[Tex-music] accent on a whole note

Re: [Tex-music] PMX grace note problem
Don--,
it's great, when you find some time for improvements. From the point of
view of the testsuite, I would be most interested in dealing with the
quarter grace notes in the 3rd bar. Concerning stem length of sixteenth
notes and slurs I find Liliyponds dimensions nicer.

Dieter—
Speaking of more relevant problems, I noticed one in this example: It
seems that PMX cannot do the after-grace on the last note of bar 2.
But that could be even more tricky to fix.
I also thought it would be interesting to directly compare the layout
PMX produces vs the one from Lilypond.
Lilypond, then PMX at 16 pt:
Several things I notice:
1. On the double-beamed graces, PMX’s stem could be shorter. I’ve
noticed all along that the MusiXTeX default stem length on
multiply beamed notes is longer than I would prefer. I think it
just builds outward from the single-beam height. For non-grace
notes you can change the beam height case-by-case, but I doubt
it’s currently possible with graces in PMX.
2. PMX has a noticeably wider blank space at the end of each bar.
3. PMX’s grace note bodies are all a bit closer to the main note than
Lilypond’s. But on single graces, Lilypond’s flag drops lower than
MusixTeX’s.
4. PMX’s slurs end before crossing the main stem; Lilypond’s cross it.
I’m open to comments and possible code revisions on any of this.

Re: [Tex-music] PMX error with unusual triplets in a file created withxml2pmx
Since Bodo's triplet constructs are already not quite straightforward
within PMX, it will be difficult to catch them with XML2PMX.
I will think about it after the next release.

Hello Andre,
thank you for the suggestion.
The PMX file was generated with Dieter's xml2pmx program from valid ABC
notation via conversion to valid MusicXML, and the ABC notation is the
main source. The original peace contains more bars with this type of
triplet. So modifying the PMX input would be a tedious task.
Nevertheless, a solution for this problem might be useful for a possible
improvement of xml2pmx.
Your solution prints a 6-tuplet while the original score uses a triplet.
I was already able to fix this by appending "n3". With this change the
first bar looks like this:
% ( 1| 1| 1) 1
\zcharnote{12}{\metron{\qu}{80}}\ [ g24x6n3 a4 b4D c5D ] [ a44x3 g4
f4 ] /
Is it possible to get the two 1/8 notes beamed?
A minor problem is the collision of the tempo specification with the
triplet bracket. I didn't test yet if such a collision would also occur
with the full original score.
Best regards,
Bodo

Thanks for the PDF. Now I can attack the problem. But will you be satisfied
with a solution that might involve in-line TeX in the PMX file? Without
experimenting, I'm not sure PMX can handle more than one staff-crossing beam
within a bar.

Hi, Don, thanks indeed...
The problem is in bar 184... I've been trying to fix it but don't manage to.
In-line TeX should not be a problem for me, nay my final purpose is just the

Hi Danai! Did you have a look into "Readme2020.txt"? XML2PMX is a 32-Bit-Binary on UBUNTU. I did not test this on a 64-Bit-machine.

Has somebody got an idea to solve the following problem? We have note-sheets in A4 portrait. And we want to print them recto/verso and enlarged by 25 % on A3-paper in landscape. That means the A4-sheets have to be rotated by 90 °. And we need to align the front and backside, in order to cut them properly.

From musixdoc.pdf:
These marks are horizontally centered relative to
solid note heads. To compensate for the fact that
whole notes are wider, you should use \wholeshift{Any
nonspacing macro} to center accents and other items (e.g.,
\Fermataup) above a whole note.
Bob
Hi Bob, thanks for your rapid reply. But I need another helping hand.
Where do I put the \wholeshift{} ?

