5.7. (ws)
      - fix midi metronome output routing
29.6. (ws)
      - fix sending proper note off's at stop
27.6. (ws)
      JACK cleanups and implementation of JACK midi input
25.6. (ws)
      As part of a major code cleanup i removed ALSA midi. This also removes the
      need for a realtime timer (JACK midi and MusE are competing for it) and simplifies
      a lot of other code.
2.3. (ws)
      - dssi plugins: fix count of LADSPA ports
21.02. (fn)
      - "Ported" simpledrums to Qt4 - it builds, runs, produces sound (and
		  compiler warnings); review is welcome. The GUI is rather large now.
21.1. (ws)
      - fix: recorded midi events were echoed to midi output even if the "monitor"
        switch was "off"
      - speedups for midi recording; recorded events are shown in "realtime"
18.1. (ws)
      - Remove font & style configuration. Fonts and other things are configured in
        QT style sheets. The application style sheet is configurable. Default is
        the build-in file "style.qss".
17.1.2008 (ws)
      - use QSettings to save/restore main window geometry
      - do not change geometry of main window when changing project
      - fix crash: loading another song, then Settings->Preferences
      - added svn revision number to "About" box
      - changed version number to 2.0.1, install to muse-2.0
      - routing pulldown menu in mixer will stay if SHIFT is pressed while clicking;
        this allows for fast selection of more than one routing targets
30.12. (rj)
      - added drum filter mux plugin. Useful when driving a sampled drumkit
        with multi sampled drums. Especially if they also have multiple keys
	for variations of each drum.
20.10. (ng)
      - I replaced double by float in Pos::msf method at file pos.cc
	and that prevents the segfault that occurs when launching muse.
	Although float precision should be fine that hack obviously hasn't
	fixed the bug, just hide it!
      - Initialize _timeType with AL::Tick in tcanvas.cc because it was used
	uninitialized.
9.10. (ws)
      - extend cmake scripts to automatically distinguish between jackd 0.103.0
        as distributed with (k)ubuntu and current jackd 0.107.0
      - fixes for texexec
      - do not automatically build documentation; new make targets "program_doc" and
        "manual"
22.9. (ws)
      - fixed wavetrack playback
17.9. (rj)
      - changed to start/stop toggle without rewinding since this seems
      like the popular choice (actually I have to agree)
      - some keyboard navigation beginnings...nothing working yet
      - added some debug messages
17.6. (ws)
      - organ synthesizer plugin update
9.6. (ws)

23.5. (ws)
      - midi import fixes
19.04 (ws)
      - disable routing buttons in mixer strip when in off state
      - fixed crash when removing track from mixer
      - framework for importing muse0.9 projectfiles
      - align buffer in dummy audio driver so that the sse routines
        do not choke; same for AuxPluginF, Pipeline, Fifo
18.04 (ws)
      - simplify mixer strip geometry manager
      - changed track list layout: track name now always uses one
        textline; remove configure option for track name size

17.04 (ws)
      - replace some heartBeat signal/slot connections with
        direct calls for better performance

      - added some sse routines to optimize mixing
15.03 (ng)
      - update IV miditracker

02.02 (ng)
      - updated partlistedit, direct editing of time & parameters on list edit
01.02 (ng)

      - changed DSSI initialization making whysynth work
      (ng)
      - added operator== for EventBase, MidiEventBase and PosLen
      - modified Event::operator== to match on the content instead of the pointer
      - added insert note event and delete note and sysex event in List Editor
23.01 (ng)

     - fixed trackInfo updating for tracks without their own trackInfo (rj)

       it's lousy because it's updating the trackInfo even though the
       removed track wasn't highlighted, can place you in a tight spot
       at times. I added it anyway because it removes a crash problem.
       a better fix would be preferable. (rj)

        This allows for independent selections in different drum
        editors. (ws)

        drum instrument specific NRPN controllers (controller number
        contains pitch value) (ws)

16.1  - Added small fix to editctrlbase.ui to make it compile (RJ)
      - Updated various revision info in README (RJ)

15.1  - Corrected appearance of buttons in Metronome window (FN)

9.1
      - "record" button in midi ChannelInfo; pressing this button
        inserts changes in hbank/lbank/program/pan/volume as
        controller events into song
      - pianoroll editor: new "multi select mode": If more than one
        event is selected, the event info spinboxes are set to zero.

             The GUI is startet as a separate process connected
             to the midi instrument. The gui sends midi commands
             (sysex) to stdout. This midi data stream is connected
             to the midi instrument port.

            - play
      - fixed: graphic master editor: missing display refresh
        after signature change

        "midi thru" now is associated with a track, if set all input
        to that track is echoet to track port/channel

0.4.5:
      MESSS: (MusE Experimental Software Synthesizer interface Spec):
        A software synthesizer is implemented as a dynamic
        loadable library (*.so file) with two interfaces to the
        outside world:

            - a LADSPA interface for audio output
            - a midi sequencer interface registered to ALSA

      MusE searches all available synths and presents a list
      in Config->SoftSynthesizer. To use a synthesizer you have
      to create an instance. Several instances of an synt can be
      created and used. Every instance creates

        a) an alsa midi sequencer port (look at Config->MidiPorts)
        b) a new strip in the audio mixer

      As a demo i ported a stripped down version of the iiwu
      software synthesizer (http://www.iiwu.org) to MusE.
      Setup info is in README.softsynth
