> For now I like to know how to make a rest for example over 78 bars.
For single voice/single line music you may use "rm78", multiple rests.
Otherwise you may use "rp rp rp rp rp ... rp", full pause rest, but only
in chunks up to 15 bars. PMX's macro feature allows short-writing:
MR1 rp rp rp ... rp M /
MP1 /
MP1 /
...
I don't know whether M-Tx supports multiple rests and PMX-Macros.
