I look after a Behringer X32-Rack, which has no knobs, and is therefore
a digital

Digital Mixer:
The inputs (after preamp) directly feed an ADC, all mixing is done in DSP,
outputs are a DAC feeding an analog driver. The digital mixer may have
phyiscal or glass controls.
There are a lot of digital mixers around (maybe more than analog?) but in
the case of the 'X' series, they are all digital mixers, the X32 has a mix
of physical knobs with some glass controls and the x32 rack, x18, x16, etc
are all glass controls. So far as I know, they do use OSC for remote
control... or at least offer some data on it:
https://behringerwiki.musictribe.com/index.php?title=OSC_Remote_Protocol
There used to be a pdf which is probably around if you search.
The X-air mixewrs also use OSC for control which are similar but not the
same... or maybe only a subset works (I have never played with them).
There are some utilities on github, sf and google for sending/receiving
OSC for these devices or just examining the traffic. Behringer has Linux
utilities for controlling these mixers remotely for free download and I
expect wireshark can teach you anything you wish to know about the OSC
that the above link does not provide.
All of the X mixers are meant to be remote controlled from a tablet (Mac
or Android) and so those apps can be installed from the usual places.
