- Update to 0.8.5
* Audio clip gain and panning properties are now taken into
consideration when hash-linking (aka. ref-counting) their
backend buffers.
* New out-of-process plug-in inventory scan and cache option,
replacing the old (aka. dummy) VST plug-in scan option and
extending its function to all other plug-in types: LADSPA,
DSSI and also LV2 (cache only).

dockable-widget on the main application window (cf. main menu
View / Window / File System).
* Drag-and-dropping of session, audio and MIDI files over the
main track-list (left pane) is now possible, allowing for yet
another quick means to open a new session or add new tracks to
the current session.
* MIDI input/capture time-stamping has been fixed as much to
avoid missing inbound events, when play-head is near the loop
end point and the loop-start is set below the absolute first
half-a-second (<0.5sec).
* LV2 Time/Transport speed information is now set on rolling when
in audio export aka freewheeling mode.
* Added *.SF3 to soundfont instrument files filter, on the
View Instruments... > Import... file dialog.

from build/configure template chains.
- Updated target path for freedesktop.org's AppStream metainfo
file (formerly AppData).

individualized on a per audio clip basis.
* Long overdue, some brand new and fundamental icons revamp.
* Fixed a tempo-map node add/update/remove rescaling with
regard to clip-lengths and automation/curve undo/redo.
* Fixed a potential Activate automation/curve index clash,
or aliasing, for any plug-ins that change upstream their
parameter count or index order, on sessions saved with
the old plug-in versions and vice-versa.
* Thu May 11 2017 ecsos@opensuse.org
- Update to 0.8.2

prevent automation/curve files to proliferate across several
session load/save (re)cycles.
- Track-height resizing now meets immediate visual feedback.
- A brand new user preference global option is now available:
View/Options.../Plugins/Editor/Select plug-in's editor (GUI)

__TIME__ anymore.
- Upstream changes:
- The View/Options.../Display/Dialogs/Use native dialogs
option is now set initially off by default.
- All tempo and time-signature labels are now displayed
with one decimal digit, as it was in mostly everywhere
else but the time ruler/scale headers.
- JACK transport tempo and time-signature changes are now
accepted, even though playback is not currently rolling;
also, changing (JACK) Timebase master setting (cf.View/
Options.../General/Transport/Timebase) will take effect
immediately, not needing nor warning for session restart
anymore.
- Track/Navigate/Next and Previous menu commands, finally
fixed to wrap around the current track list.
- Current session (JACK) transport mode option switching is
now being made accessible, from the main menu and drop-down
toolbar buttons, as well as user configurable PC-keyboard
and/or MIDI controller shortcuts (cf. Transport/Mode/None,
Slave, Master, Full).
- Fixed some auto-backward play-head position flip-flopping,
when opening a new session while the previous was still on
rolling/playing state, hopefully.
- Added French man page (by Olivier Humbert, thanks).
- MIDI clip changes are now saved unconditionally whenever
the editor (piano-roll) is closed or not currently visible.
- Audio clip peak/waveform files re-generation performance,
scalability and resilience have been slightly improved.
- Some sanitary checks have been added to audio clip peak/
waveform re-generation routine, as much to avoid empty,
blank, zero or negative-width faulty renderings.
- Do not reset the Files tree-view widgets anymore, when
leaving any drag-and-drop operation (annoyingly, all
groups and sub-groups were being closed without appeal).
- Make builds reproducible byte for byte, by getting rid of
the configure build date and time stamps.
- For more changes since 0.7.8 see:
/usr/share/doc/packages/qtractor/ChangeLog

- refresh qtractor-nodatetime.patch
- Upstream changes:
* MIDI file track names (and any other SMF META events) are now
converted to and from the base ASCII/Latin-1 encoding, as much to
prevent invalid SMF whenever non-Latin-1 UTF-8 encoded MIDI track
names are given.
* MIDI file tempo-map and location markers import/export is now
hopefully corrected, after almost a decade in mistake, regarding
MIDI resolution conversion, when different than current
session's setting (TPQN, ticks-per-quarter-note aka.
ticks-per-beat, etc.)
* Introducing LV2 UI Show interface support for other types than
Qt, Gtk, X11 and lv2_external_ui.
* Prevent any visual updates while exporting (freewheeling) audio
tracks that have at least one plugin activate state automation
enabled for playback (as much for not showing messages like
"QObject::connect: Cannot queue arguments of type 'QVector'"
... anymore).
* The common buses management dialog (View/Buses...) sees the
superfluous Refresh button finally removed, while two new button
commands take its place: (move) Up and Down.
* LV2 plug-in Patch support has been added and LV2 plug-ins
parameter properties manipulation is now accessible on the
generic plug-in properties dialog.
* Fixed a recently introduced bug, that rendered all but one
plug-in instance to silence, affecting only DSSI plug-ins which
implement DSSI_Descriptor::run_multiple_synths() eg.
fluidsynth-dssi, hexter, etc.

