40 persson 2382
41 persson 2086 * general changes:
42 iliev 2012 - Refactoring: moved the independent code from
43     the Gigasampler format engine to base classes
44 schoenebeck 2047 - command line option '--profile' is currently disabled, since the
45     respective profiling code is currently broken
46 schoenebeck 2053 - Introduced support for optional environment variable
47     "LINUXSAMPLER_PLUGIN_DIR" which allows to override the directory
48     where the sampler shall look for instrument editor plugins
49     (patch by Luis Garrido, slightly modified).
50 schoenebeck 2121 - implemented Roland GS NRPN 1ArrH which allows to set volume per note
51     - implemented Roland GS NRPN 1CrrH which allows to set pan per note
52     - implemented Roland GS NRPN 1DrrH which allows to set reverb send per
53     note (in this implementation of the sampler its simply hard routed to
54     the 1st effect send of the sampler channel, no matter what the actual
55     effect type is)
56     - implemented Roland GS NRPN 1ErrH which allows to set chorus send per
57     note (in this implementation of the sampler its simply hard routed to
58     the 2nd effect send of the sampler channel, no matter what the actual
59     effect type is)
60 schoenebeck 2124 - implemented support for internal LADSPA effects
61 schoenebeck 2140 - raised limit of program change queue from 100 to 512
62     (as suggested by Alex Stone)
63 iliev 2223 - implemented sine LFO, pulse LFO and saw LFO
64 iliev 2296 - experimental support for per voice equalization
65 iliev 2306 - added command line option --exec-after-init
66 schoenebeck 2330 - Introduced new C++ API method:
67     EngineChannel::InstrumentFileName(int index)
68     allowing to retrieve the whole list of files used for the loaded
69     instrument on an engine channel (a.k.a. part). Some GigaStudio
70     instruments for example are splitted over several files like
71     "Foo.gig", "Foo.gx01", "Foo.gx02", ...
72 schoenebeck 2375 - Added new C++ API method Sampler::GetGlobalMaxVoices().
73     - Added new C++ API method Sampler::GetGlobalMaxStreams().
74     - Added new C++ API method Sampler::SetGlobalMaxVoices().
75     - Added new C++ API method Sampler::SetGlobalMaxStreams().
76 schoenebeck 2377 - Various "const" and "restrict" optimizations.
77 persson 2382 - all engines: add pan CC value to instrument pan parameter before
78     applying panning, instead of using two separate pan functions in
79     series (#182)
80 persson 2427 - added a lock guard class for exception safe mutex handling and
81     used it everywhere appropriate
82 schoenebeck 2448 - Immediately apply scale tuning changes to active voices.
83     - Exposed scale tuning to C++ API (along to the already existing standard
84     SysEx way).
85 persson 2452 - lsatomic.h fixes: seq_cst load and store were suboptimal for x86
86     and broken for ppc64. (Seq_cst loads and stores are actually not
87     used in LS, so the bug wasn't noticable.)
88     - lsatomic.h: added ARMv7 support
89 schoenebeck 2500 - Added support for multiple MIDI input ports per sampler channel (and
90     added various new C++ methods for this new feature / design change, old
91     C++ API methods for managing SamplerChannel's MIDI inputs are now marked
92     as deprecated but are still there and should provide full behavior
93     backward compatibility).
94     - AbstractEngine::GSChecksum(): don't allocate memory on the stack (was
95     unsafe and caused compilation error with clang 2.x).
96 schoenebeck 2506 - Bugfix: only process the latest MIDI program change event.
97 schoenebeck 2515 - Introducing the LSCP shell, which provides convenient control of the
98     sampler from the command line by providing LSCP aware features.
99 schoenebeck 2521 - VirtualMidiDevice: Added support for program change.
100     - VirtualMidiDevice: Added support for bank select (MSB & LSB).
101     - VirtualMidiDevice: Added support for pitch bend.

