Buttons and knobs, knobs and buttons.
It takes 5 minutes to get used to using one or the other. I often have my old Arnold controllers (knobs) set up as remote Cabs on my Lenz system (buttons). I run a train from one controller to another without any problem at all.
The buttons and the LCD display give a very fine control, but a good rotary encoder does just as well. If all fails, you can press the stop button, but I never use it so even that is something that has to be learnt.
