I sent this message a few days ago. There was no response. I've had a
few problems lately so maybe it got lost. I appologise for sending again
if it did get through before and no-one wants to know.

I have a problem with MIDI instructions interfering with voltas:-

I interpret the MIDI section of the PMX manual to imply a PMX file of
format:-

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Headings
It...i....                    //set up MIDI output,timing,instruments
MR1                           //record the MIDI output
Main body of music as pmx
M                             //stop recording the MIDI output
V1 First time bars as pmx
MP1                           //playback the recorded MIDI output
Rr V2b Second time bars as pmx
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

This gives me a correct MIDI file but pmx falls over in the tex phase
with:-

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Runaway argument?
{\bigfont \kern -30pt \pnotes {2.00}\hu {'C}&\islurd {11}a\qu a\sk \tslur
\ETC.
! Forbidden control sequence found while scanning use of \C@ch.
<inserted text>
                \par
<to be read again>
                   \bye
l.466 \bye

?
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

If, however, I comment out the lines related to MIDI, it is processed
correctly by pmx but, of course, no MIDI file. So I can only achieve my
objectives (MIDI and printable music) by running pmx twice.
What am I doing wrong, please?
