Re: audio experiment - how do you perceive this?
Do not read this post if you haven't voted yet. It is going to get into, not quite technical, but possible theories.
From an audio standpoint, it sounds like file 2 is playing the note at the same pitch. From a technical standpoint though, pianos and timpanis have different octave levels, so file 1 could also be, technically, correct. To me, file 1 is playing the exact note value from a midi data point of view, whilst file 2, from an audio standpoint, is playing what sounds like the same note. Naturally, for this to work, the piano is played at a higher octave than the timpani.
However, what is interesting though, is what would define the "same" note. A person might either be looking for the sound of a note, or, the register of the instrument. As it stands, for a timpani to play a piano equivallent of a middle c, (not a lower c as this file emplies), the middle c would be at a timpani's higher limit. Actually, I don't even know if a timpani can even reach a middle C, truth be told, which would explain why these two files are using lower versions of C.
