I'll try that! Thanks for the advice!

Hi!

Thanks for the tips, I haven't had any time with my MD for a while now so I 
haven't had any chance to try any of the tips I've gotten... But I'll try it 
and report back to the list when I do. Altho if I have to go the portamento 
on/off way I'm smoked since AFAI can remember, the MCV4 does not have 
portamento -but I hope I have a bad memory :)

Thanks a lot anyway!
