The SMUS to Music-X converter has at least one major bug: it appears to handle time signature changes incorrectly. I entered a piece of music into DMCS which changed from 4/4 to 6/4 (I also tried using 2/4 and 4/4). The converted file loaded, but was scattered throughout. (It was a forty measure song, but parts were at measure 73, measure 39, etc.) The problem appears to be time signature changes. It is a more significant bug than it seems because DMCS forces you to have the proper number of notes per measure. So you can't just set the time sig to 4/4 and ignore the problem. Yes, I do have th latest version. (1.04) I can send a sample file if you'd like.
