1 schoenebeck 1993 Version CVS HEAD (?)
2    
3 capela 2174 * plugin changes:
4 schoenebeck 2304 - LV2 "state" extension support (patch by David Robillard)
5 capela 2174
6 persson 2086 * packaging changes:
7     - fixed building with newer MinGW-w64
8 persson 2183 - Mac OS X: support the new dir for Core Audio SDK
9     - Mac OS X: fixed building outside source directory
10     - made sure all source files for hostplugins are included when
11     doing "make dist"
12     - removed empty directories left from the cvs to svn migration
13 persson 2185 - fixed compilation with gcc 4.6.1
14 persson 2203 - another "make dist" fix, for the LV2 plugin
15 persson 2185 - made --enable-pthread-testcancel default on Mac OS X
16 persson 2197 - minor Makefile fix for building lscpparser when build and source
17     directories are separate
18 persson 2203 - Mac OS X: made it possible to specify plugin installation dir to
19     configure
20 persson 2208 - Mac OS X: Makefile fix for the install-strip target
21 persson 2335 - fixed compilation with gcc 4.7
22 persson 2343 - fixed configure script error with old autoconf versions
23     - lsatomic.h: use gcc provided atomic functions if building with

25 persson 2086
26     * general changes:
27 iliev 2012 - Refactoring: moved the independent code from
28     the Gigasampler format engine to base classes
29 schoenebeck 2047 - command line option '--profile' is currently disabled, since the
30     respective profiling code is currently broken
31 schoenebeck 2053 - Introduced support for optional environment variable
32     "LINUXSAMPLER_PLUGIN_DIR" which allows to override the directory
33     where the sampler shall look for instrument editor plugins
34     (patch by Luis Garrido, slightly modified).
35 schoenebeck 2121 - implemented Roland GS NRPN 1ArrH which allows to set volume per note
36     - implemented Roland GS NRPN 1CrrH which allows to set pan per note
37     - implemented Roland GS NRPN 1DrrH which allows to set reverb send per
38     note (in this implementation of the sampler its simply hard routed to
39     the 1st effect send of the sampler channel, no matter what the actual
40     effect type is)
41     - implemented Roland GS NRPN 1ErrH which allows to set chorus send per
42     note (in this implementation of the sampler its simply hard routed to
43     the 2nd effect send of the sampler channel, no matter what the actual
44     effect type is)
45 schoenebeck 2124 - implemented support for internal LADSPA effects
46 schoenebeck 2140 - raised limit of program change queue from 100 to 512

51 schoenebeck 2330 - Introduced new C++ API method:
52     EngineChannel::InstrumentFileName(int index)
53     allowing to retrieve the whole list of files used for the loaded
54     instrument on an engine channel (a.k.a. part). Some GigaStudio
55     instruments for example are splitted over several files like
56     "Foo.gig", "Foo.gx01", "Foo.gx02", ...
57 iliev 2012
58 persson 2043 * Gigasampler format engine:

344 schoenebeck 1599
345 schoenebeck 1639 * packaging changes:
346     - autoconf bugfix: the PKG_CONFIG variable wasn't initialized properly,
347     causing e.g. the libgig test to fail when
348     "./configure --disable-jack-driver" was used
349     (patch by Alexis Ballier)

357 persson 1897 - Windows: look for editor plugins and Fantasia using base
358 schoenebeck 1928 directory of liblinuxsampler dll (look in the same directory and one
359     directory above)
360 persson 1899 - configure script fix: removed unconditional use of SSE
361 persson 1923 - fixed building with sqlite installed in a non-standard directory

363     - fix for new mingw-w64 version, which has usleep
364 schoenebeck 1639
365 schoenebeck 1601 * general changes:
366     - bugfix: on some POSIX systems instrument editor plugins refused to
367     load as we used a non-portable Linux specific struct field
368     (fixes bug #70, patch by Ronald Baljeu)
369 schoenebeck 1602 - fixed endless loop which occured when loading an instrument editor
370     plugin DLL on Windows systems failed
371 persson 1644 - fixed memory leaks that occurred when liblinuxsampler was unloaded
372     - optimized the SynchronizedConfig class so it doesn't wait
373     unnecessarily long after an update
374 schoenebeck 1653 - added support for notifying instrument editors on note-on / note-off
375     events (e.g. to highlight the pressed keys on the virtual keyboard
