1 capela 491 Qsampler - A LinuxSampler Qt GUI Interface
2 capela 109 ------------------------------------------
3    
4     ChangeLog
5    
6 schoenebeck 1626 CVS HEAD
7    
8 schoenebeck 1668 * Added FX Sends Dialog to Channel Strips.
9    
10 capela 1637 * Color pallete fix for the instrument name display in channel strip,
11     particularly notorious on Mac OS X builds.
12    
13 schoenebeck 1626 * Added dialog when the application exits which lets the user decide
14     whether to keep the LinuxSampler running or not.
15    
16    
17 capela 1570 0.2.1 2007-12-06 Qt4 migration was complete.
18 schoenebeck 1461
19 schoenebeck 1527 * Added recent new support of libgig for retrieving instrument names in a
20     very fast way. If libgig provides this feature, then the respective
21     name retrieval setting in qsampler is enabled by default.
22    
23 capela 1514 * The current selected/activated channel-strip is now visually
24     evident while in the application workspace (highlighting).
25    
26 capela 1512 * Make View/Menubar and Toolbar shortcuts accessible even though
27     the main menu and toobar are not visible.
28    
29 capela 1509 * Audio routing table is initially hidden in the dialog, when
30     creating a new sampler channel.
31    
32     * README requirements and configuration notes update.
33    
34 schoenebeck 1506 * Disable OK button in sampler channel form and MIDI instrument
35     form if no valid engine is selected (to avoid bothering newbie
36     users with confusing LSCP syntax errors when using the UI the
37     first time).
38    
39 capela 1499 * Fixed creation of devices (don't try to set device parameters
40     which the user did not touch in the device creation dialog).
41 schoenebeck 1486
42 schoenebeck 1493 * Added Windows file path support.
43    
44 capela 1499 * Fixed win32/qmakefile and win32/config.h so that it compiles
45     under win32.
46 schoenebeck 1493
47 schoenebeck 1492 * Qt4 port of the application.
48 schoenebeck 1461
49    
50 capela 1437 0.1.5 2007-10-15 Five months later a fifth is heard.
51 capela 1234
52 capela 1394 * Added support for LSCP escape sequences to allow loading and
53     mapping instrument files with special characters in their
54 schoenebeck 1402 filename, as well as special characters for instrument names
55     and instrument map names (requires LSCP v1.2 on sampler side).
56 capela 1394
57 capela 1372 * Added new button "Edit" to the channel strips, which probably
58     does exactly what you think it does: it opens an appropriate
59     instrument editor application; the channel instrument editor
60     tool is also accessible from the main menu and toolbar.
61    
62 capela 1255 * Application icon is now installed to ${prefix}/share/pixmaps;
63     application desktop entry file is now included in installation;
64     spec file (RPM) is now a bit more openSUSE compliant.
65    
66 capela 1234 * Crash fix on double-clicking on a empty instrument list.
67    
68    
69 capela 1166 0.1.4 2007-05-04 Almost another year has gone by.
70 schoenebeck 736
71 capela 1036 * Channel button colors have changed: yellow for mute and
72     cyan for solo is now the rule, but note that this color
73     highlighting is only rendered on some widget styles.
74    
75 capela 1034 * Master sampler volume slider/spinbox combo is now featured.
76    
77 capela 1024 * Initial support for sampler channel FX sends, while saving
78     the session state, only at code-level.
79 capela 1036
80 capela 1016 * Sampler channel setup dialog does not mandate for valid nor
81 capela 1018 existing instrument file name.
82 capela 1016
83 capela 987 * Revised error verbosity in general and on session load/save;
84     hour-glass wait cursor is now displayed on session load/save;
85     keyboard shortcuts changed on MIDI instruments view context;
86     improved channel strip arrangement on session open/load;
87     instrument map entry removal confirmation (as optional);
88     corrected some tooltip text strings.
89 capela 971
90 capela 968 * Most top-level widgets were missing the normal-widget flag,
91     which were causing some sticky size behavior while on some
92     window managers.
93    
94 capela 961 * Added preliminary MIDI instrument mapping support; now
95 capela 1016 with an instrument list widget and editing capabilities;
96     MIDI instrumeent map program numbers are now displayed in
97     the range 1-128, instead of the internal 0-127.
98 capela 957
99 capela 969 * GPL address update.
100 capela 920
101    
102 capela 870 0.1.3 2006-06-01 Its been a long year isn't it?
