# 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      * Gigasampler format engine:
7        - Fixed clicks and pumping noise with Lowpass Turbo filter on very low
8          cutoff settings.
9    
10      * general changes:
11        - fixed printf type errors (mostly in debug messages)
12        - use unique_ptr instead of auto_ptr when building with C++11
13        - Added RTAVLTree class which is a real-time safe ordered multi-map, thus
14          allowing to sort data efficiently in real-time safe manner.
15        - RTList class: added methods for moving/inserting elements to arbitrary
16          position within a list.
17        - RTList class: added method fromPtr() for creating an Iterator object from
18          a raw element pointer.
19        - Attempt to partly fix resetting engine channels vs. resetting engine, an
20          overall cleanup of the Reset*(), ConnectAudioDevice(),
21          DisconnectAudioDevice() API methods would still be desirable though,
22          because the current situation is still inconsistent and error prone.
23        - Active voices are now internally grouped to "Note" objects, instead of
24          being directly assigned to a keyboard key. This allows more fine graded
25          processing of voices, which is i.e. required for certain instrument
26          script features.
27        - Fix: Release trigger voices were not spawned on sustain pedal up
28          (CC #64) events.
29        - Fix: Release trigger voices can now also distinguish correctly between
30          note-off and sustain pedal up events.
31        - All engines: Increased ramp speed of volume smoother and pan smoother
32          (while slow rate of crossfade smoother is preserved) to allow quick
33          volume and pan changes by instrument scripts for instance.
34        - gig/sf2/sfz: Fixed aftertouch channel pressure events being processed
35          properly and thus were ignored for certain uses.
36        - Added new C++ API method
37          VirtualMidiDevice::SendChannelPressureToSampler().
38        - windows, 32-bit: fixed potential crashes by making sure the stack in
39          sub threads is 16-byte aligned
40        - fixed numerous compiler warnings
41    
42      * packaging changes:
43        - removed unnecessary dependency to libuuid
44          (originated by libgig's usage of it)
45        - Automake: set environment variable GCC_COLORS=auto to allow GCC to
46          auto detect whether it (sh/c)ould output its messages in color.
47    
48      * Real-time instrument scripts:
49        - Implemented scheduler for delayed MIDI events and for suspended scripts.
50        - Built-in script function "wait()": implemented support for function's
51          "duration-us" argument, thus scripts using this function are now
52          correctly resumed after the requested amount of microseconds.
53        - Built-in script function "play_note()": implemented support for
54          function's "duration-us" argument, thus notes triggered with this
55          argument are now correctly released after the requested amount of
56          microseconds.
57        - Fix: script events were not cleared when engine channel was reset,
58          potentially causing undefined behavior.
59        - Fixed crash which happened when trying to reference an undeclared
60          variable.
61        - Built-in script function "play_note()": Added support for passing
62          special value -1 for "duration-us" argument, which will cause the
63          triggered note to be released once the original note was released.
64        - Instrument script classes now exported with the liblinuxsampler C++ API.
65        - Added new API method ScriptVM::syntaxHighlighting() which provides
66          a convenient syntax highlighting backend for external instrument
67          script editor applications.
68        - Added new C++ API class "ScriptVMFactory".
69        - Extended parser issues to provide not only first line and first
70          column, but also last line and last column of issue (thus marking
71          the precise span of the issue within the source code).
72        - Reload script automatically after being modified by an instrument
73          editor.
74        - NKSP language grammar correction: allow empty event handler bodies
75          like "on note end on".
76        - Implemented built-in script function "change_vol()".
77        - Implemented built-in script function "change_tune()".
78        - Implemented built-in script function "change_pan()".
79        - Implemented built-in script function "change_cutoff()".
80        - Implemented built-in script function "change_reso()".
81        - Implemented built-in script function "event_status()".
82        - Added built-in script constants "$EVENT_STATUS_INACTIVE" and
83          "$EVENT_STATUS_NOTE_QUEUE" both for being used as flags for
84          "event_status()" function.
