*** MusE 4.2 ***
03.09.2023
- Fluidsynth MESS: Fixed deprecated function calls at version >= 2.2 (Tim)
31.08.2023
- Fixed issue 1106: Running scripts in midi editors takes waaay too long. (Tim)
In Scripts::executeScript(): Changed from applyOperation for each event
which is very slow, to applyOperationGroup just once for the whole lot.
30.08.2023
- Fixed issue 1238: Not responding to program MSB from inputs. (Tim)
Ancient bug, 20 years? Problem with Midi Filter and midiFilterCtrlxxx globals.
28.08.2023
* New: Midi remote control feature redesigned. (Tim)
Now with learning, port, channel, value type trigger/toggle/momentary, global/song settings.
- Also rewrote midi-to-audio controller assignment learning code, to follow these changes.
03.08.2023
- Fixed issue 1233: RtAudio 6 compatibility. (Tim)
Tested OK with RtAudio 6.0.1
31.07.2023
- Fixed midi remote control: Don't accept note-offs. (Tim)
Symptoms were: Double step-record entries, transport record toggling, double play etc.
- Changed all references to the app's url, help url etc. (Website has changed).
Created ORGANIZATION_URL, ORGANIZATION_HELP_URL, ORGANIZATION_CODE_REPO_URL in config.h.in
26.07.2023
- Fixed broken midi to logarithmic audio controller assignment, such as volume. (Tim)
06.07.2023
- Hexfloat values: Rework code with help from donarturo11. (Tim)
Avoid per-thread thread-safe locale calls (uselocale etc). Not available on mingw for ex.
17.06.2023
- Fixed: LV2 Synths like Odin-II not responding to automation since around 29.04.2023. (Tim)
15.06.2023
- Fixed issue 1121: Undefined symbol ipatch_close. (Tim)
ipatch_close was introduced in libinstpatch 1.1.0
- Changed: Midi export: Turn off 'export zero velocity note-offs' setting by default.
13.06.2023
- Fixed: File menu > close hanging. Further to 13.05.2023 (Tim)
Check if immediate deletions took place. Also, in track info panel, NULL the strip widgets
BEFORE deleting them, instead of deleting then nulling.
12.06.2023
- Oops. Fixed mistake at 15.05.2023: Link libinstpatch with 'muse' module, not 'core'. (Tim)
11.06.2023
- Fixed issue 1120 "Cannot clone parts". (Tim)
Several pieces of code were fixed, including one 10-year-old mistake.
Tested OK copy/paste/clone with several different tracks types.
29.05.2023
- Fixed: Still more crashes / bad behaviour on song (re)load. Further to 25.05.2023. (Tim)
Fix at 13.05.2023 (wait for top level widgets to be deleted before continuing with load) was good
but needed to include more than just the top levels. Child widget destructors are called AFTER
the parent. So there was no choice - add SOME of those widgets to the list of pending deletes.
Specifically, widgets connected to external signals heartBeat timer, songChanged, configChanged.
- Fixed: Another crash in Master Editor: Removed members 'hscroll' and 'vscroll' which were hiding
base MidiEditor versions causing crash. Also initialize base hscroll, vscroll, time to null.
26.05.2023
- Fixed: DSSI plugins: Crash with plugins that have run_multiple_synths(). (Tim)
The function was not being called correctly, valid arrays must be passed even if empty.
25.05.2023
- Fixed: More crashes / bad behaviour during song (re)loading. Further to 08.05.2023. (Tim)
Eliminated QPointer<MasterEdit> in class MusE. Bug was pre-existing (not me).
The pointer was failing to nullify itself soon enough, causing crashes and/or errors like:
"QMdiArea::setActiveSubWindow: window is not inside workspace" and "unknown tag <...> at line xxxx".
- Fixed: Rewrote several functions in class MusE for more safety. readToplevels() and accompanying
findOpenEditor(), startDrumEditor(), startMasterEditor(), startWaveEditor(), startPianoroll().
It was too easy for readToplevels() to mess up badly if it failed starting an editor.
- Fixed: Some, possibly all, ancient intermittent crashes when recording or playing wave tracks.
Our SndFile class used a reference counting system but it was non-atomic and not thread-safe.
Code disassembly revealed timing holes where other threads could wreak havoc.
Replaced with atomic reference counter and atomic pointer to SndFile.
