I'm not an M-Tx user and did not succeed in getting any part of the (incomplete) example to compile.
But in PMX, you can start out with a block of input in the meter of the pickup bar, specified for example as 1 4 3 4 (so the "3/4" prints out as the meter), then start a brand new input block with a "blind" meter change m3/4/0/0 and do the rest of the piece. I suspect something similar might work in M-Tx. I'm surprised though that your pickup worked at all without explicitly telling M-Tx about it. It would be a lot easier to diagnose your problem if you included an excerpt of the source that would compile. --Don Simons >-----Original Message----- >From: TeX-Music [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Wojtek >Chemijewski >Sent: Tuesday, January 28, 2014 2:22 PM >To: [email protected] >Subject: [Tex-music] M-Tx, first bar shorter and then a repeat > >Hello Experts, > >I am using M-Tx and trying to typeset a song, which starts from a >shorter bar and then goes all the way 3/4, like this: > >U: d C F >f8 g | a4 a8 a g f | ...
