What is the meaning of 1 Corinthians 14:7?

* The two F.O.G. Bibles & Commentary below are currently a work in progress.

Even in the case of lifeless instruments, such as the flute or harp, how will anyone recognize the tune they are playing unless the notes are distinct?

Berean Standard Bible (BSB)

Even things without life, giving a voice, whether pipe or harp, if they didn’t give a distinction in the sounds, how would it be known what is piped or harped?

World English Bible (WEB)

And even{G3676} things without life{G895} giving{G1325}{(G5723)} sound{G5456}, whether{G1535} pipe{G836} or{G1535} harp{G2788}, except{G3362} they give{G1325}{(G5632)} a distinction{G1293} in the sounds{G5353}, how{G4459} shall it be known{G1097}{(G5701)} what is piped{G832}{(G5746)} or{G2228} harped{G2789}{(G5746)}?

Strong's King James

(7) Likewise lifeless things whether flute or harp producing sound, if they don't give a distinction in the tones how will it be known what is played on the flute or on the harp?

The F.O.G*

[7] Think about musical instruments—a flute, a harp. If they don't play distinct notes, how will anyone recognize the melody? It's just noise without meaning.

The F.O.G Paraphrase

yet the things without life giving sound—whether pipe or harp—if a difference in the sounds they may not give, how shall be known that which is piped or that which is harped?
