# 0.1.0 development release notes
|
||
|
||
This remains a development prototype, not a production-qualified DAW. Phase 30
|
||
completes the local release workflow without bumping the application version,
|
||
creating a tag or publishing artifacts. The exact source archive SHA-256 and
|
||
reviewed Git commit identify a build; version 0.1.0 alone does not identify all
|
||
of the development revisions that used that version.
|
||
|
||
## Included functionality
|
||
|
||
The C99 engine provides bounded graphs, immutable plan publication, stereo audio,
|
||
MIDI instruments and controller bindings, track/bus mixing, automation and inline
|
||
MIDI editing. The C++17 FLTK application adds arrangement, routing, recording,
|
||
undo/redo and a generic LADSPA editor. JACK is the only live audio/MIDI backend;
|
||
core validation and offline rendering work without it. Native/LADSPA processors
|
||
are trusted in-process code. No proprietary energyXT resources are included.
|
||
|
||
Project format v10 reads versions 1–10 transactionally. Syntax diagnostics identify
|
||
records and lines. `xtc-check --inspect` lists dependency paths without executing
|
||
plugins. Phase 29 adds timing/CPU/RSS reports, repeatable stress runs and virtual
|
||
endurance. Phase 30 adds configurable install directories, shared install/remove
|
||
inventory, installed MIDI examples and source archive checksum sidecars.
|
||
|
||
## Upgrading and removal
|
||
|
||
Back up documents and external media before upgrading. Opening an older project
|
||
does not rewrite it; saving upgrades it to v10, which older readers may reject.
|
||
Use Save As for a separate migrated copy. Moving a project folder preserves media
|
||
stored inside it via relative references. Absolute media and plugin module paths
|
||
must be restored separately. There is no bundled plugin/media migration or saved
|
||
JACK port configuration. See PROJECT_FORMAT.md and RECOVERY.md for exact policies.
|
||
|
||
Install to the same layout to repair owned files. Only documented owned filenames
|
||
are replaced; unrelated files with other names remain. Use the same source
|
||
version and directory variables for uninstall. It removes owned files and empty
|
||
owned directories, never recordings or recursively deleting a prefix. A changed
|
||
layout or an older release with a different inventory may require removing that
|
||
old version before installing the new one. No database/package-manager registration
|
||
or automatic cleanup of historical inventories is performed.
|
||
|
||
## Known qualification limits
|
||
|
||
Physical devices, multi-hour wall-clock endurance, power-cut behavior and other
|
||
Linux distributions remain unqualified. There is no disk streaming, crash autosave,
|
||
plugin sandbox, latency compensation or stable shared-library ABI. A trusted
|
||
plugin can allocate, block or crash the process. Metadata inspection checks file
|
||
availability only. See KNOWN_LIMITATIONS.md for the complete list.
|
||
|
||
The retained graph performance gate has a documented small-case timing alert on
|
||
the shared development host; the project timing comparison passed. This alert
|
||
was not hidden by changing the baseline. See PERFORMANCE.md before using these
|
||
measurements as latency expectations. Sanitizers and virtual endurance qualify
|
||
software paths, not hardware timing.