Subject: [Tex-music] New PMX version with gaps
I've produced a new version of PMX (2.90) that lets you put a blank gap at
the end or in the middle of a system. It was very challenging and still
has
known deficiencies, but is at a stage where I would very much appreciate
having as many people as possible try it out and report any bugs you find.
Until it shows up on WIMA, you can get a zip of the distribution here:
www.pchpublish.com/bbbxv/pmx290.zip
The file BlankGaps.pdf explains the new syntax.
The known deficiencies are (1) It cannot yet be used in the first system
of the
score; (2) It doesn't yet properly handle automagically inserting extra
space
when needed for accidentals or other items in the gapped system if it is
too
crowded (this can temporarily be addressed by manually inserting gaps with
the "X" command); (3) You can change the barline symbol from the default
one at the end of the segment before or after the gap with an "R"
command option on the last note in voice 1, but that command MUST be the
very last one before the group-ending "/".
Once again, please give it a workout and report any bugs or issues.

Subject: [Tex-music] New PMX version with gaps
I've produced a new version of PMX (2.90) that lets you put a blank gap at
the end or in the middle of a system. It was very challenging and still
has
known deficiencies, but is at a stage where I would very much appreciate
having as many people as possible try it out and report any bugs you find.
Until it shows up on WIMA, you can get a zip of the distribution here:
www.pchpublish.com/bbbxv/pmx290.zip
The file BlankGaps.pdf explains the new syntax.
The known deficiencies are (1) It cannot yet be used in the first system
of the
score; (2) It doesn't yet properly handle automagically inserting extra
space
when needed for accidentals or other items in the gapped system if it is
too
crowded (this can temporarily be addressed by manually inserting gaps with
the "X" command); (3) You can change the barline symbol from the default
one at the end of the segment before or after the gap with an "R"
command option on the last note in voice 1, but that command MUST be the
very last one before the group-ending "/".
Once again, please give it a workout and report any bugs or issues.

[Tex-music] Limit of Bar numbers and Systems in PMX and MusiXTeX
I am working with a friend from Switzerland on a PMX document for the 1st Violin in the 1st Symphony of Gustav Mahler. This beast has a total of 1707 Bars and about 200 Systems. Obviously this does not fit within the limits of PMX (600 Bars, 125 Systems). And I guess MusiXTex has similar limits. The four movements have 450, 358, 168, and 731 Bars, respectively. Would it be feasible and reasonable to raise the Bar limit, correspondingly?

[Tex-music] PMX and Trills
When I test the Trills with PMX, everything looks as it should.
However when I look at the beginning of Mozarts "Sonate Facile" (from
MuseScore via MusicXML) it looks differently.
I cannot find a reason, why the trill in Bar 4 behaves differently from
the one in Bar 15.
(PMX attached.)
Thanks and regards, Dieter

Re: [Tex-music] Problem with pmx file
Hi Rodolfo, the problem of XML2PMX with respect to Sonate facile of Mozart has been identified. There seems to be new syntax of MusicXML, which I see for the first time. Please look at Measure 25 of <> The trill in the right hand has been modelled twice: * once as a whole note for the note sheet * and once as thirtytwo 32nd notes: a35, b, a, b . . .etc. for MIDI I will have to remove the explicit trill.

Regards, Dieter Hi, Dieter! the XML file was one of my many attempts to use XML2PMX. I'm afraid I didn't save it. It was an xml file modified by me in order to have XML2PMX work on it. I'm attaching the original file, that I got in internet. Unfortunately, in my experience, XML2PMX only works on the sample files you report in Readme.txt: with most other xml files I've found in internet, XML2PMX fails for me under both Linux and Windows. How come...? For example, with the file I'm attaching now, I'd be curious to know why XML2PMX fails. Also, it fails for me, as I said, on the xmls coming from Musescore. You said there's something special with them. What special...? I'd be curious. I've studied now MusicXML language a bit. I hope you can work it out and fix it... Maybe could I have your new experimental version, while waiting for the official new one...? Please let me know...

Judged from my quality assurance while maintaining WIMA 2001-2012 I'd not recommend that proposal. My experience is that the quality of score contributions varies substantially. How would you now from a pmx engraving source ONLY that the engraver has prepared a proper score? You need a PDF result to evaluate that.

How could I move the circled number horizontally to the beginning (or
end) of a bar?
Thanks!

Hi Don,
it is totally straightforward. I should have known before.

and the result is:
It is very helpful to extend PMX with MusiXTeX elements.