108     key
109 persson 2382 - bugfix: pitch LFO controller "internal+aftertouch" was broken
110     - bugfix: filter keyboard tracking was broken
111     - filter performance fix (an unnecessary copy was made of the
112     filter parameters in each sub fragment)
113     - handle special case when pan parameter in gig file has max or
114     min value
115 schoenebeck 2396 - Exclusive Groups: don't ever stop voices of the same note,
116     doesn't sound naturally with a drumkit

429     after MIDI/audio device creation failure
430 schoenebeck 2275 - When creating MIDI instrument map entries with "PERSISTENT" type, the

432     took the full preloading time and on 1st program change the respective
433     instrument was completely reloaded again.
434 persson 2277 - fixed handling of rapid bank select and program change messages
435     sent to the same sampler channel (patch from the Open Octave

457     (fixes #208)
458 schoenebeck 2523 - Fixed bug in LSCP grammar definition which caused a statement like
459     "GET SERVER INFOasdf\n" to be accepted as valid statement (was so far
460     practically irrelevant, however it caused problems with the new LSCP
461     shell's auto completion feature).

513     stacktrace mechanism seems to be broken on most systems at the moment)
514 schoenebeck 1868 - C++ API method InstrumentManager::LaunchInstrumentEditor() now returns
515     a pointer to the launched InstrumentEditor object
516 schoenebeck 1876 - added optional 3rd party user data parameter for following

558     exception when getting parameters from a disconnected device
559 schoenebeck 1599
560 persson 1651 * MIDI driver:
561     - added JACK MIDI driver
562 schoenebeck 1715 - dispatch bank select as ordinary CC as well, the user might seriously
563     want to (mis)use it for some purpose ("fixed" in all current MIDI
564     input drivers: ALSA, CoreMIDI, JACK, MidiShare, MME)
565 persson 1889 - bugfix: pitch bend wasn't working with JackMidi, VST, LV2, MME,

580     instrument database compilable
581 schoenebeck 1930 - added instrument database support on Windows
582     works with both standalone mode and VST plugin.
583     the instruments DB file is located in
584     %USERPROFILE%\.linuxsampler\instruments.db which allows different
585     databases for each windows user
586     if no DB is present it automatically creates the .linuxsampler subdir
587     and then creates an empty DB
588 persson 1943 - fixed recursive import, which was broken on Windows
589 iliev 1603
590 persson 1644 * Gigasampler format engine:
591     - fixed a memory leak that could happen when a channel was deleted

595 persson 1701 - added partial support for the "Controller Triggered" MIDI rule,
596     enough for piano gigs with pedal noise samples
597 schoenebeck 1715 - minor fix: only mark FX sends as being modified if really the
598     respective FX send MIDI controller was used
599 schoenebeck 1724 - added support for GM global device volume SysEx message
600 schoenebeck 1762 (can be selected at compile time to either apply globally to the
601     whole sampler [default] or only to the sampler channels that are
602     connected to the respective MIDI input port the SysEx message arrived
603     on)
604 persson 1748 - bugfix: notes triggered at position 0 in the audio buffer were
605     sometimes wrongly killed in the same buffer, causing no sound to
606     be played
607 schoenebeck 1750 - added support for chromatic / drumkit mode Roland GS Sysex message
608     which is usally used to switch a part between chromatic sounds and
609     drumkit sounds (as opposed to their common default setting of MIDI
610     part 10 being a drumkit part and all other ones chromatic parts), in
