# Line 1  Line 1 
1  Version CVS HEAD (?)  Version SVN trunk (?)
2    
3      * SFZ format engine:
4        - added support for <global>, <master> and #define (patch by Alby M)
5    
6      * general changes:
7        - fixed printf type errors (mostly in debug messages)
8        - use unique_ptr instead of auto_ptr when building with C++11
9        - Added RTAVLTree class which is a real-time safe ordered multi-map, thus
10          allowing to sort data efficiently in real-time safe manner.
11        - RTList class: added methods for moving/inserting elements to arbitrary
12          position within a list.
13        - RTList class: added method fromPtr() for creating an Iterator object from
14          a raw element pointer.
15        - Attempt to partly fix resetting engine channels vs. resetting engine, an
16          overall cleanup of the Reset*(), ConnectAudioDevice(),
17          DisconnectAudioDevice() API methods would still be desirable though,
18          because the current situation is still inconsistent and error prone.
19        - Active voices are now internally grouped to "Note" objects, instead of
20          being directly assigned to a keyboard key. This allows more fine graded
21          processing of voices, which is i.e. required for certain instrument
22          script features.
23        - Fix: Release trigger voices were not spawned on sustain pedal up
24          (CC #64) events.
25        - Fix: Release trigger voices can now also distinguish correctly between
26          note-off and sustain pedal up events.
27        - All engines: Increased ramp speed of volume smoother and pan smoother
28          (while slow rate of crossfade smoother is preserved) to allow quick
29          volume and pan changes by instrument scripts for instance.
30    
31      * packaging changes:
32        - removed unnecessary dependency to libuuid
33          (originated by libgig's usage of it)
34        - Automake: set environment variable GCC_COLORS=auto to allow GCC to
35          auto detect whether it (sh/c)ould output its messages in color.
36    
37      * Real-time instrument scripts:
38        - Implemented scheduler for delayed MIDI events and for suspended scripts.
39        - Built-in script function "wait()": implemented support for function's
40          "duration-us" argument, thus scripts using this function are now
41          correctly resumed after the requested amount of microseconds.
42        - Built-in script function "play_note()": implemented support for
43          function's "duration-us" argument, thus notes triggered with this
44          argument are now correctly released after the requested amount of
45          microseconds.
46        - Fix: script events were not cleared when engine channel was reset,
47          potentially causing undefined behavior.
48        - Fixed crash which happened when trying to reference an undeclared
49          variable.
50        - Built-in script function "play_note()": Added support for passing
51          special value -1 for "duration-us" argument, which will cause the
52          triggered note to be released once the original note was released.
53        - Instrument script classes now exported with the liblinuxsampler C++ API.
54        - Added new API method ScriptVM::syntaxHighlighting() which provides
55          a convenient syntax highlighting backend for external instrument
56          script editor applications.
57        - Added new C++ API class "ScriptVMFactory".
58        - Extended parser issues to provide not only first line and first
59          column, but also last line and last column of issue (thus marking
60          the precise span of the issue within the source code).
61        - Reload script automatically after being modified by an instrument
62          editor.
63        - NKSP language grammar correction: allow empty event handler bodies
64          like "on note end on".
65        - Implemented built-in script function "change_vol()".
66        - Implemented built-in script function "change_tune()".
67        - Implemented built-in script function "change_pan()".
68        - Implemented built-in script function "change_cutoff()".
69        - Implemented built-in script function "change_reso()".
70        - Implemented built-in script function "event_status()".
71        - Added built-in script constants "$EVENT_STATUS_INACTIVE" and
72          "$EVENT_STATUS_NOTE_QUEUE" both for being used as flags for
73          "event_status()" function.
74        - NKSP language: Added support for bitwise operators ".or.", ".and."
75          and ".not.".
76        - NKSP language scanner: Fixed IDs matching to require at least one
77          character (i.e. when matching function names or variable names).
78        - NKSP language scanner: disabled unusued rules.
79        - Fixed behavior of play_note() and note_off() functions which must
80          be distinguished engine internally from "real" MIDI note on/off
81          events in order to avoid misbehaviors like hanging notes.
82        - Implemented built-in script variable "$KSP_TIMER".
83        - Implemented built-in script variable "$NKSP_REAL_TIMER".
84        - Implemented built-in script variable "$NKSP_PERF_TIMER".
85        - Implemented built-in script variable "$ENGINE_UPTIME".
86        - Implemented built-in script function "inc()".
87        - Implemented built-in script function "dec()".
88        - NKSP language fix: division expressions were evaluated too often.
89        - NKSP language fix: string concatenation operator was right
90          associative instead of left (to right).
91        - NKSP language correction: allow empty statements in entire language
92          (i.e. "if end if").
93        - Implemented built-in script function "stop_wait()".
94        - Implemented built-in script variable "$NI_CALLBACK_ID".
95        - Implemented built-in script variable "$NI_CALLBACK_TYPE".
96        - Implemented built-in script variable "$NKSP_IGNORE_WAIT".
97        - Added support for read-only built-in variables (respectively
98          handled by the script parser).
99        - Added built-in script constant "$NI_CB_TYPE_INIT".
100        - Added built-in script constant "$NI_CB_TYPE_NOTE".
101        - Added built-in script constant "$NI_CB_TYPE_RELEASE".
102        - Added built-in script constant "$NI_CB_TYPE_CONTROLLER".
103        - NKSP Language: Added support for user defined script functions.
104        - Implemented built-in script function "change_attack()".
105        - Implemented built-in script function "change_decay()".
106        - Implemented built-in script function "change_release()".
107        - Fixed all change_*() built-in script functions to apply their
108          synthesis parameter changes immediately in case the respective note
109          was triggered at the same time, instead of scheduling the parameter
110          change, especially because it would cause some parameter types's
111          changes either to be ramped (i.e. change_vol()) or other types even
112          to have not effect at all (i.e. change_attack()).
113    
114    Version 2.0.0 (15 July 2015)
115    
116      * packaging changes:

