ChangeLog
1.4.0 2024-11-01 A Halloween'24 Release.
- Improved color contrast on track and clip title labels, when given
track foreground and background colors are too similar in lightness.
- Clip/Split now also applies to multiple selected clips, on any other
track than current, if the split point (play-head) is found within.
- Clip Merge/Export... audio clips now taking the internal audio
resolution (ie. 64 frames/period), independent to former JACK
/Pipewire buffer-size/period.
- New Clip Mute state property introduced.
- New MIDI clip tool option: Normalize / Compress.
- Prepping up next development cycle (Qt >= 6.8)
1.3.0 2024-10-04 An Early-Fall'24 Release.
- Use timebase-aware JACK API for relocation; provide `bar_start_tick`
in JACK Transport/Timebase BBT information.
- Always reset the target bus when copying or moving an Aux-Send
insert into an audio output bus.
- Mixer: fixed dangling track removal after one of its buses has
been previously deleted."
- Fixed MIDI clip offset resizing, most especially when drag-moving
the left-edge.
- Audio Aux-sends inserted on audio output buses are not restricted
to later buses anymore; the only restriction now is that no cyclic
or loop-back routes are allowed; audio output buses are now sorted
internally in-place for correct processing order.
- Update all Aux-Send inserts whenever their respective output bus
gets renamed or deleted.
- User preference option View/Options.../General/Options/Reverse
keyboard modifiers role (Shift/Ctrl), now also applying to the
play-head and/or edit-head/tail re-positioning in the timeline.
- Plug-in name/title alias makes its debut.
- Fixed a partial port-name filtering issue on the MIDI Connections
widget.
- Last selected automation curve color is now persistent and the
default for all later automation curves.
- Connections: connector line colors are now uniquely mapped on a
(readable/output) client name basis.
1.2.0 2024-08-29 A Mid-Summer'24 Release.
- Check whether a LV2 plug-in UI no-user-resize feature is being
explicitly requested.
- Auto-backward is now strictly to the play-head position playback
was last started.
- MIDI clip editor (aka. piano-roll) undo/redo command stack is
now held at the MIDI clip instance level and thus shared and the
same to all respective linked clips; as bonus, it also survives
the main session undo/redo command stack as well.
- MIDI clip editor (View/) Drum Mode option is now persistent on a
clip basis and across sessions.
- Fixed NSM session initialization disabling auto-save and the new
session template features altogether.
- Fixed crash when removing a MIDI track that is currently set as
ghost to open MIDI clip editor(s), or it's been duplicated just
recently.
- New MIDI clip tools: Resize / Join, Split notes.
- Session templates do not impose an audio sample-rate anymore,
now being hopefully sample-rate agnostic; also, the edit-head/
tail cursors, loop-start/end and punch-in/out ranges and state
are now simply ignored on loading and saving session templates.
- MIDI tracks now show the respective audio output bus name, or
dedicated port name whether applicable, under the 'Bus' column
of main tracks left pane, above plugins list-box.
- Mixer: also highlight both input and output bus strips, directly
related to the current highlighted track.
1.1.1 2024-08-05 A Summer'24 Hotfix Release.
- Fixed an incredibly severe bug, introduced very recently, that
deletes all MIDI files belonging to active clips, when closing
and discarding a modified session without saving.
- Fixed MIDI clip recording when note-off events are missing or
not transmitted.
- Fixed a relatively old crash-bug that manifests on undoing
several free-hand drawn events (Edit/Select Mode/Edit Draw)
in the MIDI clip editor (aka. piano-roll).
1.1.0 2024-08-02 A Summer'24 Release.
- Fixed MIDI clip step-input when play-head is located beyond
or after the end of the active looping/cycle range.
- Fixed whole clip selection, implied after dragging the lasso
over the left and before the beginning of timeline.
- Clip/Unlink is now a undo/redo-able command.
- All sessions now honor their designated resolution property
(PPQN aka. ticks-per-beat) not subordinated to former ALSA
sequencer queue anymore, which runs on a higher resolution
still.
- Avoid removing MIDI Track/Channel tree items from the Files
view (eg. via direct [Del] keyboard shortcut when in focus).
- Fixed a probable old issue of spilled and duplicated shortcut
entries (Help/Shortcuts...) between main tracks/timeline and
MIDI clip editor (aka. piano-roll) windows.
- Fixed fade-in/out curve types of clips when copy-pasted over
the main tracks timeline.
- Fixed general plugin scan/cache optimization in face of new
plugins added and/or removed.
- Fixed VST3 Plug-in main/active buses channel count inventory;
also, on updating host parameters, only save and load custom
modified parameter values from current state.
- Fixed a missing display and port-name filtering issue, that
was introduced recently to the MIDI Connections widget only.
1.0.0 2024-06-21 An Unthinkable Release.
- Making up the unthinkable (aka. v1.0.0)
- General plugin scan/cache optimization.
- Improved legibility to all clip title labels (color contrast).
- Save/load the correct order and labeling of audio/MIDI send/
/return pseudo-plugin inserts.
- Fixed a display and port-name filtering issue that was present
ever since on the Connections widget.
