Why does the midi system have the widest range of frequencies

Answer 1

Question:
Why does the midi system have the widest range of frequencies

Answer:

Each of these instruments have a very wide range of notes because these are all treble instruments. Now, if you mean altogether, with a trumpet you can hit a very wide range of notes due to it having such a high octave, same with a violin, piano, clarinet, and organ. Kettle drums just have a very manipulable sound.
But remember it is a MIDI System, and you can adjust the frequency according to your desire; So, honestly, there is no straight answer for this, just how you desire the sound.

I could take an A4 note on a trumpet and stretch the sound waves out to sound like an A1 note just by bending it with a MIDI System. So, the possibilities are endless.

Hope this helps :D

P.S been playing the piano for 7 years so I use midi alot.

Answer 2

The Midi System has the widest range of frequencies because it doesn't care about the range of frequency of the actual instrument it is playing. it is a event oriented system.