376     of gigedit)

378 schoenebeck 1653 - be verbose on DLL load errors (on Linux)
379 schoenebeck 1681 - fixed di-harmonic triangle LFO implementation (this LFO implementation

381     implementation, which is usually faster)
382 persson 1748 - fixes for audio drivers with varying buffer sizes
383 persson 1777 - experimental support for running LinuxSampler as a DSSI, LV2 and
384     VST plugin

388     multi-core and multi-cpu systems
389 schoenebeck 1800 - maximum voices and disk streams can now be altered at runtime
390 persson 1825 - fixed CPU feature detection on x86_64 (maybe fixes #108)
391 schoenebeck 1830 - automatic stacktrace mechanism is now turned off by default and can
392     be switched on by command line option "--stacktrace" (the automatic
393     stacktrace mechanism seems to be broken on most systems at the moment)
394 schoenebeck 1868 - C++ API method InstrumentManager::LaunchInstrumentEditor() now returns
395     a pointer to the launched InstrumentEditor object
396 schoenebeck 1876 - added optional 3rd party user data parameter for following
397     liblinuxsampler C++ API methods: InstrumentEditor::Main(),
398     InstrumentEditor::Launch(),

400 persson 1887 - theoretical fix: made SynchronizedConfig follow C++0x memory
401     model more strictly
402 persson 1895 - fixes for using large audio device buffers
403 persson 1951 - Windows: add the installation directory to the DLL search path

406 schoenebeck 1601
407 schoenebeck 1599 * audio driver:
408     - removed the nonsense audio channel constraint (which was hard coded to
409     max. 100 audio channels) for most audio drivers
410 schoenebeck 1604 - JACK audio driver did not offer a device parameter "SAMPLERATE" as
411     opposed to the LSCP specs
412 schoenebeck 1607 - bugfix: the SAMPLERATE parameter of some drivers (e.g. JACK)
413     reflected the wrong value
414 persson 1644 - fixed a memory management bug in ASIO driver
415 persson 1748 - Makefile fix: JACK_CFLAGS wasn't used
416 persson 1777 - JACK: use jack_client_open instead of the deprecated
417 persson 1748 jack_client_new
418 iliev 1829 - added (experimental) CoreAudio driver
419 persson 1888 - applied old fixes to the ASIO driver that were included in the
420     previous binary release but accidentally never committed to CVS
421     (fixes #117)
422 persson 1889 - fixes for ASIO on mingw-w64 (iasio wrapper is not needed on
423     win64)
424 persson 1895 - VST: added support for sample rate and buffer size changes
425     - VST: close editor (Fantasia) when the VST is removed

430     stereo
431 persson 1922 - added channel routing, fxsends and midi maps to the settings
432     stored in the plugin state
433 schoenebeck 1930 - performance optimization of AudioChannel::MixTo() and
434     AudioChannel::CopyTo() methods using GCC vector exensions
435     (if available)
436 persson 1951 - ASIO fixes: avoid initializing the device twice, avoid throwing
437     exception when getting parameters from a disconnected device
438 schoenebeck 1599
439 persson 1651 * MIDI driver:
440     - added JACK MIDI driver
441 schoenebeck 1715 - dispatch bank select as ordinary CC as well, the user might seriously
442     want to (mis)use it for some purpose ("fixed" in all current MIDI
443     input drivers: ALSA, CoreMIDI, JACK, MidiShare, MME)
444 persson 1889 - bugfix: pitch bend wasn't working with JackMidi, VST, LV2, MME,
445 persson 1887 CoreMidi or AU
446 persson 1889 - fixed mingw-w64 compilation error in MME driver
447 persson 1924 - made program change handling in MIDI thread real-time safe by
448     moving the logic to a non-RT thread
449 persson 1951 - fixed minor memory leak in ALSA driver
450 persson 1651
451 schoenebeck 1604 * instruments database:
452 iliev 1603 - avoid time consuming samples scanning when adding instruments
453     to the instruments database
454 iliev 1727 - added support for handling lost files in the instruments database
455 iliev 1781 - Implemented option for adding instruments in separate directories
456     in the instruments database
457     (patch by Chris Cherrett & Andrew Williams, a bit adjusted)
458 persson 1908 - work-around for missing fnmatch function on Windows to make
459     instrument database compilable
460 schoenebeck 1930 - added instrument database support on Windows
461     works with both standalone mode and VST plugin.
