I've never quite been able to get that "cougar roar" palm gliss out
of a clone. (I'm referring to that sound that starts fairly high on
the keyboard, and goes up then down, kind of a "rowwwrrrr")

I'm not sure whether this is BECAUSE of the clone, or because of me.
(I'm thinking it's because of me...) I don't have ready access to a
real hammond, and I was wondering if anyone a) knows what I'm
talking about and b) has any percussion/drawbar settings or
technique tips that might let me get that sound.

Has anyone else noticed some gliss things just don't fly on synth
keys?

It might be my imagination,
