RE: Suggestions for a Voltage controlled amplifier of Audio.

Analog Devices do a very nice range of audio mixer ICs, which will handle up to 8 stereo channels, all controlled by a SPI type bus.

Have a look at http://products.analog.com/products_html/list_gen_186_2_1.html

Hope it works for you, I kept geting an ODBC error, but that may well be my very tired windows installation.
