How much crap can I plug into a 2 input Audio Interface?

Hey all! First post on here, so I hope it's not an overly dumb one.

I've got an EMU 404 USB audio interface, and it's got 2 audio inputs on it. I'm looking in to Micing my drum set to do some recording, and I was wondering if I could use a multi-channel mixer BEFORE the audio interface so I could run more mics.

Hey all,

I'm Shark. I'm just your run-of-the-mill garage musician here to learn a little more about recording. Basically I want to learn enough about recording to throw my music up on the web and not have people shudder. If it's better than that, great. Most of the time I play bass in an Indie rock band. I play a little guitar. Anyway, that's enough.
