The main advantage of motorised faders is that you could then switch between sets of parameters and the (re-assigned) faders will jump to the correct place, allowing you to adjust the new parameter cleanly, and if a parameter is changed by the computer (say you are playing back a mix with recorded values for that parameter) then the fader will follow these values. For your use the groups of faders would be useful since it would be reasonably easy to arrange the switching between groups via a CL interface (certainly it would work well on a BCF2000). I don't know if it would be easy to set up a way of recording your parameter changes while you listened - some GUI apps (eg ardour) allow that easily but it may be harder to find a CL app that could work that way?
