so...i bought 10 of these bad boys for the colorsound vocalizer build me and dino did...

what the hell else are they good for?

don't really care to build a dynacomp, which seems to be the prevalent use for these.

anything sick/twisted that i can do with 'em?

does anybody NEED one?

enquiring minds (well, mind) wants to know!!!

They are functionally the same as an LM13700, so anything you can find that uses one of those, you could also build with CA3080s.
e.g., Rick's causality phaser.

CA3080 are a little different to LM13700, no buffer, and iabc is one diode drop as opposed to two for the LM.

....also good for voltage controlled filters. and maybe a ring mod type circuit too. Or I'd take some if you're selling.

Well, yeah, if you want to go that far then the package has 8 pins versus 14, but that wasn't really my point... The actual OTA is functionally identical- no one cares about one diode drop.