Hi Don,
it is amazing how easy it is to use the cue notes with PMX.
>I will try and fiddle a bit with the X-command. May I ask another question?
I try using \boxit or \circleit in PMX for rehearsal marks. But they always
drop inside the stave. How could I move these boxes above stave?
Or is there another solution.

First, good job simplifying the procedure for making notes smaller.
As for shrinking the spacing, once again I have a klunky answer but
not a good one. The PMX command X can be used with a negative
argument, so for example X-.5 will shrink the local space by 0.5
notehead widths. Problem is that you’d need to put in a separate one
of these in EVERY space you wanted to shrink, and if you wanted to
maintain the right scaling, you’d need different amounts of shrinkage
for different length notes. Maybe Andre can come up with a better way J.

it uses the \noteskip that’s already been set. Here’s a short

You can use spaces inside the "..." to shift the symbol to the right. You

However, I started using MusiXTeX and PMX in the meantime and did have quite
a hard time finding appropriate PMX example files for my particular needs.
E.g. the first example I became aware of that would be with lyrics, was
netsoos.pmx (it's mentioned in section 6.1 of the PMX manual), but since I
could not produce a netsoos.pmx from the netsoos.mtx I had to go on
searching for another example.
Note that netsoos.pmx uses the M-Tx lyrics system: everything is done by
inline TeX using macros from mtx.tex. There is nowadays a native PMX lyrics
system that does not require you to load mtx.tex

Re: [Tex-music] Produce midi file from MusiXTeX code
Hi Bodo, your hint to "audiveris" is interesting. I tried to use audiveris a few years ago. And I was very much disappointed, because I was not even able to install it. And that was due to an OCR package of google which was stored in the wrong place. If it has changed, the better. Using SharpEye I never had a problem with the generated XML-code. The SharpEye Editor is really powerful and systematically controls the duration of Bars. Sure my XML2PMX does have its limits, for example it cannot (yet) treat stave-crossing beams. So if it works (99 % of the cases ;-) ), it is not a big effort for me. When it means new features, then it may take a bit longer.

I don't have MS Windows nor Apple Mac on both my two PCs, I have Linux on both... Hello Rodolfo, if it's a reasonable amount of work, someone from this list may do the scanning/conversion for you. (Dieter may also use your PDF to test/improve the MusicXML-to-PMX converter.) If you want to do the scan process yourself you can try Audiveris https://github.com/audiveris I only tried the earlier generation about a year ago, which was not able to convert all files. There is also an online conversion service that converts a PDF to a MuseScore file. This service uses Audiveris, don't know if they use the current generation. MuseScore is free and can export MusicXML. The import service requires free registration on the MuseScore site. https://musescore.com/import Kind regards, Bodo --- TeX-music@tug.org mailing list If you want to unsubscribe or look at the archives, go to http://tug.org/mailman/listinfo/tex-music -- ____ Dr. Dieter Glötzel Im Rosengarten 27 64367 Mühltal Tel.: 06151 / 360 82 72 --- TeX-music@tug.org mailing list If you want to unsubscribe or look at the archives, go to http://tug.org/mailman/listinfo/tex-music
Re: [Tex-music] Produce midi file from MusiXTeX code
I want to clarify clarify, how to solve Rodolfo's problem with Sharpeye and XML2PMX. 1. MusiXTeX produces note sheets in a PDF-file 2. "FreePDF to TIFF converter" Creates TIF-file(s) from PDF-file 3. SharpEye reads TIF, then we can manually correct any scanning error with the SharpEye Notes Editor 4. SharpEye creates MusixXML 5. XML2PMX creates PMX-Input 6. PMX creates midi But beware, that this midi file is not made for a beauty contest, but only for auditively controling the note pitch. For example the effect of ties is not taken into account. Rodolfo is still invited to send me his PDF-file, so that I can try. Regards, Dieter Am 16.01.2018 um 10:09 schrieb Rodolfo Medina: "Don Simons" <dsim...@roadrunner.com> writes: The original question was how to create midi from MusiXTeX.

