the semitone trill is accomplished with pitch bend info,
so the synth envelope isn't triggered.
whole tone trills trigger on every note of the trill

It couldn't be a total hard bypass, there's no bypass switch.
I'll give it a whirl tommorow tho',
to see how it sounds.

the other harmonics, throws most pitch tracking algorithms
into confusion, but the G2M can't be fooled by it.

I'll compare it to the G50 mono socket tomorrow too, but I don't have
a hex p/u on a guitar at the moment.
