I think any vactrol will work in principle. But the vactrol type and the matching of the vactrols may affect the sound result
(frequency response/range, VCA amplification range). We select the two vactrols used in each A-101-2 module: same LDR resistance at
a certain LED current (about in the middle of the frequency range). That's not perfect because the response curve may still deviate
from this matching point but it's better than using totally unmatched vactrols.
