What do you consider to be the best features of this product? What features would you add to this product if you could?
Faders are obviously the best part of this piece of gear. If you are tired of mixing/controlling your VI's and plugins with a mouse - BUY the BCF!!!
Especially great for use with REASON by propellerhead!

Although the manual is not very helpful, if you know signal flow and basic midi functions, you will have no problems learning this tool. Easy to use with most sequencers and DAWs since the BCF comes with factory and downloadable presets! And if you're not happy with the presets, visit the behringer website and download the command editor!
Overall
Your general opinion of this product.

Excellent and Affordable Control Surface

It's way cheaper than any other control surface out there, and it works. The faders aren't touch sensitive, but they are automated, and I don't need touch sensitive faders, so this product is great. I also use an iPad as a control surface, but the BCF2000 has quickly replaced most of my mouse and keyboard usage.

I purchased this as a control surface for Logic Pro 9 and it works great. There is an excellent tutorial for using it with Logic Pro 9 on youtube. WIthout that youtube tutorial, it would have been a little confusing to setup, as the manual pretty much is worthless.

Had to download firmware and drivers (no disk included). Make sure you turn it on in the proper "mode" for your DAW software. I have used it with Sonar 7, 8 & 8.5, Reason 4 & 5 and Record 1 & 1.5 with no issues. (Kicks butt with Record/Reason duo!!!)

Yes, worth far more than the $180 of so I paid for it.

When i plugged it into my mac it worked fine after i looked up how to do it on youtube. I wouldn't have thought to put it in Baby Hue mode.

For $175 you can not bet it. It is a must grab if you have a home studio.
