7    
8    * More preparations for Qt5 configure build.
9    
10    * Standard scalable format (SVG) and MIME type icons support for
11      session files (*.lscp) is now being added.
12    
13    * Preparations for Qt5 migration.
14    
15    * Added include <unistd.h> to shut up gcc 4.7 build failures.
16    
17    * Make(ing) -jN parallel builds now available for the masses.
18    
19    * Fixed Makefile.in handling of installation directories to the
20      configure script eg. --datadir, --localedir.
21    
22    * Made lookup of translation files work inside a Mac OS X bundle.
23    
24    * Minor Mac OS X compilation error fix.
25    
26    * Debugging stacktrace now applies to all working threads.
27    
28    * Made lookup of translation files more robust on Windows.
29    
30    * Fixes for cross compiling and building for Windows with configure
31      and make.
32    
33    * libX11 is now being added explicitly to the build link phase,
34      as seen necessary on some bleeding-edge distros eg. Fedora 13,
35      Debian 6.
36    
37    * Moving from old deprecated Qt3'ish custom event post handling
38      into regular asynchronous signal/slot strategy. (EXPERIMENTAL)
39    
40    * Sampler channel and instrument file requester support for
41      other than GIG engine instrument files (*gig; *.dls) has
42      been added, making roads for the newer SFZ and SF2 engines
43      instrument files (*.sfz; *.sf2).
44    
45    * General standard dialog buttons layout is now in place.
46    
47    * Initial widget geometry and visibility persistence logic has
48      been slightly revised as much to avoid crash failures due to
49      wrong main widget hidden state.
50    
51    * General source tree layout and build configuration change.
52    
53    * Automatic crash-dump reports, debugger stack-traces (gdb), back-
54      traces, whatever, are being introduced as a brand new configure
55      option (--enable-stacktrace) and default enabled on debug build
56      targets (--enable-debug).
57    
58    * Attempt to fix broken instrument list model/view on Qt >= 4.6.
59    
60    * Device parameter spin-box default maximum has been set higher:
61      now at a magic 24-bit limit (16777216) instead of older 16-bit
62      (65536), possibly fixing bug #136.
63    
64    * LADISH Level 1 support has been added: SIGUSR1 signal trap
65      just makes it a shortcut to File/Save.
66    
67    * MIDI Device Status menu is disabled when no MIDI device exists;
68      a menu separator has been added.
69    
70    * Window manager's close button was found missing from the Devices
71      and Instruments widgets when on Qt >= 4.5, now fixed.
72    
73    * MIDI activity indicator on channel strips and MIDI device status
74      widgets is now implemented as a flashing green LED, instead of a
75      lame green solid background :).
76    
77    * Global configuration state is now explicitly saved/committed to
78      disk when View/Options... dialog changes are accepted and applied.
79    
80    * Czech (cs) translation added (by Pavel Fric).
81    
82    
83    0.2.2  2009-08-01  New release cycle.
84    
85    * Russian (qsampler_ru.ts by Alexandre Prokoudine) makes it as
86      brand first translation delivered. Thanks and welcomes whom
87      ever may follow ;)
88    
89    * Converted obsolete QMessageBox forms to standard buttons.
90    
91    * Added support for runtime max. voices / disk streams setting
92      (accessible from the "Options..." dialog). Those fine tuning
93      settings will be saved in case the user modified them and
94      automatically restored to the sampler when reconnecting to
95      a sampler the next time.
96    
97    * Grayed/disabled palette color group fix for dark color themes.
98    
99    * Fait-divers: desktop menu file touched to openSUSE conventions.
100    
101    * Due to some trouble with newer Qt >= 4.4 applications regarding
102      font size configuration, a new global user option is now available
103      to the rescue: View/Options... /Display/Other/Base font size
104      (default none).
105    
106    * Attempt to load Qt's own translation support and get rid of
107      the ever warning startup message, unless built in debug mode.
