3      * Real-time instrument scripts:
4        - Fix: Do not share compiled instrument scripts among multiple engine
5          channels (sampler parts) as this can lead to crashes and would allow the
6          same global script variables to be accessible from multiple engine
7          channels which would not be the expected behaviour by instrument script
8          authors.
9    
10      * GigaStudio/Gigasampler format engine:
11        - Use libgig's new IO-per-thread feature to avoid file I/O concurrency
12          issues with .gig file.
13        - Use libgig's new method gig::File::GetSample() with method
14          gig::File::CountSamples() instead of now deprecated
15          gig::File::GetFirstSample() / gig::File::GetNextSample() pair.
16        - Use libgig's new method gig::Instrument::GetRegionAt() with method
17          gig::Instrument:CountRegions() instead of now deprecated
18          gig::Instrument::GetFirstRegion() / gig::Instrument::GetNextRegion() pair.
19        - Use libgig's gig::File::GetInstrument() method with method
20          gig::File::CountInstruments() instead of now deprecated
21          gig::File::GetFirstInstrument() / gig::File::GetNextInstrument() pair.
22    
23      * MIDI driver:
24        - VirtualMidiDevice: added method Reset() which is e.g. intended to be used
25          in "panic" / MIDI "all sound off" / MIDI "all note off" situations.
26    
27    Version 2.2.0 (9 May 2021)

29    * general changes:    * general changes:
30      - Fixed compiler error in Pool.h.      - Fixed compiler error in Pool.h.
31      - Require C++14 compiler support.      - Require C++14 compiler support.

36      - RTMath: Implemented floating point comparison methods      - RTMath: Implemented floating point comparison methods
37        fEqual32(float,float) and fEqual64(double,double) which take the        fEqual32(float,float) and fEqual64(double,double) which take the
38        expected floating point tolerances into account.        expected floating point tolerances into account.
39        - Added public API C++ class "LFO", which is a cluster class encapsulating
40          all the sampler's LFO implementations to be used by 3rd party applications
41          (e.g. by Gigedit).
42        - Added int math square LFO implementation.
43        - Added int math saw LFO implementation.
44        - Added numeric complex nr sine LFO implementation.
45        - Marked class LFOTriangleDiHarmonic as deprecated
46          (will be removed in future).
47        - Added LFOAll.h which includes all LFO implementation's header files.
48        - Refactored LFO class names and their file names (PulseLFO -> LFOPulse,
49          LFOSawIntMath -> LFOSawIntMathNew, SawLFO -> LFOSawIntMathOld,
50          SineLFO -> LFOSineBuiltinFn, LFOSine -> LFOSineNumericComplexNr,
51          SquareLFO -> LFOSquarePulse and separated the latter to its own header
52          file).
53        - Renamed type LFOSigned -> LFOTriangleSigned.
54        - Renamed type LFOUnsigned -> LFOTriangleUnsigned.
55        - Using now cubic interpolation as resampling algorithm by default; and
56          linear interpolation is deprecated now.
57        - Event:Init(): memset() entire Event::Param union to zero instead of trying
58          to do that for its individual members; the latter became error prone due
59          to the union's growing complexity meanwhile.
60        - EngineChannel: Overhaul of RPN/NRPN related methods: Added new
61          *Rpn*Parameter*() methods as replacement for previous *Rpn*Controller*()
62          methods and marked the old ones as deprecated; and likewise added new
63          *Nrpn*Parameter*() methods as replacement for previous *Nrpn*Controller*()
64          methods and marked those old ones deprecated as well.
65        - Added support for MIDI CC #38 (data entry LSB): this allows higher value
66          resolution for certain (e.g. hard coded) RPN and NRPN parameters.
67        - Implemented support for compressed RPN/NRPN message sequences (that is to
68          allow processing MIDI data entry messages without always having to be
69          preceded strictly by RPN/NRPN parameter selection messages on each value
70          change).
71        - Added support for MIDI CC #96 (data increment) and MIDI CC #97 (data
72          decrement).
73        - Added support for 'null function RPN/NRPN' (which is RPN/NRPN parameter
74          MSB=127 and LSB=127) and which is disabling subsequent data
75          entry/increment/decrement CC messages.
76        - Fixed crash when editing key groups (a.k.a. exclusive groups) with an
77          instrument editor.
78        - Fixed playing noise at the end of a disk stream under certain conditions.
79        - Fixed potential crash with high pitch at end of RAM playback.
80        - Added configure checks whether C++ compiler supports so called
81          'designated initializers'.
82        - Added global backtraceAsString() function for debugging purposes
83          (POSIX systems only, no Windows implementation yet).
84        - Thread class: Added new methods pushCancelable(), popCancelable(), name(),
85          nameOfCaller() and setNameOfCaller().
86        - configure: Always check for availability of pthread_testcancel() and use
87          it if so (previously it was only used if explicitly enabled by configure
88          option).
89        - Thread class: raise compiler warning if pthread_testcancel() is not
90          available, because it can lead to deadlocks.
91        - Mutex class: Implemented optional bug detection and deadlock debugging
92          features.
