Maybe a more musical way to "humanize" would be to increase velocity
(by a small random amount) on the downbeat, and maybe decrease on
1/8th or 1/16th notes. Or an option to increase on the backbeats,
decrease elsewhere. Sort of like a step sequencer where you program
the delta (relative to the input) at each step instead of the absolute
value.
You'd need tempo information for any of that, I guess. Might be
easier when Jack MIDI is more widely available.
What about using pitch bend to slightly "detune" some notes? Might
make rolls sounds a little less mechanical...