Carefully rearranged and rewrote the reference counting system. Testing stable so far...
- Fixed: Transport completely unresponsive upon song load, intermittent. (My fault long ago).
Do not call audioPrefetch->msgSeek() in seqStart() since it's already initiated by audio start.
It was a non-no: Two different threads - gui and audio - had put seek messages into the prefetch
message pipe. The result was chaos with 'seekCount' on the prefetch end of the pipe.
Reset prefetch 'seekCount' to zero in AudioPrefetch::start(). In case 'seekCount' ever messes up
again, this allows simply reloading a song, or menu > 'Restart Audio', to fix the problem.
Disk prefetch thread is NO LONGER REALTIME! It is now a default NORMAL thread. (My fault long ago).
Rewrote MusE::seqStart() so prefetch is started before audio. Also, wait until prefetch is running!
TESTED OK playing and recording complex songs. The prefetch cache maintained a high fill level.
TODO: Now that disk prefetch thread is no longer realtime, replace its pthreads with QThread,
for easier cross-compatibility!
TO FIX: A small bug where the transport sometimes fails to return to the saved place on song load.
- Fixed: Subtle error: Editors wouldn't open multiple parts sometimes.
Failed if another editor contained the same number of parts AND at least one of the same parts.
It was a pre-existing bug in MusE::findOpenEditor() (not me).
17.05.2023
- Fixed serious typo at 13.05.2023: On load, midi config wasn't cleared, causing crashes. (Tim)
16.05.2023
- Fixed (maybe): LV2: Missing link with libserd. (Tim)
Found this at opensuse live build log/multimedia:proaudio/muse/openSUSE_Tumbleweed/x86_64:
"undefined reference to symbol 'serd_node_new_file_uri'"
Only one serd call was added in 2015 by danvd. A later neglect by me perhaps?
15.05.2023:
- Fixed: Crashes with certain plugins that use libinstpatch (Fluida lv2 etc). (Tim)
It was recommended to call ipatch_init() in the main app. This was added.
13.05.2023:
- Rewrite of 08.05.2023: Use alternate method for top level closing (wait for destroyed signals). (Tim)
Qt bug reports response told me not to do it the other way.
- Fixed: Pre-existing long-time crashes pressing Ctrl-N (New) -O (Open) etc. more than once rapidly.
Install mechanism to ignore such multiple actions while in the middle of clearing/loading a song.
09.05.2023:
- LV2: Slight tweak: When a control port's maximum is not specified, set to 1 instead of 0. (Tim)
TODO: It's likely intended to allow user settable min and max, but we have no mechanism to let them.
08.05.2023:
- Fixed: Ancient crashes when loading another song or file > new or file > close. (Tim)
In MusE::clearSong(), after calling close() on the windows (which may be marked as delete-on-close),
make freakin' sure to call "qApp->sendPostedEvents(nullptr, QEvent::DeferredDelete)".
It turns out that delete-on-close calls deleteLater() - NOT delete!
It also turns out that there's a kind of Qt bug where you cannot simply call sendPostedEvents(0, 0).
See comments in MusE::clearSong() about how difficult this was, and how the solution was found.
29.04.2023:
- Fixed: Synths/plugins: Crashes in getData()/apply(). Caused by 14.04 changes. (Tim)
Oops. Reinstate check for zero slice size in LV2 VST DSSI ::getData(), and PluginI::apply().
- Fixed: VST: Crashes revealed by Pianoteq 8. (Tim)
Remove idling code in audioMasterUpdateDisplay and move it to audioMasterIdle, in the callback.
In VstNativeEditor, add a close() function and call it from destructor. Remove code from closeEvent().
28.04.2023:
- Revert: Pull 1099: "Move event list editor from dock to window." (Tim)
This was kinda not good. The list editor really belongs in a dock beside the pr/drum editor
as a 'companion' since highlighting notes is supposed to work both ways. It is more
convenient to have the two editors side-by-side rather than having the event list editor
in a separate tab or floating. The pull code was kept. A define in cobject.h switches
between the pull being off or on. It is called MOVE_LISTEDIT_FROM_DOCK_TO_WINDOW_PULL1099.
- Fixed: Event List Editor: (When pull 1099 is applied) Added missing 'Display' menu. (Tim)
Allows to 'float' the event list editor window.
