I use the A116 is a "normal" Fuzz-Box with extended parameters. So my 
three main usages are:

The boring old TB303-Fuzzbox-thing:
VCO-> envelope modulated VCF with lot of resonance -> A116 -> VCA ....

Polyphonic sources->A116, -> produce guitar fuzz like sounds.

Dynamic Guitar distortion:
Guitar -> Envelopefollower -> A116


The voltage control I use less with LFOs or envelopes, but most times 
from CVs which are derived from Midi controls from a MIDI sequencer (in 
the sense of a mixer automation): Instead making a simple crescendo I 
increase the distortion.
Velocity control of the distortion can be nice too (see also the guitar 
example).
