The problem lies in getting a number of notes that is divisible by 4, and can be phrased in a suitable way. I mean, play a 5 string sweep in an A minor like shape. The way I do it, I get 12 notes. Sure, I could play those 12 notes as 16th notes, but then I end up one beat short of a bar of 4/4. So the question is (the way I interpreted it): How do you construct sweeps that function well as 16th notes in 4/4?
