6  CVS HEAD  SVN TRUNK
7    
8    * Sampler channel and instrument file requester support for
9      other than GIG engine instrument files (*gig; *.dls) has
10      been added, making roads for the newer SFZ and SF2 engines
11      instrument files (*.sfz; *.sf2).
12    
13    * General standard dialog buttons layout is now in place.
14    
15    * Initial widget geometry and visibility persistence logic has
16      been slightly revised as much to avoid crash failures due to
17      wrong main widget hidden state.
18    
19    * General source tree layout and build configuration change.
20    
21    * Automatic crash-dump reports, debugger stack-traces (gdb), back-
22      traces, whatever, are being introduced as a brand new configure
23      option (--enable-stacktrace) and default enabled on debug build
24      targets (--enable-debug).
25    
26    * Attempt to fix broken instrument list model/view on Qt >= 4.6.
27    
28    * Device parameter spin-box default maximum has been set higher:
29      now at a magic 24-bit limit (16777216) instead of older 16-bit
30      (65536), possibly fixing bug #136.
31    
32    * LADISH Level 1 support has been added: SIGUSR1 signal trap
33      just makes it a shortcut to File/Save.
34    
35    * MIDI Device Status menu is disabled when no MIDI device exists;
36      a menu separator has been added.
37    
38    * Window manager's close button was found missing from the Devices
39      and Instruments widgets when on Qt >= 4.5, now fixed.
40    
41    * MIDI activity indicator on channel strips and MIDI device status
42      widgets is now implemented as a flashing green LED, instead of a
43      lame green solid background :).
44    
45    * Global configuration state is now explicitly saved/committed to
46      disk when View/Options... dialog changes are accepted and applied.
47    
48    * Czech (cs) translation added (by Pavel Fric).
49    
50    
51    0.2.2  2009-08-01  New release cycle.
52    
53    * Russian (qsampler_ru.ts by Alexandre Prokoudine) makes it as
54      brand first translation delivered. Thanks and welcomes whom
55      ever may follow ;)
56    
57    * Converted obsolete QMessageBox forms to standard buttons.
58    
59    * Added support for runtime max. voices / disk streams setting
60      (accessible from the "Options..." dialog). Those fine tuning
61      settings will be saved in case the user modified them and
62      automatically restored to the sampler when reconnecting to
63      a sampler the next time.
64    
65    * Grayed/disabled palette color group fix for dark color themes.
66    
67    * Fait-divers: desktop menu file touched to openSUSE conventions.
68    
69    * Due to some trouble with newer Qt >= 4.4 applications regarding
70      font size configuration, a new global user option is now available
71      to the rescue: View/Options... /Display/Other/Base font size
72      (default none).
73    
74    * Attempt to load Qt's own translation support and get rid of
75      the ever warning startup message, unless built in debug mode.
76      (transaction by Guido Scholz, while on qsynth-devel, thanks).
77    
78    * Only one application instance is now allowed to be up and
79      running, with immediate but graceful termination upon startup
80      iif an already running instance is detected, which will see its
81      main widget shown up automatically (Qt/X11 platform only).
82    
83    * Messages file logging makes its first long overdue appearance,
84      with user configurable settings in View/Options.../Server/Logging.
85    
86    * Bugfix in sampler channel dialog, driver combo boxes' content were
87      screwed.
88    
89    * Automatically add & remove channel strips as they were removed
90      e.g. by other frontends.
91    
92    * Refresh device management dialog when device informations changed,
93      e.g. on changes caused by other frontends
94      (fixes segfault on device changes)
95    
96    * Implemented MIDI device activity windows, selectable from the
97      "View" main menu.
98    
99    * Implemented MIDI activity indicator on channel strips.
100    
101    * Added FX Sends Dialog to Channel Strips.
102    
103    * Color pallete fix for the instrument name display in channel
104      strip, particularly notorious on Mac OS X builds.
105    
106    * Added dialog when the application exits which lets the user
107      decide whether to keep the LinuxSampler running or not.
108    
109    
110    0.2.1  2007-12-06  Qt4 migration was complete.
111    
112    * Added recent new support of libgig for retrieving instrument
113      names in avery fast way. If libgig provides this feature, then
114      the respective name retrieval setting in qsampler is enabled by
115      default.
116    
117    * The current selected/activated channel-strip is now visually
118      evident while in the application workspace (highlighting).
119    
120    * Make View/Menubar and Toolbar shortcuts accessible even though
121      the main menu and toobar are not visible.
122    
123    * Audio routing table is initially hidden in the dialog, when
124      creating a new sampler channel.
125    
126    * README requirements and configuration notes update.
127    
128    * Disable OK button in sampler channel form and MIDI instrument
129      form if no valid engine is selected (to avoid bothering newbie
130      users with confusing LSCP syntax errors when using the UI the
131      first time).
132    
133    * Fixed creation of devices (don't try to set device parameters
134      which the user did not touch in the device creation dialog).
135    
136    * Added Windows file path support.
137    
138    * Fixed win32/qmakefile and win32/config.h so that it compiles
139      under win32.
140    
141    * Qt4 port of the application.
142    
143    
144    0.1.5  2007-10-15 Five months later a fifth is heard.
145    
146    * Added support for LSCP escape sequences to allow loading and
147      mapping instrument files with special characters in their
148      filename, as well as special characters for instrument names
149      and instrument map names (requires LSCP v1.2 on sampler side).
150    
151    * Added new button "Edit" to the channel strips, which probably
152      does exactly what you think it does: it opens an appropriate
153      instrument editor application; the channel instrument editor
154      tool is also accessible from the main menu and toolbar.
155    
156    * Application icon is now installed to ${prefix}/share/pixmaps;
157      application desktop entry file is now included in installation;
158      spec file (RPM) is now a bit more openSUSE compliant.
