We describe the adaptation of a music notation editor to provide support for the produc-tion of a scholarly edition of the music treatises of Jo-hannes Tinctoris, with the aim of achieving publication-quality typesetting through a powerful and intuitive user interface, whilst permitting the preservation of information for use by the MIR community. The resulting modified ed-itor benefits from integration with our music information toolset, so that our existing unmodified tools can be used to investigate the new corpus. We illustrate this by demon-strating proof-of-concept pattern inference on this music, and describe our proposal for a fuller whole-corpus musi-cal investigation.