611     LS however one can switch between the first 16 MIDI instrument maps
612     defined for the sampler
613 persson 1764 - made it possible to create multiple sample channels even if the
614     audio thread isn't running
615 persson 1844 - fixed crash when removing channel with active voices (#116)
616 schoenebeck 1852 - bugfix: on sample reference changes (instrument editor), only

618     sampler engine anymore
619     - re-cache samples in case they were changed by an instrument editor,
620     e.g. when a sample was added while playing (#82)
621 schoenebeck 1857 - fixed hanging notes which occured when note-off event had the exact
622     same time stamp as the voice's note-on event and occured both in the
623     same audio fragment cycle (fixes bug #112)
624 persson 1858 - added support for the "fine tune" and "pitch bend range"
625     instrument-level gig parameters
626     - fixed minor artifacts in pitch bend handling

628 persson 1862 - allow gig files to use unlimited downward pitch shifting
629     - added a limit check for upward pitch shifting
630 persson 1906 - bugfix: sometimes, when playing a note twice fast, the second
631     note was silent
632 persson 1923 - fixed crash happening when a pitch bend event arrived at the
633     same time a new instrument was loading
634 persson 1644
635 schoenebeck 1687 * LSCP server:
636     - added new LSCP event "CHANNEL_MIDI" which can be used by frontends to
637     react on MIDI data arriving on certain sampler channels (so far only
638     Note-On and Note-Off events are sent via this LSCP event)
639 schoenebeck 1695 - added new LSCP event "DEVICE_MIDI" which can be used by frontends to
640     react on MIDI data arriving on certain MIDI input devices (so far only
641     Note-On and Note-Off events are sent via this LSCP event)
642 iliev 1727 - added new LSCP commands: FIND LOST DB_INSTRUMENT_FILES and
643     SET DB_INSTRUMENT FILE_PATH

645     frontends to send MIDI messages to specific sampler channel
646     - added two additional fields to GET FILE INSTRUMENT INFO command -
647     KEY_BINDINGS and KEYSWITCH_BINDINGS
648 iliev 1754 - bugfix: the bank number provided by MIDI_INSTRUMENT_INFO notifications
649     was incorrect
650 iliev 1763 - Optimized the retrieval of the MIDI instrument mappings
651 schoenebeck 1800 - added new LSCP command "SET VOICES" to globally alter the maximum
652     amount of voices, added new LSCP event "GLOBAL_INFO:VOICES" which will
653     be triggered respectively
654     - added new LSCP command "SET STREAMS" to globally alter the maximum
655     amount of disk streams, added new LSCP event "GLOBAL_INFO:STREAMS"
656     which will be triggered respectively
657 persson 1808 - bugfix: retry if "select" returns EINTR (this fixes a crash when
658     a gigedit file dialog is opened)
659 iliev 1848 - close all connections when LSCPServer is deleted
660 iliev 1882 - hard close of all sockets on exit

684 persson 1889 - fixed a memory management error which could cause a crash when a
685     plugin was unloaded

699 schoenebeck 1454
700 persson 1455 * general changes:
701     - bugfix: the thread used by an editor plugin didn't die when the
702     editor closed
703 persson 1534 - bugfix: Ringbuffer.h: fill_write_space_with_null() did not zero
704     out all the space. operator--() did not apply size_mask after
705     decrementing the read_ptr. DEFAULT_WRAP_ELEMENTS set to 0 in
706     order to avoid problems with the _NonVolatileReader functions.
707     - bugfix: Stream.h: added a missing divide by BytesPerSample in
708     GetWriteSpace(). Since this function is currently only used in
709     the stream's qsort() compare function, it didn't trigger any
710     bugs.
