Greetings:

I have been away from this all too long, and find that I have forgotten 
more than I knew.. :-)

After looking around in the M-Tx .50A manual, I can't seem to find the 
answer to this one.

When starting a piece, how do I get a starting point more than one octave 
away without offending PMX?

For example, this input:

[...snip...]
PSPEC: Voices PS,PA PB; Group; Clefs G F
Style:  SATB PSPEC

S: r8 | rp |
A: r8 | rp |
T: r8 | rp |
B: r8 | rp |
PS: [ a1+ b ] | ( c2  c4 ) r8 (l [ a1 b ] |
PA: r8    | (u c++1r a e c  a4 ) (u c1r+ a e c ) a4 |
                 ^^ - This is the offending construct
PB: r8  C0  | a4d e1+ g ( a4 a8 ) e1 g |

[...snip...]

...causes PMX to produce the following warning:


*********WARNING*********


ERROR in line 31, bar 1: Before version 1.2, +/- was ignored if octave was
        v
r8 | c15+r su a1 e1 c1 a4 s c1r+ su a1 e1 c1 s a4 | //                      
  
        ^
explicitly specified.  May need to edit old editions

 Bar0  Bar 1   [...snip...]

Otherwise, it runs to completion okay, but it raises my curiosity as to how 
to tell M-Tx to start higher or lower than the expected first octave of a 
range.

Any hints will be appreciated... I suspect that this is something simple 
that I have just overlooked.
