      * src/gig.cpp, src/gig.h:
145        - experimental support for Gigasampler v3 format;
146          64 bit file offsets are truncated to 32 bit, 24 bit samples are
147          truncated to 16 bit, up to 8 dimensions are read, additional
148          articulation informations are ignored at the moment
149          (patch by Andreas Persson)
150        - added some file format compatibility checks
151        - fixed vcf_type_lowpassturbo value (vcf_type_lowpassturbo was actually
152          never used, because the necessary check was made before
153          initialization)
154        - fixed crossfade points order (structure for big endian and little
155          endian systems was interchanged)
156        - fixed some memory leaks (patch by 'Gene', a.k.a Anders Alm)

166        - added v3 "random" and "round robin" dimensions
167        - implemented progress indicator callback mechanism for loading
168          instruments and samples

170    
171      * src/DLS.cpp, src/DLS.h:

175    
176      * src/RIFF.cpp, src/RIFF.h:

178          position within the body of the given list chunk
179        - added functions libraryName() and libraryVersion()
180

198          used libgig version
199    
200    Version 1.0.0 (26 Nov 2004)
201    
202      * packaging changes:
203        - renamed 'libgig.pc.in' -> 'gig.pc.in' and renamed pkg-config lib name
204          'libgig' -> 'gig' as it's common practice to omit the 'lib' prefix
205        - fixed man pages automake install rule (which didn't work on Mandrake,
206          SuSE and Fedora)
207        - fixed generation of Doxygen API documentation (now also included in

209    
210      * src/gig.cpp, src/gig.h:
211        - fixed / improved accuracy of all three velocity to volume
212          transformation functions a.k.a. 'nonlinear','linear','special'
213          (patch by Andreas Persson)
214        - denormals are filtered from the velocity to volume tables
215        - bugfix for dimension region switching (wrong handling of the release
216          trigger dimension, no bit range check for dimensions of split type
217          'split_type_bit')
218        - fixed panorama value in DimensionRegion (invalid conversion from
219          signed 7 bit to signed 8 bit)
220        - added class attribute 'Layers' to class 'gig::Region'
221        - symbol prototyping of gig::Region (fixes build failure with qsampler)
222    
223      * src/gigextract.cpp:
224        - added support for libsndfile (if libaudiofile and libsndfile are
225          available then libsndfile is preferred)
226    
227      * src/gigdump.cpp:
228        - added printout for dimension informations (amount, type, bits, zones)
229        - added printout for velocity response curve parameters
230        - added printout for crossfade definitions
231        - added printout for panorama value for each DimensionRegion
232        - replaced printout of DLS Region layer by printout of amount of
233          Gigasampler layers
234    
235    Version 0.7.1 (2 Jul 2004)
236    
237      * packaging changes:
238        - added libgig.spec and libgig.pc package configurations for generating
239          Redhat packages
240        - header files included on installation.
241        - autotools-generated files removed from CVS repository.
242        - added support for generating Debian packages
243        - version of shared library can be set in configure.in
244    
245    Version 0.7.0 (3 May 2004)
246    
247      * general changes:
248        - various big endian specific corrections
249          (successfully tested now on PPC)
250        - minor adjustments to avoid compile errors on some systems
251          (using now pow() instead of powl() and --pedantic g++ compiler switch)
252        - libtoolized the library
253        - added man pages for the command line tools
254          (gigextract, gigdump, dlsdump, rifftree)
255    
256      * src/gig.cpp, src/gig.h:
257        - fixed bug in decompression algorithm which caused it not to detect
258          the end of a stream
259        - added method GetVelocityAttenuation() to class 'DimensionRegion' which
260          takes the MIDI key velocity value as an argument and returns the
261          appropriate volume factor (0.0 ... 1.0) for the sample to be played
262          back, the velocity curve transformation functions used for this are
263          only an approximation so far
264        - fixed class attributes 'Sample::LoopStart', 'Sample::LoopEnd' and
265          'Sample::LoopSize' which reflected wrong values
266        - class attributes 'Sample::LoopStart' and 'Sample::LoopEnd' are now
267          measured in sample points instead of byte offset
268        - renamed misleading attribute name 'Sample::MIDIPitchFraction' to
269          'Sample::FineTune'
270        - added class attribute 'Sample::LoopSize'
271        - added method GetInstrument(uint index) to class 'File'
272        - added ReadAndLoop() method to class 'Sample' which is an extension to
273          the normal Read() method to honor the sample's looping information
274          while streaming from disk
275        - changed interface for 'attenuation_ctrl_t', 'eg1_ctrl_t' and
276          'eg2_ctrl_t': replaced this huge enumeration by a structure which
277          reflects the MIDI controller number in case of an ordinary control
278          change controller (this saves a huge switch-case block in the
279          application of the library user)
280        - renamed following attributes in class 'DimensionRegion':
281          'AttenuationContol' -> 'AttenuationController',
282          'InvertAttenuationControl' -> 'InvertAttenuationController',
283          'AttenuationControlTreshold' -> 'AttenuationControllerThreshold'
284        - minor fix in API documentation for method GetVelocityAttenuation() in
285          class 'DimensionRegion'
286    
287      * src/RIFF.cpp, src/RIFF.h:
288        - added additional API documentation
289        - minor fix in Chunk::Read() method (only a minor efficiency issue)
290    
291      * src/gigdump.cpp:
292        - added printout of samples' looping informations
293    
294  Version 0.6.0 (3 Nov 2003)  Version 0.6.0 (3 Nov 2003)
