Which is utterly useless in a 1:1 channel:instrument configuration. Most of my MIDI hardware expects to listen on a single channel, as does most I've come across. My plugin/VST host doesn't know about this either, so I would need to assign 10 different MIDI channels and all 10 CCs every time I want to change instruments. And for those instruments without a per-note bend, I would need to create 10 instances as well.
