Subject: [Tex-music] PMX error with unusual triplets in a file created
withxml2pmx
Hello all,
I have some ABC notation that can be converted to a score using abcm2ps
without problems. I wanted to try if PMX/MusiXTeX might produce a nicer
result via conversion with abc2xml and xml2pmx.
I converted the ABC notation to MusicXML with abc2xml. The resulting XML
can be opened with MuseScore and creates the expected score.
This means both the ABC file and the XML file seem to be correct for
their respective tools.
Then I used xml2pmx to convert the XML to PMX. With the resulting file,
PMX reports an error in a triplet.
You entered an invalid note-length value: 5
See below for details and source.
To reproduce the problem I reduced the input to 2 bars that contain
special triplet patterns, with an empty bar in between.
The first bar results in an error. The third seems to work.
Is this a problem with PMX or xml2pmx?
The music is a Polska (Swedish folk tune/dance) and irregular triplets
seem to be common.
If the list accept PDF attachments, the attached file shows the expected
score output.
Description in case the PDF attachment gets removed.
The music in in 3/4.
The first bar consists of a triplet of two beamed 1/8 notes and two 1/4
notes, followed by a triplet of 3 beamed 1/8 notes. The first triplet
seems to be problematic.
The third bar consists of a triplet of one 1/4 note, one dotted 1/4 note
and one 1/8 note, followed by two beamed notes dotted 1/8 + 1/16. This
seems to be OK.
Best regards,
Bodo