Re: [Tex-music] Produce midi file from MusiXTeX code
Hi Rodolfo, Bob's Photoscore solution looks quite powerful. In case that you want to try "XML2PMX" instead, just send me a pdf. And I will see what I can do. WIth this procedure you will also get a pmx-file.

If the MusiXTeX code was generated by PMX, you can get a midi using pmxab on the source. Otherwise, you'll need a program that can scan the generated PDF.

Re: [Tex-music] Request for help with staff gaps in PMX
Thanks to all contributors to this conversation. I find the white space solution most brilliant. And it is the only one suitable for me, because I do not understand enough TeX. Regards, Dieter Am 15.10.2017 um 21:22 schrieb Don Simons: Based on recent list postings, I'm considering implementing staff gaps in PMX. (Since the need is so rare, this is mainly an intellectual challenge). It would use psframe from pstricks, to paint a white box from one barline to the next, covering the full height of the system. The psframe construct requires the use to select an insertion point and to designate the vertical and horizontal distances from that point to the lower left and upper right corners of the box. In the example I used as the insertion point the first default musixtex position after the left barline, and I got the relative corner locations by trial and error. What I'm asking for here is some help in working out how to teach PMX to automagically select all of the necessary parameters, using info buried in musixtex. I'm thinking the insertion point should probably come at the right barline, so musixtex knows where it is and can work backwards from there to the previous barline to get the width of the measure. Horizontally, the insertion point should probably be at the bottom of the lowest staff (as in my earlier example). I'd then need to know how to calculate the vertical distance from there to the top line of the top staff using musixtex parameters. If anyone cares to tackle this, the best way to communicate it would be to generate a musixtex file from a PMX file, then provide a manually doctored tex file, or maybe use inline tex in the PMX file. --Don --- TeX-music@tug.org mailing list If you want to unsubscribe or look at the archives, go to http://tug.org/mailman/listinfo/tex-music --- TeX-music@tug.org mailing list If you want to unsubscribe or look at the archives, go to http://tug.org/mailman/listinfo/tex-music

[Tex-music] UTF8 and MusiXTeX
Good Morning,
you may have noticed, that I published on the WIMA page a converter from
MusicXML to PMX, called XML2PMX.
The XML stuff is all coded in UTF8. When I have chants with German
lyrics with Umlaut (äöüß), I have to manually translate to the TeX
abbreviations like \"{o} etc.
Of course I could try to automatize this process. But I would prefer,
when MusiXTeX would function with UTF8. With LaTeX you can load a UTF8
encoding package, but with TeX I have not heard of such a thing.
Anybody got an idea about the feasibility?
Regards,
Dieter

Re: [Tex-music] trio with interstaff beam puzzle
Hi Don and André,
when all these intersting triplet cases have been solved inside PMX, I
propose another one in this area:
which was realized (if I remember properly by André) as:

Don's solution is a handsome discovery, but had a drawback that i

Now i humbly ask for allowing rests at the end of xtuplets. And also
for combined flags and beams in xtuplets.

Re: [Tex-music] XML2PMX ramblings
Am 18.01.2017 um 18:11 schrieb Don Simons: Dieter Gloetzel and I have been working together to identify (both of us) and fix (Dieter) some issues in XML2PMX. One (admittedly rare) problem we found occurs when the PMX score produced by XML2PMX has more than 10 slurs + ties going across a page break. We traced it to a limitation in Stanislav Kneifl’s postscript slur package. Although Stanislav is hesitant to actively re-engage in MusiXTeX programming after 10 years of absence, he did provide some pointers. By mimicking the existing patterns of register allocation in musixps.tex, my limited knowledge of TeX then allowed me to bump that up to 14 but no more. Given etex’s massively enhanced register capacity over the older version of TeX that Stanislav used as a basis, we’re wondering if anyone on the list with a deeper understanding of TeX would be willing to dig into this and try to bump it up further, to 20 or 30 or more. Please contact me if so. I’ve encountered another slightly related matter that raised some interesting points. For performance purposes, I’d like to use PMX to make a harpsichord part for Bach’s 5^th Brandenburg movement II that has more legible figures than the only figured one I could find on IMSLP. I naively thought maybe I could save a little effort by finding an XML file of it and using XML2PMX to get started. I couldn’t find one, but I have found both a MIDI and a Finale file. I also found a free program MuseScore 2 that can convert MIDI to XML. I succeeded in importing the MIDI into MuseScore, but quickly realized something that seems to render any further effort along this track pointless. Any MIDI file with any sophistication at all (including those produced by PMX!) will have built in gaps between successive notes in the same voice, even if there’s no rest in the source. But MuseScore doesn’t know how to deal with that fact, so it dutifully puts in lots of 64^th and 128^th rests into the exported XML file. FWIW XML2PMX could not handle that, possibly because PMX can’t really do 128^th rests. As for the Finale file, MuseScore won’t input it, and I don’t know of any other free S/W I could use to convert it to XML. The good news is that the movement is not very long and making the PMX from scratch will not be too difficult. --Don Simons --- TeX-music@tug.org mailing list If you want to unsubscribe or look at the archives, go to http://tug.org/mailman/listinfo/tex-music Hi Don, I have made some good experience with XML2PMX and musical OCR, using Sharpeye from Visiv.

