I have a friend that has used a plugin like this (on apple digital

exact and singing a bit out of tune). I've also heard it
used as an effect on middle-eastern violins (that are usually played
portomento) by setting the tolerance very high. Perhaps this is one of the
situations that one would otherwise turn to a synthesizer insead of the
real thing when they want this sound.
I think that any program suporting advanced effects should have something
like this in it's toolbox.

Next up... a plugin that plays your instrument
for you. Why deal
with the tedious hassle of having to tune your instrument or actually
learn how to play it?Can't sing... not a problem!I can see Micro$oft
coming out with something like that ;-)
Sorry, but this goes against the grain for me. If I'm going to suck
live I'd damn well better suck digitally so I'll know better than to
play live ;-)