- update to 0.7.7
- LV2 UI Touch feature/interface support added.
- MIDI aware plug-ins are now void from multiple or parallel
instantiation.

dialog (yet another suggestion by Frank Neumann, thanks).
- Dropped the --enable-qt5 from configure as found redundant
given that's the build default anyway
- Immediate visual sync has been added to main and MIDI clip
editor thumb-views
- Fixed an old MIDI clip editor contents disappearing bug,
which manifested when drawing free-hand
(ie. Edit/Select Mode/Edit Draw is on) over and behind its
start/beginning position (while in the lower view pane).
* Wed Apr 06 2016 ecsos@opensuse.org

where it's inserted.
- Fixed relative/absolute path mapping when saving/loading
custom LV2 Plug-in State Presets.
* Tue Mar 22 2016 ecsos@opensuse.org
- update to 0.7.5
- Beat unit divisor, aka. the denominator or lower numeral in the
time-signature, have now a visible and practical effect over
the time-line, even though the standard MIDI tempo(BPM) is
always denoted in beats as quarter-notes (1/4, crotchet,
seminima) per minute.
- Fixed an old hack on LV2 State Files abstract/relative
file-path mapping when saving custom LV2 Presets (after a
related issue on Fabla2, by Harry Van Haaren, thanks).

assigned (cf. Help/Shortcuts...).
- New option on the audio/MIDI export dialog, on whether to
add/import the exported result as brand new track(s).
- Introducing brand new track icons property.
- Old Dry/Wet Insert and Aux-send pseudo-plugin parameters are
now split into separate Dry and Wet controls, what else could
it possibly be? :)
- Brand new MIDI Insert and Aux-Send pseudo-plugins are now
implemented with very similar semantics as the respective and
existing audio counterparts.
- Implement LV2_STATE__loadDefaultState feature (after pull
request by Hanspeter Portner aka. ventosus, thanks).
- Plug-ins search paths internal logic has been refactored; an
alternative file-name based search is now in effect for LADSPA,
DSSI and VST plug-ins, whenever not found on their original
file-path locations saved in a previous session.
- Finally added this brand new menu Clip/Cross Fade command,
aimed on setting fade-in/out ranges properly, just as far to
(auto)cross-fade consecutive overlapping clips.

"catch-up" default behavior (cf. View/Controllers.../Sync).
- Fixed some track control issues related to MIDI Controllers
generic mapping (cf. View/Controllers...).
- Try making Help/Shortcuts... dialog window modeless, as far as
under MIDI Controller, Inputs/Outputs Connections window also
gets accessible enough.
- Fixed some vertical scrolling and play-head line re-drawing
glitches introduced by the recent unlimited slack to editing
beyond current contents length on main tracks view.

applied to automation curve node value editing.
- Unlimited slack is now in effect on editing over and beyond
the current session or clip contents length, on both the main
tracks and MIDI clip editor (piano-roll) views.
- Ctrl+click and dragging the left or right edges of a clip will
now make it spill over and replicate as many clip clones as it
fits in the left or right horizontal extent.
- Added View/Note Type and Value Type command menus to the MIDI
clip editor (aka. piano-roll) which opens the possibility for
discrete shortcuts to switching views eg. Note Velocity and
Controller views (after a kind request by yubatake, thanks).
- Fixed the conversion and/or override of MIDI clip offsets when
moving and copy/pasting across tempo/time-signature changes.
- Fixed MIDI file track/channel duration estimator, which was
giving quite wrong and way too short reads.
- Fixed a drag-and-drop bug over the main tracks view, when new
tracks were being inserted at the top and not to the bottom as
is normally indicated by the floating visual placeholder.
- Fixed LV2UI_Resize handle from extension_data(LV2_UI__resize),
now passing LV2UI_Handle in first argument to ui_resize(), as
found correct and needed for resizable/scaleable LV2 UI's, most
specially to ssj71's so called Infamous Plugins, thanks.

