============================
CSOUND VERSION 6.05
RELEASE NOTES VERSION 6.05
============================
As ever there are new facilities and numerous bug-fixes. A major part of
this release is the removal of a number of memory leaks and over use
of memory. Naturally these changes are all but invisible, just a
smaller memory foot-print.
Note that we track bugs and requests for enhancements via the github
issues system,, and these had a significant affect on this release.
The Developers
USER-LEVEL CHANGES
==================
New opcodes:
o **None**
o Thre opcode sndload is now deprecated
New Gen and Macros:
o Paul Octavian Nasca's padsynth algorithm implemented as a gen.
Orchestra:
Score:
o Fixed string location calculation bug when processing score
lines [fixes #443]
Options:
o A short-format copyright option is available, with a fixed
number of well-known licences (CC, etc)
o New command-line option to report MIDI devices in simple
format
o New command-line option to set ksmps
Modified Opcodes and Gens:
o adsynt handles amplitude changes better
o sfont has better checking for corruptions
o better checking in physical models for out-of-range frequencies
o ftgenonce and others allows string parameters
o gausstrig reworked and extended with new features
0 use of p() function no longer complains overrides the pcnt warning
o fix to midirecv
o OSCsend cleans up after use improved
o fillarray is limited to 1 or 2 dimensional arrays; in fact it
failed silently previously for 3D and higher.
o oscbnk now works when the equaliser is used.
o mp3in now works with both mono and stereo input files
o flooper & flooper2 now allow stereo tables
o Release phase of expsegr fixed
o f-tables created by a large number of arguments could overwrite
memory, now fixed
o performance of plltrack improved
o init of arrays clarified and checked
o gen23 corrected to stop an infinite loop
o alwayson now starts from score offset; this is part of a fix to
the long-standing problem with alwayson in CsoundVST
o invalue now checks for output string size and reallocates
memory if smaller than default string size (set at 256 bytes
for backwards compatibility)
Utilities:
o The srconv utilityy has been improved but it does not work well,
with groups of noise in otherwise good output. We recomment
the use of Erik de Castro Lopo's Secret Rabbit Code (aka
libsamplerate) as providing sanmplrate conversion at high
quailty. srconv wuill be removed shortly possibly to be
replaced by an SESRC-based utility.
Frontends:
pnacl: added interface to allow the use of Csound's MIDI input system.
fixed audio input to conform to the latest Pepper API spec.
icsound:
csound~:
Emscripten:
csdebugger:
General usage:
Bugs fixed:
o bugs in fastabi, oscktp, phasorbnk, adsr, xadsr, hrtfer fixed
o bugs in the harmon. harmon2, harmon3 and harmon4 fixed
o Csound could crash after a parsing error, a case now removed
====================
SYSTEM LEVEL CHANGES
====================
System changes:
o There are now checks that xin/xout types match those defined
as part of UDO definition.
o jack now has a timeout
Internal changes:
* Many defects indicated by coverity fixed or code changed.
Should make csound more robust in edge cases.
* Parser-related changes simplifies allocation of temporary
variables, with some new optimisations.
* code for multi-thread rendering improved and stablised
vis-a-vis redefinition of instruments.
API
===
*
Platform Specific
=================
iOS
---
* fixed audio callback to work correctly with lightning output and
Apple TV.
Android
-------
* New experimental audio IO mode: csoundPerformKsmps() is called
from the OpenSL ES output callback. This mode can be optionally
enabled by passing a value of "false" to a new second parameter to
the CsoundObj constructor (bool isAsync). The default constructor
and the one-parameter sets this to "true" (keeping backwards
compatibility with existing code).
* The OSC and exciter opcodes are included in distribution.
* There are new file open and save dialogs that permit the user to
access the SD card on the device, if there is one, in addition to
internal storage.
* There is a new "Save as..." button that permits the user to save
the csd as a new file with a new name.
* Many of the examples in the archive of Android examples are now
built into the app and can be run from the app's menu.
Windows
-------
OSX
---
Installation now places csladspa.so rather than csladspa.dylib
on disk.
Linux
-----
Linux is now build without FLTK threads, This removes system
hangs and is in line with other builds