108      (transaction by Guido Scholz, while on qsynth-devel, thanks).
109    
110    * Only one application instance is now allowed to be up and
111      running, with immediate but graceful termination upon startup
112      iif an already running instance is detected, which will see its
113      main widget shown up automatically (Qt/X11 platform only).
114    
115    * Messages file logging makes its first long overdue appearance,
116      with user configurable settings in View/Options.../Server/Logging.
117    
118    * Bugfix in sampler channel dialog, driver combo boxes' content were
119      screwed.
120    
121    * Automatically add & remove channel strips as they were removed
122      e.g. by other frontends.
123    
124    * Refresh device management dialog when device informations changed,
125      e.g. on changes caused by other frontends
126      (fixes segfault on device changes)
127    
128    * Implemented MIDI device activity windows, selectable from the
129      "View" main menu.
130    
131    * Implemented MIDI activity indicator on channel strips.
132    
133    * Added FX Sends Dialog to Channel Strips.
134    
135    * Color pallete fix for the instrument name display in channel
136      strip, particularly notorious on Mac OS X builds.
137    
138    * Added dialog when the application exits which lets the user
139      decide whether to keep the LinuxSampler running or not.
140    
141    
142    0.2.1  2007-12-06  Qt4 migration was complete.
143    
144    * Added recent new support of libgig for retrieving instrument
145      names in avery fast way. If libgig provides this feature, then
146      the respective name retrieval setting in qsampler is enabled by
147      default.
148    
149    * The current selected/activated channel-strip is now visually
150      evident while in the application workspace (highlighting).
151    
152    * Make View/Menubar and Toolbar shortcuts accessible even though
153      the main menu and toobar are not visible.
154    
155    * Audio routing table is initially hidden in the dialog, when
156      creating a new sampler channel.
157    
158    * README requirements and configuration notes update.
159    
160    * Disable OK button in sampler channel form and MIDI instrument
161      form if no valid engine is selected (to avoid bothering newbie
162      users with confusing LSCP syntax errors when using the UI the
163      first time).
164    
165    * Fixed creation of devices (don't try to set device parameters
166      which the user did not touch in the device creation dialog).
167    
168    * Added Windows file path support.
169    
170    * Fixed win32/qmakefile and win32/config.h so that it compiles
171      under win32.
172    
173    * Qt4 port of the application.
174    
175    
176    0.1.5  2007-10-15 Five months later a fifth is heard.
177    
178    * Added support for LSCP escape sequences to allow loading and
179      mapping instrument files with special characters in their
180      filename, as well as special characters for instrument names
181      and instrument map names (requires LSCP v1.2 on sampler side).
182    
183    * Added new button "Edit" to the channel strips, which probably
184      does exactly what you think it does: it opens an appropriate
185      instrument editor application; the channel instrument editor
186      tool is also accessible from the main menu and toolbar.
187    
188    * Application icon is now installed to ${prefix}/share/pixmaps;
189      application desktop entry file is now included in installation;
190      spec file (RPM) is now a bit more openSUSE compliant.
191    
192    * Crash fix on double-clicking on a empty instrument list.
193    
194    
195    0.1.4  2007-05-04 Almost another year has gone by.
196    
197    * Channel button colors have changed: yellow for mute and
198      cyan for solo is now the rule, but note that this color
199      highlighting is only rendered on some widget styles.
200    
201    * Master sampler volume slider/spinbox combo is now featured.
202    
203    * Initial support for sampler channel FX sends, while saving
204      the session state, only at code-level.
205    
206    * Sampler channel setup dialog does not mandate for valid nor
207      existing instrument file name.
208    
209    * Revised error verbosity in general and on session load/save;
210      hour-glass wait cursor is now displayed on session load/save;
211      keyboard shortcuts changed on MIDI instruments view context;
212      improved channel strip arrangement on session open/load;
213      instrument map entry removal confirmation (as optional);
214      corrected some tooltip text strings.