462     the instruments DB file is located in
463     %USERPROFILE%\.linuxsampler\instruments.db which allows different
464     databases for each windows user
465     if no DB is present it automatically creates the .linuxsampler subdir
466     and then creates an empty DB
467 persson 1943 - fixed recursive import, which was broken on Windows
468 iliev 1603
469 persson 1644 * Gigasampler format engine:
470     - fixed a memory leak that could happen when a channel was deleted
471     while notes were playing
472 persson 1646 - made it possible to load an instrument even if the audio thread
473     isn't running
474 persson 1701 - added partial support for the "Controller Triggered" MIDI rule,
475     enough for piano gigs with pedal noise samples
476 schoenebeck 1715 - minor fix: only mark FX sends as being modified if really the
477     respective FX send MIDI controller was used
478 schoenebeck 1724 - added support for GM global device volume SysEx message
479 schoenebeck 1762 (can be selected at compile time to either apply globally to the
480     whole sampler [default] or only to the sampler channels that are
481     connected to the respective MIDI input port the SysEx message arrived
482     on)
483 persson 1748 - bugfix: notes triggered at position 0 in the audio buffer were
484     sometimes wrongly killed in the same buffer, causing no sound to
485     be played
486 schoenebeck 1750 - added support for chromatic / drumkit mode Roland GS Sysex message
487     which is usally used to switch a part between chromatic sounds and
488     drumkit sounds (as opposed to their common default setting of MIDI
489     part 10 being a drumkit part and all other ones chromatic parts), in
490     LS however one can switch between the first 16 MIDI instrument maps
491     defined for the sampler
492 persson 1764 - made it possible to create multiple sample channels even if the
493     audio thread isn't running
494 persson 1844 - fixed crash when removing channel with active voices (#116)
495 schoenebeck 1852 - bugfix: on sample reference changes (instrument editor), only
496     un-cache the respective sample if it's really not used by any
497     sampler engine anymore
498     - re-cache samples in case they were changed by an instrument editor,
499     e.g. when a sample was added while playing (#82)
500 schoenebeck 1857 - fixed hanging notes which occured when note-off event had the exact
501     same time stamp as the voice's note-on event and occured both in the
502     same audio fragment cycle (fixes bug #112)
503 persson 1858 - added support for the "fine tune" and "pitch bend range"
504     instrument-level gig parameters
505     - fixed minor artifacts in pitch bend handling
506 schoenebeck 1860 - added support for GS Reset SysEx message
507 persson 1862 - allow gig files to use unlimited downward pitch shifting
508     - added a limit check for upward pitch shifting
509 persson 1906 - bugfix: sometimes, when playing a note twice fast, the second
510     note was silent
511 persson 1923 - fixed crash happening when a pitch bend event arrived at the
512     same time a new instrument was loading
513 persson 1644
514 schoenebeck 1687 * LSCP server:
515     - added new LSCP event "CHANNEL_MIDI" which can be used by frontends to
516     react on MIDI data arriving on certain sampler channels (so far only
517     Note-On and Note-Off events are sent via this LSCP event)
518 schoenebeck 1695 - added new LSCP event "DEVICE_MIDI" which can be used by frontends to
519     react on MIDI data arriving on certain MIDI input devices (so far only
520     Note-On and Note-Off events are sent via this LSCP event)
521 iliev 1727 - added new LSCP commands: FIND LOST DB_INSTRUMENT_FILES and
522     SET DB_INSTRUMENT FILE_PATH
523 iliev 1771 - added new LSCP command: SEND CHANNEL MIDI_DATA which can be used by
524     frontends to send MIDI messages to specific sampler channel
525     - added two additional fields to GET FILE INSTRUMENT INFO command -
526     KEY_BINDINGS and KEYSWITCH_BINDINGS
527 iliev 1754 - bugfix: the bank number provided by MIDI_INSTRUMENT_INFO notifications
528     was incorrect
529 iliev 1763 - Optimized the retrieval of the MIDI instrument mappings
530 schoenebeck 1800 - added new LSCP command "SET VOICES" to globally alter the maximum
531     amount of voices, added new LSCP event "GLOBAL_INFO:VOICES" which will
532     be triggered respectively
533     - added new LSCP command "SET STREAMS" to globally alter the maximum
534     amount of disk streams, added new LSCP event "GLOBAL_INFO:STREAMS"
535     which will be triggered respectively
