    Hi, the B flat clarinet in VSL's 'Woodwinds I' collection plays fast glissandos from a semitone to an octave in range in an upward or downward direction. With VSL's other woodwind instruments you can use 'fast performance legato' patches to get a glissando-like effect. (In real life I believe the clarinet is the only orchestral woodwind instrument that plays true glissandi, i.e. unbroken pitch slides, but I may be wrong.)
