 I thought that JFETs had problems w/ control signal feedthru, making 
 them undesireable for use where you're attenuating an audio 
 signal, such as resonance.  Maybe someone could clarify this?
 
 I would dearly love to see a comparison between or discussion about
different types of VCAs - JFETs, OTAs, dedicated VCA circuits, motorized
Potentiometers, DAC R2R ladders, etc. comparing cost/complexity to
performance.
