Humanity seems well capable of going to hell without MY helping it get there faster!
On the whole, although they don't quite do the same mono behavior, I honestly prefer many of the normal saxes over the SN sax. Yamaha still rules, in this category.
But at least Roland are in the game. The SN guitars are to die for, and that xylophone patch (you tried using the mod bender with it?) is the best ever (now I want marimba, barafon and steel drums that do the same!), and the pianos and Rhodes are very nice.
I think the main problem with the gliss behavior is, it seems to be designed for a keyboard with a pitch WHEEL, not the bend lever. The scaling seems to abrupt. It might be possible to get this adjusted in an update, but who KNOWS what Roland are up to these days..? It can't be a comfortable feeling, working for Roland EU these days!
