The BCF2000 controls can do 14 bits, using 2x midi CC channels, but it
may take a bit of scripting for you to make good use of that feature.
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?
