And for that you need a convincing market case, which may be the biggest
stumbling block. The modular-synthesizer-using market is not a huge one.
Subtract from that all of its users who are perfectly happy with MIDI-CV
converters and you're left with a fairly small number of prospective buyers.
Paul could certainly do the hardware engineering for such a device, and I
(or rather Audio Damage) could certainly do the AU/VST plug-in, but it's not
clear to me that we'd collectively sell enough of the package to even make
back the R&D costs. I'm basing that on my company's sales volumes for
plug-ins of much, much wider interest and some wild-ass guesses about Paul's
volumes. Just my $0.02 worth, of course.
