Is there a machine designed specifically for making uppers and downers?

At the mo I use synths to make my own uppers and downers (not just white noise sweeps of course) but the synths I have are not ideally suited to this task.
One particular issue I have is when automating pitch over the duration of an event, you get the dreaded audible stepping rather than a nice smooth rise.
Is there something designed specifically with this task in mind?
I tend to avoid sample based fx packs aimed at this space as there is not enough control and often I wan't a particular tailored noise that I have imagined in my head. |

| I usually take a long white noise sample and do all the modulation with effects, automated in my sequencer. |

i find massive very good for this - with all the modulation options etc.
normally just assign pitch to an envelope. |

| portamento would get rid of those steps. Then draw the notes rather than automation. |

| Rich have you tried increasing the resolution of the pitchbend data? |

| Would using an envelope on the pitch (instead of pitchbend) get rid of the stepping i wonder?? |

forget about what I said before is definitely steppin, didn't do enough testing before posting the stepping is obvious in a higher octave
in Absynth there is a 'lag' control next to the pitch bend amount which smooths it out, if that helps any |
