-------------------
* v2.2a, 20-feb-1993
Stop-command changed: in Protracker mode, a zero speed command
stops the player at the current location - restart it with 'PLAY',
while in non-protracker mode it is simply ignored.
Internals adapted to the lower F030 sampling freq's (KHz) in STE
DMA mode:
ST STE TT F030
Hi: 6.1 12.5 12.6 12.3
Med: 9.6 25 25.1 24.6
Low: 12.2 50 50.3 49.2
This change was necessary because the sampling frequency difference
between a TT and a F030 is such that it gives 35 cent pitch change
(awful for musicians!!).
* v2.2, 1-feb-1993
Correct CIA-timing implemented. Paula is now the only player which
is really compatible to every MOD-format - including the very old
Soundtracker 1.2 format introduced 1986 by K. Obarski.
New hardware register access code - should now work on the FALCON
if it is in 'STE-Compatibility-mode'.
Old 15-instrument modules are always considered as non-protracker
compliant.
Finetune routines will also work with non-standard period values to
be more compatible to some PC mod editors.
* v2.1c, 11-jan-1993
Bugfix in the PT2.1 replay routine - one asm opcode changed.
* v2.1b, 1-jan-1993
Improved chip emulator (resampling routines): very short, looped
samples are now played much more precise at low sampling rates.
When loading a file with the main window opened, a busybee is
displayed.
Bugfix: the 'Note Delay' Command was erroneous. Any player based on
the 'PT-Replay 1.1B'-Routine will experience this bug.
The play routine has also been updated to >>> PROTRACKER 2.1A <<<.
* v2.1a, 30-oct-1992
Bugfixes: 1. the lz5 depack routine had some problems with
MultiTOS' memory protection...
2. if one MOD was corrupted the following MOD was always
assumed to be a packed one -> crash. But only on registered copies.
Bad, very BAD...
3. samples longer than 64 Kbyte were problematic
* v2.1, 18-oct-1992
Added AFX/Lz5 packed module support. Packed MODs are only useable
with registered PAULA releases.
Hint: instead of having AFX.PRG depacking your MODs, let Paula do
this job. It's faster!
* v2.0d
Bugfix: a single MOD was always repeated in earlier versions.
* v2.0c
?bugfix, dunno what.
* v2.0b, 27-aug-1992
Bug related to LetEmFly fixed. (bug report: M. Schmitz)
* v2.0a, 23-aug-1992
The length of the 'key'-field had to be changed to 16 chars.
* v2.0, 20-aug-1992
From now on, Paula is Shareware. Further releases will include new
features which will only be operational if you got a registered
copy.
Most parts have been rewritten from scratch in C.
A new sequencer, the PROTRACKER PLAYER v1.1b has been built in -
that guarantees maximum 'Amiga'-compatibility.
The Amiga Soundchip emulator has been enhanced; interpolation is
now as fast as it can be on 68030's.
* v1.0 through v1.9
Well, these versions are still freeware...
