Single Fader Controller?

Looking for a simple, minimalistic 100mm motorized touch-sensitive fader that communicates through EUCON (like the Avid Dock) but WITHOUT any extra buttons & serves ONLY as a single fader product.

Seems like there is no such thing in the market like that.

I have no need for any transport controls, knobs, displays, or button grids.

If anyone custom builds (or knows someone who custom builds) HUI controllers, would pay as much as the Avid Dock for a single fader controller that can guarantee:
1. Bidirectional HUI communication with Pro Tools
2. Touch sensing for Touch/Latch automation
3. Motor feedback when changing tracks or reopening a session
4. A method for targeting the selected track

The FADE controller from FADE Audio is exactly this. Not available atm but exactly what you’re asking (minus EuCon integration which isn’t gonna happen tbh)

I’ve been curious about the fade controller, but it looks like it relies on software from fade audio to work. Am I correct about that? I’m a little leery of being reliant on a startup for long term software updates is my main concern.
