Well, I grabbed a Faderport today and installed it just now (easiest installation ever). After playing around with it for a bit, I definitely think this will improve my recording experience. Less mouse clicks, more hands on stuff.
It will probably take some time to really get used to, but I will spend my next two or three sessions focusing on trying to use it as exclusively as possible to work it into my habits. I think after that, it'll be hard to mix without it.
I look forward to getting good at riding the fader, which is a skill I never thought I'd be able to develop.