- Fixed issue 1119: Routing doesn't work with utf-8 symbols in names. (Tim)
Changed all QString::toLatin1()/tolocal8Bit() usages to QString::toUtf8() in the following files so far:
jack.cpp, jackmidi.cpp, route.cpp, routepopup.cpp.
TODO: CHECK: Likely (many) more to do, EXCEPT some parts like xml, where we want SOME latin1 compatibility.
25.04.2023:
- Follow-ups to 14.04.2023: More fixes/features. (Tim)
* NEW: Export midi: When exporting only selected parts, a new option in the import/export settings
dialog allows alignment of the exported parts to bar zero (removes unused space to the left).
- Fixed crashes: Certain operations, for example when turning off grid after markers added.
Lambda from MasterEdit.cpp was still active after MasterEdit closed and deleted!
connect(MusEGlobal::muse, &MusE::configChanged, [this]() { configChanged(); } );
Fixed all places using lambda connections from outside. Delete the connections in the destructors.
Qt docs warn that such connections are NOT automatically deleted.
- Fixed: Midi export: Old, slight timing mistake in 14-bit/(N)RPN/Patch controller event export times.
Was sending each component event at t, t + 1, t + 2 etc. All component events should be at the same time.
- Fixed: Midi playback and midi export: Some or all (N)RPN controller graph values were being discarded.
Was a problem with optimization in MPEventList::add(). Re-wrote to be less strictly optimizing.
- Fixed: Midi import, export, and recording: Channel-less event types were not sorted correctly in the event list.
In MEvent::operator<(), do not compare channels if either event is channel-less.
- Fixed: Midi import, export, and recording: Patch event types were not sorted correctly in the event list.
In MEvent::sortingWeight(), ensure high and low bank controller events come before program events.
- Fixed: Midi recording and midi import: Composite controllers like (N)RPN and Patch were mis-read as non-composite.
Re-wrote ending (optimizing) part of midi.cpp:buildMidiEventList(). Handle controllers separately than other events.
- Fixed: Midi export: Do not export events that are outside part borders.
- Refine spamatica's "Fixed compatibility with qt5.9.5" commit 489034a.
- Refine spamatica's "Fixed another qt5.9.5 compatibility issue" commit a335362.
- Refine spamatica's "fixed another compat build error" commit 3c6777f.
22.04.2023:
- Briefly show "Project saved." message on status bar after project has been saved (rj)
16.04.2023
- From 14.04: Old songs' automation values not loading correctly in locales other than 'C'. (Tim)
Oops, force c locale to 'C' in museStringFromDouble() and museStringToDouble().
Using a per-thread thread-safe technique with uselocale() et al.
15.04.2023
- From 14.04: Unable to enter values in entry boxes in locales other than 'C'. (Tim)
Oops, add locale in DoubleLabel::valueFromText(). Test OK with locale = fr.
14.04.2023
* Spring 2023 large fixes and features: (Tim)
* NEW: Soft bypass support for plugins.
Different types are supported: True soft bypass controller (LV2, future VST3),
soft bypass function with no controller (VST2), emulated bypass controller (TODO),
and regular emulated bypass with no controller (LADSPA, DSSI etc.).
When a plugin is soft bypassed we (must) let it run ALWAYS so that the plugin handles
all the bypassing itself (we trust - hope - it will be 'lighter' CPU usage).
The generic plugin UI 'Bypass' button overrides any soft bypass controller graph.
* NEW: Generic plugin UI 'Off' button. This completely bypasses the plugin even if
it has soft bypass. It is the ultimate 'turn off' mechanism, guaranteed to
bypass all processing, whereas 'Bypass' may still process if it's soft.
* NEW: Some entry boxes (log, linear) now support metric suffixes, where appropriate.
You can type "0.000001234" or "1.234u", and "12345" or "12.345K" for example.
* NEW: Value units. Where supported (LV2), units will be shown in the edit boxes
such as Hz, dB, ms etc. Don't be alarmed if you see things like "1.234K ms".
I just had to keep the units and the metric suffixes separate, it was the only way.
LV2 has unit conversions, but they were not quite robust enough to do what I wanted.
Plus when units change say from "s" to "min", then our slider/meter scales would show
wrong units and would have to dynamically change with the units. Very difficult.
* NEW: Hexadecimal floating point storage. Preserves 100% accuracy in song files.
Used where appropriate (too many decimal digits).
