Re: [TeX-Music] Changing the notes type font from ordinary notes to percussion notes within PMX

2010-08-17 Thread Philipp Neukel

Hello Dieter

I am very unfamiliar with PMX for I did it the hard way and learnt  
MusiXTeX only. It probably was a mistake.
But in MusiXTeX the most beautiful percussion notes (and I think the  
only way to do it) are done by using the extension musixper which has  
to be loaded at the very beginning of the document. Then you have a  
macro-set for perc.-notes (can be looked up in musixdoc). It should  
look like this:


\input musixtex
\input musixmad
\input musixtri
\input musixsty
\input musixbm
\input musixbbm
\input musixdbr
\input musixlyr
\input musixps
\input musixper% --- The important line for you
\input musixstr

Hello there

The problem is, that musixper adds a set of macros for different  
Perc notes. So there is no easy way to start or stop perc. You have  
to do it by hand and look them up in musixdoc. To write a command for  
one of them is actually rather easy, but then you could just use the  
original macro.

The first form only alters one note; the second is sticky. Perhaps  
one of
the TeXperts can concoct a macro \percnote{x} that will in effect  
precede
the next note command with x, where x could be any one OR two  
letters such

as dc, dh, do, x, ox, ro, tg, k.
