Almost all multi-channel external audio interfaces for computers have some sort of mixer app bundled with them to control their internal mixers.

Other than the "almost MIDI-controllable" MOTU interfaces, has anyone ever run across an external that has a mixer that's midi controllable?

I'm looking for:

At least 4 analog inputs (line level only needed) & 6 analog outputs
1u or 1/2-rack size
FW or USB is fine
MIDI-controllable hardware mixer (levels are the only thing I need to control)

I don't need any signal processing other than level, bussing and pan. i.e. no FX needed.

An RME UCX would do what you need. They're not cheap but you get what you pay for with these. I've used a few different interfaces from focusrite, presonus and motu over the years and this has been by far the best. Great software and drivers, though Totalmix is slightly complicated until you get it figured out. It does midi control either through Totalmix or also in standalone mode. There is also the fireface 400 which is the previous generation but same form factor. They're less expensive used. Pretty sure it has the same midi capabilities but you'd have to research that to make sure.

Maybe not your cup of tea, but the SL16.0.2 is MIDI-controllable. Works like a charm.

Is it possible to do do more than this list nowdays?

* Main Output Volume
* Effects A and B Output Volume
* Effects A and B Setting
* Effects A and B Assign to Mains
* Effects Mute between Songs
* Scene switching

I think that the OP wants access to the faders and pan as well and possibly the auxes also...