122        - removed empty directories left from the cvs to svn migration
123        - fixed compilation with gcc 4.6.1
124        - another "make dist" fix, for the LV2 plugin
125        - made --enable-pthread-testcancel default on Mac OS X
126        - minor Makefile fix for building lscpparser when build and source
127          directories are separate
128        - Mac OS X: made it possible to specify plugin installation dir to
129          configure
130        - Mac OS X: Makefile fix for the install-strip target
131        - fixed compilation with gcc 4.7
132        - fixed configure script error with old autoconf versions

147        - fixed build error on newer MinGW
148        - support building with older jack versions
149        - support building with spaces in vst sdk path
150        - enabled automake 'subdir-objects' option and moved external
151          source references (vst, au, asio) from makefiles to cpp files,
152          in order to get rid of warnings from automake 1.14
153    
154      * general changes:
155        - Refactoring: moved the independent code from
156          the Gigasampler format engine to base classes
157        - command line option '--profile' is currently disabled, since the
158          respective profiling code is currently broken
159        - Introduced support for optional environment variable
160          "LINUXSAMPLER_PLUGIN_DIR" which allows to override the directory
161          where the sampler shall look for instrument editor plugins
162          (patch by Luis Garrido, slightly modified).
163        - implemented Roland GS NRPN 1ArrH which allows to set volume per note
164        - implemented Roland GS NRPN 1CrrH which allows to set pan per note
165        - implemented Roland GS NRPN 1DrrH which allows to set reverb send per
166          note (in this implementation of the sampler its simply hard routed to
167          the 1st effect send of the sampler channel, no matter what the actual
168          effect type is)
169        - implemented Roland GS NRPN 1ErrH which allows to set chorus send per
170          note (in this implementation of the sampler its simply hard routed to
171          the 2nd effect send of the sampler channel, no matter what the actual
172          effect type is)
173        - implemented support for internal LADSPA effects
174        - raised limit of program change queue from 100 to 512
175          (as suggested by Alex Stone)
176        - implemented sine LFO, pulse LFO and saw LFO
177        - experimental support for per voice equalization
178        - added command line option --exec-after-init
179        - Introduced new C++ API method:
180          EngineChannel::InstrumentFileName(int index)
181          allowing to retrieve the whole list of files used for the loaded
182          instrument on an engine channel (a.k.a. part). Some GigaStudio
183          instruments for example are splitted over several files like
184          "Foo.gig", "Foo.gx01", "Foo.gx02", ...
185        - Added new C++ API method Sampler::GetGlobalMaxVoices().
186        - Added new C++ API method Sampler::GetGlobalMaxStreams().
187        - Added new C++ API method Sampler::SetGlobalMaxVoices().
188        - Added new C++ API method Sampler::SetGlobalMaxStreams().
189        - Various "const" and "restrict" optimizations.
190        - all engines: add pan CC value to instrument pan parameter before
191          applying panning, instead of using two separate pan functions in
192          series (#182)
193        - added a lock guard class for exception safe mutex handling and
194          used it everywhere appropriate
195        - Immediately apply scale tuning changes to active voices.
196        - Exposed scale tuning to C++ API (along to the already existing standard
197          SysEx way).
198        - lsatomic.h fixes: seq_cst load and store were suboptimal for x86
199          and broken for ppc64. (Seq_cst loads and stores are actually not
200          used in LS, so the bug wasn't noticable.)
201        - lsatomic.h: added ARMv7 support