536 persson 1808 - bugfix: retry if "select" returns EINTR (this fixes a crash when
537     a gigedit file dialog is opened)
538 iliev 1848 - close all connections when LSCPServer is deleted
539 iliev 1882 - hard close of all sockets on exit
540 persson 1897 - bugfix: SET CHANNEL MIDI_INPUT_TYPE didn't work with the MME
541     driver
542 schoenebeck 1687
543 iliev 1761 * Bug fixes:
544     - fixed a crash which occurs when removing a sampler channel waiting
545     to start instrument loading after another channel
546 iliev 1826 - fixed a crash which occurs when removing a sampler channel with
547     instrument loading in progress (bug #113)
548 iliev 1827 - fixed termination caused by uncaught exception when adding MIDI
549     instrument with PERSISTENT load mode
550 iliev 1835 - fixed possible iterator invalidations when resetting the sampler
551     - fixed memory leaks when issuing the following LSCP commands:
552     GET AUDIO_OUTPUT_DRIVER INFO
553     GET AUDIO_OUTPUT_DRIVER_PARAMETER INFO
554     GET MIDI_INPUT_DRIVER INFO
555     GET MIDI_INPUT_DRIVER_PARAMETER INFO
556     - fixed possible compilation error when sqlite is not present
557 iliev 1843 - fixed orphaned pointers when setting maximum voices limit (bug #118)
558 iliev 1847 - fixed crash when changing the audio output device of a sampler
559     channel with loaded instrument and start playing notes
560 iliev 1855 - fixed endless loop in Engine::SuspendAll() (bug #120)
561 persson 1870 - fixed a low-level atomic load function that was broken on 64-bit
562     PowerPC, which probably could cause crashes on that platform
563 persson 1889 - fixed a memory management error which could cause a crash when a
564     plugin was unloaded
565 persson 1896 - bugfix: two private structs had the same name, which could cause
566     problems if the linker chose the wrong constructor
567 persson 1933 - fixed low-level ConditionServer usage bug that caused lockups on
568     Windows
569 iliev 1761
570    
571 schoenebeck 1560 Version 0.5.1 (6 December 2007)
572 schoenebeck 1454
573     * packaging changes:
574     - added autoconf checks for pthread library
575     - added autoconf check for pthread bug found on certain NPTL-enabled
576     glibc versions (see Gentoo bug report #194076)
577 senoner 1502 - added autoconf checks for MS Windows
578 schoenebeck 1454
579 persson 1455 * general changes:
580     - bugfix: the thread used by an editor plugin didn't die when the
581     editor closed
582 persson 1534 - bugfix: Ringbuffer.h: fill_write_space_with_null() did not zero
583     out all the space. operator--() did not apply size_mask after
584     decrementing the read_ptr. DEFAULT_WRAP_ELEMENTS set to 0 in
585     order to avoid problems with the _NonVolatileReader functions.
586     - bugfix: Stream.h: added a missing divide by BytesPerSample in
587     GetWriteSpace(). Since this function is currently only used in
588     the stream's qsort() compare function, it didn't trigger any
589     bugs.
590     - Resampler.h, Synthesizer.h: cubic interpolation now works in
591     24bit mode too. Faster method to read 24bit words on little
592     endian machines (x86): replaced 3 byte reads + shifts with a 1
593     unaligned 32bit read and shift
594     - experimental support for MS Windows (MIDI input via MME, AUDIO
595     output via ASIO)
596     - made handling of SIGINT signal (Ctrl-C) a bit more robust
597 iliev 1541 - support for monitoring the total number of active disk streams
598     (new LSCP commands: GET TOTAL_STREAM_COUNT,
599     SUBSCRIBE TOTAL_STREAM_COUNT, UNSUBSCRIBE TOTAL_STREAM_COUNT)
600 persson 1455
601 senoner 1500 * AUDIO driver:
602 persson 1534 - added Windows ASIO low latency audio driver
603 senoner 1500
604 senoner 1485 * MIDI driver:
605 schoenebeck 1495 - added MME Windows MIDI driver
606 senoner 1485
607 schoenebeck 1471 * LSCP server:
608     - added support for Windows style path / filenames, however with
609     forward slash path separators instead of backslash
610     (i.e. "C:/foo/bar.gig")
611 schoenebeck 1495 - allow naughty liblscp to send non-string device parameters within
612     apostrophes as well
613 schoenebeck 1525 - added new LSCP commands: "GET FILE INSTRUMENTS <file>",
614     "LIST FILE INSTRUMENTS <file>" and
615     "GET FILE INSTRUMENT INFO <file> <index>" for retrieving informations
616     about an arbitrary instrument file on the system where the sampler is
617     running on
618 schoenebeck 1471
619 schoenebeck 1424 Version 0.5.0 (15 October 2007)
620 schoenebeck 947
621 schoenebeck 1065 * packaging changes:
622 schoenebeck 1212 - config.h is not going to be installed along with liblinuxsampler's
