In setting music from J.S. Bach, using PMX, I had the following difficulties:
1) When two voices are in one system, a full pause rest is suppressed.
(already mentioned in a previous email).
2) I found no way to get a grace note not in the pitch range of the previous
note into the correct place.
3) PMX did not accept 3/64th triplet (occurs in BWV1052 II).
4) Neither it was possible to set 1/128th notes (occurs in BWV1052 II).
There are probably many experienced withards that know a better way
than editing the .tex-file and/or the final printout.
(For the 1/128th notes there is little hope because it is not
implemented in MusiXTeX.)
I appreciate all helpful comments!
Christof.