Re: [Tex-music] XML2PMX New Version!
Hi André, the reason is, that there are no notes stored with the piano staves. You can check this easily, when you open "Nikkelen.xml" and search for the first occurence of "<step". Then you will see that the sounds start at "Line 2355: A". This is the "A" of the voice in measure 10. Also it is uncommon to put the voice after the piano in the partiture. Try to get a complete xml-file or send me a pdf-file of the complete piece (piano and voice), then I run it through Sharpeye and XML2PMX. A good paper copy will also do.

Introduction "MusicXML", ( http://www.musicxml.com/ ) originally developed by Recordare INC and now owned by Finale ( https://www.finalemusic.com/ ), is the leading musical data exchange format. XML2PMX provides an import facility for sheet music stored in MusicXML format to PMX and MusiXTeX, the leading free software for musical typesetting. Thus we are now able to import published MusicXML sources as well as MusicXML sources created by OCR scanning, e.g. with Sharpeye of VISIV ( http://www.visiv.co.uk ). 2. PMX developed by Don Simons (dsimons(at)roadrunner(dot)com) is an easy to use, yet powerful preprocessor for the musical typesetting system MusiXTeX. http://icking-music-archive.org/software/htdocs/index.html An excellent introduction to using PMX is http://icking-music-archive.org/software/pmx/pmxccn.pdf 3. XML2PMX has been developed by the author with "Oberon Plugin for Windows Version 2.5" of ETHZ Zürich on Windows 10. https://github.com/Spirit-of-Oberon/ETH-Oberon-PlugIn-Win32 XML2PMX is available as Windows-EXE (32 Bit) and as Linux binary (32 Bit). XML2PMX requires a TeX, MusiXTeX and PMX installation. For Unix please see: https://tug.org/texlive/ For Windows please see: https://miktex.org/2.9/setup 4. Coverage of MusicXML The following MusicXML features are detected and translated to PMX: - maximum of 24 staves/voices and 400 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 on Unix has records ended by 0AX. - resulting PMX-file on Windows has records ended by 0DX 0AX. 5. New features: - There is a new command line field "options", which may contain one or several of the five letters "PDVSL" in arbitrary sequence in upper or lower case. - Lyrics are extracted and stored in a separate file (option L=Lyrics) - several options for console output (P=parsed data, D=directions, V=voices, S=statistics,) - automatic detection of pickup - incomplete measures or voices are automatically filled with blind rests 6. Limitations Some more elaborate situations like beams crossing staves or chords crossing staves
Re: [Tex-music] 128th notes and rests in PMX?
It is amazing, what PMX can do. The most important use cases for 128th notes seem alredy to be covered by PMX. And I wonder whether there exists any piece of music, which contains a combination of lone 128th notes and rests. It might be difficult to identify all these special case in the MusicXML file. But XML2PMX will always produce a PMX-file as result , which you then can manipulate.

