6 channel volume controller?

Can you let me know the models? Beside EMM Switchman MKII I do not see any multichannel preamplifiers that feature at least 6 balanced inputs and outputs, nothing from Audio Research, Bell Canto?

It does not seem the quetion is understood.
I am looking for an active volume controller (pre-amp) with 6 (six) balanced inputs that will be attenuated and then sent to 6 (six) balanced outputs.

Yes, Theta's six shooter would be great if Theta processor was not required.
I need a device that will allow me to connect 6 balanced inputs and take out 6 attenuated balanced outputs, as simple as that.
It may have more than a single set of 6 inputs (as is the case with EMM Switchman), but the point is that I need a master volume control for six balanced channels, so by simply looking at the back panel of devices such as Bel Canto Pre6 tells me it does not fit the bill, it does not have 6 balanced inputs and outputs.

There is no really a 6 channel source, I am looking for a volume control in analog domain for my active speakers project, 3-way activated, thus 6 channels that need master volume control.

Martykl,

It is exactly what I want to do.
And I am aware of DEQX, in fact I plan to use DEQX but with its digital output board, so that I can do DA conversion outside of it using higher grade DACs. From DACs I would then go into this multichannel volume control. So far only EMM Switchman MKII fits the bill.
DEQX would be used only for what it does best, crossover function using FIR filters, and maybe DRC if needed in lower octaves.
Meridian DSP controlled speakers are good, but you can do far better with your choice of drivers, DA conversion and amplification.
Reason I want to take this direction is that the more time I spend with various active speakers the more I am convinced that going active is the only way, and especially so going with DSP crossover.
Just a few weeks ago I made my last attempt at convincing myself that passive can be as good, so I went to hear what is arguably among the best speakers on the market today, Magico Q5. No way would I ever take that over well executed DSP controlled speakers.
