Hello Kieren I may have jumped the gun a bit (again). It doesn't matter that Midi output is changed (for debugging) so long as the bar lengths are unchanged.
I haven't seen the e2*1/2 syntax before. Does that "mean" engrave a minim but reduce its value in the bar count to that of a crotchet. The Midi engine would creat a bar with an extra crotchet of silence? The second solution overcomes this and is much less complicated than a full staff of dymanics even if it is a bit cumbersome. Thanks again your suggestions were very clear and succinct unlike my ramblings.
