I guess you could write a small CAL script to insert random pitch bend events into your track with very small pitch-bend amounts.
 


I have tried several times to learn CAL (including today again) but I confess it is very complicated, mainly because of the lack of decent documentation (most of which are not working).
In addition to the absurd syntax, standard LISP.
For all the answers I received, I think one thing that was meant to be simple, becomes something really complicated.




Try this...

;
; Insert random pitchbends

(do
    (forEachEvent
        (if (== Event.Kind NOTE)
            (do
                (insert Event.Time Event.Chan WHEEL (random -25 25))
          )
      )
  )
)



 
If the effect itsn't subtle enough, increase the -25 .. 25 range to something larger.

One day when you're bored create an hour of you diddling the pitch bend wheel with small amounts of random pitch bend, and record it. Put it in the browser. Drag it out when you need it, and use different sections each time.




At first I was going to suggest this myself, but to get the effect the OP wants I guess the pitch bend changes need to be one per note - i.e. not changing throughout the note playing. I maybe wrong tho... in which case this is a perfect suggestion.
