15      (EXPERIMENTAL)
16    
17    
18    0.3.1  2015-07-19  Summer'15 release frenzy.
19    
20    * Fixed configure script's Qt include directory lookup for some
21      64bit Linux flavours.
22    
23    * Prefer Qt5 over Qt4 by default with configure script.
24

27    
28    * Fixed for some strict tests for Qt4 vs. Qt5 configure builds.
29    
30    
31    0.3.0  2015-03-25  Pre-LAC2015 release frenzy.
32    
33    * Added application description as freedesktop.org's AppData.
34    
35    * Added this "Don't ask/show this again" option to some if not most
36      of the nagging warning/error message boxes.
37    
38    * Mac OS X: Fixed default path of linuxsampler binary.
39    
40    * When closing qsampler and showing the user the dialog whether to

42    
43    * Master volume slider now getting proper layout when changing its
44      main toolbar orientation.
45    
46    * Messages standard output capture has been slightly improved

55    
56    * Added support for SF2 instrument names/preset enumeration.
57

60      instruments of the same file.
61    
62    * Adjusted configure check for libgig to detect its new --libdir
63      (impolitely forcing the user now to have at least libgig 3.3.0).
64    
65    
66    0.2.3  2013-12-31  A fifth of a Jubilee.
67

94    
95    * libX11 is now being added explicitly to the build link phase,
96      as seen necessary on some bleeding-edge distros eg. Fedora 13,
97      Debian 6.
98    
99    * Moving from old deprecated Qt3'ish custom event post handling
100      into regular asynchronous signal/slot strategy.
101    
102    * Sampler channel and instrument file requester support for
103      other than GIG engine instrument files (*gig; *.dls) has
104      been added, making roads for the newer SFZ and SF2 engines
105      instrument files (*.sfz; *.sf2).
106    
107    * General standard dialog buttons layout is now in place.
108    
109    * Initial widget geometry and visibility persistence logic has

