Trumpet Notes Across Octaves #582
Description
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
With the introduction of the trumpet sound, it provides a whole 8 octaves of continuous notes. currently the application treats each stage of oxidation as its own instrument, only using the 2 octaves assigned to it.
Describe the enhancement you'd like
it would be nice if the application could go between the oxidation stages automatically. if you start with notes on the weathered copper, once it goes above the notes for that it switches to exposed copper. and on the opposite side once it gets too low it swaps to oxidized copper. this would make it easier to use the full range of the trumpet sound by only having one "instrument" in the application that does the transitioning for you.

ok so i'm kinda dense and didn't realize they only span 3 octaves... with the normal and exposed sharing a scale, and the weathered and oxidized sharing an octave shifted up on from the first 2. so it doesn't provide as much range, but might still be a good feature to explore. maybe adding the option to chain some similar sounds together that are next to each others ranges (ex Harp and Bass, or the xylophones)

Thank you for your suggestion!
This will likely not be implemented in v3.x as it requires fundamental changes to how we deal with instruments, but I'll label it for our upcoming v4.0 rework.
