Sep 5, 2011
  • Autotools build resulted in the wrong version number for libfluidsynth.so (reported by plcl, Takashi Iwai)
  • One symbol was dropped from libfluidsynth.so - this symbol was not part of the public API though. (reported by Alessio Treglia)
  • Windows 64 bit: Wrong prototype declaration for MIDI (reported by Graham Goode)
  • JACK: Using jack_free instead of free when needed. Note that this might require a later version of JACK than previously. (reported by Graham Goode)

  • Use glib utility function for shell parsing (ticket #44) [diwic]
  • Allow in-memory midi file to be loaded by the midi engine [Matt Giuca]
  • fluid_synth_all_notes_off and fluid_synth_all_sounds_off can now silence all channels at once, and are now public API functions. [jimmy, diwic]
  • Allow channels to change state between melodic and drum channels [jimmy]
  • support for "audio.coreaudio.device" option in Mac OSX CoreAudio driver [plcl]

  • CMake build system fix for ticket #90: install dirs configurable [plcl]
  • New macro: unset_pkg_config() [plcl]
  • The unset() command requires CMake 2.6.3 or newer [plcl]
  • fixed creation of the file "fluidsynth.pc", using the new *_INSTALL_DIR variables [plcl]

  • renamed LT_VERSION_* variables as LIB_VERSION_* [plcl]
  • build system fixes for OS/2 [KO Myung-Hun]

  • Fix CoreAudio build problem [plcl, reported by Sven Meier]
  • fix for ticket #97 : Latest fluid_midi.c fails to build under MSVC 2010 [plcl]
  • gcc flags again: -Wno-vla removed because it is not supported by an Apple compiler [plcl]

  • Bug fixes (misc):
  • Do not use loop noise floor if sample continues in release phase (ticket #93) [diwic, reported by Graham Goode]
  • Prevent the IIR filter from loud pops on quick frequency changes (ticket #82) [diwic]

  • Better message when substituting presets, and store XG LSB changes even in drum mode. [diwic]
  • Fix notes slightly off pitch (with floats and short loops) [diwic]
  • fix for bug "Undefined behavior parsing a MIDI file which unexpectedly ends" (ticket #92) [plcl, reported by Matt Giuca]