711     - Resampler.h, Synthesizer.h: cubic interpolation now works in
712     24bit mode too. Faster method to read 24bit words on little
713     endian machines (x86): replaced 3 byte reads + shifts with a 1
714     unaligned 32bit read and shift
715     - experimental support for MS Windows (MIDI input via MME, AUDIO
716     output via ASIO)
717     - made handling of SIGINT signal (Ctrl-C) a bit more robust
718 iliev 1541 - support for monitoring the total number of active disk streams
719     (new LSCP commands: GET TOTAL_STREAM_COUNT,
720     SUBSCRIBE TOTAL_STREAM_COUNT, UNSUBSCRIBE TOTAL_STREAM_COUNT)
721 persson 1455
722 senoner 1500 * AUDIO driver:
723 persson 1534 - added Windows ASIO low latency audio driver
724 senoner 1500
725 senoner 1485 * MIDI driver:
726 schoenebeck 1495 - added MME Windows MIDI driver
727 senoner 1485
728 schoenebeck 1471 * LSCP server:
729     - added support for Windows style path / filenames, however with
730     forward slash path separators instead of backslash
731     (i.e. "C:/foo/bar.gig")
732 schoenebeck 1495 - allow naughty liblscp to send non-string device parameters within
733     apostrophes as well
734 schoenebeck 1525 - added new LSCP commands: "GET FILE INSTRUMENTS <file>",
735     "LIST FILE INSTRUMENTS <file>" and
736     "GET FILE INSTRUMENT INFO <file> <index>" for retrieving informations
737     about an arbitrary instrument file on the system where the sampler is
738     running on
739 schoenebeck 1471
740 schoenebeck 1424 Version 0.5.0 (15 October 2007)
741 schoenebeck 947
742 schoenebeck 1065 * packaging changes:
743 schoenebeck 1212 - config.h is not going to be installed along with liblinuxsampler's
744     API header files anymore
745 schoenebeck 1065 - only the API relevant header (and source) files will be exported to
746     the Doxygen API documentation (explicitly listed in Doxyfile.in)
747 schoenebeck 1175 - added completely new XCode project files for Mac OSX which is now
748     capable to execute our autoconf environment, thus no need anymore
749     to maintain the compile time configuration file (osx/version.h) for
750     OSX manually (patch by Toshi Nagata)
751 schoenebeck 1360 - fixed buggy boolean --enable-foo / --disable-foo configure script
752     parameters
753 schoenebeck 1424 - global.h now only covers global definitions that are needed for the
754     C++ API header files, all implementation internal global definitions
755     are now in global_private.h
756     - atomic.h is not exposed to the C++ API anymore
757     - no need to include config.h anymore for using LS's API header files
758     - fixed warnings in API doc generation
759 schoenebeck 1065
760 schoenebeck 947 * general changes:
761     - replaced the old, confusing MIDI program change mechanism by a
762     flexible MIDI instrument mapper which allows to map arbitrary
763 schoenebeck 973 (MIDI bank, MIDI program) pairs with arbitrary
764 schoenebeck 947 (engine type, instrument file, file index) triplets which will be
765     loaded on the respective channel when such MIDI program change
766     messages arrive, beside that, each entry allows to define a life-time
767     strategy for the instrument, so the user can define whether the
768     instrument should i.e. be permanently loaded (to be able to switch
769     quickly among sounds) or i.e. loaded just on demand when the
770     respective program change arrives (to safe RAM space), as well as a
771     global volume factor for each entry, so the user can adjust the volume
772     dynamic of his mapped instrument collection without having to modify
773 schoenebeck 973 the instrument files, also one can manage arbitrary amount of such
774     MIDI instrument maps and assign each sampler channel individually
775     a certain map, so that i.e. separation of normal instruments and
776     drumkits is possible
777 iliev 1108 - new notification events for tracking changes to audio/MIDI devices,
