Re: [Tex-music] Metronomic indications in PMX

2015-10-23 Thread Bob Tennent
Can anyone suggest a suitable fix to the definition of
\metron?  It's currently

\def\metron#1#2{{\stemlength\f@ur\noteskip\t@n\p@ #1 1\ = #2}}

Or better examples in the manual, currently

\metron{\hup}{60}
\metron{\smallnotesize\lqu}{ca.~72}
\metron{\tinynotesize\lqu}{ca.~72}

Unfortunately I do not understand the definition of "\metron",
but why do we need a fix? I am happy with the "\nolyr" solution.

Then I'll just add a note to that section of musixdoc about
using \nolyr\metron ...  with musixlyr.

It does more than modify the font...it seems to be seeing the note symbol
from \metron as a note that uses up one of the syllables of the lyrics line.
This is not a PMX problem. We need to figure out a way to keep the lyrics
machinery from seeing the \metron note that way. I glanced at the TeX in
musixlyr but I'm afraid it's beyond my pay grade. I'm surprised this hasn't
come up before. Dirk?


musixlyr works by redefining the `\writ@note` macro.
The original macro is saved as `\orig@writ@note`.
All spacing notes sooner or later get to `\writ@note`.


I've frequently been using \metron in my modern editions of mensural 
notation early music sources for indicating tempo relations at 
transitions between tempus perfectum and tempus imperfectum. As example 
pdf scores and mtx sources at:


(http://imslp.org/wiki/Selva_di_varia_ricreatione_(Vecchi,_Orazio)

Here is how I circumvent the problem

\def\mymetron#1#2{\lyricsoff\smallnotesize\metron{#1}{#2 1}\lyricson}