202        - Added support for multiple MIDI input ports per sampler channel (and
203          added various new C++ methods for this new feature / design change, old
204          C++ API methods for managing SamplerChannel's MIDI inputs are now marked
205          as deprecated but are still there and should provide full behavior
206          backward compatibility).
207        - AbstractEngine::GSChecksum(): don't allocate memory on the stack (was
208          unsafe and caused compilation error with clang 2.x).
209        - Bugfix: only process the latest MIDI program change event.
210        - Introducing the LSCP shell, which provides convenient control of the
211          sampler from the command line by providing LSCP aware features.
212        - VirtualMidiDevice: Added support for program change.
213        - VirtualMidiDevice: Added support for bank select (MSB & LSB).
214        - VirtualMidiDevice: Added support for pitch bend.
215        - Aftertouch: extended API to explicitly handle channel pressure and
216          polyphonic key pressure events (so far polyphonic pressure was not
217          supported at all, and channel pressure was rerouted as CC128 but not
218          used so far).
219        - Added initial support for real-time instrument scripts. The script VM
220          code is shared by all sampler engine implemementations, however only the
221          gig file format currently provides support for storing instrument scripts
222          (as LinuxSampler extension to the original GigaStudio 4 format).
223    
224      * Gigasampler format engine:
225        - implemented the "round robin keyboard" dimension
226        - fixed round robin and random dimensions for cases when number of
227          dimension zones is not a power of two
228        - made round robin use a counter for each region instead of each
229          key
230        - bugfix: pitch LFO controller "internal+aftertouch" was broken
231        - bugfix: filter keyboard tracking was broken
232        - filter performance fix (an unnecessary copy was made of the
233          filter parameters in each sub fragment)
234        - handle special case when pan parameter in gig file has max or
235          min value
236        - Exclusive Groups: don't ever stop voices of the same note,
237          doesn't sound naturally with a drumkit
238        - fixed EG1 modulation when attack or release is zero
239        - Fixed support for 'aftertouch' attenuation controller.
240        - Fixed crash that happened with velocity split sounds under certain
241          conditions (see also previous commit on libgig).

243    
244      * SFZ format engine:
245        - Initial implementation (not usable yet)

250        - added support for trigger=first, trigger=legato and sw_previous
251        - allow non-numerical key values ("C#4" for example)
252        - "key" opcode now sets pitch_keycenter too
253        - fixed error when unloading instrument with same sample used by
254          multiple regions

260        - added v1 LFO opcodes to parser (no support in engine yet)
261        - added support for amp_veltrack and amp_velcurve_N
262        - fine-tuned the default velocity curve
263        - added support for transpose
264        - fixed crash when using sw_down/up
265        - improved logic for sw_lokey/hikey/up/down/last
266        - added more v1 aliases to parser
267        - reduced memory usage for sfz data
268        - RT-safeness: avoid malloc in audio thread
269        - fixed a bug that could cause voice stealing to fail
270        - optimized sample lookup
271        - improved support for exclusive groups (group, off_by and

274        - added support for loop_mode=one_shot
275        - fixed playback of 16 bit wav files on big endian CPUs
276        - added support for Ogg Vorbis sample files
277        - use loop markers from sample file if loop_start and loop_end are
278          not set in sfz file
279        - implemeted filters. Filter types: lowpass, bandpass, bandreject

