Glissando

A rapid slide through a series of consecutive tones in a scale like passage. On an E-mu Sytems Emulator III arpeggiator for example, when two notes are played with glissando on, every note in between the two notes will be played in a sequential order. Similar to portamento except that the pitch changes in semitone steps.
