I swear by the A-132-3, for what it's worth. It lets you add velocity sensitivity if you use its two parts in serial. And if you don't need velocity sensitivity, it can temper anything unrelated, such as the intensity of some frequency modulation, for instance. I find it *much* more useful than having a single VCA of only one type, with CV inputs that are added together instead of multiplied. Really, I'd consider the A-132-3 the default or standard VCA unless you have a special requirement.

All the best,
