# Line 1  Line 1 
1    Version CVS HEAD (?)
2    
3      * general changes:
4        - added write support (that is for creating and modifying RIFF, DLS and
5          gig files)
6        - loading DLS and gig files is now much more permissive, DLS and gig
7          files are now loaded even if mandatory RIFF chunks are missing
8        - fixed some memory management errors, one of them was causing a
9          crash when a multi-file gig was deallocated
10    
11      * src/gig.cpp, src/gig.h:
12        - fixed the GetVelocityCutoff function, it wasn't always using the
13          VCFVelocityScale parameter when no cutoff controller was defined
14        - support for the gig v3 feature to have a number of dimension
15          splits not equal to a power of two
16        - added write support (highly experimental)
17    
18      * src/DLS.cpp, src/DLS.h:
19        - fixed loading of Articulation Connections (<artl> list chunks were
20          seeked instead of ordinary <artl> data chunks)
21        - added write support (highly experimental)
22    
23      * src/RIFF.cpp, src/RIFF.h:
24        - added write support
25        - Chunk::LoadChunkData() can now be called again to resize the buffer
26          after a Chunk::Resize() and before the File::Save() call to allow
27          placing the new data in the chunk's write buffer and perform the
28          resize and write operations in one rush
29    
30      * src/gigdump.cpp:
31        - fixed to show the correct amount of dimension regions instead of 32
32          (patch by James Wylder)
33    
34      * src/dlsdump.cpp:
35        - show for every region the name of the referenced sample
36        - show file name in quotation marks
37    
38    Version 2.0.2 (15 Aug 2005)
39    
40      * packaging changes:
41        - require automake (>= 1.5) for 'make -f Makefile.cvs'
42          (mandatory for 'dist-bzip2' automake option)
43    
44      * src/gig.cpp, src/gig.h:
45        - support for gig v3 multi-file format (.gig, .gx01, .gx02, ...),
46          the extension files are read automatically when the samples are
47          loaded
48        - fixed the 24 bit decompression, the result should now be exact
49          instead of an approximation
50        - added VCFCutoffControllerInvert parameter and GetVelocityCutoff
51          function to DimensionRegion
52    
53      * src/DLS.cpp, src/DLS.h:
54        - the upper bits of the pool table indices are read (used as
55          extension file numbers for gig v3)
56    
57      * src/RIFF.cpp, src/RIFF.h:
58        - the file name is remembered in the RIFF::File object
59    
60    Version 2.0.1 (12 Jun 2005)
61    
62      * packaging changes:
63        - include debian/ directory on 'make dist'
64        - create a bzip2 tarball on 'make dist'
65    
66      * src/gigextract.cpp:
67        - show also version of libsndfile or build version of libaudiofile when
68          using the -v switch
69        - fixed mutual link dependency to libsndfile / libaudiofile
70    
71      * src/gig.cpp, src/gig.h:
72        - added DimensionRegion::GetVelocityRelease function
73    
74    Version 2.0.0 (9 May 2005)
75    
76      * packaging changes:
77        - fixed conditional linkage of either libsndfile or libaudiofile
78          (if none of the two exist, configure script will abort)
79        - man pages are now auto generated with the correct libgig version
80    
81      * src/gig.cpp, src/gig.h:
82        - experimental support for Gigasampler v3 format;
83          64 bit file offsets are truncated to 32 bit, 24 bit samples are
84          truncated to 16 bit, up to 8 dimensions are read, additional
85          articulation informations are ignored at the moment
86          (patch by Andreas Persson)
87        - added some file format compatibility checks
88        - fixed vcf_type_lowpassturbo value (vcf_type_lowpassturbo was actually
89          never used, because the necessary check was made before
90          initialization)
91        - fixed crossfade points order (structure for big endian and little
92          endian systems was interchanged)
93        - fixed some memory leaks (patch by 'Gene', a.k.a Anders Alm)
94        - fixed crash which occured when patches did not have a sample assigned
95          to their region or dimension region (patch by Andreas Persson)
96        - support for compressed mono samples
97        - experimental support for compressed 24 bit samples
98        - fixed decompression on big-endian CPUs
99        - fixed decompression bug that truncated the last block of samples
100        - external decompression buffers can now be used for streaming samples
101          to avoid race conditions in case of multiple streaming threads
102        - added pre-calculated sample attenuation parameter
103        - added v3 "random" and "round robin" dimensions
104        - implemented progress indicator callback mechanism for loading
105          instruments and samples
106        - added functions libraryName() and libraryVersion()
107    
108      * src/DLS.cpp, src/DLS.h:
109        - fixed File constructor which caused variable File::Instruments always
110          to be zero
111        - added functions libraryName() and libraryVersion()
112    
113      * src/RIFF.cpp, src/RIFF.h:
114        - fixed method List::LoadSubChunks() which did not restore the original
