Not that I know of. It may be possible to expand \start stop 
combination to work with

\startcombination[3*4,2*1] but then you will have to count on your 
own.

Perhaps, you can define (untested)

\def\resetcombination{\stopcomination\startcombination} and then

\startcombination[3*4]
  ....
  ....
\resetcombination[2*1]
....
....
\stopcombination

The problem, if any, is with \tfx. This demonstrates it

\tfx Test $Test$

Perhaps a cleaner way to do this is

\switchtobodyfont[small] Test $Test$

I do not know why is this not equivalent to

\small Test $Test$
