opto device in compressor?

Max	opto device in compressor? Hi everybody! I was wondering how i could desing the opto part of a compressor,with a photoresistor and a lamp.The problem is i don't know which lamp and photoresistor to choose,i bet the lamp should be about 30 v one,and the res,should be about 1 meg. I think i'll use a triopde and heptode valve;the triode for primary amplification,and dephasing;then run the oposite phase in the photoresistor;and the normal signal through the lamp.And mix the two signals in the heptode. Best regards. Max.
