6  CVS HEAD  SVN TRUNK
7    
8    * Made lookup of translation files work inside a Mac OS X bundle
9    
10    * Minor Mac OS X compilation error fix
11    
12    * Debugging stacktrace now applies to all working threads.
13    
14    * Made lookup of translation files more robust on Windows
15    
16    * Fixes for cross compiling and building for Windows with configure
17      and make.
18    
19    * libX11 is now being added explicitly to the build link phase,
20      as seen necessary on some bleeding-edge distros eg. Fedora 13,
21      Debian 6.
22    
23    * Moving from old deprecated Qt3'ish custom event post handling
24      into regular asynchronous signal/slot strategy. (EXPERIMENTAL)
25    
26    * Sampler channel and instrument file requester support for
27      other than GIG engine instrument files (*gig; *.dls) has
28      been added, making roads for the newer SFZ and SF2 engines
29      instrument files (*.sfz; *.sf2).
30    
31    * General standard dialog buttons layout is now in place.
32    
33    * Initial widget geometry and visibility persistence logic has
34      been slightly revised as much to avoid crash failures due to
35      wrong main widget hidden state.
36    
37    * General source tree layout and build configuration change.
38    
39    * Automatic crash-dump reports, debugger stack-traces (gdb), back-
40      traces, whatever, are being introduced as a brand new configure
41      option (--enable-stacktrace) and default enabled on debug build
42      targets (--enable-debug).
43    
44    * Attempt to fix broken instrument list model/view on Qt >= 4.6.
45    
46    * Device parameter spin-box default maximum has been set higher:
47      now at a magic 24-bit limit (16777216) instead of older 16-bit
48      (65536), possibly fixing bug #136.
49    
50    * LADISH Level 1 support has been added: SIGUSR1 signal trap
51      just makes it a shortcut to File/Save.
52    
53    * MIDI Device Status menu is disabled when no MIDI device exists;
54      a menu separator has been added.
55    
56    * Window manager's close button was found missing from the Devices
57      and Instruments widgets when on Qt >= 4.5, now fixed.
58    
59    * MIDI activity indicator on channel strips and MIDI device status
60      widgets is now implemented as a flashing green LED, instead of a
61      lame green solid background :).
62    
63    * Global configuration state is now explicitly saved/committed to
64      disk when View/Options... dialog changes are accepted and applied.
65    
66    * Czech (cs) translation added (by Pavel Fric).
67    
68    
69    0.2.2  2009-08-01  New release cycle.
70    
71    * Russian (qsampler_ru.ts by Alexandre Prokoudine) makes it as
72      brand first translation delivered. Thanks and welcomes whom
73      ever may follow ;)
74    
75    * Converted obsolete QMessageBox forms to standard buttons.
76    
77    * Added support for runtime max. voices / disk streams setting
78      (accessible from the "Options..." dialog). Those fine tuning
79      settings will be saved in case the user modified them and
80      automatically restored to the sampler when reconnecting to
81      a sampler the next time.
82    
83    * Grayed/disabled palette color group fix for dark color themes.
84    
85    * Fait-divers: desktop menu file touched to openSUSE conventions.
86    
87    * Due to some trouble with newer Qt >= 4.4 applications regarding
88      font size configuration, a new global user option is now available
89      to the rescue: View/Options... /Display/Other/Base font size
90      (default none).
91    
92    * Attempt to load Qt's own translation support and get rid of
93      the ever warning startup message, unless built in debug mode.
94      (transaction by Guido Scholz, while on qsynth-devel, thanks).
95    
96    * Only one application instance is now allowed to be up and
97      running, with immediate but graceful termination upon startup
98      iif an already running instance is detected, which will see its
99      main widget shown up automatically (Qt/X11 platform only).
100    
101    * Messages file logging makes its first long overdue appearance,
102      with user configurable settings in View/Options.../Server/Logging.
103    
104    * Bugfix in sampler channel dialog, driver combo boxes' content were
105      screwed.
106    
107    * Automatically add & remove channel strips as they were removed
108      e.g. by other frontends.
109    
110    * Refresh device management dialog when device informations changed,
111      e.g. on changes caused by other frontends
112      (fixes segfault on device changes)
113    
114    * Implemented MIDI device activity windows, selectable from the
115      "View" main menu.
116    
117    * Implemented MIDI activity indicator on channel strips.
118    
119    * Added FX Sends Dialog to Channel Strips.
120    
121    * Color pallete fix for the instrument name display in channel
122      strip, particularly notorious on Mac OS X builds.
123    
124    * Added dialog when the application exits which lets the user
125      decide whether to keep the LinuxSampler running or not.
126    
127    
128    0.2.1  2007-12-06  Qt4 migration was complete.
129    
130    * Added recent new support of libgig for retrieving instrument
131      names in avery fast way. If libgig provides this feature, then
132      the respective name retrieval setting in qsampler is enabled by
133      default.
134    
135    * The current selected/activated channel-strip is now visually
136      evident while in the application workspace (highlighting).
137    
138    * Make View/Menubar and Toolbar shortcuts accessible even though
139      the main menu and toobar are not visible.
140    
141    * Audio routing table is initially hidden in the dialog, when
142      creating a new sampler channel.
143    
144    * README requirements and configuration notes update.
145    
146    * Disable OK button in sampler channel form and MIDI instrument
147      form if no valid engine is selected (to avoid bothering newbie
148      users with confusing LSCP syntax errors when using the UI the
149      first time).
150    
151    * Fixed creation of devices (don't try to set device parameters
152      which the user did not touch in the device creation dialog).
153    
154    * Added Windows file path support.
155    
156    * Fixed win32/qmakefile and win32/config.h so that it compiles
157      under win32.
158    
159    * Qt4 port of the application.
160    
161    
162    0.1.5  2007-10-15 Five months later a fifth is heard.
163    
164    * Added support for LSCP escape sequences to allow loading and
165      mapping instrument files with special characters in their
166      filename, as well as special characters for instrument names
167      and instrument map names (requires LSCP v1.2 on sampler side).
168    
169    * Added new button "Edit" to the channel strips, which probably
170      does exactly what you think it does: it opens an appropriate
171      instrument editor application; the channel instrument editor
172      tool is also accessible from the main menu and toolbar.
173    
174    * Application icon is now installed to ${prefix}/share/pixmaps;
175      application desktop entry file is now included in installation;
176      spec file (RPM) is now a bit more openSUSE compliant.
177    
178    * Crash fix on double-clicking on a empty instrument list.
179    
180    
181    0.1.4  2007-05-04 Almost another year has gone by.
182    
183    * Channel button colors have changed: yellow for mute and
184      cyan for solo is now the rule, but note that this color
185      highlighting is only rendered on some widget styles.
186    
187    * Master sampler volume slider/spinbox combo is now featured.
188    
189    * Initial support for sampler channel FX sends, while saving
190      the session state, only at code-level.
191    
192    * Sampler channel setup dialog does not mandate for valid nor
193      existing instrument file name.
194    
195    * Revised error verbosity in general and on session load/save;
196      hour-glass wait cursor is now displayed on session load/save;
197      keyboard shortcuts changed on MIDI instruments view context;
198      improved channel strip arrangement on session open/load;
199      instrument map entry removal confirmation (as optional);
200      corrected some tooltip text strings.
201    
202    * Most top-level widgets were missing the normal-widget flag,
203      which were causing some sticky size behavior while on some
204      window managers.
205    
206    * Added preliminary MIDI instrument mapping support; now
207      with an instrument list widget and editing capabilities;
208      MIDI instrumeent map program numbers are now displayed in
209      the range 1-128, instead of the internal 0-127.
210
