I need some help on this picking technique that one of my favorite guitarists Marty Friedman from Megadeth uses a lot in his solos.

he does it like u would in a sweep but i dont understand how you are supposed to do this(or any sweep) fast without making the notes ring together or without killing them with a mute when your using heavy distortion?
Any help would be nice
Thanx,

Check out this lesson on sweep picking.
http://www.cyberfret.com/techniques/sweep-picking/index.htm

One of the videos in that lesson shows a lick that is sweep picking only 2 strings.
