So my buddy makes this daw controlled hardware compressors

That looks quite handy, great concept!

Price looks to be about £900, which isn't too bad considering the digital control aspect which as far as I know has never been done before? I guess you need a seperate USB port for each one? If they did their own say 6 space rack that could control all 6 with one cable that would be a total winner!

Still too expensive for my blood though unfortunately.
 
IMO digitally controlled analog hardware is going to come up in a big way soon. This looks like a cool design!
