It has to be an active component? Haven’t read that before, maybe I overlooked that.
Surely it doesn’t have to be a single component? Replacing a potentiometer with a single component does get tricky…

How do you define active component? Is a vactrol an active component?
If you define an active component as something that amplifies, i. e. uses one signal to control the amount of another signal, then both a servo pot and a vactrol are active components.
