UGO has released Ironhead, a morphing percussion synth, which comes bundled with Tunguska, a morphing multi effect.
Ironhead’s morphing allows you morph, or switch, between two different control states for each instrument. It aslo has a variance feature which allows you to set an adjustable degree of random variation in the sound.

Tunguska’s two key components are its granulator and filter, both of which can be morphed between two states, allowing you to bring additional movement to your grooves.
