* '''Overcoming 128-Note Limitations'''. By combining multiple channels (up to 256 in MIDI 2.0), each with fully customized tuning for every note, composers can effectively bypass the traditional 128-note limitation of MIDI. This is especially beneficial for large-scale works requiring extensive microtonal ranges. | * '''Overcoming 128-Note Limitations'''.

High Precision: At around 1.49 × 10^-6 cents per step, the resolution far exceeds what the human ear can typically discern, making it suitable for studio recording, live performance, or any scenario requiring advanced microtonal control. | |||
Compatibility: Although the full 25 bits of fractional pitch may not be supported universally, MIDI 2.0 recommends supporting at least 9 bits, ensuring backward compatibility. | |||
Persistence of Tuning: Once a note’s Pitch 7.25 is set via Chanopif instructions, it remains in effect for subsequent notes unless overridden by other tuning data. | |||
Significance | Significance | ||
Standardized Microtonal Implementation: By adopting a consistent 402,653,184-EDO approach, Chanopif eliminates ambiguity over how fractional pitches are interpreted. | |||
Widespread Applications: It can be used to develop new instruments, experiment with alternative scales, or achieve hyper-accurate tuning in classical, jazz, electronic, or any musical style. | |||
Future-Proof: Chanopif is designed to scale with evolving MIDI technology, leveraging the expanded channel range (up to 256) and high-definition capabilities of MIDI 2.0. | |||
