* packaging changes: |
4 |
|
- autoconf bugfix: the PKG_CONFIG variable wasn't initialized properly, |
5 |
|
causing e.g. the libgig test to fail when |
6 |
|
"./configure --disable-jack-driver" was used |
7 |
|
(patch by Alexis Ballier) |
8 |
|
- fixed compilation with gcc 4.3 |
9 |
|
- fixes for building on OS X (thanks to Ebrahim Mayat for testing) |
10 |
|
- fixed configure so it detects x86_64 (#107) |
11 |
|
- fixes for building with newer MinGW versions |
12 |
|
- fix for building with bison 2.4 (#111) |
13 |
|
- fixed building with libgig installed in a non-standard directory |
14 |
|
|
15 |
|
* general changes: |
16 |
|
- bugfix: on some POSIX systems instrument editor plugins refused to |
17 |
|
load as we used a non-portable Linux specific struct field |
18 |
|
(fixes bug #70, patch by Ronald Baljeu) |
19 |
|
- fixed endless loop which occured when loading an instrument editor |
20 |
|
plugin DLL on Windows systems failed |
21 |
|
- fixed memory leaks that occurred when liblinuxsampler was unloaded |
22 |
|
- optimized the SynchronizedConfig class so it doesn't wait |
23 |
|
unnecessarily long after an update |
24 |
|
- added support for notifying instrument editors on note-on / note-off |
25 |
|
events (e.g. to highlight the pressed keys on the virtual keyboard |
26 |
|
of gigedit) |
27 |
|
- added support for triggering notes by instrument editors (see above) |
28 |
|
- be verbose on DLL load errors (on Linux) |
29 |
|
- fixed di-harmonic triangle LFO implementation (this LFO implementation |
30 |
|
is only used by very few systems, most pick the int math |
31 |
|
implementation, which is usually faster) |
32 |
|
- fixes for audio drivers with varying buffer sizes |
33 |
|
- experimental support for running LinuxSampler as a DSSI, LV2 and |
34 |
|
VST plugin |
35 |
|
- notification events for stream/voice count statistics are now sent |
36 |
|
only when there are actual changes |
37 |
|
- added memory ordering constraints to improve stability on |
38 |
|
multi-core and multi-cpu systems |
39 |
|
- maximum voices and disk streams can now be altered at runtime |
40 |
|
- fixed CPU feature detection on x86_64 (maybe fixes #108) |
41 |
|
- automatic stacktrace mechanism is now turned off by default and can |
42 |
|
be switched on by command line option "--stacktrace" (the automatic |
43 |
|
stacktrace mechanism seems to be broken on most systems at the moment) |
44 |
|
|
45 |
|
* audio driver: |
46 |
|
- removed the nonsense audio channel constraint (which was hard coded to |
47 |
|
max. 100 audio channels) for most audio drivers |
48 |
|
- JACK audio driver did not offer a device parameter "SAMPLERATE" as |
49 |
|
opposed to the LSCP specs |
50 |
|
- bugfix: the SAMPLERATE parameter of some drivers (e.g. JACK) |
51 |
|
reflected the wrong value |
52 |
|
- fixed a memory management bug in ASIO driver |
53 |
|
- Makefile fix: JACK_CFLAGS wasn't used |
54 |
|
- JACK: use jack_client_open instead of the deprecated |
55 |
|
jack_client_new |
56 |
|
- added (experimental) CoreAudio driver |
57 |
|
|
58 |
|
* MIDI driver: |
59 |
|
- added JACK MIDI driver |
60 |
|
- dispatch bank select as ordinary CC as well, the user might seriously |
61 |
|
want to (mis)use it for some purpose ("fixed" in all current MIDI |
62 |
|
input drivers: ALSA, CoreMIDI, JACK, MidiShare, MME) |
63 |
|
|
64 |
|
* instruments database: |
65 |
|
- avoid time consuming samples scanning when adding instruments |
66 |
|
to the instruments database |
67 |
|
- added support for handling lost files in the instruments database |
68 |
|
- Implemented option for adding instruments in separate directories |
69 |
|
in the instruments database |
70 |
|
(patch by Chris Cherrett & Andrew Williams, a bit adjusted) |
71 |
|
|
72 |
|
* Gigasampler format engine: |
73 |
|
- fixed a memory leak that could happen when a channel was deleted |
74 |
|
while notes were playing |
75 |
|
- made it possible to load an instrument even if the audio thread |
76 |
|
isn't running |
77 |
|
- added partial support for the "Controller Triggered" MIDI rule, |
78 |
|
enough for piano gigs with pedal noise samples |
79 |
|