778     MIDI instrument maps, MIDI instruments, FX sends, global volume.
779 schoenebeck 990 - sampler was limited to load max. 200 instruments in the background
780     due to a constant size RingBuffer FIFO which is now replaced by a
781     dynamic (unlimited) size std::list FIFO
782 schoenebeck 1001 - added FX sends, these allow to route audio signals to arbitrary audio
783     output channels for being processed by external effect processors
784     (i.e. jack-rack), the send levels are controllable via arbitrary MIDI
785     controllers
786 schoenebeck 1005 - global (sampler wide) volume can now be controlled at runtime
787 iliev 1130 - Implemented new, improved notification system
788 schoenebeck 1149 - fixed compilation errors regarding OSX
789     (patch by Toshi Nagata)
790 iliev 1161 - implemented instruments database
791 iliev 1345 - added support for escape sequences to the instruments database
792 schoenebeck 1212 - added highly experimental support for on-the-fly instrument editing
793     within the sampler's process (by using instrument editor plugins),
794     you'll notice the new "Registered instrument editors:" message on
795 schoenebeck 1407 startup, added a new LSCP command:
796     "EDIT CHANNEL INSTRUMENT <sampler-channel>"
797 schoenebeck 1212 to spawn a matching instrument editor for the instrument on the
798     given sampler channel, the plugin path can be overridden at compile
799     time with ./configure --enable-plugin-dir=/some/dir
800 schoenebeck 1321 - added experimental code for synchronizing instrument editors hosted
801     in the sampler's process to safely edit instruments while playing
802     without a crash (hopefully) by either suspending single regions
803     wherever possible or if unavoidable whole engine(s)
804 schoenebeck 1221 - fixed several issues in fundamental "Thread" class: set scheduling
805     policy and priority on thread level, set a minimum stack size for
806     thread (TODO: a reasonable value yet to be tested), bugfix: non-RT
807     threads simply inherited properties of starting thread instead of
808     setting their own policy and priority
809 schoenebeck 1233 - minor fix in our automatic stack trace mechanism on crashes, the
810     main process did not wait for the stack trace process to finish
811     its output
812 persson 1248 - fixed some minor memory leaks
813 schoenebeck 1259 - reenabled assembly features support, at the moment only for
814     enabling a fast denormal FPU mode (x86 platforms supporting SSE2)
815 schoenebeck 1314 - minor assembly fix in x86 features detection (don't use the PIC
816     register, to avoid relocations in the text segment at runtime)
817 schoenebeck 1424 - POSIX callback functions of Thread.h are hidden
818 schoenebeck 947
819     * MIDI driver:
820     - dispatch bank select (MSB and LSB) messages
821    
822 schoenebeck 1049 * audio driver:
823     - the ALSA audio output driver parameters now reflect the correct
824     parameter value ranges for the respective selected sound card
825     (patch by Till Wimmer, a bit fixed and extended)
826    
827 persson 951 * Gigasampler format engine:
828     - if a filter is used and EG2 finishes before EG1, let the voice
829     die when EG2 has finished (this fixes a problem with clicks and
830     voice starvation for some gigs)
831 persson 1038 - playback is no longer disabled during instrument loading
832     - all notes playing on a channel that changes its instrument keep
833     playing with the old instrument until they get a note off
834     command
835 persson 1039 - EG fix: a release value of zero could cause noises or crash
836 schoenebeck 1041 - handle MIDI coarse tuning messages (MIDI RPN #0 MSB #2 LSB)
837 persson 1046 - EG fine tuning: when attack is zero the EG starts at a level
838     above max sustain level, which means that there is a decay phase
839     even if sustain is 100%
840 persson 1147 - more EG fixes: the level could sometimes go below zero and cause
841     noises or crashes
842 schoenebeck 1149 - minor fix of EGDecay (patch by Toshi Nagata)
843 schoenebeck 1181 - fixed compiler error when --enable-override-filter-type was
844     supplied to the configure script (fixes #46)
845 schoenebeck 1321 - disk thread: queue sizes are now proportional to CONFIG_MAX_STREAMS
846     instead of a fix value
847 schoenebeck 1348 - behavior fix: on MIDI CC# 65 (portamento on / off), 126 (mono mode),
848     127 (solo mode) only kill voices if the respective mode really
849     changed
850 persson 951
851 schoenebeck 1244 * LSCP server:
852     - fixed compile time error for old Bison versions
853     (i.e. v1.28 found on MacOS 10.4, patch by Toshi Nagata)
854 schoenebeck 1245 - parser now supports extended ASCII character set