I was wrong, there is a way: g3x2dn g So we have found ways to get PMX to produce most flavors of 128th notes, as long as it's inside a beam (together with at least one other note). To progress any further than this, it's not clear whether it would take more programming effort on Dieter's part in XML2PMX to make XML2PMX 128th-note-capable within this restriction, or on my part in PMX to extend "normal" input notation using 5 or 7 for a 128th, and then either (1) internally take advantage of the xtuplet tricks, or (2) go all the way, which would involve completely revamping PMX's time accounting. To be realistic, there's no chance at all I'd go route (2), and only a tiny chance for route (1). --Don --- TeX-music@tug.org mailing list If you want to unsubscribe or look at the archives, go to http://tug.org/mailman/listinfo/tex-music -- ____ Dr. Dieter Glötzel Im Rosengarten 27 64367 Mühltal Tel.: 06151 / 360 82 72 --- TeX-music@tug.org mailing list If you want to unsubscribe or look at the archives, go to http://tug.org/mailman/listinfo/tex-music

Liszt, Scriabin, Rachmaninov, anyone? So without completely revamping the timekeeping, basic 128th notes are not going to happen. PMX is always going to have to stop somewhere, and stopping at 64th notes is "not unreasonable". M-Tx, too, does timekeeping in units of 1/64 note.

Re: [Tex-music] 128th notes and rests in PMX?
Hi Don, your approach to use an integer for timing is similar to what MusicXML does. But they are using an integer parameter "dimensions", which signifies the duration of a quarter note. Everything else is being calculated relative to this value. It can be chosen according to needs (e.g. when you have triplets) and can even be modified during the music piece. In XML2PMX the "dimensions"-parameter is unchangeable, but may vary with the instrument. Regards, Dieter Am 14.12.2016 um 05:33 schrieb Don Simons: This is not an unreasonable request. But it would be very challenging, for reasons that go beyond my fading memory of deep, dark details about how I implemented time-handling in PMX. I had originally set up an internal time scale proportional to the duration of each note. I represented that scaled time with an integer, and (for reasons I cannot precisely recall) decided the minimum possible value (1) would correspond to a 64th note. So without completely revamping the timekeeping, basic 128th notes are not going to happen. Despite that, it does turn out that there's at least one way to get 128th notes if they come in pairs: 64th note duplets are allowed. So check this out: === 1 1 2 4 2 4 0 0 0 2 20 0 t .\ Abep g44 g8 g1 g3 g6 gx2 g / g44 [ g8 g1 g3 g6 gx2 g ] / === The forced beaming would be necessary even for longer duration but still beamable xtuplets embedded in beamed groups, so I won't call that an error. And you could get rid of the printed number by using the "n" option after "x2". And this also works with groups of 4 or more notes, e.g., g3x4 g g g and gd3x6 g g g g g work. Unfortunately, I don't think there's any way to trick PMX into doing g6.g. --Don Simons -Original Message- From: TeX-Music [mailto:tex-music-boun...@tug.org] On Behalf Of Dieter Sent: Tuesday, December 13, 2016 9:43 AM To: Werner Icking Music Archive <tex-music@tug.org> Subject: [Tex-music] 128th notes and rests in PMX?

