This doesn't really make much sense, does it?
In general, you can't know the phase of the signal some arbitrary  
MIDI unit will generate in response to your note-on message, as you  
can't know, for all possible MIDI units, how the actual signal will  
be generated. Or when.

Also, for real musical instruments, the phase of the sources is  
arbitrary anyway - that's a big part of why a cello section doesn't  
sound like 1 cello fed through a chorus box...

And lastly, the timing accuracy in MIDI is Really (Really) Bad  
anyway, particularly if you have to chain a couple of units, or use a  
merge box, or anything that might resample your original data  
stream... The serial clocks just aren't fast enough for accurate timing.

I just wouldn't worry about it. Really.