* As long to prevent asynchronous mistakes to JACK transport
state changes, an internal slack-delay is now introduced

* Existing plugin presets may now be selected right(-click)
from plugin list context-menu (ticket by Harry van Haaren,
thanks).
* So-called "painting" over multiple selected event values,
while on the MIDI clip editor view pane below the main

is now split into two similar painting modes, whether the
sub-menu Edit/Select Mode/Edit Draw is set on (free-hand)
or off (linear).
* Drag-and-copy of plug-in instances across tracks or buses
(ie. cloning) now also copies the direct access parameter
setting (ticket by Holger Marzen, thanks).

automation curves were being left behind, maybe leading to
unpredictable mistaken behavior. Hopefully, not anymore.
* Translations install directory change.

map node changes (after a ticket by Holger Marzen, thanks).
* Audio/MIDI files or plugins found missing on session load
are now subject for an explicit modal warning message and
prompt for an immediate session backup salvage.

command operation, especially for DSSI but also for plugins
that come with the LV2 Programs interface extension support
(http://kxstudio.sourceforge.net/ns/lv2ext/programs).
* Drawing, selecting and/or resizing of MIDI note events that
extend across tempo/time-signature changes is now made a bit
more correctly over the MIDI clip editor (aka. piano-roll),
especially regarding to current snap-to-beat setting (after
an outstanding ticket by yubatake, thanks).
* Once again, audio frame/MIDI time drift correction has been
slightly refactored to improve MIDI input monitor and timing.
* Discrete automation curve node values may now be edited via
a numerical entry floating spin-box on double-click (as yet
another request by AutoStatic aka. Jeremy Jongepier, thanks).

on a plugin list entry now briefly reverses the current View
/Options.../Plugins/Editor/Open plugin's editor (GUI) by
default option preference.
* Fixed an old crash lurker when switching output buses that
implied a change on the number of audio channels, while on
tracks that have (auto-)monitor turned on and at least one
active plugin in chain (yet another ticket by AutoStatic
aka. Jeremy Jongepier, thanks).
* MIDI Controller assignment (aka MIDI learn) and/or automation
of plugins (de)activation state has been added (as requested
by AutoStatic aka. Jeremy Jongepier, thanks).

/Transport/Hold auto-scrolling (follow play-head) on edits
(after requests by Holger Marzen and Louigi Verona, thanks).

asked (after a ticket by Oliver Kester, thanks).
* Portuguese (pt) translation added (by Esteban Viveros, thanks).
- changes from 0.6.0
* New user option added: on whether to save plugins automation
values with higher resolution as possible, using 14-bit NRPN:
cf. View/Options.../Plugins/Experimental/High resolution
plugin automation (default=off).
* Generic native plugin dialogs now shows an additional "About"
last page where authorship credits are due.
* A new user preference option is now in place for whether to
use desktop environment's own native file requester/browser
dialogs (View/Options.../Display/Dialogs/Use native dialogs).
* A bit of slack have been introduced to put "Follow Playhead"
(aka. auto-scroll view mode) on hold, while doing in-flight
selection edit moves.
* Fixed some user interface related annoyances while on the MIDI
Controllers mappings (ie. View/Controllers...).
* Fixed port origin on MIDI RPN/NRPN 14-bit controllers input.
* A discretionary plug-in unique identifier have been devised for
when more than one from the same type are inserted on a bus or
track chain, avoiding destructive clashing of automation data.
* Horizontal scrolling shift+mouse-wheel direction now reversed.
* LV2 Dyn(amic)-manifest support is now optional (default=off);
cf. View/Options.../Plugins/Experimental/LV2 Dynamic Manifest
support).
* The following options, although decieved on View/Options... as
global configuration options, were always and still are proper
session instance properties: (JACK) Transport mode, MMC mode,
MMC device, MIDI SPP and MIDI Clock modes, are now shown there
reflecting the current open session state.
* A couple of run-time circumventions have been hacked in, both
strictly related to when NSM session management is in charge:
1) the new session template feature is disabled (was aborting
initial NSM new client additions); 2) the native (as from the
desktop environment eg. KDE) file browser/requester dialogs are
disabled (were taking too long to list the current directory on
first time invocation).
* Update current automation/curve nodes selection while changing
horizontal (time axis) zoom levels.
* One liner's attempt to make it consistent behaviour on resizing
and moving multiple selected notes or events while on the MIDI
clip editor (aka. piano-roll; after a ticket request from Daniel
MacDonald aka. danboid, thanks).
* Introducing tiny quarter-note/crotchet/seminima/beat icon on all
snap-to-beat selection items get a new icon :).
* Corrected some audio buffering boundary conditions that were
