Ok, I see. I first thought you are referring to this solution since there might 
be some kind of exotic hardware organ or something that sends these messages 
already. Well under that circumstance I would definitely not use the MIDI 
channel bits for that.

In the end, you can also invent a new MIDI message like "fine tune only the 
next note on this part" (i.e. by picking an arbitrary NRPN or a short SysEx).

Latency was an issue with the old classic DIN MIDI jacks, but it is definitely 
not with todays USB and Bluetooth LE based MIDI connections anymore.

Existing controllers like the previously mentioned "Seaboard" use the 
described method of using pitchbend and MIDI channel distribution simply 
because it would work with most sound expanders and plugins out of the box.
