I'd like to use samples from soundfonts microtonally:
normally this means cycling through MIDI channels, since each channel
can only have one pitchbend value.  Which means, for each note,
sending program change and pitch bend before noteon to the next
channel in the list.  I'm wondering what's the best way to load the
samples from the soundfont, but play them by cps instead of note
number.
Perhaps creating several FluidSynth engines, one for each instrument,
thus eliminating the need for program changes, while still having to
use pitch bend and different channels for each note?
Or loading the samples from the soundfont somehow to other sampling
opcodes, which can take cps instead of note number?
Or does some sample-playback opcode support both the soundfont format
and fractional MIDI note numbers?

Thanks.
