XXXX-XX-XX the hydrogen team <[email protected]>
* Release 1.3.0
* PortMidi driver does open a input/output port which can be
discovered and connected to by other applications when port was
set to "None" in the Preferences (not supported on Windows).
* Added
- All keyboard shortcuts including the virtual keyboard can now be
customized in Preferences > Shortcuts.
- Most actions available via MIDI or OSC can also be assigned to a
keyboard shortcut. If those actions require input arguments,
they are retrieved using popup dialogs.
* Changed
- Preferences dialog can now be smoothly resized.
- MIDI action `>>_NEXT_BAR` and `<<_PREVIOUS_BAR` - as well as
their OSC counterparts - do now wrap transport around the
beginning and end of a song if loop mode is enabled. In pattern
mode they move transport to be beginning and next is updating
pending stacked patterns.
* Fixed
- Instrument/strip-specific actions, like MIDI action
`STRIP_MUTE_TOGGLE`, did void the instrument selection of the
Instrument Editor if the specified instrument was not the
currently selected one.
- Do not start playback at cursor when cursor in Song Editor is
beyond the current song length.
2023-06-08 the hydrogen team <[email protected]>
* Release 1.2.1
* Update French translation
* Bugfixes
- Fix reopening of last used Playlist. In addition, in case the
PlaylistDialog was opened at the end of the last session - when
"Reopen last used playlist" is checked in the Preferences - the
dialog will be reopened too at the same position.
- Fix spurious marking of opened songs as modified.
- Fix MIDI (output) feedback for metronome toggling and pan
setting.
- Fix superfluous MIDI event - Action bindings. An incoming MIDI
event can be mapped to an Action only once.
- Fix tool tips of MIDI-learnable widgets. All bounded MIDI events
will be shown.
- Fix MIDI note output for channel 16 (previously only channel
1-15 were accessible in the InstrumentEditor).
- Fix spurious tempo changes to 120bpm when switching songs or
between pattern and song mode (#1779 and #1785)
- Support "START", "CONTINUE", and "STOP" type System Realtime
MIDI messages in PortMidi and CoreMidi.
- Fix MIDI action binding to incoming MMC_DEFERRED_PLAY event.
- Fix missing MIDI driver restart when adjusting corresponding
parameters in Preferences.
- Fix MIDI Machine Control (MMC) event type handling on Windows
(#1773)
- Fix loading of legacy drumkits. All layers but the first one
were dropped during drumkit upgrade (#1759)
- Fix MIDI input handling with "Discard MIDI messages after action
has been triggered" checked. Incoming NOTEON message were
dropped without triggering a sound (#1751)
- Fix beat and bar calculation in pattern mode (#1741)
- Fix compilation in GCC with -Werror=format-security (#1739)
- Explicit usage of Python3 in stats.py script

