    F/X. A low pass filter would be a start.

    • reduce attack sound
    • play through vocoder
    • add phaser, flanger, delay with high feedback and wet amount

    ring modulador and comb filter are your friends but basically what No Avenger said, reducing the attack almost always work

    There are FX versions of some virtual synthesizers. For example Rob Papen - Predator:

    Predator includes powerful features such as Preset Morphing, Intelligent Preset Variation, MIDI and Synth Controllable FX, Unison Detune, Chord Memory and a versatile Arpeggiator. Preset banks include: Hip Hop (NY, Club, DirtySouth and Gfunk), Jump, hardcore, breakbeat, various trance styles, DnB banks and more...
    It also includes PredatorFX, allowing you to use the filters, modulations, effects and vocoder as an FX plug-in within your music host.

    Resynthesis is what you're looking for.
