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