Can you send along a sample of your encoding? We can help you better if we can see what you did.

Especially Martha's hint to the Verovio-website was very useful (although I don't understand completely "coloration including augmentation/imperfectino", but that's Ok for the moment). A thing that confuses me a lot is the displaying of the Verovio-MEI-viewer: I have the impression, that it doesn't align the corect "beats" vertically; I already recognized this when rendering my attempt. Is that right? How can I fix that?