Both hex and decimal values can be mixed (manual decimal entry for example).
Applied to audio controller values and graphs for now. More later.
C/C++ have supported hex floats for many years. But Qt doesn't seem to natively.
* NEW: Export midi selected visible tracks only. In main app menu.
* NEW: Export midi selected parts on visible tracks only. In main app menu.
* NEW: LV2 midi-out support added. Supports things like midi arpeggiators, midi effects etc.
Fixed: VST midi-out: Recording times were way off. (Midi arpeggiators, midi effects etc.)
Added: Latency correction for VST midi-out.
Fixed: Crash in undo/redo system: Major regression several months ago.
For example delete a part or track, then undo redo etc. caused crash.
Rewrote undo's clearDelete() and deleteUndoOp() routines.
Fixed: Crash when removing or replacing plugins from rack.
Some heavy graphics moves were being done in realtime thread.
Fixed: Crash in track list TList::mouseReleaseEvent() when track is NULL.
Fixed: Crash in midi/synth configuration dialog when clicking on port device column.
Popup's action text was being read AFTER the popup was deleted.
Seems to be my fault from 2019 according to annotations?
Fixed: Crashes in remaining places calling wrong undo constructor. See 06.12.2022
Fixed: Occasional show-stopping glitch when recording or live-monitoring midi:
Notes would become badly timed, very old notes would play along with new ones in a
weird 'cycling' effect, requiring restart.
Replaced old class MidiRecFifo with more recent LockFreeMPSCRingBuffer<MidiRecordEvent>.
Caught old class skipping read position and mis-reporting the size, leaving a messed-up state.
It was concluded that this may have been an concurrency/atomic problem.
LockFreeMPSCRingBuffer was added few years ago. It has worked flawlessly so far.
Stack Exchange was consulted on the old class and whether the newer FIFO was really sound.
Old class agreed bad - use of 'volatile'. New class favourable but with TOC-TOU warnings.
Hopefully this cures the bug. Remains to be seen again - or not?
Fixed: Pianoroll and drum editor: Copy/paste broken:
Oops! Pasted from bar 0 instead of first copied note.
Rewrote pasting routines in functions.cpp
Fixed: When track off could not click on mixer strip expand arrow icon or double click name.
Don't disable the track mixer strip label.
Fixed: 'Fine' slider Shift key operation (was making it coarse not fine, and
plugin sliders were messed up - moving way too much when Shift held).
Fixed: Midi event buffers overflow when a synth track's synth is 'unavailable'.
Flush ring buffers and device event lists in SynthI::getData().
Fixed: Editors: Opening multiple parts in editor (via arranger right-click popup)
also caused track rename dialog to pop up.
Do not respond to actions that have no integer data value.
Fixed: Wave Editor: Could not open multiple parts (via arranger right-click popup).
Fixed: Audio track automation graphs: Copying+pasting points from multiple controllers:
Oops. They were accumulating in each target controller graph as paste progressed.
It was a problem in functions.cpp : readAudioAutomation().
Fixed: All places using MidiDevice::openFlags() to check if read/write is OK
have been changed to use MidiDevice::readEnable()/writeEnable().
This is because openFlags() are the DESIRED flags whereas readEnable()/writeEnable()
indicate whether the device was ACTUALLY successful in opening in read/write mode.
So it's more faithful to the read/write columns of Devices list in Midi Config dialog.
* Major plugin/controller/logarithmic/UI changes: (Tim)
Fixed broken plugin/synth logarithmic audio controls, edit boxes, and graphs.
Significant streamlining and redesign of classes Meter, Slider, DRange, DoubleLabel,
mixer strips AStrip and MStrip, generic plugin UI, and several others.
Support logarithmic and dB controller streams.
Previously mixer strips and generic plugin UI were responsible for all conversions
to and from log, dB, or integer values, to be shown in sliders, meters, and boxes.
Now all of these widgets operate independently and do all conversions themselves.
In other words they simply 'hook onto' a controller stream with no further work
required by the parent. That cleaned up strips and generic plugin UI code
A WHOLE LOT.
Significant speed optimizations: Classes Meter, Slider, DRange, and DoubleLabel
are now highly optimized for drawing. They use QRegion for fine-grained
updating and painting. Most paths and rectangles are pre-calculated in
resizeEvent() instead of paintEvent(). In particular, Meter is one of the
few large widgets that is constantly being animated, and it is very fast now.
