If you really want that VCQ and aren't scared of a soldering iron,
3320-based VCF's are very easy to construct. Just follow the instructions
on the back of the box.. er.. the spec sheet...

I think VCQ is a nice option, but one not everybody will use. I agree with
Pauls observations about VCQ and c/v feedthrough. (in a pinch you can
create your own feedback loop from the VCF audio output through a VCA and
back into the VCF audio input)