113    * General source tree layout and build configuration change.
114    
115    * Automatic crash-dump reports, debugger stack-traces (gdb), back-
116      traces, whatever, are being introduced as a brand new configure
117      option (--enable-stacktrace) and default enabled on debug build
118      targets (--enable-debug).
119    
120    * Attempt to fix broken instrument list model/view on Qt >= 4.6.
121    
122    * Device parameter spin-box default maximum has been set higher:
123      now at a magic 24-bit limit (16777216) instead of older 16-bit
124      (65536), possibly fixing bug #136.
125    
126    * LADISH Level 1 support has been added: SIGUSR1 signal trap
127      just makes it a shortcut to File/Save.
128    
129    * MIDI Device Status menu is disabled when no MIDI device exists;
130      a menu separator has been added.
131    
132    * Window manager's close button was found missing from the Devices
133      and Instruments widgets when on Qt >= 4.5, now fixed.
134    
135    * MIDI activity indicator on channel strips and MIDI device status
136      widgets is now implemented as a flashing green LED, instead of a
137      lame green solid background :).
138    
139    * Global configuration state is now explicitly saved/committed to
140      disk when View/Options... dialog changes are accepted and applied.
141    
142    * Czech (cs) translation added (by Pavel Fric).
143    
144    
145    0.2.2  2009-08-01  New release cycle.
146    
147    * Russian (qsampler_ru.ts by Alexandre Prokoudine) makes it as
148      brand first translation delivered. Thanks and welcomes whom
149      ever may follow ;)
150    
151    * Converted obsolete QMessageBox forms to standard buttons.
152    
153    * Added support for runtime max. voices / disk streams setting
154      (accessible from the "Options..." dialog). Those fine tuning
155      settings will be saved in case the user modified them and
156      automatically restored to the sampler when reconnecting to
157      a sampler the next time.
158    
159    * Grayed/disabled palette color group fix for dark color themes.
160    
161    * Fait-divers: desktop menu file touched to openSUSE conventions.
162    
163    * Due to some trouble with newer Qt >= 4.4 applications regarding
164      font size configuration, a new global user option is now available
165      to the rescue: View/Options... /Display/Other/Base font size
166      (default none).
167    
168    * Attempt to load Qt's own translation support and get rid of
169      the ever warning startup message, unless built in debug mode.
170      (transaction by Guido Scholz, while on qsynth-devel, thanks).
171    
172    * Only one application instance is now allowed to be up and
173      running, with immediate but graceful termination upon startup
174      iif an already running instance is detected, which will see its
175      main widget shown up automatically (Qt/X11 platform only).
176    
177    * Messages file logging makes its first long overdue appearance,
178      with user configurable settings in View/Options.../Server/Logging.
179    
180    * Bugfix in sampler channel dialog, driver combo boxes' content were
181      screwed.
182    
183    * Automatically add & remove channel strips as they were removed
184      e.g. by other frontends.
185    
186    * Refresh device management dialog when device informations changed,
187      e.g. on changes caused by other frontends
188      (fixes segfault on device changes)
189    
190    * Implemented MIDI device activity windows, selectable from the
191      "View" main menu.
192    
193    * Implemented MIDI activity indicator on channel strips.
194    
195    * Added FX Sends Dialog to Channel Strips.
196    
197    * Color pallete fix for the instrument name display in channel
198      strip, particularly notorious on Mac OS X builds.
199    
200    * Added dialog when the application exits which lets the user
201      decide whether to keep the LinuxSampler running or not.
202    
203    
204    0.2.1  2007-12-06  Qt4 migration was complete.
205    
206    * Added recent new support of libgig for retrieving instrument
207      names in avery fast way. If libgig provides this feature, then
208      the respective name retrieval setting in qsampler is enabled by
209      default.
210    
211    * The current selected/activated channel-strip is now visually
212      evident while in the application workspace (highlighting).
213    
214    * Make View/Menubar and Toolbar shortcuts accessible even though
215      the main menu and toobar are not visible.
216    
217    * Audio routing table is initially hidden in the dialog, when
218      creating a new sampler channel.
219    
220    * README requirements and configuration notes update.
221    
222    * Disable OK button in sampler channel form and MIDI instrument
223      form if no valid engine is selected (to avoid bothering newbie
224      users with confusing LSCP syntax errors when using the UI the
225      first time).
226    
227    * Fixed creation of devices (don't try to set device parameters
228      which the user did not touch in the device creation dialog).
229    
230    * Added Windows file path support.
231    
232    * Fixed win32/qmakefile and win32/config.h so that it compiles
233      under win32.
234    
235    * Qt4 port of the application.
236    
237    
238    0.1.5  2007-10-15 Five months later a fifth is heard.
239    
240    * Added support for LSCP escape sequences to allow loading and
241      mapping instrument files with special characters in their
242      filename, as well as special characters for instrument names
243      and instrument map names (requires LSCP v1.2 on sampler side).
244    
245    * Added new button "Edit" to the channel strips, which probably
246      does exactly what you think it does: it opens an appropriate
247      instrument editor application; the channel instrument editor
248      tool is also accessible from the main menu and toolbar.
249    
250    * Application icon is now installed to ${prefix}/share/pixmaps;
251      application desktop entry file is now included in installation;
252      spec file (RPM) is now a bit more openSUSE compliant.
253

256    
257    0.1.4  2007-05-04 Almost another year has gone by.
258    
259    * Channel button colors have changed: yellow for mute and
260      cyan for solo is now the rule, but note that this color
261      highlighting is only rendered on some widget styles.
262    
263    * Master sampler volume slider/spinbox combo is now featured.
264    
265    * Initial support for sampler channel FX sends, while saving
266      the session state, only at code-level.
267    
268    * Sampler channel setup dialog does not mandate for valid nor
269      existing instrument file name.