623     API header files anymore
624 schoenebeck 1065 - only the API relevant header (and source) files will be exported to
625     the Doxygen API documentation (explicitly listed in Doxyfile.in)
626 schoenebeck 1175 - added completely new XCode project files for Mac OSX which is now
627     capable to execute our autoconf environment, thus no need anymore
628     to maintain the compile time configuration file (osx/version.h) for
629     OSX manually (patch by Toshi Nagata)
630 schoenebeck 1360 - fixed buggy boolean --enable-foo / --disable-foo configure script
631     parameters
632 schoenebeck 1424 - global.h now only covers global definitions that are needed for the
633     C++ API header files, all implementation internal global definitions
634     are now in global_private.h
635     - atomic.h is not exposed to the C++ API anymore
636     - no need to include config.h anymore for using LS's API header files
637     - fixed warnings in API doc generation
638 schoenebeck 1065
639 schoenebeck 947 * general changes:
640     - replaced the old, confusing MIDI program change mechanism by a
641     flexible MIDI instrument mapper which allows to map arbitrary
642 schoenebeck 973 (MIDI bank, MIDI program) pairs with arbitrary
643 schoenebeck 947 (engine type, instrument file, file index) triplets which will be
644     loaded on the respective channel when such MIDI program change
645     messages arrive, beside that, each entry allows to define a life-time
646     strategy for the instrument, so the user can define whether the
647     instrument should i.e. be permanently loaded (to be able to switch
648     quickly among sounds) or i.e. loaded just on demand when the
649     respective program change arrives (to safe RAM space), as well as a
650     global volume factor for each entry, so the user can adjust the volume
651     dynamic of his mapped instrument collection without having to modify
652 schoenebeck 973 the instrument files, also one can manage arbitrary amount of such
653     MIDI instrument maps and assign each sampler channel individually
654     a certain map, so that i.e. separation of normal instruments and
655     drumkits is possible
656 iliev 1108 - new notification events for tracking changes to audio/MIDI devices,
657     MIDI instrument maps, MIDI instruments, FX sends, global volume.
658 schoenebeck 990 - sampler was limited to load max. 200 instruments in the background
659     due to a constant size RingBuffer FIFO which is now replaced by a
660     dynamic (unlimited) size std::list FIFO
661 schoenebeck 1001 - added FX sends, these allow to route audio signals to arbitrary audio
662     output channels for being processed by external effect processors
663     (i.e. jack-rack), the send levels are controllable via arbitrary MIDI
664     controllers
665 schoenebeck 1005 - global (sampler wide) volume can now be controlled at runtime
666 iliev 1130 - Implemented new, improved notification system
667 schoenebeck 1149 - fixed compilation errors regarding OSX
668     (patch by Toshi Nagata)
669 iliev 1161 - implemented instruments database
670 iliev 1345 - added support for escape sequences to the instruments database
671 schoenebeck 1212 - added highly experimental support for on-the-fly instrument editing
672     within the sampler's process (by using instrument editor plugins),
673     you'll notice the new "Registered instrument editors:" message on
674 schoenebeck 1407 startup, added a new LSCP command:
675     "EDIT CHANNEL INSTRUMENT <sampler-channel>"
676 schoenebeck 1212 to spawn a matching instrument editor for the instrument on the
677     given sampler channel, the plugin path can be overridden at compile
678     time with ./configure --enable-plugin-dir=/some/dir
679 schoenebeck 1321 - added experimental code for synchronizing instrument editors hosted
680     in the sampler's process to safely edit instruments while playing
681     without a crash (hopefully) by either suspending single regions
682     wherever possible or if unavoidable whole engine(s)
683 schoenebeck 1221 - fixed several issues in fundamental "Thread" class: set scheduling
684     policy and priority on thread level, set a minimum stack size for
685     thread (TODO: a reasonable value yet to be tested), bugfix: non-RT
686     threads simply inherited properties of starting thread instead of
687     setting their own policy and priority
688 schoenebeck 1233 - minor fix in our automatic stack trace mechanism on crashes, the
689     main process did not wait for the stack trace process to finish
690     its output
691 persson 1248 - fixed some minor memory leaks
