A word of warning in advance: If I am right, then my theories below are spoilers for the upcoming DLC.
So, did anyone else notice the conductor has one blue and one red eye? Coupled with his function name, I assume he was responsible for channeling blood magic into lyrium, creating red lyrium in the process. When the magisters tried to physically enter the Fade, they had to unify the two realms (physical & spiritual) somehow - the conductor was their means.
And possibly, some ancestor of Hawke was involved as well - maybe he IS the conductor. This would mean that the blood of the Hawke lineage is the means to enter the Fade (involving lots of additional blood) physically. Highly interesting, if you ask me. But maybe I'm just way off the mark, who knows.
Discuss!

Why does everyone keep saying "the Conductor"? Where does this come from?

Ahhhhh.
I guess that makes sense. It's not his name, however.

Can you tell us why the achievement is named The Conductor though?
I'm not certain. I don't create achievements. Possibly it has to do with the definition of a corypheus ( "the conductor, chief, or leader of the dramatic chorus"). Possibly it's to let people go on about what a terrible name Conductor is, even though we've never said it's anyone's name. Possibly it's to drive fans crazy.
These all sound good to me.

I'm just scared we'll spend a lot of time theorycrafting only to find out it was nothing.
You're trying to read too much into it. The explanation much simpler.
