True, any synth plugin is going to translate MIDI to some internal form.
But do you know what this internal form is?  Is it really going to be
float pitch values?  Maybe it's something altogether different.

I certainly couldn't say in general, and I've even seen the source code
for soft-synths that emulate hardware.