Fixed weak support for rare 'reverse' controllers where minimum is greater than maximum.
(AlienWah plugin 'phase control' for example.)
When the minimum slider and minimum meter Global Settings differ, meter scales
are automatically shown. They MUST be shown to avoid the misconception
that the meter scale is the same as the slider scale, which it is not!
Replaced generic plugin UI meter output edit boxes (useless) with faster labels.
06.12.2022
* Fixed issue with wrong constructor being instantiated when clicking
rec-arm and input monitor when having multiple tracks selected (rj)
21.11.2022
* Reworded quit and load new dialogs to make it clearer that
data will be discarded (rj)
* Dirty flag was not kept when cancelling the load New operation (rj)
14.11.2022
- Automation READ mode: Play: Re-enable graph streams when controls released. (Tim)
Also re-enabe the streams if the graph is edited.
10.11.2022
- Fix issue 1088: Cannot copy/paste parts. Fix previous 9/24/22 fix. (Tim)
Was slight problem in parseArrangerPasteXml().
27.10.2022
* Fix open editor in tab or new window behavior
* Move List Editor from dock to window
23.10.2022
* Changed project create default to make a sub directory (rj)
10.07.2022
* Midi assign and mixer overhaul, fixes: (Tim)
* New: Midi control assignment: Mute and Solo buttons can now be assigned to.
Note this does NOT mean that Mute and Solo have actual controller graphs,
it was decided against that. (A request from forums.)
* New: Midi control assignment: Two assignment types now available in the
Midi Control dialog: Track, which dedicates assignments to a single track,
and Song which assigns to ANY tracks when they are selected.
Availability of this new option varies with selected target control,
for example only Volume and Pan audio controllers can be set to Song
assignment type because they are the only ones common to ALL audio tracks,
and other controllers mean different things to different tracks.
* New: Momentary Mute and Solo buttons! Enable them in Global Settings or via
the mixer or strip menus.
Mixer: Fixed bug: When empty would not add any new tracks.
Mixer: Ensure mixer is always large enough to show 'Create' and 'View' menus.
Mixer strips: Code cleanup: Replaced Strip::mousePress/Release/MoveEvent
with track name label handling and context event hadling because all the Qt
standard controls on the strip were passing events to the strip. Rewrote
strip popup menus, most stuff moved into the mixer View menu.
19.06.2022
* MORE Complete audio automation graphs redesign (Part 2): (Tim)
* New: Audio automation graphs: Choice of DISCRETE or INTERPOLATED points.
Buttons on toolbar select which mode to draw new points. Works per-point!
A context menu item allows to change mode of all selected points.
Role of 'interpolated' has been greatly reduced to that of just drawing,
and all control recording, including external midi, is DISCRETE now.
DISCRETE points are drawn as squares. INTERPOLATED points are drawn as circles.
Note, INTERPOLATED mode only works for controllers that support it, such as
non-integer or logarithmic. TODO: Make an integer interpolator so that
INTERPOLATED works even on DISCRETE graphs!
* New: LATCH automation mode, in addition to OFF, READ, TOUCH, WRITE modes.
* New: Audio automation graphs: "Align all selected to point" context menu item.
Vertically aligns selected points to the clicked point.
* New: Adjustable graph point size. In Global Settings > GUI tab.
* New: Buttons on toolbar turn the graph points on and off !
Allows to see the graphs more clearly.
* New: Toolbar button avoids redundant recorded straight line automation points.
- Reworked graph point hit detection and drawing. Precisely accurate now.
- Midi controller graphs: Controllers popup menu: Midi controllers that are
mapped to (synthesizer) audio control ports have their own heading now,
to make it much clearer that they exist and what they do.
- Fixed old bug in Audio::processMidi(): When a midi controller
was assigned to an audio controller, operating the midi control would
suddenly leave the audio controls inoperative. Likely happened years
ago when time-stamp mechanism changed, this area was neglected.
- Fixed Midi-to-Audio controller assignment not recording properly.
Recorded frames were way off. Likely same reason as above.
- Fixed audio automation 'WRITE' mode not storing initial value and not
disabling the controller streams, when going from stop to play.
Seems to have been broken for many years (since first github checkin?)
- Eliminated old ugly HACK in class CtrlList: Removed _guiUpdatePending and support.
Replaced (integrated) with an IPC mechanism.
