* 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 |
|
|
10 |
|
* general changes: |
11 |
|
- bugfix: on some POSIX systems instrument editor plugins refused to |
12 |
|
load as we used a non-portable Linux specific struct field |
13 |
|
(fixes bug #70, patch by Ronald Baljeu) |
14 |
|
- fixed endless loop which occured when loading an instrument editor |
15 |
|
plugin DLL on Windows systems failed |
16 |
|
- fixed memory leaks that occurred when liblinuxsampler was unloaded |
17 |
|
- optimized the SynchronizedConfig class so it doesn't wait |
18 |
|
unnecessarily long after an update |
19 |
|
- added support for notifying instrument editors on note-on / note-off |
20 |
|
events (e.g. to highlight the pressed keys on the virtual keyboard |
21 |
|
of gigedit) |
22 |
|
- added support for triggering notes by instrument editors (see above) |
23 |
|
- be verbose on DLL load errors (on Linux) |
24 |
|
- fixed di-harmonic triangle LFO implementation (this LFO implementation |
25 |
|
is only used by very few systems, most pick the int math |
26 |
|
implementation, which is usually faster) |
27 |
|
- fixes for audio drivers with varying buffer sizes |
28 |
|
- experimental support for running LinuxSampler as a DSSI, LV2 and |
29 |
|
VST plugin |
30 |
|
- notification events for stream/voice count statistics are now sent |
31 |
|
only when there are actual changes |
32 |
|
- added memory ordering constraints to improve stability on |
33 |
|
multi-core and multi-cpu systems |
34 |
|
|
35 |
|
* audio driver: |
36 |
|
- removed the nonsense audio channel constraint (which was hard coded to |
37 |
|
max. 100 audio channels) for most audio drivers |
38 |
|
- JACK audio driver did not offer a device parameter "SAMPLERATE" as |
39 |
|
opposed to the LSCP specs |
40 |
|
- bugfix: the SAMPLERATE parameter of some drivers (e.g. JACK) |
41 |
|
reflected the wrong value |
42 |
|
- fixed a memory management bug in ASIO driver |
43 |
|
- Makefile fix: JACK_CFLAGS wasn't used |
44 |
|
- JACK: use jack_client_open instead of the deprecated |
45 |
|
jack_client_new |
46 |
|
|
47 |
|
* MIDI driver: |
48 |
|
- added JACK MIDI driver |
49 |
|
- dispatch bank select as ordinary CC as well, the user might seriously |
50 |
|
want to (mis)use it for some purpose ("fixed" in all current MIDI |
51 |
|
input drivers: ALSA, CoreMIDI, JACK, MidiShare, MME) |
52 |
|
|
53 |
|
* instruments database: |
54 |
|
- avoid time consuming samples scanning when adding instruments |
55 |
|
to the instruments database |
56 |
|
- added support for handling lost files in the instruments database |
57 |
|
- Implemented option for adding instruments in separate directories |
58 |
|
in the instruments database |
59 |
|
(patch by Chris Cherrett & Andrew Williams, a bit adjusted) |
60 |
|
|
61 |
|
* Gigasampler format engine: |
62 |
|
- fixed a memory leak that could happen when a channel was deleted |
63 |
|
while notes were playing |
64 |
|
- made it possible to load an instrument even if the audio thread |
65 |
|
isn't running |
66 |
|
- added partial support for the "Controller Triggered" MIDI rule, |
67 |
|
enough for piano gigs with pedal noise samples |
68 |
|
- minor fix: only mark FX sends as being modified if really the |
69 |
|
respective FX send MIDI controller was used |
70 |
|
- added support for GM global device volume SysEx message |
71 |
|
(can be selected at compile time to either apply globally to the |
72 |
|
whole sampler [default] or only to the sampler channels that are |
73 |
|
connected to the respective MIDI input port the SysEx message arrived |
74 |
|
on) |
75 |
|
- bugfix: notes triggered at position 0 in the audio buffer were |
76 |
|
sometimes wrongly killed in the same buffer, causing no sound to |
77 |
|
be played |
78 |
|
- added support for chromatic / drumkit mode Roland GS Sysex message |
79 |
|
which is usally used to switch a part between chromatic sounds and |
80 |
|
drumkit sounds (as opposed to their common default setting of MIDI |
81 |
|
part 10 being a drumkit part and all other ones chromatic parts), in |
82 |
|
LS however one can switch between the first 16 MIDI instrument maps |
83 |
|
defined for the sampler |
84 |
|
- made it possible to create multiple sample channels even if the |
85 |
|
audio thread isn't running |
86 |
|
|
87 |
|
* LSCP server: |
88 |
|
- added new LSCP event "CHANNEL_MIDI" which can be used by frontends to |
89 |
|
react on MIDI data arriving on certain sampler channels (so far only |
90 |
|
Note-On and Note-Off events are sent via this LSCP event) |
91 |
|
- added new LSCP event "DEVICE_MIDI" which can be used by frontends to |
92 |
|
react on MIDI data arriving on certain MIDI input devices (so far only |
93 |
|
Note-On and Note-Off events are sent via this LSCP event) |
94 |
|
- added new LSCP commands: FIND LOST DB_INSTRUMENT_FILES and |
95 |
|
SET DB_INSTRUMENT FILE_PATH |
96 |
|
- added new LSCP command: SEND CHANNEL MIDI_DATA which can be used by |
97 |
|
frontends to send MIDI messages to specific sampler channel |
98 |
|
- added two additional fields to GET FILE INSTRUMENT INFO command - |
99 |
|
KEY_BINDINGS and KEYSWITCH_BINDINGS |
100 |
|
- bugfix: the bank number provided by MIDI_INSTRUMENT_INFO notifications |
101 |
|
was incorrect |
102 |
|
- Optimized the retrieval of the MIDI instrument mappings |
103 |
|
|
104 |
|
* Bug fixes: |
105 |
|
- fixed a crash which occurs when removing a sampler channel waiting |
106 |
|
to start instrument loading after another channel |
107 |
