If you have a plugin that greatly benefits from morphing then build it
into the paramters, by exposing an A set, a B set and a morph control -
just like you do in a vector synth (X,Y and A, B, C and D sets).
This doesnt require the plugin to update the hosts parameter values and it
allows you finer control over how the morph happens, better reflection of
the state of the plugin in the UI and it works well with host automation.
