"Normal" sound formats, wav, mp3 and others, record sound directly. Midi is a music sheet: it says which instruments are playing which notes.
As a result, different sound cards will play the same midi file in different ways. Also has a result, converting a sound file to a midi file requires analyzing the sound to identify which instruments are being played, and what note they're playing. This, of course, is a complicated and error-prone process.