85        - NKSP language: Added support for bitwise operators ".or.", ".and."
86          and ".not.".
87        - NKSP language scanner: Fixed IDs matching to require at least one
88          character (i.e. when matching function names or variable names).
89        - NKSP language scanner: disabled unusued rules.
90        - Fixed behavior of play_note() and note_off() functions which must
91          be distinguished engine internally from "real" MIDI note on/off
92          events in order to avoid misbehaviors like hanging notes.
93        - Implemented built-in script variable "$KSP_TIMER".
94        - Implemented built-in script variable "$NKSP_REAL_TIMER".
95        - Implemented built-in script variable "$NKSP_PERF_TIMER".
96        - Implemented built-in script variable "$ENGINE_UPTIME".
97        - Implemented built-in script function "inc()".
98        - Implemented built-in script function "dec()".
99        - NKSP language fix: division expressions were evaluated too often.
100        - NKSP language fix: string concatenation operator was right
101          associative instead of left (to right).
102        - NKSP language correction: allow empty statements in entire language
103          (i.e. "if end if").
104        - Implemented built-in script function "stop_wait()".
105        - Implemented built-in script variable "$NI_CALLBACK_ID".
106        - Implemented built-in script variable "$NI_CALLBACK_TYPE".
107        - Implemented built-in script variable "$NKSP_IGNORE_WAIT".
108        - Added support for read-only built-in variables (respectively
109          handled by the script parser).
110        - Added built-in script constant "$NI_CB_TYPE_INIT".
111        - Added built-in script constant "$NI_CB_TYPE_NOTE".
112        - Added built-in script constant "$NI_CB_TYPE_RELEASE".
113        - Added built-in script constant "$NI_CB_TYPE_CONTROLLER".
114        - NKSP Language: Added support for user defined script functions.
115        - Implemented built-in script function "change_attack()".
116        - Implemented built-in script function "change_decay()".
117        - Implemented built-in script function "change_release()".
118        - Fixed all change_*() built-in script functions to apply their
119          synthesis parameter changes immediately in case the respective note
120          was triggered at the same time, instead of scheduling the parameter
121          change, especially because it would cause some parameter types's
122          changes either to be ramped (i.e. change_vol()) or other types even
123          to have not effect at all (i.e. change_attack()).
124        - Implemented built-in script function "sh_left()".
125        - Implemented built-in script function "sh_right()".
126        - Implemented built-in script function "min()".
127        - Implemented built-in script function "max()".
128        - NKSP Fix: "init" event handler was not always executed when a script
129          was loaded.
130        - NKSP built-in wait() script function: abort script execution if
131          a negative or zero wait time was passed as argument (since this is
132          a common indication of a bug either of the script or even of the
133          engine, which could lead to RT instability or even worse).
134        - ScriptVM: Implemented automatic suspension of RT safety
135          threatening scripts.
136        - Provide more user friendly error messages on syntax errors.
137        - Fixed NKSP parser warning "Not a statement" when assigning an
138          initializer list to an array variable.
139        - Implemented built-in script array variable "%ALL_EVENTS".
140    
141      * Instruments DB:
142        - Fixed memory access bug of general DB access code which lead to
143          undefined behavior.

247          polyphonic key pressure events (so far polyphonic pressure was not
248          supported at all, and channel pressure was rerouted as CC128 but not
249          used so far).
250        - Added initial support for real-time instrument scripts. The script VM
251          code is shared by all sampler engine implemementations, however only the
252          gig file format currently provides support for storing instrument scripts
253          (as LinuxSampler extension to the original GigaStudio 4 format).

576          line while typing (no double tab required for this feature, as it would
577          be the case in other shells).
578        - Added support for moving cursor left/right with arrow keys.
579        - Added support for built-in LSCP reference documentation, which will
580          automatically show the relevant LSCP reference section on screen as soon
581          as one specific LSCP command was detected while typing on the command
582          line.
