Fortunately my a111 and a105 were not being used in my current patch so I've been able to set up something that hopefully shows you a few examples of what the malgorithm can do on this type of material. It's at:

http://stashbox.org/38432/malgorithm.zip

There's an explanation in the zip file, but basically I just swept a control for each example so that you can hear the range of possibility in each case. I'm very busy at the moment (and my single a119 is currently gainfully otherwise employed anyway) so I don't know if I'm going to have a chance to do some of the other examples. I *might* have time tomorrow but since I don't have an 808 I may have to use samples or one of the VST emulations floating about. No promises either way.

> (that it can distort to complete uglyness is clear from the other examples).

One person's nightmare is another's fantasy :) I totally love the noises this thing makes - I don't consider that distortion ugly at all...