115          position within the body of the given list chunk
116        - added functions libraryName() and libraryVersion()
117    
118      * src/rifftree.cpp:
119        - added command line switch -v to show rifftree's revision and the used
120          libgig version
121

135          used libgig version
136    
137    Version 1.0.0 (26 Nov 2004)
138    
139      * packaging changes:
140        - renamed 'libgig.pc.in' -> 'gig.pc.in' and renamed pkg-config lib name
141          'libgig' -> 'gig' as it's common practice to omit the 'lib' prefix
142        - fixed man pages automake install rule (which didn't work on Mandrake,
143          SuSE and Fedora)
144        - fixed generation of Doxygen API documentation (now also included in

146    
147      * src/gig.cpp, src/gig.h:
148        - fixed / improved accuracy of all three velocity to volume
149          transformation functions a.k.a. 'nonlinear','linear','special'
150          (patch by Andreas Persson)
151        - denormals are filtered from the velocity to volume tables
152        - bugfix for dimension region switching (wrong handling of the release
153          trigger dimension, no bit range check for dimensions of split type
154          'split_type_bit')
155        - fixed panorama value in DimensionRegion (invalid conversion from
156          signed 7 bit to signed 8 bit)
157        - added class attribute 'Layers' to class 'gig::Region'
158        - symbol prototyping of gig::Region (fixes build failure with qsampler)
159    
160      * src/gigextract.cpp:
161        - added support for libsndfile (if libaudiofile and libsndfile are
162          available then libsndfile is preferred)
163    
164      * src/gigdump.cpp:
165        - added printout for dimension informations (amount, type, bits, zones)
166        - added printout for velocity response curve parameters
167        - added printout for crossfade definitions
168        - added printout for panorama value for each DimensionRegion
169        - replaced printout of DLS Region layer by printout of amount of
170          Gigasampler layers
171    
172    Version 0.7.1 (2 Jul 2004)
173    
174      * packaging changes:
175        - added libgig.spec and libgig.pc package configurations for generating
176          Redhat packages
177        - header files included on installation.
178        - autotools-generated files removed from CVS repository.
179        - added support for generating Debian packages
180        - version of shared library can be set in configure.in
181    
182    Version 0.7.0 (3 May 2004)
183    
184      * general changes:
185        - various big endian specific corrections
186          (successfully tested now on PPC)
187        - minor adjustments to avoid compile errors on some systems
188          (using now pow() instead of powl() and --pedantic g++ compiler switch)
189        - libtoolized the library
190        - added man pages for the command line tools
191          (gigextract, gigdump, dlsdump, rifftree)
192    
193      * src/gig.cpp, src/gig.h:
194        - fixed bug in decompression algorithm which caused it not to detect
195          the end of a stream
196        - added method GetVelocityAttenuation() to class 'DimensionRegion' which
197          takes the MIDI key velocity value as an argument and returns the
198          appropriate volume factor (0.0 ... 1.0) for the sample to be played
199          back, the velocity curve transformation functions used for this are
200          only an approximation so far
201        - fixed class attributes 'Sample::LoopStart', 'Sample::LoopEnd' and
202          'Sample::LoopSize' which reflected wrong values
203        - class attributes 'Sample::LoopStart' and 'Sample::LoopEnd' are now
204          measured in sample points instead of byte offset
205        - renamed misleading attribute name 'Sample::MIDIPitchFraction' to
206          'Sample::FineTune'
207        - added class attribute 'Sample::LoopSize'
208        - added method GetInstrument(uint index) to class 'File'
209        - added ReadAndLoop() method to class 'Sample' which is an extension to
210          the normal Read() method to honor the sample's looping information
211          while streaming from disk
212        - changed interface for 'attenuation_ctrl_t', 'eg1_ctrl_t' and
213          'eg2_ctrl_t': replaced this huge enumeration by a structure which
214          reflects the MIDI controller number in case of an ordinary control
215          change controller (this saves a huge switch-case block in the
216          application of the library user)
217        - renamed following attributes in class 'DimensionRegion':
218          'AttenuationContol' -> 'AttenuationController',
219          'InvertAttenuationControl' -> 'InvertAttenuationController',
220          'AttenuationControlTreshold' -> 'AttenuationControllerThreshold'
221        - minor fix in API documentation for method GetVelocityAttenuation() in
222          class 'DimensionRegion'
223    
224      * src/RIFF.cpp, src/RIFF.h:
225        - added additional API documentation
226        - minor fix in Chunk::Read() method (only a minor efficiency issue)
227    
228      * src/gigdump.cpp:
229        - added printout of samples' looping informations
230    
231  Version 0.6.0 (3 Nov 2003)  Version 0.6.0 (3 Nov 2003)