- minor fix: only mark FX sends as being modified if really the |
80 |
|
respective FX send MIDI controller was used |
81 |
|
- added support for GM global device volume SysEx message |
82 |
|
(can be selected at compile time to either apply globally to the |
83 |
|
whole sampler [default] or only to the sampler channels that are |
84 |
|
connected to the respective MIDI input port the SysEx message arrived |
85 |
|
on) |
86 |
|
- bugfix: notes triggered at position 0 in the audio buffer were |
87 |
|
sometimes wrongly killed in the same buffer, causing no sound to |
88 |
|
be played |
89 |
|
- added support for chromatic / drumkit mode Roland GS Sysex message |
90 |
|
which is usally used to switch a part between chromatic sounds and |
91 |
|
drumkit sounds (as opposed to their common default setting of MIDI |
92 |
|
part 10 being a drumkit part and all other ones chromatic parts), in |
93 |
|
LS however one can switch between the first 16 MIDI instrument maps |
94 |
|
defined for the sampler |
95 |
|
- made it possible to create multiple sample channels even if the |
96 |
|
audio thread isn't running |
97 |
|
- fixed crash when removing channel with active voices (#116) |
98 |
|
- bugfix: on sample reference changes (instrument editor), only |
99 |
|
un-cache the respective sample if it's really not used by any |
100 |
|
sampler engine anymore |
101 |
|
- re-cache samples in case they were changed by an instrument editor, |
102 |
|
e.g. when a sample was added while playing (#82) |
103 |
|
- fixed hanging notes which occured when note-off event had the exact |
104 |
|
same time stamp as the voice's note-on event and occured both in the |
105 |
|
same audio fragment cycle (fixes bug #112) |
106 |
|
|
107 |
|
* LSCP server: |
108 |
|
- added new LSCP event "CHANNEL_MIDI" which can be used by frontends to |
109 |
|
react on MIDI data arriving on certain sampler channels (so far only |
110 |
|
Note-On and Note-Off events are sent via this LSCP event) |
111 |
|
- added new LSCP event "DEVICE_MIDI" which can be used by frontends to |
112 |
|
react on MIDI data arriving on certain MIDI input devices (so far only |
113 |
|
Note-On and Note-Off events are sent via this LSCP event) |
114 |
|
- added new LSCP commands: FIND LOST DB_INSTRUMENT_FILES and |
115 |
|
SET DB_INSTRUMENT FILE_PATH |
116 |
|
- added new LSCP command: SEND CHANNEL MIDI_DATA which can be used by |
117 |
|
frontends to send MIDI messages to specific sampler channel |
118 |
|
- added two additional fields to GET FILE INSTRUMENT INFO command - |
119 |
|
KEY_BINDINGS and KEYSWITCH_BINDINGS |
120 |
|
- bugfix: the bank number provided by MIDI_INSTRUMENT_INFO notifications |
121 |
|
was incorrect |
122 |
|
- Optimized the retrieval of the MIDI instrument mappings |
123 |
|
- added new LSCP command "SET VOICES" to globally alter the maximum |
124 |
|
amount of voices, added new LSCP event "GLOBAL_INFO:VOICES" which will |
125 |
|
be triggered respectively |
126 |
|
- added new LSCP command "SET STREAMS" to globally alter the maximum |
127 |
|
amount of disk streams, added new LSCP event "GLOBAL_INFO:STREAMS" |
128 |
|
which will be triggered respectively |
129 |
|
- bugfix: retry if "select" returns EINTR (this fixes a crash when |
130 |
|
a gigedit file dialog is opened) |
131 |
|
- close all connections when LSCPServer is deleted |
132 |
|
|
133 |
|
* Bug fixes: |
134 |
|
- fixed a crash which occurs when removing a sampler channel waiting |
135 |
|
to start instrument loading after another channel |
136 |
|
- fixed a crash which occurs when removing a sampler channel with |
137 |
|
instrument loading in progress (bug #113) |
138 |
|
- fixed termination caused by uncaught exception when adding MIDI |
139 |
|
instrument with PERSISTENT load mode |
140 |
|
- fixed possible iterator invalidations when resetting the sampler |
141 |
|
- fixed memory leaks when issuing the following LSCP commands: |
142 |
|
GET AUDIO_OUTPUT_DRIVER INFO |
143 |
|
GET AUDIO_OUTPUT_DRIVER_PARAMETER INFO |
144 |
|
GET MIDI_INPUT_DRIVER INFO |
145 |
|
GET MIDI_INPUT_DRIVER_PARAMETER INFO |
146 |
|
- fixed possible compilation error when sqlite is not present |
147 |
|
