Every bar must have a meter, but you can change the meter at any time, and if you don't want a time signature you can use a blind meter change, e.g.,
a44 b c d / m17/16/0/0 d1 e4 f g a / You may need to manually control the beaming (or non-beaming) in such situations. --Don Simons -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Jill-Jênn VIE Sent: Wednesday, October 10, 2007 10:21 PM To: Werner Icking Music Archive Subject: Re: [TeX-Music] Free bar Thank you ! Is it possible to have one free bar, which means a bar without any meter? I wanted to put my notes as ornaments, but they are too many. Thanks by advance.

I am aware that according to the modern convention all accidentals are supposed to be cancelled at every bar line. However, as a harpsichord player, I happen to find this convention very counterintuitive when a note is repeated across a bar line and the one before the bar line has either an inherited or explicit accidental. Furthermore, according to the Baroque convention, the repeated note after the bar line would inherit the accidental. Therefore, as a silent protest, I've made the MIDI generation in PMX adhere to the Baroque convention in this instance. If you want the midi file to silently cancel the accidental, then put a midi-only accidental on the note after the bar line, e.g., af a a a | ani a a a / --Don Simons -- Jill-Jênn http://mickay.jill.free.fr/score/
