This is a little bit interesting, but you also want the slow glissando and vibrato, and I'm not sure how you could handle that, without some sort of "fix me" input to tell it when to let the natural pitch through. -- http://www.piclist.com PIC/SX FAQ & list archive View/change your membership options at http://mailman.mit.edu/mailman/listinfo/piclist