103    
104     * Changed deprecated copyright attribute to license,
105     on qsampler.spec (RPM).
106    
107 capela 847 * Added configure support for x86_64 libraries (UNTESTED).
108    
109 capela 825 * Optional specification of alternate liblscp and libgig
110     installation paths have been added to configure command
111     arguments (--with-liblscp, --with-libgig).
112    
113 capela 824 * Whenever the listing of actual instrument names is not an
114     option (e.g. due to lack of libgig support), the whole
115     number of selectable instrument items is now being graciously
116     increased from just the bare 8 (eight) right up through 100
117     (one hundred), on the sampler channel setup dialog.
118    
119     * The selection buttons, on the right of the Instrument, Audio
120     and MIDI devices combo-boxes, on the sampler channel dialog,
121     are now expected to be a little better looking than it was
122     before, at least for those Mac OS X eyes.
123    
124 capela 772 * Minor fixing on the initial messages dock-window height.
125    
126 capela 758 * Audio output channel routing configuration finally hits
127     the sampler channel dialog, at last! (EXPERIMENTAL).
128    
129 capela 757 * All widget captions changed to include proper application
130     title name prefix.
131    
132 capela 753 * Attempt to bring those aging autoconf templates to date;
133     sample SPEC file for RPM build is now being included and
134     generated at configure time.
135    
136 schoenebeck 1461 * Set to use QApplication::setMainWidget() instead of
137     registering the traditional lastWindowClosed() signal
138     to quit() slot, just to let the -geometry command line
139 capela 752 argument have some effect on X11.
140    
141 capela 751 * Added MUTE/SOLO buttons to individual channel strips.
142    
143 schoenebeck 736 * Fixed compilation error which occured when Qt was
144     compiled with -no-stl.
145    
146    
147 capela 680 0.1.2 2005-06-23 Even minor workings needs a rest.
148 capela 653
149 schoenebeck 1461 * Fixed output disability when messages limit option is
150 capela 661 turned off (thanks to Wolfgang Woehl for spotting this
151     one, while on qjackctl).
152 capela 653
153 capela 664 * Added CHANNEL_INFO event feedback notification handling;
154     minor stream/voice usage auto-refresh cycle optimization.
155 capela 661
156 capela 662
157 capela 631 0.1.1 2005-06-12 The mantra of bugfixes.
158 capela 586
159 capela 619 * New improved and full-featured application icon, thanks
160 capela 601 to Christian Schoenebeck design.
161 capela 619
162 capela 590 * Fixed refresh cycle of channel strips that are found
163 capela 605 in an error state, which was preventing correct channel
164 capela 590 info updates.
165 capela 586
166 capela 622 * Device configuration now accessible on toolbar. Added
167     buddy text label to device port/channel combobox on the
168     device dialog.
169 capela 586
170 capela 605 * Include libgig version info on command line request (-v).
171    
172 capela 619 * Minor configure and Makefile install fixes, as Debian and
173     Mac OS X specialties. Also, install does the right thing
174     with target file modes (thanks to Matt Flax and Ebrahim
175 capela 615 Mayat, for pointing these out).
176 capela 590
177 capela 600
178 capela 567 0.1.0 2005-05-23 Device configuration breakthrough.
179 schoenebeck 519
180 capela 465 * Device configuration is now complete (EXPERIMENTAL).
181 capela 426
182 capela 526 * [bug #9] Fixed for a LSCP command syntax convention
183 capela 619 consistency, regarding the enumeration of available
184 capela 526 sampler engines, Audio and MIDI drivers.
185 capela 567
186 schoenebeck 1461 * [bug #13] Update instrument names list when a new
187 capela 619 instrument file is select on the channel setup dialog.
188 capela 426
189 capela 619 * Show appropriate message in channel strip while loading
190 schoenebeck 1461 an instrument.
191 capela 567
192 capela 619 * Show libgig version in About box (in case libgig is used).
193 capela 526
194    
195 capela 421 0.0.5 2005-03-04 Fifth alpha-release.
196 capela 327
197 capela 414 * Fixed device driver type channel information gathering,
198     which was severely flawed, dropping all channel session
199     configurations to the default audio driver type (which
200     is ALSA) unexpectedly.
201    
202 capela 409 * Channels are now properly renumbered when saving to a
203     session LSCP script, assuming that it should be always
204     loaded from scratch (i.e. zero channels).
205    
206     * Disabled MIDI port setting on channel dialog, and on
207     session file save, as its use is still troublesome.
