One of the Pad Pages serves as Track Mutes (for tracks 1-8). the encoders serve different functions, depending on what page you're on (such as track volume, pan, zoom in/out, playrate, semitone adjust on items, etc). Top button functions depend on the page you're on: item editing, midi channel routing/mapping, track template/plugin inserts, automation modes, play/loop regions directly, hit up markers directly. Advantage of Mikro MK2- each PAGE per Template can have a different encoder function. You can also track up/down with a pair of buttons. The MK2 and MK3 need different Templates for the Click-Encoder to be set to other stuff, which, after some thought, serves best as a jog wheel (left/right per measure) or track scroll (previous/next). Basically only need one Controller Editor Template for Maschine Studio. (Maschine Studio has 6 total Jogwheel pages which are INSANELY useful). Easily add a marker to your project with the Enter or Lock button on all Maschines. Jogwheel - Jog by measure (left or right), and center button shows/hides FX Chain (or another function, depending on the Template or page). I make indie/ambient/dreamy stuff as well as hip-hop and a lot of electronic stuff. Trying to make each button correspond with good, useful Reaper functions (at least for me). They're all making good use out of the jogwheel (on Studio) and the Click-Encoder (on MK2, Mikro MK2, and Maschine MK3). I've been working tirelessly (and tiredly) on setting up Reaper Actions (both Custom and regular), to make a near-mouseless workflow with Maschine MK2, Studio, MK3, Maschine Jam AND Mikro MK2 (and of course, Controller Editor Templates for each of them).