855     (up to ASCII code 255, i.e. includes now umlauts and accents)
856     - filename arguments in LSCP commands now allow to use escape
857     sequences, that is directly literal as one of: \', \", \\, \n, \r,
858     \f, \t, \v, or as octal ASCII code value like \132, or as hex ASCII
859     code value like \xf2) (fixes bug #24)
860 schoenebeck 1389 - the following LSCP commands now also support escape sequences for at
861     least one of their text-based parameters (i.e. name, description):
862     "ADD MIDI_INSTRUMENT_MAP", "MAP MIDI_INSTRUMENT",
863     "SET MIDI_INSTRUMENT_MAP NAME", "SET FX_SEND NAME", "CREATE FX_SEND",
864     "SET DB_INSTRUMENT_DIRECTORY NAME",
865     "SET DB_INSTRUMENT_DIRECTORY DESCRIPTION", "SET DB_INSTRUMENT NAME",
866     "SET DB_INSTRUMENT DESCRIPTION", "FIND DB_INSTRUMENTS",
867     "FIND DB_INSTRUMENT_DIRECTORIES"
868 schoenebeck 1252 - returns verbose syntax errors (line and column where syntax error
869     occured, the unexpected character and the actually expected, possible
870     character(s), the latter only if less than 5 possibilities)
871 persson 1349 - made sure that LSCP syntax is not affected by gigedit locale
872     settings
873 schoenebeck 1379 - bugfix regarding strings parameter lists: all comma separated lists
874     of strings were treated as being one string containing commas
875     (fixes #57)
876 schoenebeck 1244
877 iliev 959 * Bug fixes:
878     - fixed crash occurring on certain LSCP scripts (Bug 39)
879 persson 1038 - another thread safety fix for lscp "load engine" and "set
880     channel audio output device"
881 iliev 1283 - fixed a crash which occurs when reassigning the same engine
882     on a sampler channel with connected MIDI device
883 iliev 1295 - fixed a crash which occurs when changing the number of ports of a MIDI
884     device connected to a sampler channel to number less then or equal
885     to the index of the port to which the sampler channel is connected.
886 iliev 1296 - The previous bindings were not been disconnected when altering
887     the ALSA_SEQ_BINDINGS parameter. Introduced a NONE keyword for
888     unsubscribing from all bindings (e.g. ALSA_SEQ_BINDINGS=NONE).
889 iliev 1297 - The active stream/voice count statistic was incorrect.
890 iliev 1298 - notification events were not been sent for some sampler
891     channel changes
892 iliev 1305 - added default min and max values to restrict the number of allowed
893     audio output channels and MIDI input ports
894 iliev 1306 - the connection to the PCM interface is now closed when destroying
895     an audio output device
896 schoenebeck 1332 - files with slash in their path or filename could not be loaded
897 iliev 959
898 schoenebeck 1221 * test cases:
899     - updated and fixed (haven't been touched in a while)
900    
901 schoenebeck 937 Version 0.4.0 (24 November 2006)
902 persson 696
903 schoenebeck 697 * packaging changes:
904 capela 868 - changed deprecated copyright attribute to license; added ldconfig
905     to post-(un)install steps; added devel package for liblinuxsampler;
906     to linuxsampler.spec (RPM)
907 schoenebeck 697 - install necessary development header files for allowing 3rd party
908     applications to link against liblinuxsampler
909     - liblinuxsampler's API documentation can be generated with 'make docs'
910     (Doxygen required)
911 schoenebeck 715 - added benchmark to automatically detect the best triangle LFO
912     implementation (currently either an integer math solution or a
913     di-harmonic approximation), automatic detection can be overriden
914     with --enable-signed-triang-algo=x and --enable-unsigned-triang-algo=x
915     configure script argument though (mandatory for cross-compilation)
916 schoenebeck 829 - do not automatically pick optimized gcc flags if the user already
917     provided some on his own (as CXXFLAGS)
918 schoenebeck 849 - added compile time option to disable processing of All-Notes-Off MIDI
919     messages
920 schoenebeck 852 - added compile time options to allow disabling the various audio and
921     MIDI drivers
922 schoenebeck 909 - fixed automatic GCC CPU switch detection on PPC
923     (patch by Ebrahim Mayat)
924 schoenebeck 697
925 persson 696 * Gigasampler format engine:
926 schoenebeck 738 - extensive synthesis optimization
927     (reimplementation of EGs and LFO(s), removed synthesis parameter
928     prerendering and the synthesis parameter matrix in general, splitting
929     each audio fragment into subfragments now where each subfragment uses
930 persson 830 constant pitch and filter coefficients. The volume coefficient is
931     linearly interpolated inside a subfragment, unless
932     --disable-interpolate-volume is set.)