Re: [Tex-music] Vertical spacing: AI-Option in PMX
Hi Don, thanks for your exhaustive and as always helpful explanations. My experience is also that with some experimentation one gets finally a decent solution. Obviously I managed to create a vshrink situation. Maybe one could put a warning into the next version documentation, that under certain conditions AI does not work as expected. Regards, Dieter Am 22.08.2016 um 09:27 schrieb Don Simons: I’m afraid I still cannot confidently provide a checklist of everything that affects PMX’s internal calculation of \interstaff. It’s very complicated, I worked it out a very long time ago, and I didn’t document or comment it very well in the code. If anyone cares to look in the FORTRAN, be my guest. There are some intriguing comments at line 19170 of pmxab.for ver 2.74, but the operations are scattered throughout the code. I will however offer some comments about Dieter’s issue and about vertical spacing in general. First, I’m virtually certain that using npages=0 had nothing to do with it. In all my tests on Dieter’s 2-system example, I’ve gotten exactly the same results with (npages,nsystems) = (0,4) as with (1,2). When PMX sets up a score, it computes a value of \interstaff based on how much vertical space is used by individual staves, titles, and some other items. It tries to set \interstaff so that when TeX spreads things out over the full page height (after \eject) it looks OK. If there is lots of blank vertical space, as there would be with just one or two systems in a normal page, then the computed \interstaff would come out unpleasantly big, and PMX goes into “vshrink” mode, setting \interstaff to 10 and using \vfill before \eject, thereby grouping everything at the top of the page. (I think the cutoff \interstaff is 20 but there’s some uncertainty there). In vshrink mode, AI does not seem to have any effect. One way to check if PMX is using vshrink mode is to look in the tex file and see if \interstaff is 10. If this happens and you still want to adjust vertical spacing, you have to get out of vshrink mode. There are two ways to do that. One is to issue the Av command. Then you will get things spread out more evenly over the full page height. \interstaff may come out bigger than you like, but now you can change it with AI. But if you only have two systems, you might also want less vertical space between them. I don’t know how to make PMX do that directly; you’d have to resort to inline tex, possibly inserting a \vfill at the end of the page before \eject. A second way to avoid vshrink is to make the page height smaller. There will always be some smaller page height that will coerce PMX not to go into “vshrink” mode. Then you can use AI, and you’ll also have reduced the vertical space between staves. PMX’s vertical spacing decisions should work fine, with no tinkering, for just about any ordinary music without lyrics, and you shouldn’t have to worry about anything in the previous paragraph. PMX’s automatic choice to go into vshrink mode will make sparse pages look just fine, with a few systems grouped at the top. The problem Dieter came upon was caused by the need to make room for lyrics in the space between the two staves in a system, on a page with just two systems of two staves each. And even that problem went away when he added a title, instrument, and author, because those used enough extra vertical space to avoid going into “vshrink” mode. --Don Simons *From:*Don Simons [mailto:dsim...@roadrunner.com] *Sent:* Saturday, August 20, 2016 1:58 PM *To:* 'Werner Icking Music Archive' <tex-music@tug.org> *Subject:* RE: [Tex-music] Vertical spacing: AI-Option in PMX Dieter and Andre— This issue is more complicated than it seems, and I’m afraid it’s been so long since I did the programming that it going to take me some more time to sort it out. The good news is that if you’re making a score, it’s very easy to experiment and you can almost always find a set of inputs that give you the vertical spacing you want. One thing I’ve noticed so far is this. Andre’s suggestion about changing (npages,nsystems) from (0,4) to (1,4) does lead to different vertical spacing, but it also leads to 4 systems on the page rather than 2, and that in itself completely changes the game. I don’t think npages=0 by itself changes the way AI operates, but it certainly can (and does in the example) influence the number of systems, and if it does change the number of systems, then of course it will change the vertical spacing. Another thing I’ve noticed is that if you remove the instrument, title, and composer from Dieter’s latest file, and don’t change anything else, you get a major change in the vertical spacing. I’ll report back when I’ve had a chance to review this more thoroughly. --Don Simons *From:*TeX-Music [mailto:tex-music-boun...@tug.org] *On Behalf Of *Andre Van Ryckeghem *Sent:* Friday, August 19, 2016 8:48 PM *To:* Werner Icking

[Tex-music] Vertical spacing: AI-Option in PMX
Hi,
I do have trouble in working with the AI Option of PMX for interstaff
spacing.
According to Noack:
I understand that \interstaff will be multiplied by x, when I use this
option. But what I find is for a certain configuration, that
the staff distance in a piano piece becomes bigger, when I set x to 0.5
insted of 1.0.
x = 0.5
x = 1.0
I am quite happy with the x =0.5 solution, but I would be happy to gain
some understanding of what is happening.

There are some wrinkles, though. To move a dot, there must be an
explicit “d” (even on a chord note), and the vertical shift must be
the next number after the “d”. So that may conflict with your default
way of explicitly indicating the octave.
The default position of dots within a staff is always in a space. If
the note is on a line, the default is to move the dot up. That’s why
all dots except the one on the c5 were moved, and also why the
downward shift has to be closer to 2 than 1.
Why in the world did you set the page height to 50 mm? That caused my
first page to be blank when I viewed this with Ghostview.

