Re: [Tex-music] Half a tone transposition

[Don Simons]

In PMX, this is very easy. If the original score in E flat is

===
1 1 4 4 4 4 0 -3
1 1 20 0

t
.\
Ar
e44 f g a b c d e /
===

then to transpose to E major you only need to add one line:

===
1 1 4 4 4 4 0 -3
1 1 20 0

t
.\
Ar
K-0+4
e44 f g a b c d e /
===

The transposition is handled internally in PMX and does not use \transpose,
regardless of how far you are transposing.

Fantastic.  It seems to be what I want.  I'll be testing your so simple
solution (I should have thought of it!) all over the piece I want to transpose,
not only on this simple example, and see if it's all right.  Thanks...!

Cheers,

Rodolfo

Is this what you want?

\input musixtex
\relativeaccid%
\generalsignature{-3}%
\startpiece%
\Notes\qu e\qu f\qu g\qu h\qu i%
\en
\generalsignature{4}\changecontext%
\Notes
\qu e\qu f\qu g\qu h\qu i%
\en
\Endpiece
\vfill\eject\end

Do you have a short example ?



Very simple:


\input musixtex

\relativeaccid%
\generalsignature{-3}%
\startpiece
\Notes
\qu e\qu f\qu g\qu h\qu i%
\en
\Endpiece

\relativeaccid%
\transpose+1%
\generalsignature{4}%
\startpiece
\Notes
\qu e\qu f\qu g\qu h\qu i%
\en
\Endpiece

\vfill\eject\end


You can read in the second piece the sequence: f, g, a, b, c, whereas it 
should
be: e, sharp f, sharp g, a, b.  Is it possible, and how, to do what I'm 
looking
for...?  I.e., transpose the piece of only half a tone up, from e flat major 
to

e major?

Thanks,

Cheers,

Rodolfo

Do you have a short example ?