933 persson 696 - fine tuning of the EG modulation parameters
934 persson 729 - improved filter cutoff calculation by adding support for the
935     following gig parameters: Cutoff freq (used when no cutoff
936     controller is defined), Control invert, Minimum cutoff, Velocity
937 persson 791 curve and Velocity range. The keyboard tracking now scales
938     cutoff frequency instead of resonance.
939 persson 877 - added support for gig parameter Resonance.
940 schoenebeck 775 - fixed bug in sysex handling (patch by Juan Linietsky)
941 schoenebeck 781 - added global volume attenuation of -9 dB (0.35f) to prevent clipping
942     which can be overridden with --enable-global-attenuation
943 persson 783 - EG fixes: made the length of "attack hold" stage more
944     accurate. Release stage can now start before attack stage
945 persson 797 ends. Cancel release didn't work when sustain was zero. Attack
946     time now has a minimal value to prevent clicks.
947 persson 799 - fixed pitch changes larger than one octave
948 schoenebeck 829 - fixed EG3 (pitch envelope) synthesis which was neutral all the time
949     - implemented portamento mode and solo mode (a.k.a 'mono mode'):
950     all modes can be altered via standard GM messages, that is CC5 for
951     altering portamento time, CC65 for enabling / disabling portamento
952     mode, CC126 for enabling solo mode and CC127 for disabling solo mode
953 persson 832 - fine tuning of the curves for volume (CC7), pan (CC10 and gig
954     parameter) and crossfade
955 persson 831 - added support for the "attenuation controller threshold" gig
956     parameter
957 persson 832 - added smoothing of volume changes caused by control change
958     messages
959 persson 865 - sample loop parameters are now taken from the DimensionRegion
960     instead of the wave chunk
961     - fixed keyswitching for v3 gigs with a number of keyswitch splits
962     not equal to a power of two
963 persson 877 - reimplementation of the filter algorithm. The new filter is more
964     accurate and supports all gig filter types, including bandreject
965     and lowpass turbo.
966 persson 903 - real support for 24 bit samples - samples are not truncated to
967     16 bits anymore
968     - support for aftertouch (channel pressure, not polyphonic
969     aftertouch)
970 persson 922 - LFO1 behaviour fixed (dampening from max volume instead of
971     amplifying from 0)
972 persson 696
973 schoenebeck 711 * LSCP server:
974     - fixed application exit on broken pipe error (fixes bug #20)
975 iliev 793 - fixed the notification messages delay due to lack of
976     network activity (fixes bug #26)
977 schoenebeck 826 - fixed parser bug which occured on space(s) within device parameters
978     (e.g. "SET AUDIO_OUTPUT_CHANNEL_PARAMETER 0 0 SOMEPARAM='foo bar'")
979 schoenebeck 711
980 schoenebeck 838 * audio driver:
981     - added aRts audio output driver (by no means RT safe)
982    
983 schoenebeck 775 * MIDI driver:
984     - fixed legacy sysex code which caused dispatching of MIDI SysEx
985     messages several times instead of once
986 schoenebeck 906 - API extension for MIDI drivers which already supply exact time stamps
987     for events (i.e. for offline rendering based MIDI drivers)
988 persson 922 - added checks for bad MIDI data
989 schoenebeck 775
990 schoenebeck 900 * linuxsampler application:
991     - show available sampler engine types on startup
992    
993 schoenebeck 705 * general changes:
994     - support for muting sampler channels and solo mode of the same, two new
995     LSCP commands ("SET CHANNEL MUTE" and "SET CHANNEL SOLO") and two new
996     fields ("MUTE" and "SOLO") for command "GET CHANNEL INFO" were
997     introduced for this, the behavior is the same like on a mixer console
998 iliev 716 (patch by Grigor Iliev, a bit adjusted). Also added configure option
999     --enable-process-muted-channels which can be used to enable the
1000     processing of muted channels.