692 schoenebeck 1259 - reenabled assembly features support, at the moment only for
693     enabling a fast denormal FPU mode (x86 platforms supporting SSE2)
694 schoenebeck 1314 - minor assembly fix in x86 features detection (don't use the PIC
695     register, to avoid relocations in the text segment at runtime)
696 schoenebeck 1424 - POSIX callback functions of Thread.h are hidden
697 schoenebeck 947
698     * MIDI driver:
699     - dispatch bank select (MSB and LSB) messages
700    
701 schoenebeck 1049 * audio driver:
702     - the ALSA audio output driver parameters now reflect the correct
703     parameter value ranges for the respective selected sound card
704     (patch by Till Wimmer, a bit fixed and extended)
705    
706 persson 951 * Gigasampler format engine:
707     - if a filter is used and EG2 finishes before EG1, let the voice
708     die when EG2 has finished (this fixes a problem with clicks and
709     voice starvation for some gigs)
710 persson 1038 - playback is no longer disabled during instrument loading
711     - all notes playing on a channel that changes its instrument keep
712     playing with the old instrument until they get a note off
713     command
714 persson 1039 - EG fix: a release value of zero could cause noises or crash
715 schoenebeck 1041 - handle MIDI coarse tuning messages (MIDI RPN #0 MSB #2 LSB)
716 persson 1046 - EG fine tuning: when attack is zero the EG starts at a level
717     above max sustain level, which means that there is a decay phase
718     even if sustain is 100%
719 persson 1147 - more EG fixes: the level could sometimes go below zero and cause
720     noises or crashes
721 schoenebeck 1149 - minor fix of EGDecay (patch by Toshi Nagata)
722 schoenebeck 1181 - fixed compiler error when --enable-override-filter-type was
723     supplied to the configure script (fixes #46)
724 schoenebeck 1321 - disk thread: queue sizes are now proportional to CONFIG_MAX_STREAMS
725     instead of a fix value
726 schoenebeck 1348 - behavior fix: on MIDI CC# 65 (portamento on / off), 126 (mono mode),
727     127 (solo mode) only kill voices if the respective mode really
728     changed
729 persson 951
730 schoenebeck 1244 * LSCP server:
731     - fixed compile time error for old Bison versions
732     (i.e. v1.28 found on MacOS 10.4, patch by Toshi Nagata)
733 schoenebeck 1245 - parser now supports extended ASCII character set
734     (up to ASCII code 255, i.e. includes now umlauts and accents)
735     - filename arguments in LSCP commands now allow to use escape
736     sequences, that is directly literal as one of: \', \", \\, \n, \r,
737     \f, \t, \v, or as octal ASCII code value like \132, or as hex ASCII
738     code value like \xf2) (fixes bug #24)
739 schoenebeck 1389 - the following LSCP commands now also support escape sequences for at
740     least one of their text-based parameters (i.e. name, description):
741     "ADD MIDI_INSTRUMENT_MAP", "MAP MIDI_INSTRUMENT",
742     "SET MIDI_INSTRUMENT_MAP NAME", "SET FX_SEND NAME", "CREATE FX_SEND",
743     "SET DB_INSTRUMENT_DIRECTORY NAME",
744     "SET DB_INSTRUMENT_DIRECTORY DESCRIPTION", "SET DB_INSTRUMENT NAME",
745     "SET DB_INSTRUMENT DESCRIPTION", "FIND DB_INSTRUMENTS",
746     "FIND DB_INSTRUMENT_DIRECTORIES"
747 schoenebeck 1252 - returns verbose syntax errors (line and column where syntax error
748     occured, the unexpected character and the actually expected, possible
749     character(s), the latter only if less than 5 possibilities)
750 persson 1349 - made sure that LSCP syntax is not affected by gigedit locale
751     settings
752 schoenebeck 1379 - bugfix regarding strings parameter lists: all comma separated lists
753     of strings were treated as being one string containing commas
754     (fixes #57)
755 schoenebeck 1244
756 iliev 959 * Bug fixes:
757     - fixed crash occurring on certain LSCP scripts (Bug 39)
758 persson 1038 - another thread safety fix for lscp "load engine" and "set
759     channel audio output device"
760 iliev 1283 - fixed a crash which occurs when reassigning the same engine
761     on a sampler channel with connected MIDI device
762 iliev 1295 - fixed a crash which occurs when changing the number of ports of a MIDI
763     device connected to a sampler channel to number less then or equal
764     to the index of the port to which the sampler channel is connected.
765 iliev 1296 - The previous bindings were not been disconnected when altering
766     the ALSA_SEQ_BINDINGS parameter. Introduced a NONE keyword for
767     unsubscribing from all bindings (e.g. ALSA_SEQ_BINDINGS=NONE).
768 iliev 1297 - The active stream/voice count statistic was incorrect.