- fixed orphaned pointers when setting maximum voices limit (bug #118) |
148 |
|
- fixed crash when changing the audio output device of a sampler |
149 |
|
channel with loaded instrument and start playing notes |
150 |
|
- fixed endless loop in Engine::SuspendAll() (bug #120) |

Version 0.5.1 (6 December 2007) |
154 |
|
|
155 |
|
* packaging changes: |
156 |
|
- added autoconf checks for pthread library |
157 |
|
- added autoconf check for pthread bug found on certain NPTL-enabled |
158 |
|
glibc versions (see Gentoo bug report #194076) |
159 |
|
- added autoconf checks for MS Windows |
160 |
|
|
161 |
|
* general changes: |
162 |
|
- bugfix: the thread used by an editor plugin didn't die when the |
163 |
|
editor closed |
164 |
|
- bugfix: Ringbuffer.h: fill_write_space_with_null() did not zero |
165 |
|
out all the space. operator--() did not apply size_mask after |
166 |
|
decrementing the read_ptr. DEFAULT_WRAP_ELEMENTS set to 0 in |
167 |
|
order to avoid problems with the _NonVolatileReader functions. |
168 |
|
- bugfix: Stream.h: added a missing divide by BytesPerSample in |
169 |
|
GetWriteSpace(). Since this function is currently only used in |
170 |
|
the stream's qsort() compare function, it didn't trigger any |
171 |
|
bugs. |
172 |
|
- Resampler.h, Synthesizer.h: cubic interpolation now works in |
173 |
|
24bit mode too. Faster method to read 24bit words on little |
174 |
|
endian machines (x86): replaced 3 byte reads + shifts with a 1 |
175 |
|
unaligned 32bit read and shift |
176 |
|
- experimental support for MS Windows (MIDI input via MME, AUDIO |
177 |
|
output via ASIO) |
178 |
|
- made handling of SIGINT signal (Ctrl-C) a bit more robust |
179 |
|
- support for monitoring the total number of active disk streams |
180 |
|
(new LSCP commands: GET TOTAL_STREAM_COUNT, |
181 |
|
SUBSCRIBE TOTAL_STREAM_COUNT, UNSUBSCRIBE TOTAL_STREAM_COUNT) |
182 |
|
|
183 |
|
* AUDIO driver: |
184 |
|
- added Windows ASIO low latency audio driver |
185 |
|
|
186 |
|
* MIDI driver: |
187 |
|
- added MME Windows MIDI driver |
188 |
|
|
189 |
|
* LSCP server: |
190 |
|
- added support for Windows style path / filenames, however with |
191 |
|
forward slash path separators instead of backslash |
192 |
|
(i.e. "C:/foo/bar.gig") |
193 |
|
- allow naughty liblscp to send non-string device parameters within |
194 |
|
apostrophes as well |
195 |
|
- added new LSCP commands: "GET FILE INSTRUMENTS <file>", |
196 |
|
"LIST FILE INSTRUMENTS <file>" and |
197 |
|
"GET FILE INSTRUMENT INFO <file> <index>" for retrieving informations |
198 |
|
about an arbitrary instrument file on the system where the sampler is |
199 |
|
running on |
200 |
|
|
201 |
|
Version 0.5.0 (15 October 2007) |
202 |
|
|
203 |
|
* packaging changes: |
204 |
|
- config.h is not going to be installed along with liblinuxsampler's |
205 |
|
API header files anymore |
206 |
|
- only the API relevant header (and source) files will be exported to |
207 |
|
the Doxygen API documentation (explicitly listed in Doxyfile.in) |
208 |
|
- added completely new XCode project files for Mac OSX which is now |
209 |
|
capable to execute our autoconf environment, thus no need anymore |
210 |
|
to maintain the compile time configuration file (osx/version.h) for |
211 |
|
OSX manually (patch by Toshi Nagata) |
212 |
|
- fixed buggy boolean --enable-foo / --disable-foo configure script |
213 |
|
parameters |
214 |
|
- global.h now only covers global definitions that are needed for the |
215 |
|
C++ API header files, all implementation internal global definitions |
216 |
|
are now in global_private.h |
217 |
|
- atomic.h is not exposed to the C++ API anymore |
218 |
|
- no need to include config.h anymore for using LS's API header files |
219 |
|
- fixed warnings in API doc generation |
220 |

250 |
|
(patch by Toshi Nagata) |
251 |
|
- implemented instruments database |
252 |
|
- added support for escape sequences to the instruments database |
253 |
|
- added highly experimental support for on-the-fly instrument editing |
254 |
|
within the sampler's process (by using instrument editor plugins), |
255 |
|
you'll notice the new "Registered instrument editors:" message on |
256 |
