The SSC32 (32 PWM channels, RS232 or TTL control) is $40. Useful for
light shows and servo monsters.

The SSC32 also supports stable digital levels ("discrete output" or
"byte output", 0-5v). Or you could approximate variable DC output by
filtering the PWM with caps. If this isn't a battery powered system,
I think I'd just use the 0-5v discrete output with some resistors to
keep from burning the LEDs.