769 iliev 1298 - notification events were not been sent for some sampler
770     channel changes
771 iliev 1305 - added default min and max values to restrict the number of allowed
772     audio output channels and MIDI input ports
773 iliev 1306 - the connection to the PCM interface is now closed when destroying
774     an audio output device
775 schoenebeck 1332 - files with slash in their path or filename could not be loaded
776 iliev 959
777 schoenebeck 1221 * test cases:
778     - updated and fixed (haven't been touched in a while)
779    
780 schoenebeck 937 Version 0.4.0 (24 November 2006)
781 persson 696
782 schoenebeck 697 * packaging changes:
783 capela 868 - changed deprecated copyright attribute to license; added ldconfig
784     to post-(un)install steps; added devel package for liblinuxsampler;
785     to linuxsampler.spec (RPM)
786 schoenebeck 697 - install necessary development header files for allowing 3rd party
787     applications to link against liblinuxsampler
788     - liblinuxsampler's API documentation can be generated with 'make docs'
789     (Doxygen required)
790 schoenebeck 715 - added benchmark to automatically detect the best triangle LFO
791     implementation (currently either an integer math solution or a
792     di-harmonic approximation), automatic detection can be overriden
793     with --enable-signed-triang-algo=x and --enable-unsigned-triang-algo=x
794     configure script argument though (mandatory for cross-compilation)
795 schoenebeck 829 - do not automatically pick optimized gcc flags if the user already
796     provided some on his own (as CXXFLAGS)
797 schoenebeck 849 - added compile time option to disable processing of All-Notes-Off MIDI
798     messages
799 schoenebeck 852 - added compile time options to allow disabling the various audio and
800     MIDI drivers
801 schoenebeck 909 - fixed automatic GCC CPU switch detection on PPC
802     (patch by Ebrahim Mayat)
803 schoenebeck 697
804 persson 696 * Gigasampler format engine:
805 schoenebeck 738 - extensive synthesis optimization
806     (reimplementation of EGs and LFO(s), removed synthesis parameter
807     prerendering and the synthesis parameter matrix in general, splitting
808     each audio fragment into subfragments now where each subfragment uses
809 persson 830 constant pitch and filter coefficients. The volume coefficient is
810     linearly interpolated inside a subfragment, unless
811     --disable-interpolate-volume is set.)
812 persson 696 - fine tuning of the EG modulation parameters
813 persson 729 - improved filter cutoff calculation by adding support for the
814     following gig parameters: Cutoff freq (used when no cutoff
815     controller is defined), Control invert, Minimum cutoff, Velocity
816 persson 791 curve and Velocity range. The keyboard tracking now scales
817     cutoff frequency instead of resonance.
818 persson 877 - added support for gig parameter Resonance.
819 schoenebeck 775 - fixed bug in sysex handling (patch by Juan Linietsky)
820 schoenebeck 781 - added global volume attenuation of -9 dB (0.35f) to prevent clipping
821     which can be overridden with --enable-global-attenuation
822 persson 783 - EG fixes: made the length of "attack hold" stage more
823     accurate. Release stage can now start before attack stage
824 persson 797 ends. Cancel release didn't work when sustain was zero. Attack
825     time now has a minimal value to prevent clicks.
826 persson 799 - fixed pitch changes larger than one octave
827 schoenebeck 829 - fixed EG3 (pitch envelope) synthesis which was neutral all the time
828     - implemented portamento mode and solo mode (a.k.a 'mono mode'):
829     all modes can be altered via standard GM messages, that is CC5 for
830     altering portamento time, CC65 for enabling / disabling portamento
831     mode, CC126 for enabling solo mode and CC127 for disabling solo mode
832 persson 832 - fine tuning of the curves for volume (CC7), pan (CC10 and gig
833     parameter) and crossfade
834 persson 831 - added support for the "attenuation controller threshold" gig
835     parameter
836 persson 832 - added smoothing of volume changes caused by control change
837     messages
838 persson 865 - sample loop parameters are now taken from the DimensionRegion
839     instead of the wave chunk
840     - fixed keyswitching for v3 gigs with a number of keyswitch splits
841     not equal to a power of two
842 persson 877 - reimplementation of the filter algorithm. The new filter is more
843     accurate and supports all gig filter types, including bandreject
844     and lowpass turbo.
