SnappySnap: Plugin Snapshot Morphing

Seemingly inspired by the Neuzeit DROP (we have one in for review) SnappySnap is a VST Host for storing plugins and their parameters, while allowing you to transition between snapshots. Really cool idea implemented by Neuzeit, now recreated in software form with a wealth of possibilities - with meta presets and a randomizer. Info for SnappySnap is below, after a video on the DROP, in case you haven't seen it...
 

SnappySnap adds snapshots, morphing, meta presets and a randomizer to any VST3 plugin in Ableton, Bitwig or any DAW. Full developer walk-through inside._

I'm Iurii (Inkie), and In this video, I'll walk you through every feature and show you exactly how it works.

What is SnappySnap?
A VST3/AU plugin that hosts other plugins and gives you unique control over all their parameters. Manage presets and snapshots, it gives new ways to explore sound design. Lowering friction with your live setup.
