So I've found this on the web:

http://www.omifacsimiles.com/brochures/images/fresco_toc.jpg

There's an F-clef on the 4th staff line (\setclef16) and a
C-clef on the 7th staff line, which are consistent. But how
does one position a C-clef on the 7th staff line in MusiXTeX?

The choice of clef affects the placement of notes. How
will notes be placed if both an F clef and a C clef are in
effect? There doesn't seem to be a *consistent* combination
of F and C clefs. For example, \setclef15 puts an F clef on
the 3rd staff line but there is no command to put a C clef
on the 5th staff line. Can you show me how you "set and
position the second clef manually".

I've set a sym-link so that URL should now work. Dieter may
not realize that in Unix-like systems Upper and Lower case
characters in filenames are distinct.

The filename should have `LINUX`, not `linux`. Easiest is to
copy-and-paste only the directory name, your browser will
offer the files.

Re: [Tex-music] Italian Keyboard Tablature: Clefs

[Jean-Pierre Coulon]

If you dislike this notation read 
http://imslp.org/wiki/Il_Transilvano_(Various) Part 2, about "intavolare" 
= to put 3 or 4 one-part staves into 2 staves. The notes played by either 
hand are always put into its corresponding staff. No dotted lines accross 
staves are needed to denote the parts like in a modern score. Same for r.h 
and l.h. indications. :-)

This is the standard combination, used in Frescobaldis Toccata-prints and many 
others:

MWE:

\input musixtex
\sepbarrules
\setlines{1}{8}
\setclef1\bass
\setbassclefsymbol1\smallbassclef
\startpiece
\loffset{2.8}{\zcharnote{i}{\smallaltoclef}}
\stoppiece
\end

I admit, it is a very dirty workaround, but the only one I could come up with.

[Tex-music] Converter from MusicXML to PMX available

[Dieter]

Dear MusixTeXperts,

pls. find below links to Windows-Exe and Linux-Binary of XML2PMX.

http://icking-music-archive.org/software/xml2pmx/XML2PMX_Windows.zip
http://icking-music-archive.org/software/xml2pmx/XML2PMX_linux.tar.gz

1. "MusicXML" (of Recordare INC) is an extremely powerful description language 
for data exchange of musical notes.

2. "PMX" is the well known preprocessor for the musical typesetting system 
MusiXTeX.

3.  XML2PMX.exe is a converter (on MS Windows) from "MusicXML"  to "PMX"
and has been developed with Oberon for Windows 2.5 of ETHZ Zürich on 
Windows 7.
Linux binary version is available as well.

The following features have been included:

- maximum  of 24 staves/voices and 500 measures
- two voices per staff
- maximum of two staves per instrument
- notes and rests up to 64th, including tuplets and grace notes,
- maximum of 2 dots
- chords, accidentals
- some annotations like Fermata, Staccato, Tremolo etc.
- ties, slurs and beams
- definition of meter, fifths, clefs and their changes on the fly
- dynamic marks: hairpins, "ff" etc., piano damping pedal
- title and composer, and texts above or below the staff
- barlines, repeats, volta
- instrument names,
- origin of XML file copied to the resulting PMX file
- accepts Windows files  (records ended by 0DX OAX)
  as well as Unix files  (records ended by 0AX)
- resulting PMX-file has records ended by 0AX.

These features may not always function to a 100 % in all situations,
but once you have a PMX file with all of the notes extracted, the bulk 
work has been done.
It is then easy to improve the results on the PMX side.

4.  Usage on MS Windows or LINUX command line:
XML2PMX "xml-file with path" "pmx-file with path"
(The doublequotes are essential!)

The generated PMX file will in general be complete and will run through 
"pmxab.exe".

If not, you can often solve the problem with minor changes in the PMX 
code.

After the XML2PMX run you will find intermediate results in the 
terminal window which may be helpful
for debugging.

Some more elaborate situations like staves crossing beams or chords  
have not yet been covered.

5.  You will find MusicXML-sources for testing under:
http://www.musicxml.com/music-in-musicxml/example-set/

The following pieces from this source (and a few more) have been tested:

- Schubert: Ave Maria (Ellen’s Gesang III), D. 839

- Beethoven: An die ferne Geliebte, Op. 98

- Lee Actor "Prelude to a tragedy": sample with 22 instruments and 41 
measures

- Scanner results like from Sharpeye (Visiv, UK) have also been tested 
successfully.

6.  Contents:
Main folder "XML2PMX_LINUX" contains:
- Folder "example" with *.XML, *.PMX, *.pdf
- Folder "source" with the Oberon source code.
- XML2PMX executable
- GNU-GPL.txt
- this Readme.txt
