Imagine that you have a very basic midi controller which consists of just one on/off button. This could be 'mapped' to control any parameter that it is suited to eg. play/pause or effect on/off and so on.
the first two images are only midi controllers and have no analogue use whatsoever.
The pioneer mixer is a little confusing/misleading as it can send both analogue and digital (midi) signals.
A newmark mixtrack pro is , as far as i am aware only a midi controller.
I suggest that you should wikipedia midi so that you get a better understanding, its basically just saying to a computer - turn so and so on off, or up or down.
Hope this helps!
