Default Behringer BCF2000 VS Faderport

Hi there guys,


I really need your help on this one.
I'm searching for a Control Interface for my DAW (Reaper), and I'm on a tight budget (aren't we all).
For all my researches, these 2 control interfaces are the ones that I can afford, but I really don't know what to choose.

For what I know:

Behringer BCF-2000 (a little more expensive than the Presonus) has 8 motorized faders, but not touch sensitive.
I guess that means that for automation it's useless. Can you confirm that?
Also, seems to be lousy (even tho I don't give a crap to that).
The Presonus Faderport , only has one fader, but motorized and touch sensitive, so it would be a great stuff... but again...with just one lame fader (I also heard that the pan knob is useless).
I really don't know what to choose.
I have a one man's band projet (Insomnia Asylum - check it out on bandcamp, I released and album last year), and I record electric and acoustic guitar, voice, bass, keyboard, and programming drums.
What would you advice?

Is writing automation really lame with Behringer BCF-2000? Otherwise, I would dive for that one (8 faders... is awesome stuff).


Thanks in advance guys ;-)

I have the BCF. It's OK. The faders are a little noisy and and the documentation is terrible. If I had projects on hand that were in need of a bit more professional work, I'd use something else.

I don't use it for automation, though.