1001 iliev 777 - support for sostenuto pedal
1002 iliev 779 - support for monitoring the total number of active voices
1003 iliev 778 (new LSCP commands: GET TOTAL_VOICE_COUNT, GET TOTAL_VOICE_COUNT_MAX,
1004     SUBSCRIBE TOTAL_VOICE_COUNT, UNSUBSCRIBE TOTAL_VOICE_COUNT)
1005 persson 835 - fixed some memory management errors
1006 persson 841 - fixed some concurrency problems that could lead to crashes when
1007     LSCP commands were executed
1008 schoenebeck 925 - fixed crash when instrument loading failed previously on the same
1009     sampler channel (fixes bug #36)
1010 schoenebeck 705
1011 schoenebeck 692 Version 0.3.3 (15 July 2005)
1012 schoenebeck 686
1013     * packaging changes:
1014     - fixed compilation with gcc 4.0
1015    
1016 schoenebeck 687 * Gigasampler format engine:
1017     - LFO preprocessing was performed even though the respective LFO was
1018     disabled by the instrument patch (minor efficiency fix)
1019 schoenebeck 688 - if period time of chosen audio device is too small (< MIN_RELEASE_TIME)
1020     for volume ramp downs in the same fragment (needed for current voice
1021     stealing implementation) then simply inform the user with a warning
1022     about possible click sounds and reduce the volume ramp down
1023     appropriately instead of cancelling the audio device connection
1024 schoenebeck 687
1025 schoenebeck 677 Version 0.3.2 (24 June 2005)
1026 schoenebeck 609
1027     * packaging changes:
1028     - updated autotools build files to compile on OS X
1029     (conditional compilation of CoreMIDI and MidiShare drivers)
1030 schoenebeck 617 - hand-crafted assembly optimization code can be disabled with
1031     './configure --disable-asm' (definitely not recommended)
1032 schoenebeck 654 - fixed 'make dist' rule to include all necessary files
1033     - require automake (>= 1.5) for 'make -f Makefile.cvs'
1034     (due to 'dist-bzip2' automake option)
1035 schoenebeck 649
1036     * Gigasampler format engine:
1037     - support for the gig parameters for "release velocity response" curves
1038     - fine tuning of the EGADSR envelope
1039     - volume of release triggered samples now depends on note-on velocity,
1040     note length and gig parameter "release trigger decay" instead of
1041     note-off velocity.
1042 schoenebeck 663 - revised voice stealing
1043     (fixes crash and endless loop caused by voice stealing)
1044 schoenebeck 659 - don't reset scale tuning on instrument or audio output device change
1045 schoenebeck 668 - handle key group conflicts right at the beginning of each fragment
1046     instead of when the respective voice is actually launched
1047     (fixes undefined behavior if stolen voices belonged to a key group -
1048     this case was followed by a "killed voice survived" error message)
1049 schoenebeck 669 - fixed minor issue with null/silence samples
1050     (those stole voices even though they don't need a voice at all which
1051     resulted in "voice stealing didn't work out" messages)
1052 schoenebeck 670 - don't reset volume, pan, pitch and MIDI controller values on
1053     instrument or audio output device change
1054 schoenebeck 654
1055 schoenebeck 620 * LSCP server:
1056 schoenebeck 654 - fixed some crashes (patch by Grigor Iliev, fixes #19)
1057 schoenebeck 660 - fixed LSCP event "CHANNEL_INFO" notification
1058 schoenebeck 670 (e.g. did not notify on volume changes or MIDI program change events)
1059 schoenebeck 609
1060 schoenebeck 668 * linuxsampler application:
1061     - added command line parameters --lscp-addr and --lscp-port to override
1062     default IP address and port of LSCP server
1063    
1064 schoenebeck 579 Version 0.3.1 (24 May 2005)
1065    
1066     * initial release
