Massive Morphing

I spent a lot of quality time with Reaktor over the weekend.

I had not previously explored the possibilities of its Snapshot-Morph feature (Snapshots are patches in Reaktor-parlance). You can specify two endpoint snapshots, and assign a midi-cc to morph between them — similar to the scene morph on the Yamaha An1x (and many others, presumably. I just happen to have this synth).

Anyway, applying this process to normal synths provides the expected results: radically shifting timbres and crap like that.

Applying it to something like a drum machine creates some warped, mutating grooves. Behold system presets of the drum machine Massive, being so morphed:
