Lets take this sweep here:

| |-----6-----| |-----6-----|
| S S S S S S S S S S S S S S
|-12p9---------9-12p9---------9-
|------10---10--------10---10---
|---------9--------------9-------
|--------------------------------
|--------------------------------
|--------------------------------

How would you play the 12p9 to 10? Would you make the first part an upstroke pickup and sweep the rest up? Because you cannot just go from high-e to B when sweeping like you would the rest of the strings because you have to play 2 notes unlike the rest where you play 1 note. And wouldn't you want all the notes to have equal counts as so the 12p9 arent double speed to the rest of the sweep?


Sorry if I didn't make myself clear but this has been bothering me.
