Textura

red type on title page, red text, red initials, red staff lines, [other]

Some notes are printed red for occasions of great solemnity. Where red notes occur, the line is necessarily broken to accommodate the note, which was printed at the same time as the line. Two sets of initials: Uncials printed along with the staves in red, for which room is left; and red decorated textura initials, printed on top of the staves. Both kinds of initials are aligned along the x-axis with the text underlay. Two columns, 39-40 lines, 22 lines.

Hufnagel notation

Full-length system: 155 x 16.5 mm, virga 8 mm
Height of virga: 7.6 mm.

The prefaces contain extra notes printed in red, for occasions of particular solemnity. C-clefs (like a 3) set in the left border. Upper-f clefs also found (e.g. in Kyries).