845 persson 903 - real support for 24 bit samples - samples are not truncated to
846     16 bits anymore
847     - support for aftertouch (channel pressure, not polyphonic
848     aftertouch)
849 persson 922 - LFO1 behaviour fixed (dampening from max volume instead of
850     amplifying from 0)
851 persson 696
852 schoenebeck 711 * LSCP server:
853     - fixed application exit on broken pipe error (fixes bug #20)
854 iliev 793 - fixed the notification messages delay due to lack of
855     network activity (fixes bug #26)
856 schoenebeck 826 - fixed parser bug which occured on space(s) within device parameters
857     (e.g. "SET AUDIO_OUTPUT_CHANNEL_PARAMETER 0 0 SOMEPARAM='foo bar'")
858 schoenebeck 711
859 schoenebeck 838 * audio driver:
860     - added aRts audio output driver (by no means RT safe)
861    
862 schoenebeck 775 * MIDI driver:
863     - fixed legacy sysex code which caused dispatching of MIDI SysEx
864     messages several times instead of once
865 schoenebeck 906 - API extension for MIDI drivers which already supply exact time stamps
866     for events (i.e. for offline rendering based MIDI drivers)
867 persson 922 - added checks for bad MIDI data
868 schoenebeck 775
869 schoenebeck 900 * linuxsampler application:
870     - show available sampler engine types on startup
871    
872 schoenebeck 705 * general changes:
873     - support for muting sampler channels and solo mode of the same, two new
874     LSCP commands ("SET CHANNEL MUTE" and "SET CHANNEL SOLO") and two new
875     fields ("MUTE" and "SOLO") for command "GET CHANNEL INFO" were
876     introduced for this, the behavior is the same like on a mixer console
877 iliev 716 (patch by Grigor Iliev, a bit adjusted). Also added configure option
878     --enable-process-muted-channels which can be used to enable the
879     processing of muted channels.
880 iliev 777 - support for sostenuto pedal
881 iliev 779 - support for monitoring the total number of active voices
882 iliev 778 (new LSCP commands: GET TOTAL_VOICE_COUNT, GET TOTAL_VOICE_COUNT_MAX,
883     SUBSCRIBE TOTAL_VOICE_COUNT, UNSUBSCRIBE TOTAL_VOICE_COUNT)
884 persson 835 - fixed some memory management errors
885 persson 841 - fixed some concurrency problems that could lead to crashes when
886     LSCP commands were executed
887 schoenebeck 925 - fixed crash when instrument loading failed previously on the same
888     sampler channel (fixes bug #36)
889 schoenebeck 705
890 schoenebeck 692 Version 0.3.3 (15 July 2005)
891 schoenebeck 686
892     * packaging changes:
893     - fixed compilation with gcc 4.0
894    
895 schoenebeck 687 * Gigasampler format engine:
896     - LFO preprocessing was performed even though the respective LFO was
897     disabled by the instrument patch (minor efficiency fix)
898 schoenebeck 688 - if period time of chosen audio device is too small (< MIN_RELEASE_TIME)
899     for volume ramp downs in the same fragment (needed for current voice
900     stealing implementation) then simply inform the user with a warning
901     about possible click sounds and reduce the volume ramp down
902     appropriately instead of cancelling the audio device connection
903 schoenebeck 687
904 schoenebeck 677 Version 0.3.2 (24 June 2005)
905 schoenebeck 609
906     * packaging changes:
907     - updated autotools build files to compile on OS X
908     (conditional compilation of CoreMIDI and MidiShare drivers)
909 schoenebeck 617 - hand-crafted assembly optimization code can be disabled with
910     './configure --disable-asm' (definitely not recommended)
911 schoenebeck 654 - fixed 'make dist' rule to include all necessary files
912     - require automake (>= 1.5) for 'make -f Makefile.cvs'
913     (due to 'dist-bzip2' automake option)
914 schoenebeck 649
915     * Gigasampler format engine:
916     - support for the gig parameters for "release velocity response" curves
917     - fine tuning of the EGADSR envelope
918     - volume of release triggered samples now depends on note-on velocity,
919     note length and gig parameter "release trigger decay" instead of
920     note-off velocity.
921 schoenebeck 663 - revised voice stealing
922     (fixes crash and endless loop caused by voice stealing)
923 schoenebeck 659 - don't reset scale tuning on instrument or audio output device change
924 schoenebeck 668 - handle key group conflicts right at the beginning of each fragment
925     instead of when the respective voice is actually launched
926     (fixes undefined behavior if stolen voices belonged to a key group -
927     this case was followed by a "killed voice survived" error message)
928 schoenebeck 669 - fixed minor issue with null/silence samples
929     (those stole voices even though they don't need a voice at all which
930     resulted in "voice stealing didn't work out" messages)
931 schoenebeck 670 - don't reset volume, pan, pitch and MIDI controller values on
932     instrument or audio output device change
933 schoenebeck 654
934 schoenebeck 620 * LSCP server:
935 schoenebeck 654 - fixed some crashes (patch by Grigor Iliev, fixes #19)
936 schoenebeck 660 - fixed LSCP event "CHANNEL_INFO" notification
937 schoenebeck 670 (e.g. did not notify on volume changes or MIDI program change events)
938 schoenebeck 609
939 schoenebeck 668 * linuxsampler application:
940     - added command line parameters --lscp-addr and --lscp-port to override
941     default IP address and port of LSCP server
942    
943 schoenebeck 579 Version 0.3.1 (24 May 2005)
944    
945     * initial release