208    
209 capela 404 * Added new menu and toolbar option: Reset All Channels.
210    
211     * Channel setup changes are now properly filtered, as for
212     only those settings that are actually changed gets applied;
213     change information are now also posted to messages window.
214    
215 capela 388 * Drag-and-drop of either session files (LSCP scripts) or
216     instrument files (GIG) are now supported. Multiple files
217     drop is allowed, but it only makes sense for instrument
218     files, each one prompting to create a new sampler channel.
219    
220 schoenebeck 1461 * Drag-and-drop to an existing channel strip is now also
221     featured, allowing the in-place change of the channel
222 capela 395 sampler instrument file.
223    
224 capela 341 * Actual instrument names are now optionally retrieved
225     from the instrument file, even though libgig is available,
226     avoiding excessively annoying load times while on the
227     channel dialog, when huge instrument files are selected.
228    
229     * Set to ignore the SIGPIPE ("Broken pipe") signal, where
230 capela 340 available, as the default handler is usually fatal when
231     a JACK client is zombified abruptly.
232    
233 capela 341 * Messages window limit is now enforced only when the line
234 capela 327 count exceeds in one third the user configured line count
235 capela 338 maximum; if Qt 3.2.0+ is in use, the QTextView widget is
236     otherwise set to the optimized Qt::LogText format.
237 capela 327
238    
239 capela 303 0.0.4 2004-11-19 Fourth alpha-release.
240 capela 115
241 capela 299 * Instrument index selection now made via combo box widget;
242     actual instrument names are now properly retrieved from
243     the instrument file, provided if libgig is available.
244    
245 capela 295 * Sampler channels strips are just created if, and only if,
246     the respective channel setup dialog is actually accepted,
247     following common user-interface guidelines.
248    
249 capela 264 * Almost complete rewrite of sampler channel strips internal
250     control structures.
251    
252 capela 255 * Sampler reset command action added to menu and toolbar.
253    
254     * MIDI channel selection is now a dropdown list, allowing
255     the explicit selection for "All" channels input per sampler
256 capela 295 channel (omni mode).
257 capela 255
258     * Channel strip display glass effect has changed background
259 capela 267 color to black (was green), being now an user option.
260 capela 255
261     * Minor configure fixes.
262    
263    
264     0.0.3 2004-07-06 Third alpha-release.
265    
266 capela 145 * Mon-modal intrument file loading and status support.
267    
268 capela 176 * Effective MIDI input port setting on channel dialog,
269     and on session file save.
270 capela 145
271 capela 176 * Channel dialog gets sensible engine and driver defaults
272     on create time.
273 capela 161
274 capela 176 * Implied channel reset on successful instrument load.
275    
276    
277 capela 145 0.0.2 2004-06-15 Pre-revolutionary release.
278    
279 capela 127 * The channel context menu is also accessible by right-clicking
280     over the empty workspace area.
281 capela 130
282 capela 122 * Added small wait event loop on qsamplerMainForm::stopServer(),
283     so let local server terminate gracefully and stabilize, and
284     avoiding a probable segfault on exit, which was preventing the
285     correct salvage of settings and configuration.
286    
287 capela 119 * Maximum channel volume percent setting is now a global option,
288     provided to override the default (which is 100%).
289    
290     * Client/server transaction timeout option upper limit has been
291     increased from 5000 to 60000 milliseconds.
292    
293 capela 118 * A channel context menu is now featured, by right-clicking over
294     each sampler channel strip.
295 capela 115
296 capela 118 * Commented SET CHANNEL MIDI_INPUT_PORT command from
297     qsamplerMainForm::saveSessionFile(), it has no effect.
298    
299     * Insert a n #include <unistd.h> on qsamplerMessages.cpp, between
300 capela 115 a #if !defined(WIN32) clause.
301    
302 capela 118 * An initial non zero value (0.8) is now set for volume of every
303     new sampler channel strip.
304 capela 115
305     * The order to load/save and setup channel settings is now as
306     suggested in the following lines:
307    
308     SET CHANNEL AUDIO_OUTPUT_TYPE ...
309     SET CHANNEL MIDI_INPUT_TYPE ...
310     SET CHANNEL MIDI_INPUT_CHANNEL ...
311     LOAD ENGINE ...
312     LOAD INSTRUMENT ...
313     SET CHANNEL VOLUME ...
314    
315    
316 capela 109 0.0.1 2004-06-05 Primordial alpha release.
