As instrument zone are common to all preset zones, an instrument zone cannot uniquely identified by a preset zone name.
Note: instrument zone name and preset zone name are used in warning about invalid modulators.
-Name of an instrument zone shouldn't prefixed by the preset zone
name.
This is due to the fact that instrument zone are common to all
preset zone. Consequently, an instrument zone cannot identfied
via a preset zone.
-This new change, simply prefixe a zone as this:
instrument zone name prefixed by iz:
preset zone name prefixed by pz:
Normalized value of MIDI sources (before unipolar or bipolar mapping) is always in the range [0..+1], regardless of MIDI event (even for FLUID_MOD_PITCHWHEEL).
Actually some basic modulators check are done at noteon time (in fluid_voice_add_mod()). That means that we know if a modulator (modx) is invalid only when a MIDI noteon is received and only for a preset modx belongs to. This is not appropriate.
This moves the modulator checking at soundfont loading time. Enhancements are:
1) A better verbose modulator integrity check, for any soundfont loaded at appropriate time.
1.1) All modulators are checked (preset zone (local/global), instrument zone (local/global).
1.2.1) Modulators check are enforced to source src1 and src2 (for non-CC and CC sources) (following SF specs (except for CC LSB) ( see comment in fluid_synth_cc_LOCAL()).
Modulators CC sources checking is coherent with the actual behaviour in fluid_synth_cc_LOCAL() in regard of modulation triggering.
1.2.2) Also, identical modulator in the same zone are detected.
1.2.3) Any invalid modulator(sources invalid, or modulator identical) is removed at loading time with a warning message displaying the cause and name of the modulators.
2) This fix a bug in noteon, in the case of identical modulators in global preset zone.
Assuming 2 identical modulator (m1 and m2) in a preset global zone, the actual noteon doesn't check this case (the actual code detect identical modulator in all others zones (instrument (local or global), preset(local)) but not preset global).
3) NoteOn is faster.
3.1)There is no more modulators checks at noteon making this more efficient.
3.2) As there are no identical modulator in the same zone, there is no more identity modulator check (i.e local zone against local zone), (i.e global zone against global zone). This result in a faster code and the bug described in (2) is gone.
4) Modulators sources checking as been added in API functions fluid_synth_add_default_mod() and fluid_voice_add_mod(). Please
- When primary source input (src1) is set to General Controller
'No Controller', output will be forced to 0.0 at synthesis time
(see fluid_mod_get_value()).
That means that the minimum value of the modulator will be always 0.0.
We need to force amount value to 0 to ensure a correct evaluation of the
minimum value later (see fluid_voice_get_lower_boundary_for_attenuation()).
- When secondary source input (src2) is set to General
Controller 'No Controller', output will be forced to +1.0 at synthesis time
(see fluid_mod_get_value()).
That means that this source will behave unipolar only. We need to force the
unipolar flags to ensure the modulator will behave correctly later in
fluid_voice_get_lower_boundary_for_attenuation().
