I use the AND gates with the digital outs of the A-149-2 and another
pulse generator to create very intermittent gate events.

If you use the XOR gates with a random pulse (whose trigger rate is
synchronized to the clock) and a clock at audio rates (use a frequency
divider for good results), you can achieve really good pitched noise
effects, similar to Atari 2600's sound generation scheme. The 166 has
a maximum input frequency of a few khz, but it does sound really cool
when it starts aliasing.
http://musictechnology.northwestern.edu/~meatlog/digital1.mp3 is a
recording of such a patch. The other gate outputs are mixed in for
thickening (with the AND output out of phase), and the whole thing's
run through the BBD.