|
startup, added a new LSCP command: |
257 |
|
"EDIT CHANNEL INSTRUMENT <sampler-channel>" |
258 |
|
to spawn a matching instrument editor for the instrument on the |
259 |
|
given sampler channel, the plugin path can be overridden at compile |
260 |
|
time with ./configure --enable-plugin-dir=/some/dir |
261 |
|
- added experimental code for synchronizing instrument editors hosted |
262 |
|
in the sampler's process to safely edit instruments while playing |
263 |
|
without a crash (hopefully) by either suspending single regions |
264 |
|
wherever possible or if unavoidable whole engine(s) |
265 |
|
- fixed several issues in fundamental "Thread" class: set scheduling |
266 |
|
policy and priority on thread level, set a minimum stack size for |
267 |
|
thread (TODO: a reasonable value yet to be tested), bugfix: non-RT |
268 |
|
threads simply inherited properties of starting thread instead of |
269 |
|
setting their own policy and priority |
270 |
|
- minor fix in our automatic stack trace mechanism on crashes, the |
271 |
|
main process did not wait for the stack trace process to finish |
272 |
|
its output |
273 |
|
- fixed some minor memory leaks |
274 |
|
- reenabled assembly features support, at the moment only for |
275 |
|
enabling a fast denormal FPU mode (x86 platforms supporting SSE2) |
276 |
|
- minor assembly fix in x86 features detection (don't use the PIC |
277 |
|
register, to avoid relocations in the text segment at runtime) |
278 |
|
- POSIX callback functions of Thread.h are hidden |
279 |
|
|

297 |
|
- handle MIDI coarse tuning messages (MIDI RPN #0 MSB #2 LSB) |
298 |
|
- EG fine tuning: when attack is zero the EG starts at a level |
299 |
|
above max sustain level, which means that there is a decay phase |
300 |
|
even if sustain is 100% |
301 |
|
- more EG fixes: the level could sometimes go below zero and cause |
302 |
|
noises or crashes |
303 |
|
- minor fix of EGDecay (patch by Toshi Nagata) |
304 |
|
- fixed compiler error when --enable-override-filter-type was |
305 |
|
supplied to the configure script (fixes #46) |
306 |
|
- disk thread: queue sizes are now proportional to CONFIG_MAX_STREAMS |
307 |
|
instead of a fix value |
308 |
|
- behavior fix: on MIDI CC# 65 (portamento on / off), 126 (mono mode), |
309 |
|
127 (solo mode) only kill voices if the respective mode really |
310 |
|
changed |
311 |
|
|
312 |
|
* LSCP server: |
313 |
|
- fixed compile time error for old Bison versions |
314 |
|
(i.e. v1.28 found on MacOS 10.4, patch by Toshi Nagata) |
315 |
|
- parser now supports extended ASCII character set |
316 |
|
(up to ASCII code 255, i.e. includes now umlauts and accents) |
317 |
|
- filename arguments in LSCP commands now allow to use escape |
318 |
|
sequences, that is directly literal as one of: \', \", \\, \n, \r, |
319 |
|
\f, \t, \v, or as octal ASCII code value like \132, or as hex ASCII |
320 |
|
code value like \xf2) (fixes bug #24) |
321 |
|
- the following LSCP commands now also support escape sequences for at |
322 |
|
least one of their text-based parameters (i.e. name, description): |
323 |
|
"ADD MIDI_INSTRUMENT_MAP", "MAP MIDI_INSTRUMENT", |
324 |
|
"SET MIDI_INSTRUMENT_MAP NAME", "SET FX_SEND NAME", "CREATE FX_SEND", |
325 |
|
"SET DB_INSTRUMENT_DIRECTORY NAME", |
326 |
|
"SET DB_INSTRUMENT_DIRECTORY DESCRIPTION", "SET DB_INSTRUMENT NAME", |
327 |
|
"SET DB_INSTRUMENT DESCRIPTION", "FIND DB_INSTRUMENTS", |
328 |
|
"FIND DB_INSTRUMENT_DIRECTORIES" |
329 |
|
- returns verbose syntax errors (line and column where syntax error |
330 |
|
occured, the unexpected character and the actually expected, possible |
331 |
|
character(s), the latter only if less than 5 possibilities) |
332 |
|
- made sure that LSCP syntax is not affected by gigedit locale |
333 |
|
settings |
334 |
|
- bugfix regarding strings parameter lists: all comma separated lists |
335 |
|
of strings were treated as being one string containing commas |
336 |

347 |
|
- The previous bindings were not been disconnected when altering |
348 |
|
the ALSA_SEQ_BINDINGS parameter. Introduced a NONE keyword for |
349 |
|
unsubscribing from all bindings (e.g. ALSA_SEQ_BINDINGS=NONE). |
