Hello Hermann,
I'm glad to hear that my package can help your project! 
Your valuable report led me to improve musixuad package.
Thank you again!

  (1) 
  \input musixuad.tex
  \input musixlyr.tex
  
  will be OK,
 
 Hiroaki, thank you very much. I placed musixuad.tex into mtx.tex before 
 musixlyr.tex and indeed this is the solution! Lyrics are placed into the 
 correct positions and I am sure this be so up to the end of my project.
 
 Again many thanks for your help

 Hi all,

 I've found a suspicious code on this problem.

 musixlyr.tex(2.1c) redefine a internal command '[EMAIL PROTECTED]'
 at line 649.

 musixuad also redefine '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' to make make slurs
 independent from \maxinstruments at line 230.

 So, please check your tex file:

 Many thanks to Hermann, I should put self-exclusion code

  Don, I changed nm=12 to nm=13 and compiled pmxab.f and you are quite
  right that this didn´ t work. Then I included musixuad as Hiroaki
  suggested but as I am using tetex and not etex musixuad excludes itself.

 the terms 'tetex' and 'etex' are not immediately comparable. 'tetex'
 denotes a complete port of a full TeX system, while 'tex' and 'etex' are
 the names of base TeX interpreters (etex: extended tex). Actually tetex
 comes with etex.

 So maybe you should after all give the combination of a patched pmx,
 etex and musixuad a chance

Christian, I did so and at the first glance it works as it should but in some 
places a shift of the lyric line over several bars occurs. After returning  
to 12 voices without the stave for the b.c these shifts disappear only if 
musixuad is not included.

But without the 13. stave for the b.c. there is another problem : The last 
lyric line is partly positioned into the last stave. A Space ... in the 
preamble has no effect because the last stave is the end of the page. 

So I am a little frustated using M-Tx in this project. 

Hermann

I want to typeset a psalm with 12 voices and b.c. using M-Tx. Although
M-Tx
allows 15 voices and staves PMX has the limit of 12 voices.

Is there any possibility to overcome this limit?

In cases like this where the MusiXTeX software utilities are driven 
beyond their limits I would go for alternative engraving software.

 From the open source world one candidate is GNU Lilypond which is 
really powerful, the user interface is rather far from the 'flow' of 
music, at least in my experience.

For a task like this one another open source utility could be PMW 
(http://www.quercite.com/pmw.html). Like Lilypond each staff is coded in 
its own section of the source file. But the coding syntax is simpler 
than that of Lilypond.

Personally I'm using the non-free (though inexpensive) software MUP 
which, like M-Tx and PMX, keeps the engraving code of all staves together.

For all 3 software packages mentioned above there is carefully prepared 
documentation available

Re: [TeX-Music] M-Tx and PMX-Limitation

2008-03-19 Thread Hiroaki MORIMOTO
For Mega version etc., please take a look at musixuad.tex line 63-68.

For example, changing 
'[EMAIL PROTECTED]' into ' [EMAIL PROTECTED]' 
will allow 100 instruments.

Note! musixuad conflicts with PS slur type K (Don says it current PMX 
standard) by Stanislav Kneifl and MusiXExp by Moriwaki Michio.
Now e-TeX is available, thus I think musixps and musixexp should be 
modified not to apply basic registers to other purposes.
(Of course, it requires cooperation.)

But I sometimes think the method of current musixuad is not the best 
solution, because it allocates too many registers...