- Switched all code from muse_val2dbr (rounded) to new muse_val2db (unrounded).
- Fixed some memory leaks in class UndoList when clearing the list. Allocated items
were not being deleted.
- As requested: Uncluttered the Arranger popup context menu by moving audio
automation items into a sub-menu.
- Bumped up songfile version number to ensure toolbars are updated correctly.
12.06.2022
- Fix clone parts not loading correctly. Oops, was a typo at 17.04.2022 (Tim)
04.05.2022
- Reverse script that reverses MIDI and DRUM parts incl controllers. (Staffan)
03.05.2022
- Reuploaded script (Fix issue 1037: Time stretching/shrinking for midi/drum parts.) (Staffan)
26.04.2022
- Added shortcut (meta+h) for toggling track height. If any track is larger
than minimum, the first press will minimize all tracks, second press will
expand all tracks to the alternate size, which is now settable in the
configuration (rj)
18.04.2022
- Fix issue 1022: Allow even more zoom out in piano roll. (StaffanMelin)
- Further to 17.04.2022: Added audio automation horizontal snap-to-grid. (Tim)
17.04.2022
* NEW Complete audio automation graphs redesign: (Tim)
- Multiple graph points can now be selected. Lasso works.
- Standard keys behaviour, same as found in parts, notes etc.
- Copy/cut/paste/del supported.
- Audio automation graphs can now be copied to other controller graphs.
See 'Paste' each controller's color popup menu.
- Points can be dragged past other points now.
- Three paste/drop existing points erase modes (see right-click menu):
Erase none, Erase (groups), Erase complete range.
- After dropping moved points, a 'move mode' coloured block is active until
blank space is clicked, which allows the points to be moved further,
exposing existing points that were erased when dropped upon.
- More colors and custom colors for audio automation graphs.
- Controller names have been removed from the controller graphs and
placed into the Track List 'Automation' column (expand to see more!).
- All plugin controllers now have different colors instead of all green.
Old green color scheme in old songs is detected by checking if two or more
plugin controllers are green and changing them.
* Other:
- Eliminated OLD UGLY HACK: The global cloneList in songfile.cpp.
Replaced with an informational structure passed among the functions.
08.04.2022
*** MusE 4.1 ***
04.04.2022
- Fix issue 1037: Time stretching/shrinking for midi/drum parts. (Staffan)
Solved by writing a Python MIDI script, SpeedChange. Fixed small bug i scripts.cpp.
25.01.2022
- Fix issue 1063: Wrong midiport.h file searched. (Tim)
Jack's midiport.h was being searched instead of our own.
Poster's jack.pc file was different than most, putting the full path to jack.
In our top cmake file, moved the include_directories statement that includes
our own directories, closer to the top of the cmake file, to take priority.
Poster reports this worked.
22.01.2022
- Instrument definition file Edirol-SD90.idf submitted by Stéphane Gagnon (rj)
19.12.2021
- Fixed build issue on Ubuntu 21.10 (g++ 11.2) in vamgui.cpp (rj)

- Metronome: Added possibilty to load metronome samples from local path
.config/MusE/MusE/metronome, this allows for changing metronome sounds while using
the AppImage (rj)
23.10.2021
- LV2: Support loadDefaultState feature. Tested OK with Exampler plugin for example. (Tim)
- LV2: Add initial support for requestValue feature. Unfinished - handled but ignored.
(Stops crash with Exampler plugin 'request' button.)
09.10.2021

- Fix: Don't show (and loop over) up to 200 unused ports in midi sync dialog. (kybos)
- Fix: MMC fastforward/rewind functionality (issue #652) (rj)
- More to 16.05: Fix midi metronome w/ latency correction. And rewrite 'stuck notes' code. (Tim)
Class MidiPlayEvent now has a latency member. The 'stuck notes' code uses it for inclusion
when converting from stuck-note-off ticks to frames. Midi metronome timing was incorrect.