2023-04-07 the hydrogen team <[email protected]>
* Release 1.2
* General behavior
- Remembering paths in all export/import/save/open dialogs.
- Introducing keyboard shortcut for the Open Pattern dialog.
- Allow for opening more than one Pattern at once.
- All available audio drivers can now be chosen via CLI.
- Implement missing EFFECT_LEVEL_RELATIVE MIDI action
- If the Timeline is activated, the tempo set using the BPM
widget, BeatCounter, Tap Tempo, or MIDI/OSC commands is used left
of the first tempo marker.
- The tempo provided by an external JACK timebase master
overwrites all internal tempo settings.
- The BPM widget switches to read-only mode and displays the
current playback speed when the Timeline is activated.
- Activation of the Timeline is now stored in each individual
.h2song file.
- Autosave files will be hidden. The interval they are stored with
as well whether there is an autosave at all can be set via the
Preferences. Hydrogen will inform the user whether there are
unsaved changes to recover taken from the autosave file.
- Hydrogen is now able to recover changes applied to a new and
empty song in case they are discarded or the session end
untimely (using autosave files)
- Multiple actions can be assigned to a single MIDI event.
- The virtual keyboard is now decoupled from the "Hear New Notes"
button in the Pattern Editor and can be used to play back notes in
song mode with playback rolling too.
- Mutable warning dialogs are shown when saving/exporting a
drumkit containing samples of mismatching license and when
saving/exporting a drumkit or song containing a copyleft license
or one requiring an attribution.
- Drumkit properties dialog does now feature a table listing all
contained samples and associated licenses.
- All actions accessible via right-clicking in the SoundLibrary do
affect the stack drumkits and not the instrument list of the
current song.
- All actions accessible via the Drumkits tab of the main menu do
affect the loaded drumkit using the current song's custom
instrument and component list.
* Interface
- Improved scalability (most PNG images were replaced by SVGs,
hardcoded PNG labels are now directly drawn by Qt, and spin boxes,
buttons, and combo boxes are now based on native Qt widgets)
- Improved internationalization (all labels are translatable now
and support UTF-8)
- Improved accessibility (widgets were increased to fill available
space, preference option to (de- and) increase font size)
- All colors can be altered via the preferences
- Input widgets (rotary, fader, combo box, spin box, button) do
support both mouse and keyboard input (e.g. setting numerical values)
- Input widgets are faintly highlighted when hovered and more
strongly highlighted when clicked (focuses). Only the focused
widget can receive keyboard input
- MIDI-learnable widgets now show their corresponding MIDI action
and it's binding in the tooltip
- It's now possible to jump to the beginning of the currently
playing pattern by clicking its position on the ruler in the
pattern editor.
- The length of patterns can now be changed while transport is
rolling.
* PreferencesDialog > Appearance tab overhaul
- Drop previous font options in favor for three different
levels of font (without exposing their point sizes)
- Ability to decrease or increase the overall font size
- All settings in the Appearance tab - except the overall layout
and the scaling policy - take effect immediately (no restart
required anymore)
- Drop the "fixed" coloring methods and rename "steps" to
"Custom".
- Via a colored button the particular line color can now be
adjusted using a QColorDialog
- Custom color tab to alter all colors in the GUI (big thanks to
the Muse4 team for the original code).
- All options set in the Appearance tab can be imported and
exported into and shared via dedicated .h2theme files.
- Overhauled MIDI Table
- Per effect or layer setting are now done in dedicated spin
boxes instead of providing individual actions for each.
- Only spin boxes for parameters required for a particular
action are shown.
- Rows can be removed by unsetting both the Event and Action
combo box.
- Clicking the widget showing the status messages does now open a
dropdown menu displaying the last 100 messages.
* Audio processing
- Set CoreAudio (macOS) buffer size to control latency
- New fast exponential ADSR envelope processing
* InstrumentEditor UX improvements:
- rework start/end/loop frame slider selection and motion.
- rework velocity/pan envelope editing
* SongEditor UX improvements:
- Tags can now be inserted at all possible columns
- Hovering a Tag displays its content
- Changed behavior of the Tempo Marker dialog: When clicking an
existing Tempo Marker it can be moved, edited, or
deleted. Clicking a column with no Tempo Marker present allows
to create a new one at an arbitrary location.
- Timeline is deactivated automatically when switching to Pattern
Mode or a JACK timebase master is present
- The tempo used left of the first tempo marker is painted in a
darker color.
- The currently used Tempo Marker gets highlighted.
- Tags have been moved into Timeline (next to the Tempo Markers)
in order to make room to accommodate the cursor in the ruler to
highlight the current position
- Tags can be inserted by left-clicking the bottom area of the
Timeline (above the ruler).
- Clicking the ruler is now always enabled and automatically
switches transport into Song Mode.
- Full-size playhead
- The icons in the pattern list indicating whether a pattern is
playing in stacked pattern mode are now colored and can have four
different states: on, off, off next (pattern is played till the
end and then turned off), and on next (pattern is played as soon
as transport is looped again)
- In song mode the pattern editor can be locked meaning that
always the bottom-most pattern of the current column the
playhead resides in as well as all other playing notes are
shown. Pattern selection is done automatically when moving into
a different column.
* PatternEditor UX tweaks:
- Relocating transport by clicking the ruler is now supported
(like in the SongEditor) and automatically switches transport
into Pattern Mode.
- Full-size playhead
- The ruler was decoupled from the currently selected pattern. It
always has the size of the largest playing pattern and always
shows the transport position using a playhead. Whether or not the
current pattern is played back is indicated by a full-height
cursor.
- All note properties except of the note key can now be altered in
both the drum pattern editor and the piano roll editor by
right-clicking and dragging a note.
- All notes of the currently playing patterns will be hinted in
stacked pattern mode, when selecting a virtual pattern, or in
case the pattern editor is locked in song mode. Even those notes
exceeding the length of the current pattern are shown.
* OSC API
- Add command /Hydrogen/LOAD_DRUMKIT
- Add command /Hydrogen/UPGRADE_DRUMKIT
- Add command /Hydrogen/VALIDATE_DRUMKIT
- Add command /Hydrogen/EXTRACT_DRUMKIT

- Add `--check` option to validate a drumkit
- Add `--extract` option to extract the content of a drumkit
- Drumkit supplied using `-k` option can now be either the name of
an install kit or an absolute path to a kit (does not have to be
located in the Hydrogen's drumkit folder).
* Bugfixes
- fix dithering of SongEditor when viewing the playback track
and resizing the application or for very small size (#1379).
- fix rewinding to beginning of pattern in pattern mode with no
pattern inserted in SongEditor (#932)

transport using the position ruler
- fix playhead glitches when adding toggling patterns at the end
of the song after transport was loop at least once
- deactivating loop mode result stopping transport at the end of
the song even if transport was already looped at least once
- relocation of the playhead use JACK is now also support in case
transport is not rolling