391          used
392        - bugfix: looping was disabled if loop_start was set to 0
393        - allow regions with end=-1 to turn off other regions using the

406        - bugfix: line numbers in error messages were wrong after "#include"
407        - added support for float and 32 bit sample files
408    
409      * SoundFont format engine:

419        - AU bugfix: failed to destroy its audio/MIDI devices
420        - Listen to all interfaces on Mac OS X (INADDR_ANY)
421        - VST bugfix: If the host called resume() before and after
422          changing sample rate or block size, the number of channels was
423          incorrectly set to two. This caused silence in Cubase 5.
424        - save engine type (gig, sfz or sf2) in plugin state
425        - VST: when opening Fantasia, look for both 32 and 64 bit Java on
426          64 bit Windows
427        - AU: changed number of output channels from one stereo to 16
428          stereo

442        - VST: fixed crashes on Linux Ardour and EnergyXT
443        - DSSI bugfix: it wasn't possible to change engine type. The MIDI

456        - Changed instrument editor plugin interface, providing additional
457          informations like the EngineChannel for which the instrument editor was
458          spawned for. This allows the instrument editors to interact more actively
459          with the sampler.
460    
461      * MIDI driver:
462        - ALSA MIDI driver supports now "NAME" device parameter, for overriding
463          the ALSA sequencer client name

465          there is no reason for this limit
466        - MME: fixed memory handling bug found with cppcheck
467        - MME: removed compiler warning
468        - CoreMIDI: implemented driver specific port parameter "CORE_MIDI_BINDINGS",
469          which allows to retrieve the list of CoreMIDI clients / ports and to connect
470          to them a la JACK, via the usual sampler APIs
471        - CoreMIDI: added driver specific port parameter "AUTO_BIND", if enabled
472          the driver will automatically connect to other CoreMIDI clients' ports

479        - Implemented missing handling of MIDI "running status".
480        - CoreMIDI fix: a MIDIPacket can contain more than one event per packet.
481        - MME bugfix: driver wasn't closed properly
482        - CoreMIDI: automatically connect to all input sources by default (driver
483          parameter "AUTO_BIND").
484        - CoreMIDI: fixed auto bind feature to CoreMIDI ports that go online
485        - CoreMIDI: fixed minor memory leak
486    
487      * audio driver:
488        - ASIO driver fixes for newer gcc versions (fix from PortAudio)
489        - JACK audio: react on sample rate changes.
490        - JACK audio: react on buffer size changes.

492          RT context.
493        - ASIO driver: removed compiler warnings
494        - CoreAudio: fixed minor error handling bug
495        - ASIO driver: be more verbose when no ASIO card could be found (fixes #203)

610        - bugfix: calling SET VOICES (which Fantasia does on start and
611          refresh) could cause instruments to be unloaded
612        - Mac OS X: fixed name collision of enum in EffectControl and
613          wrong name of destructor in AudioOutputDeviceCoreAudio.cpp
614        - Mac OS X: fixed hanging threads

617        - Fixed possible crashes due to corrupted MIDI/audio device list
618          after MIDI/audio device creation failure
619        - When creating MIDI instrument map entries with "PERSISTENT" type, the
620          instruments were uselessly precached with zero samples, however it still
621          took the full preloading time and on 1st program change the respective
622          instrument was completely reloaded again.
623        - fixed handling of rapid bank select and program change messages
624          sent to the same sampler channel (patch from the Open Octave
625          project, slightly adjusted)

637        - Mac OS X: fixed process hang when unloading 32-bit plugin (bug
638          introduced in previous fix)
639        - fixed crash when a channel received a program change while
640          playing a note in a key group
641        - fixed erroneous error message piping in VoiceBase.h
642          (labelled "Disk stream not available in time")
643        - Update effects on sample rate & period size changes (to avoid
644          crashes and noise on such transitions).
645        - ignore missing LADSPA paths without ignoring valid LADSPA paths
646          (fixes #208)
647        - Fixed bug in LSCP grammar definition which caused a statement like
648          "GET SERVER INFOasdf\n" to be accepted as valid statement (was so far
649          practically irrelevant, however it caused problems with the new LSCP
650          shell's auto completion feature).
651        - Fixed MIDI program change messages being ignored if quickly executed
652          after each other (fixes #231).