18.05.2021
- Synth selection dialog improvements: Current item is always preselected;
Info about multi-channel effects added; Better handling of Favorites (kybos)
- New submenus for Favorites and Recently used synths (kybos)
- Removed nested synth submenus (kybos)
16.05.2021
- Fix issue 779: Missing notes if too close together. Broken 29.06.2019. (Tim)
14.05.2021

- Improved support for midi remote control, can now toggle REC enable for instance. (rj)
01.05.2021
- Update tool/lib versions to Ubuntu 18.04 LTS level. (kybos)
- Update c++ version to c++17. (kybos)

24.04.2021
*** MusE 4.0 ***
- Fix: Drum list: Disable grouping options when no different tracks are involved. (kybos)
23.04.2021
- Part colours: Fixed 'live' recording virtual part overlay, and eventual created part. (Tim)
Both now obey the chosen current part colour on the Arranger toolbar.
Drawing of 'live' notes also fixed to obey dark/light inversion.
20.04.2021
- Fix neglect at 11.04.2021: No 'live' midi recording events drawn inside parts. (Tim)
17.04.2021
- Fix: Memory leak with Timeline toolbar. (kybos)
- Fix neglect at 11.04.2021: No editor events shown if any hidden events at left. (Tim)
16.04.2021
- Save recent list as soon as a new file has been opened, this to eliminate the possibility
that the update was lost incase MusE was not properly terminated (rj)
15.04.2021
- Looping: Fixed silent wave tracks when Jack transport off or non-Jack driver used. (Tim)
Each AudioDevice class gets a new transportRelocateOrPlayDelay() method. For Jack it is
2 * segment size and for other drivers such as as RT (Pulse) or dummy driver it is zero.
The looping code now uses this value to look ahead, it was a fixed value before.
TODO: This still does not fix looping the Jack audio driver with MusE latency correction
enabled, causing mis-aligned or silent playback. That bug fix is still WIP...
11.04.2021
* Reinstated part left border resizing: Further to 04.04.2021. (Tim)
Extensive re-writes and alterations of much code to support it.
Extensively tested with wave and midi parts.
Perhaps most important, class EL (EventList) is now sorted by signed integer.
ANY BUGS SHOULD only occur when there are left border hidden events, otherwise
it SHOULD behave normally.
Should be OK to use but still some areas need attention such as 'functions',
merging and splitting, and more.
- Wave Editor: Reinstated 'Next part' and 'Previous part'.
10.04.2021
- Fix: Drum list: Drag mode activated after field editing. (kybos)
- Fix: Drum list: Crash in tooltip display with some show/hide options. (kybos)
- Fix: Drum list: Crashes in Show used/named instruments display options. (kybos)
09.04.2021
- Fix: Drum list: Drag mode activated after every context menu call. (kybos)
07.04.2021
- Fix: Crash when MESS synth can't be instantiated. Now the (existing)
warning popup is displayed instead (as originally intended). (kybos)
06.04.2021
- Add: Many new vector icons as replacement for old pixel-based ones. (kybos)
- Fix: Improve visibility of custom drop-down triangles on dark background. (kybos)
05.04.2021
- Fix: Record button: Inconsistencies between button state and
internal record flag state in many situations. (kybos)
- Fix: Inconsistent state of (pseudo-)record-arm icon and mixer strip button in Audio
output tracks after loading of some files. (kybos)
- Fix #717: Record button mustn't be activated when no track is record-armed
(a warning message is displayed now).
Record button is automatically deactivated when no track is armed. (kybos)
- Fix: Don't allow deselecting all tracks, as this hides the mixer
strip which then can't receive events and gets out-of-sync. (kybos)
- Fix: Add own icon for Audio output Downmix trigger to avoid confusion
with the arm-record indicators. (kybos)
- Add: New vector icons. (kybos)
04.04.2021
- Part resizing and other fixes. (Tim)
Rewrite of part resizing routines, esp to the left.
No longer possible to have hidden events before left border,
would require integer negative event times. Too much work ATM.
When resizing, use Ctrl key to choose whether to 'drag' all
events along with the border.
- Midi controller cache: Fixed problems when parts or tracks muted,
or tracks off. Cache was not updated properly.
- Undo/Redo: Fixed a problem where the Redo list was cleared
and the Redo button was disabled even when only non-undoable
operations were executed, such as simply when stopping the
transport (which executes non-undoable EnableAllAudioControllers).
- Arranger and Wave Editor: Embellished wave drawing with dotted
event boundary lines and coloured wave boundary lines.
(Due to a Qt drawing bug, I had to break up long patterned lines!)
