5    
6  CVS HEAD  SVN TRUNK
7    
8    * Make(ing) -jN parallel builds now available for the masses.
9    
10    * Fixed Makefile.in handling of installation directories to the
11      configure script eg. --datadir, --localedir.
12    
13    * Made lookup of translation files work inside a Mac OS X bundle.
14    
15    * Minor Mac OS X compilation error fix.
16    
17    * Debugging stacktrace now applies to all working threads.
18    
19    * Made lookup of translation files more robust on Windows.
20    
21    * Fixes for cross compiling and building for Windows with configure
22      and make.
23    
24    * libX11 is now being added explicitly to the build link phase,
25      as seen necessary on some bleeding-edge distros eg. Fedora 13,
26      Debian 6.
27    
28    * Moving from old deprecated Qt3'ish custom event post handling
29      into regular asynchronous signal/slot strategy. (EXPERIMENTAL)
30    
31    * Sampler channel and instrument file requester support for
32      other than GIG engine instrument files (*gig; *.dls) has
33      been added, making roads for the newer SFZ and SF2 engines
34      instrument files (*.sfz; *.sf2).
35    
36    * General standard dialog buttons layout is now in place.
37    
38    * Initial widget geometry and visibility persistence logic has
39      been slightly revised as much to avoid crash failures due to
40      wrong main widget hidden state.
41    
42    * General source tree layout and build configuration change.
43    
44    * Automatic crash-dump reports, debugger stack-traces (gdb), back-
45      traces, whatever, are being introduced as a brand new configure
46      option (--enable-stacktrace) and default enabled on debug build
47      targets (--enable-debug).
48    
49    * Attempt to fix broken instrument list model/view on Qt >= 4.6.
50    
51    * Device parameter spin-box default maximum has been set higher:
52      now at a magic 24-bit limit (16777216) instead of older 16-bit
53      (65536), possibly fixing bug #136.
54    
55    * LADISH Level 1 support has been added: SIGUSR1 signal trap
56      just makes it a shortcut to File/Save.
57    
58    * MIDI Device Status menu is disabled when no MIDI device exists;
59      a menu separator has been added.
60    
61    * Window manager's close button was found missing from the Devices
62      and Instruments widgets when on Qt >= 4.5, now fixed.
63    
64    * MIDI activity indicator on channel strips and MIDI device status
65      widgets is now implemented as a flashing green LED, instead of a
66      lame green solid background :).
67    
68    * Global configuration state is now explicitly saved/committed to
69      disk when View/Options... dialog changes are accepted and applied.
70    
71    * Czech (cs) translation added (by Pavel Fric).
72    
73    
74    0.2.2  2009-08-01  New release cycle.
75    
76    * Russian (qsampler_ru.ts by Alexandre Prokoudine) makes it as
77      brand first translation delivered. Thanks and welcomes whom
78      ever may follow ;)
79    
80    * Converted obsolete QMessageBox forms to standard buttons.
81    
82    * Added support for runtime max. voices / disk streams setting
83      (accessible from the "Options..." dialog). Those fine tuning
84      settings will be saved in case the user modified them and
85      automatically restored to the sampler when reconnecting to
86      a sampler the next time.
87    
88    * Grayed/disabled palette color group fix for dark color themes.
89    
90    * Fait-divers: desktop menu file touched to openSUSE conventions.
91    
92    * Due to some trouble with newer Qt >= 4.4 applications regarding
93      font size configuration, a new global user option is now available
94      to the rescue: View/Options... /Display/Other/Base font size
95      (default none).
96    
97    * Attempt to load Qt's own translation support and get rid of
98      the ever warning startup message, unless built in debug mode.
99      (transaction by Guido Scholz, while on qsynth-devel, thanks).
100    
101    * Only one application instance is now allowed to be up and
102      running, with immediate but graceful termination upon startup
103      iif an already running instance is detected, which will see its
104      main widget shown up automatically (Qt/X11 platform only).
105    
106    * Messages file logging makes its first long overdue appearance,
107      with user configurable settings in View/Options.../Server/Logging.
108    
109    * Bugfix in sampler channel dialog, driver combo boxes' content were
110      screwed.
111    
112    * Automatically add & remove channel strips as they were removed
113      e.g. by other frontends.
114    
115    * Refresh device management dialog when device informations changed,
116      e.g. on changes caused by other frontends
117      (fixes segfault on device changes)
118    
119    * Implemented MIDI device activity windows, selectable from the
120      "View" main menu.
121    
122    * Implemented MIDI activity indicator on channel strips.
123    
124    * Added FX Sends Dialog to Channel Strips.
125    
126    * Color pallete fix for the instrument name display in channel
127      strip, particularly notorious on Mac OS X builds.
128    
129    * Added dialog when the application exits which lets the user
130      decide whether to keep the LinuxSampler running or not.
131    
132    
133    0.2.1  2007-12-06  Qt4 migration was complete.
134    
135    * Added recent new support of libgig for retrieving instrument
136      names in avery fast way. If libgig provides this feature, then
137      the respective name retrieval setting in qsampler is enabled by
138      default.
139    
140    * The current selected/activated channel-strip is now visually
141      evident while in the application workspace (highlighting).
142    
143    * Make View/Menubar and Toolbar shortcuts accessible even though
144      the main menu and toobar are not visible.
145    
146    * Audio routing table is initially hidden in the dialog, when
147      creating a new sampler channel.
148    
149    * README requirements and configuration notes update.
150    
151    * Disable OK button in sampler channel form and MIDI instrument
152      form if no valid engine is selected (to avoid bothering newbie
153      users with confusing LSCP syntax errors when using the UI the
154      first time).
155    
156    * Fixed creation of devices (don't try to set device parameters
157      which the user did not touch in the device creation dialog).
158    
159    * Added Windows file path support.
160    
161    * Fixed win32/qmakefile and win32/config.h so that it compiles
162      under win32.
163    
164    * Qt4 port of the application.
165    
166    
167    0.1.5  2007-10-15 Five months later a fifth is heard.
168    
169    * Added support for LSCP escape sequences to allow loading and
170      mapping instrument files with special characters in their
171      filename, as well as special characters for instrument names
172      and instrument map names (requires LSCP v1.2 on sampler side).
173    
174    * Added new button "Edit" to the channel strips, which probably
175      does exactly what you think it does: it opens an appropriate
176      instrument editor application; the channel instrument editor
177      tool is also accessible from the main menu and toolbar.
178    
179    * Application icon is now installed to ${prefix}/share/pixmaps;
180      application desktop entry file is now included in installation;
181      spec file (RPM) is now a bit more openSUSE compliant.
182    
183    * Crash fix on double-clicking on a empty instrument list.
184    
185    
186    0.1.4  2007-05-04 Almost another year has gone by.
187    
188    * Channel button colors have changed: yellow for mute and
189      cyan for solo is now the rule, but note that this color
190      highlighting is only rendered on some widget styles.
191    
192    * Master sampler volume slider/spinbox combo is now featured.
193    
194    * Initial support for sampler channel FX sends, while saving
195      the session state, only at code-level.
