    David,

    I think it is a single issue, but because it happens at the music
    expression level, it can manifest itself in both engraving and
    midi "rendering". Essentially the articulate script introduces
    wrong musical content, that is not present at the input, under
    certain conditions (an hypothetical parallel to help categorize
    the issue would be if articulate always added a whole bar full of
    C#'s to the music - it would be a glich present in both midi and
    engraving output). In this case we are talking about adding extra
    time/pause/rests to the music when articulate processes a music
    expression where grace notes follow the use of multiple voices.
    Examples:

    http://lilybin.com/97o636/2 - Here you cannot see the glitch
    visually because the articulate output is not engraved, only used
    for midi output. But you can hear from the midi output that extra
    time has been added to the top staff after the grace note,
    resulting in that staff being out of sync with the staff below.

    http://lilybin.com/97o636/1 - Here you can see the glitch
    visually because I rendered the articulate output (I understand
    no one in their right mind would do this in a normal scenario,
    but I believe it is helpful here because we can visualize the
    extra time that has been added, confirming that this is not a
    midi rendering problem, but a problem with articulate script
    introducing wrong musical content not present at the input).

    (Because GNU's mailing lists archives aren't always easy to
    follow, an easy to follow thread archive with the previous
    discussion of this issue is available at
    
http://lilypond.1069038.n5.nabble.com/Articulate-script-plus-grace-notes-following-multiple-voices-results-in-timing-errors-td212650.html)

    Where does this manifest in regular use? Essentially in piano and
    orchestral scores, where use of multiple voices within a staff
    are common and grace notes are relatively common. Users with this
    use case relying on articulate to produce "better than bland"
    midi output will suffer from midi output with timing issues
    (essentially resulting in wrong playback with some staves being
    out of time with the rest of the music). The workaround as of now
    requires rewriting the music to avoid having grace notes
    following multiple voices (in my case this forced me to have
    different musical expressions for engraving and for midi output).

    Best regards,
    David Baptista

    Thank you for that.

    I'll take what you have written here and us it to create a new
    tracker for this and send an email to the list with the URL/number.

    Jamess

        No it does not look like anything was added to the tracker
        based on the
        date of this thread.

        However I am having a struggle understanding what the
        'concise' request
        is here, to be able to add something - i.e. is it an output /
        engraving
        issue or an 'audio' / midi-specific issue or both (in which
        case we
        probably need two trackers).

        Thank you.

        James
