Dieter, I have a book Beyond MIDI: The Handbook of Musical Codes (MIT Press, 1997) that was a gift from Werner Icking, that I have often referred to. (It also has a section about MusiXTeX that was contributed by Werner). But a little googling should get all the info you need. I didnt do anything especially tricky with the MIDI. The really tricky part was the bookkeeping and coding to get FORTRAN to make the binary file.

For proof reading the present capability is perfect. Could you tell me a source, where I can learn more about the Midi-Format? Regards, Dieter Am 19.05.2011 16:57, schrieb Don Simons: Yes, it would be very difficult. Doing just one tie alone was difficult, because several separate notes in the input stream map into only one midi event. If anyone else cares to dig into the FORTRAN source code, be my guest! But please keep in mind that the midi capability was only intended to be for proof-listening, not for making publication quality sound files. --Don From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of DIETER glötzel Sent: Thursday, May 19, 2011 7:37 AM To: Werner Icking Music Archive Subject: Re: [Tex-music] Ties and Volta / multiple ties in midi Hi Don, yes, I am using windoze. And yes Olivier was right. At first I was missing the last empty line, and in this case the Vb2 was not processed. May I put a completely different question? Would it be very difficult to make the midi generator of PMX aware of multiple ties within a chord? Thanks to everybody! Dieter Am 19.05.2011 16:15, schrieb Don Simons: Sorry, guys, I must be in a parallel universe, because my setup definitely does NOT require an empty line at the end of the PMX input file to make the second volta appear. When you end a piece with a volta open, as Olivier did in his original example, PMX is supposed to automagically supply a Vb, although I notice that I forgot to mention this in the manual :-( I have no idea why Dieter didnt get the second volta. Could it have to do with system-dependent line-ending and file-ending hidden characters? But I think Dieter is using Windoze as am I. Dieter, please try the attached file and report back. Anyone else care to comment? --Don From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of DIETER glötzel Sent: Thursday, May 19, 2011 5:26 AM To: Werner Icking Music Archive Subject: Re: [Tex-music] Ties and Volta Hi Olivier, I am sorry for this beginner's mistake.