93        - Ref<> class is now thread safe (as lock-free and wait-free
94          implementation).
95        - Fixed compilation error with Bison >= 3.6.0.
96        - Fixed rare crash when switching between instruments that had instrument
97          scripts loaded.
98        - Allow EffectChain::InsertEffect() as alternative to
99          EffectChain::AppendEffect() (i.e. with index equal to current chain size).
100        - ConstCapacityArray class: Fixed bug in remove() method.
101        - Fixed crash on certain MIDI RPN and NRPN messages that occurred if no
102          real-time instrument script was loaded.
103    
104    * Real-time instrument scripts:    * Real-time instrument scripts:
105      - Added method ScriptVM::setExitResultEnabled() which allows to      - Added method ScriptVM::setExitResultEnabled() which allows to

240        "change_pan_time()", "fade_in()", "fade_out()", "change_play_pos()".        "change_pan_time()", "fade_in()", "fade_out()", "change_play_pos()".
241      - Fixed built-in function "change_play_pos()" not having accepted metric      - Fixed built-in function "change_play_pos()" not having accepted metric
242        prefixes at all.        prefixes at all.
243        - Fixed the following built-in functions having misinterpreted values given
244          with unit type (for their 2nd argument) as if they were relative values
245          (that is as if they were passed without a unit type): "change_attack()",
246          "change_decay()", "change_release()", "change_cutoff_attack()",
247          "change_cutoff_decay()", "change_cutoff_release()".
248        - Fixed the following built-in functions having applied completely wrong
249          'final' values: "change_sustain()", "change_cutoff_sustain()" (since the
250          respective EGs being their modulation sink assume uint data type with
251          value range 0..1000 instead of 0.0..1.0.
252        - Added individual parse-time checks of function arguments for the following
253          built-in functions: "play_note()", "note_off()", "set_event_mark()",
254          "delete_event_mark()", "by_marks()", "change_cutoff()", "change_attack()",
255          "change_decay()", "change_release()", "change_cutoff_attack()",
256          "change_cutoff_decay()", "change_cutoff_release()",
257          "change_amp_lfo_freq()", "change_cutoff_lfo_freq()",
258          "change_pitch_lfo_freq()", "change_vol_time()", "change_tune_time()" and
259          "change_pan_time()".
260        - Don't abort function call if unit type was used and at the same time
261          'final' operator was omitted for the primary value argument of the
262          following built-in functions: "change_cutoff()", "change_attack()",
263          "change_decay()", "change_release()", "change_cutoff_attack()",
264          "change_cutoff_decay()", "change_cutoff_release()",
265          "change_amp_lfo_freq()", "change_cutoff_lfo_freq()",
266          "change_pitch_lfo_freq()", "change_vol_time()", "change_tune_time()",
267          "change_pan_time()", instead imply 'final'ness at runtime and raise an
268          appropriate parser warning at parse time.
269        - Added built-in real number functions "round()", "ceil()", "floor()",
270          "sqrt()", "log()", "log2()", "log10()", "exp()", "pow()", "sin()",
271          "cos()", "tan()", "asin()", "acos()", "atan()".
272        - Added built-in script real number constant "~NI_MATH_PI".
273        - Added built-in script real number constant "~NI_MATH_E".
274        - NKSP language: Allow unary '+' operator.
275        - Added built-in script functions "msb()" and "lsb()".
276        - NKSP language: Added support for RPN event handler
277          ("on rpn ... end on" in instrument scripts).
278        - NKSP language: Added support for NRPN event handler
279          ("on nrpn ... end on" in instrument scripts).
280        - Added built-in read-only variables "$RPN_ADDRESS" and "$RPN_VALUE" which
281          may be read from the new RPN/NRPN script handlers to get the (N)RPN
282          parameter that had been changed and its new value.
283        - Added built-in const variables "$NI_CB_TYPE_RPN" and "$NI_CB_TYPE_NRPN"
284          which are identifying the new (N)RPN handlers as such at script runtime.
285        - Implemented built-in script function "set_rpn()".
286        - Implemented built-in script function "set_nrpn()".
287        - Fix: built-in functions returning an array type were broken and caused a
288          crash when the built-in function's (supposed to be array) result value was
289          used by the script VM.
290        - Removed upper value constraint for 2nd argument of built-in functions
291          "change_amp_lfo_freq()", "change_cutoff_lfo_freq()",
292          "change_pitch_lfo_freq()","change_reso()", "change_cutoff()",
293          "change_amp_lfo_depth()", "change_cutoff_lfo_depth()" and
294          "change_pitch_lfo_depth()", to allow e.g. passing value 2000000 to double
295          the LFO frequency / resonance / cutoff frequency.
296        - Reduced code involved for parsing NKSP variable declarations by using 2
297          generalized grammar rules with optional components (i.e. optional value
298          assignment and optional variable qualifiers) instead of previous linear
299          combinations of grammar rules, which also fixes some edge case.
300        - NKSP language parser: track code block locations also by a) raw byte
301          position in NKSP source code string and b) length of that code block in
302          bytes (along to the already existing code block tracking by line/column);
303          and added appropriate new members to public C++ API classes like
304          'firstByte' and 'lengthBytes' to class VMSourceToken and struct CodeBlock.
