MXEditMP: download from here
Simple application that reads in a MusicXML file and outputs selected bars in same format.
Example: MXEditMP.exe -f mySoulDiesInCompany.xml -l log.txt -o tmpa.xml 1 1 - takes the file mySoulDiesInCompany.xml , removes all the bars save the first and outputs the result to the file tmpa.xml. The log file log.txt logs all errors and progress.
Usage: Edits Bars from an Music XML FIle
MXeditMP [-h|-help] [-v|-version] [-f <filename>] [-o <filename>] <startbar> <endbar>
-h or -help Display this help file
-v or -version Display the software revision number
-o Write resultant Music XML file to a filename.
The default is to output the file to standard IO
-f Read Music XML file filename.
The default is to read the file from standard IO
-l Write error logs to filename.
The default is to write to standard IO
MXeditMP [-h|-help] [-v|-version] [-f <filename>] [-o <filename>] <startbar> <endbar>
-h or -help Display this help file
-v or -version Display the software revision number
-o Write resultant Music XML file to a filename.
The default is to output the file to standard IO
-f Read Music XML file filename.
The default is to read the file from standard IO
-l Write error logs to filename.
The default is to write to standard IO
Convert Format: download from here
Uses Recordare's xslt files for converting between the two MusicXML file formats (partwise and timewise). The program can covert in either direction i.e. timewise to partwise or partwise to timewise. Requesting that a file be converted to the same format i.e. timewise to timewise , then the format is not changed.
Note that you need to download the latest versions of the xml style sheets from the Recordare site and place them into the same directory as convert_format.exe. These can be found by following the links below.
Create file PartwiseToTimeWise.xslt from here
Create file TimeWiseToPartWise.xslt from here
Example: convert_format.exe -partwise -f summertimeedited.xml -o tmp_pw.xml -l log.txt - takes the file summertimeedited.xml, and converts it to partwise format , the output is sent to the file tmp_pw.xml. The log file log.txt logs all errors and progress.

Rip Part: download from here
RipPart.exe takes a MusicXML file and removes all parts except those requested. The program accepts types of identifier for the part, either index (0 ,1...) or partname as defined in the file.
Example: rip_part.exe -l logfile.txt -f multipart.xml -n P1 P5 -o Voicepart.xml - takes the file multipart.xml , and outputs parts P1 and P5 only. The output is sent to the file Voicepart.xml The log file log.txt logs all errors and progress.
