|
|
|
|
User-visible changes between 2.7.1 and 2.7.2 include:
|
|
|
|
User-visible changes between 2.6 and 2.7.1 include:
|
|
|
|
- fix a warning regarding the redefinition of NNOTES
|
|
|
|
- raise NNOTES from 127 to 128 (only notes 0..125 were being shown
|
|
because 127 was < NNOTES and 126 is black)
|
|
|
|
- only show the keys that exist on a real piano by default, and add a
|
|
"-f" ('full midi keyboard') command line option to show all midi
|
|
notes.
|
|
|
|
- make the dimensions slightly closer to a real piano by:
|
|
> making the black key hight two third of the white key height
|
|
> making the black key positions vary based on their position in
|
|
the octave
|
|
|
|
- adding a QWERTY_REV layout that has the lower keys on the upper row
|
|
of the keyboard
|
|
|
|
- adding QWERTY_UK and QWERTY_UK_REV layouts that extend the QWERTY
|
|
and QWERTY_REV layouts with the punctuation keys available on those
|
|
rows
|
|
|
|
User-visible changes between 2.5 and 2.6 include:
|
|
|
|
- Bugfix: A key volume of zero means key off.
|
|
- Bugfix: Make pianola/OMNI mode the default.
|
|
- Feature: Don't start jackd when starting jack-keyboard.
|
|
|
|
User-visible changes between 2.4 and 2.5 include:
|
|
|
|
- Autotools. This should make life easier for distributors. ;-)
|
|
|
|
User-visible changes between 2.3 and 2.4 include:
|
|
|
|
- Keyboard layout switching. Now you can specify "-l QWERTZ"
|
|
or "-l AZERTY" and keyboard layout will be (hopefully) usable.
|
|
|
|
- Implement output rate limiting; specifying "-r 31.25" in a command
|
|
line will limit jack-keyboard to the rate mandated by the MIDI
|
|
specification.
|
|
|
|
- Remove the "-n" option; not connecting to the MIDI port at startup
|
|
is the default behaviour.
|
|
|
|
- Start jackd automatically, even when not compiled against LASH.
|
|
|
|
- Fix "make install" on systems without /usr/local/share/icons/hicolor.
|
|
|
|
User-visible changes between 2.2 and 2.3 include:
|
|
|
|
- Fix "make install" on systems without /usr/local/bin.
|
|
|
|
- Fix crash with jackdmp, reported and tested by Juuso Alasuutari.
|
|
|
|
- Make it possible to switch between windows using Alt-Tab
|
|
when the keyboard is grabbed.
|
|
|
|
User-visible changes between 2.1 and 2.2 include:
|
|
|
|
- Add 4 to "Octave". What that means is, C4 is in octave #4,
|
|
not #0.
|
|
|
|
- Icon ;-)
|
|
|
|
- Documentation updates.
|
|
|
|
User-visible changes between 2.0 and 2.1 include:
|
|
|
|
- It's possible to change "high" and "low" velocity. To change
|
|
the former, press and hold Shift key and move slider. To change
|
|
the latter, do the same with Ctrl key.
|
|
|
|
Moving the slider without Ctrl or Shift held changes "normal"
|
|
velocity.
|
|
|
|
- Fix ugly memory corruption that could cause strange behaviour
|
|
(including crashes) in pianola mode.
|
|
|
|
User-visible changes between 1.8 and 2.0 include:
|
|
|
|
- GUI; now jack-keyboard should be more intuitive. It can be turned
|
|
off using -G option.
|
|
|
|
- Support keyboard grabbing - with the -K option, jack-keyboard
|
|
will get all the keyboard input, even when it does not have focus.
|
|
In other words, you can play while mousing in different program
|
|
(synth, for example) at the same time.
|
|
|
|
Note that this will not work if another application grabs
|
|
the keyboard.
|
|
|
|
- LASH support.
|
|
|
|
- Install ".desktop" file.
|
|
|
|
Changes between 1.7 and 1.8:
|
|
|
|
- Fix compilation with SVN version of JACK.
|
|
|
|
Changes between 1.6 and 1.7:
|
|
|
|
- Add "keyboard cue" to show you which part of virtual keyboard your
|
|
PC keyboard keys are currently mapped to. It looks a little ugly,
|
|
so it's disabled by default; you can enable it using "-C" option.
|
|
|
|
- Add an "-u" option to automatically send bank/program change messages
|
|
after reconnecting
|
|
|
|
- Warn when bank/program shown in title bar could be different than the
|
|
one used by the synth
|
|
|
|
- Fix setting bank/program from the command line
|
|
|
|
Changes between 1.5 and 1.6:
|
|
|
|
- Send messages with proper time offsets. If you don't like this,
|
|
you can make jack-keyboard behave same as before by using -t option
|
|
|
|
- Implement MIDI channel switching (submitted by Nedko Arnaudov)
|
|
|
|
- Make it possible to enter bank/program number directly using keypad
|
|
|
|
- Make bank switching actually work
|
|
|
|
- Don't crash when clicking _and_ releasing mouse button on the gray area
|
|
|
|
Changes between 1.4 and 1.5:
|
|
|
|
- Add "pianola mode" - jack-keyboard now has a MIDI input port; events received
|
|
on this port will change the visible state of keyboard - basically, you will
|
|
see the notes played. Note that, by default, jack-keyboard will refuse to
|
|
connect to other clients named 'jack-keyboard'; this is to prevent loops.
|
|
|
|
- Make panic key more reliable
|
|
|
|
- Numeric keys (top row on the alphanumeric keyboard) pressed with Shift held
|
|
should work correctly now
|
|
|
|
- Threading fixes - if jack-keyboard behaved in unpredictable way, it should
|
|
be fixed now
|
|
|
|
- Add manual page
|
|
|
|
- Add 'install' Makefile target ;-)
|
|
|
|
Changes between 1.3 and 1.4:
|
|
|
|
- Don't stop the notes when moving mouse outside of the window (suggested by ctaf @ #lad)
|
|
|
|
- Show some useful information in the window title
|
|
|
|
- Rewrite MIDI input switching to make it more robust
|
|
|
|
- Remove the command line MIDI port selection. Just use Insert/Delete keys to cycle to the
|
|
port you need
|
|
|
|
- Don't refuse to start when there are no MIDI input ports to connect to (suggested by Nedko Arnaudov)
|
|
|
|
Changes between 1.2 and 1.3:
|
|
|
|
- Use the ringbuffer instead of old 'table of notes'. Now the notes won't
|
|
get lost even under high CPU load
|
|
|
|
- Add 'panic key', under 'Esc' key, that stops all sounds
|
|
|
|
- Add Bank Change (Home/End)
|
|
|
|
Changes between 1.1 and 1.2:
|
|
|
|
- Make it possible to run several instances of jack-keyboard at the same time
|
|
|
|
- Add the ability to switch MIDI inputs at runtime (Insert/Delete keys)
|
|
|
|
- Warn about JACK timing problems
|
|
|
|
- Minor display optimization
|
|
|
|
- Fix crash after pressing highest (#127) note
|
|
|
|
Changes between 1.0 and 1.1:
|
|
|
|
- Speed up redrawing
|
|
|
|
- Add MIDI port selection ("jack-keyboard 3" will connect to fourth available
|
|
JACK MIDI input port)
|
|
|
|
- Fix sustain key (space)
|
|
