This is mainly a maintenance release. + See the + release notes + for details. + + + The macOS Installer has been modernized + e.g. using now Gtk 3 for Gigedit and Qt 5 for QSampler and a modern + C++11 capable compiler. Support for ancient PowerPC Macs and 32-bit Intel + Macs has been dropped for that reason. So all Mac snapshot builds starting + from today onwards will require a 64-bit Intel Mac with at least macOS 10.7 or + higher. If you still have one of those ancient Macs and can't find an old + snapshot build on our website that still works for your old Mac, then you may + write us on the + mailing list. + + + LinuxSampler 2.1.0 had been released after two years of development. + Check the + release notes + for a detailed review of what's new with LinuxSampler and friends. + + + You are working with MusE? + Then Andrew Coughlan's lscp2idf scripts + might help you to automatically extract MIDI instruments from LSCP files to + the MusE sequencer's IDF format, which can be helpful for patch changes + in that sequencer. + + + Services are back online. After reviewing the recent server incident we + came to the conclusion that the attack was fortunately quite limited. + We rolled back the system, closed the exploited security + hole and brought all services back online. In case you downloaded or updated any source files + from our svn server + between March 2nd and March 3rd, we recommend you to + delete the entire source directory and make an entire fresh checkout from + svn to avoid any issues. The svn server is now back at a clean state. + + + Important notice: + Our server had been compromised. For that reason we were forced to take most + services offline for now to protect you from accessing any compromised material. + We are currently investigating this incident and will update you accordingly. + + + Web Forum and + Bug Tracker + are back online: As you might have noticed, our + Web Forum as well as our + Bug Tracker were partly + unavailable for quite a while. It was possible to read them, but especially + registration of new user accounts were disabled (i.e. due to numerous + spam bot attacks we suffered in the past). Those issues have been + resolved and so both sites are back available and should now work entirely + as expected. + + + There is some progress regarding Gigedit's integrated + NKSP + real-time instrument script editor.