See the GNU General Public License for more details. You should have received a copy of the GNU General Public License along with this program. If not, see <http://www.gnu.org/licenses/>. 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.

Thanks. But in the next versions of MusiXTeX, I would hope that a new way
of `single note' transposition was introduced, so to affect, if desired,
only a
single note. This for two reasons: the notation with digits is not good
when
the piece is to be entirely transposed, and second because, with such a
`single note affecting transposition', it would be enough for the user, to
write
notes, just to remember the seven letters: a, b, c, d, e, f, g and their
capital
correspondent: A, B, C, D, E, F, G. So writing notes would be simpler.
I've been seeing the complicated negotiations that followed this, and
wondering all along "why?",
Because I hadn't thought of the simple solution to do 'p! and `p! and put
\zcharnote{}{} in parenthesis: {\zcharnote{}{}}.
until this morning when I looked up the start of
the thread. I still wonder why, given that PMX directly and simply addresses
both of the stated reasons --- full-score transposition and simple names for
notes. And furthermore, PMX implicitly handles another MusiXTeX
transposition issue: setting the default directions of beams.
Because, although I'm new to MusiXTeX, I'm an old plain TeX user so I'm
accustomed with plain TeX and its language and feel at ease and at home with
it, and MusiXTeX is written in plain TeX language.
Thanks,
Rodolfo

Hi Rodolfo,
why don't you give a try on PMX? I promise ( although you are an expert
on TeX ) it will speed up your music typesetting tremendously.
And in the saved time you could try to improve PMX's abilities in
keyboard fingering.

Hi Andre,
I am most impressed what you can do already with the "[j... ]j"

However the meaning of "\chorsi{^OM}" is not obvious for me.
I wonder whether I will understand enough, in order to make use of these

Re: [Tex-music] PMX 2.73
The latest 64Bit-Windows version from Bob runs without any problem. Let me point out, that PMX has been capable of handling lyrics with musixlyr (without M-Tx) , since I started to work with PMX many years ago. However this new solution is much more transparent and easier to use, than before. It will help me also when I include lyrics in the translation from MusicXML to PMX. --Dieter Gloetzel Am 31.01.2016 um 23:20 schrieb Don Simons: I'm very pleased to announce the availability of a beta version of PMX 2.73.

Re: [Tex-music] Sibelius to PMX
Hi Don, I have made good experience with the non free SHARPEye from Nvidia (UK): from scanned note sheet to MusicXML or Midi. Then I discovered a free product "Audiveris" from France, but did not yet succeed to install it. It is based on Java, and there was sort of a mess with respect to Java 32 Bit and Java 64 Bit. Would be great, when someone could resolve this problem. You can also send me the PDF and I will see what I can do. This Audiveris thing should be able to work directly on the PDF file and would not need additional scanning.

Re: [Tex-music] progress with XML2PMX
Hi Don, I know of these problems. But I wonder whether it is worthwile to try to solve them automatically.

PMX sets the beam height and slope based only on the main notes, and ignores any chordal notes. You would either need to tell it to make the beam higher, or enter the higher notes first (as main notes) while still forcing the beam to be an up-beam.

Now it has got a certain mileage, but before publishing it, I want to show you some results for discussion. /ActorPreludeSample.pdf /is the original notes sheet from Recordare Inc. /ActPreSam48.PMX/ has been generated from the published MusicXML-file with almost no manual operations. The only place, where I had to tweak PMX a bit, was in measures 24 and 25 for instruments 14, 18, 19 and 20, where I could not place the dynamic marks automatically. In the XML-Code the dynamic marks were located right at the beginning of the measure and not after the referenced note (like in PMX). ActPreSam48.pdf is the result from running /ActPreSam48.pmx /with the latest PMXAB_2.71- (64Bit). I would be pleased if someone could run the PMX, look at the error messages and warnings, like "more than 14 hairpins" etc., and tell me whether they are relevant or not and could or should be avioided. Also what I do not understand, why the piece starts with an empty page. Any idea? Regards Dieter P.S.
