Ok, so here's the question:

Is a VCA usable for CV as well as audio? I sort of assumed it worked
for CV... here's where it gets weird

If a VCA can be used for CV, then doesn't that mean I can use it for,
well, just about anything? Like I could run a small electric lamp
through the VCA, and the signal would adjust the brightness? Or
adjust the speed of a fan?

Hmm. If that's the case, what kind of power would be safe to run
through it? =]