305        - NKSP language: Added support for 'patch' variable qualifier (capture their
306          locations and allow replacement of their assignment expression via VM C++
307          API).
308        - Fixed incorrect EG times if standard measuring unit was passed to built-in
309          functions "change_attack()", "change_decay()" or "change_release()".
310        - Fixed intermediate function result values never having reflected any
311          standard measuring unit type.
312        - Fixed re-entrant issue with function calls which caused wrong result
313          values if the same function was called multiple times in a term
314          (specifically if metric prefixes were used).
315        - NKSP language: Just throw a warning, not an error if an array variable of
316          size zero was declared.
317        - NKSP language: Allow omitting explicit array size on array variable
318          declaration if combined with immediate value assignment
319          (e.g. declare %foo[] := ( 1, 2, 3 ) ).
320        - NKSP language: emit warning if an array variable was declared with bigger
321          array size than amount of initial values been assigned, and initialize the
322          missing array elements with zero in this case.
323        - Fixed built-in NKSP exit() function to behave as return statement.
324        - NKSP parser: Fixed crash if unary '-' operator was used on a non-number
325          data type.
326        - NKSP VM: Fixed the "release" handler being executed too often under
327          certain situations if polyphonic data was passed from "note" handler to
328          "release" handler.
329        - Fixed memory leak in NKSP parser: string tokens were allocated as C
330          strings and never freed.
331        - Fixed incorrect polyphonic data transfer from wrong note handler to
332          release handler; which also fixes no release handler being executed
333          sometimes, and due to the latter it also fixes potential crashes as some
334          polyphonic script events were never released and the engine hence was
335          running out of free script events.
336        - Fixed crash when handling array results of built-in functions
337          (e.g. "num_elements(by_marks($MARK_1)").
338        - NKSP VM: Fixed dead note events not been removed from user's event groups
339          (i.e. causing incorrect behaviour of built-in NKSP functions by_marks()
340          and set_event_mark() after max. size of event group list was exhausted).
341    
342    * test cases:    * test cases:
343      - Fixed compiler errors in test cases.      - Fixed compiler errors in test cases.

358        equalness / unequalness comparison.        equalness / unequalness comparison.
359      - Added NKSP int array and real array tests for value assignment and      - Added NKSP int array and real array tests for value assignment and
360        initialization of arrays.        initialization of arrays.
361        - Added NKSP test cases for built-in functions "round()", "ceil()",
362          "floor()", "sqrt()", "log()", "log2()", "log10()", "exp()", "pow()",
363          "sin()", "cos()", "tan()", "asin()", "acos()", "atan()".
364        - Added NKSP test cases for unary '+' operator.
365        - Added NKSP test cases for core built-in variables.
366        - Added thorough NKSP test cases for variable declarations.
367    
368      * GigaStudio/Gigasampler format engine:
369        - LFOTriangleIntMath and LFOTriangleIntAbsMath: Fixed FlipPhase=true
370          behaviour for start_level_mid.
371        - Changed LFO start levels: LFO1 and LFO2 both to mid, LFO3 to max. start
372          level (see discussion "GigaStudio LFO compatibility" on mailing list
373          from 2019-09-26 for details).
374        - Changed default wave form for all 3 LFOs to sine (instead of triangle;
375          see discussion "GigaStudio LFO compatibility" on mailing list from
376          2019-09-26 for details).
377        - Format extension: Added support for different LFO wave forms (currently
378          either sine [default], triangle, saw or square).
379        - Format extension: Added support for LFO phase displacement (0°..360°).
380        - Format extension: Added support for flipping LFO polarity on LFO 3
381          (in the original gig format this was only available for LFO 1 and LFO 2).
382        - Format extension: Support for additional filter types:
383          lowpass 1/2/4/6-pole, highpass 1/2/4/6-pole, bandpass 2-pole,
384          bandreject 2-pole.
385        - Fixd potential crash with polynomial interpolator and max. pitch.
386        - If minimum cutoff is defined, remap cutoff controller CC values to really
387          span the entire possible cutoff range (and avoiding a dead controller
388          zone).
389        - Implemented support for loading instrument scripts with 'patch' variables
390          (by patching these script variables with potentially overridden ones by
391          gig Instrument).
392    
393      * SFZ format engine:
394        - Fixed support for regions with loccN/hiccN conditions on more than one
395          MIDI controller.
396        - Fixed internal opcode 'xfin_hivel' falsely being set by user opcode
397          'xfin_lovel' (patch by Christian Czezatke).
398    
399      * Benchmarks:
400        - Fixed benchmarks/triang.cpp falsely having favoured "int math abs"
401          algorithm (since result of 2nd run was not accumulated).
402        - Added benchmark for saw wave (benchmarks/saw.cpp).
403        - Added benchmark for sine wave (benchmarks/sine.cpp).
404        - Added benchmark for square wave (benchmarks/square.cpp).
405        - Increased amount of benchmarks runs by factor 6 to achieve benchmark times
406          which are large enough on modern systems.