03.04.2021
- Fix: Appimage start time: Avoid updating plugin cache on every start. (kybos)
31.03.2021

12.03.2021
- New: Settings to set gradient strength for track list and parts. (kybos)
02.03.2021

- Changed automation add events to place them on the automation
line instead of where the mouse is placed, which often is
slightly offset (rj)
- Added the ability to cache midi event length when adding events

- For issue 920: More values (480-based) in global settings midi division list. (Tim)
20.12.2020
- Fix: Most plugin native UI windows now should behave sensibly out of the box
on HiDPI (of course plugins with no HiDPI/scaling support still look tiny,
but there should be no oversized or broken Qt windows around them).
Global setting for the HiDPI fix is now on by default, but is only active when
at least one Hi-Res screen is found. The container window should now also
adjust to specific screen in multi monitor setups. (kybos)

- New: Customizable colours for all markers. (kybos)
10.10.2020

08.09.2020
- Settings > Midi Division fixes: Full re-work of grid raster and snap system (Tim):
- Replaced INCORRECT hard-coded snap/raster fixed-value tables throughout,
with new class MusEGui::Rasterizer, provides CORRECT dynamic raster tables
that change values, and dimensions, when global Midi Divison changes.
There is one single global instance of this new class.
- New class MusEGui::RasterizerModel works with class Rasterizer to provide a
Qt model for use with combo boxes for example. Specific columns and maximum
number of rows can be specified. Model is specially designed for rasters
(for ex. in pianoroll the first row is three columns wide and says 'off').
- New class RasterLabelCombo replaces hard-coded raster snap combo boxes.
Works with class RasterizerModel. With a high Midi Division more rows appear,
meaning HIGH-RESOLUTION editing is possible, rivaling that of frames.
New classes RasterizerListView, RasterizerTableView, and RasterizerTreeView
provide three types of views for RasterLabelCombo.
- Wave Editor: Added a 'Snap' combo box (RasterLabelCombo).
- Grid lines: Fixed problems with unwanted red grid line colours.
- Removed never-used GUI Division from Settings.
- Canvases: Area before bar # 1 now FIXED WIDTH regardless of Midi Division
or magnification, by rearranging xorg/yorg origin stuff in class View,
ie. origin is no longer magnified.
04.09.2020
- New streamlined GUI:
Tabbed MDI as default, with the option to detach/float the graphical editor
windows, per preset or dynamically (mainly for use with multi-monitor setups).
List based editors (markers, clips, master list, midi events) changed to docks.
Arranger as the central point is fixed to the main window,
not longer detachable/closeable. (kybos)
- Reused snap/quantize shortcuts in midieditors (1-6) as snap shortcuts in arranger
as I discovered it was missing, and it's pretty much the same thing. Also
added a shortcut for setting quantize to off (8). Execution slightly
annoying as changing the quantize in the midi editors after having it
at off will always give triplets (which can be turned of by pressing T).
Fixing that would require a more extensive rewrite. (rj)
03.09.2020
- Fixed crash in #842 extending parts to the left often caused a crash (rj)
14.08.2020

- Moved rewind on stop shortcut from arranger to global, fixes issue #839 (rj)
29.07.2020
- Midi export: Format 1: First track must have only timing/marker events etc, no notes. (Tim)
- Midi import: Don't create a first track if no events left once stripped of recognized/absorbed
events. In format 1, first file track is supposed to be reserved for timing/markers.
- Midi import/export: New! Key signatures supported - supports 'minor' keys as well.
- Score editor: New! Key signature names shown at top of staff. Minor keys supported.
25.07.2020
- Midi import: Fixed importation of SMPTE/MTC division midi files. (Tim)
Converts linear time to ticks. Ignores existing MusE tempo map so that
it plays at original speed - this allows the tempo map to be set up beforehand
without actually affecting the song.
16.07.2020
*** MusE 3.1.1 ***
27.06.2020

20.06.2020
- Cmake option changes (Tim): Removed ancient ENABLE_VST and ENABLE_EXPERIMENTAL,

18.06.2020
- Mixer + strips: Replace hard-coded shortcuts with configurable ones. Several weren't working. (Tim)
New mixer shortcut category.
- Updated Simpledrums so all parameters update a status field, previously
it was impossible to know what the dials were set to. Changing the look
of the dials would also be a good idea, left to do. (rj)
17.06.2020
- Fix main window being too small on large screens when MusE is started for the first time.
The size and position are now adjusted dynamically for the current screen size. (kybos)
