jamming with headphones daisy chaining mixers how? HELP!

Hi,

i live in an apt in new york city and can't disturb my neighbors.. I play drums but at home I use an electronic drum kit and have been practicing with my friends using headphones to monitor ourselves and we'd record sessions into my computer using the rca tape outs. I have only been playing with one musician at a time so a dual headphone splitter worked fine until now.

Yamaha MG124C Mixer ? any good ?

With regard to my recording project (a brass band) - see this thread {old-link-removed}
Our room is fitted with a maximum of 6 XLR stage boxes so with this in mind we are setting our initial budget to a maximum or 6 mic's and the associated gear needed.

Mic's in the range of sm57's due to the versatility they offer and a mixer in the £100 to £150 (new price) mark.

recommendations needed on new DAI & going mixerless

A newbie question here - I currently have a MOTU 1224 for AI w/ Mackie 1642 analog mixer - used for headphone / control room monitoring and mic preamps. My pc is old (doesn't have PCIe slots, so can't do a new UAD-2 card) and the 1224 is old, has limited connectivity and doesn't support 96khz - so am looking to do a few upgrades.

Mixer hiss

I just picked up the Zoom H2 the other day with plans to use it for field recording. I'd like to ask an opinion on a field mixer please.

I'm looking at a small and inexpensive field mixer to enable use of headphones with a couple mics. I want to be able to send the signal from this mixer to both my video camera AND the H2. I have my eye on the Rolls MX34.

I'm using a Behringer Mixer Xenyx 1222FX. I have to connect the Main Outputs of the mixer to the unbalanced line-in of a Dolby stereo amplifier which uses 2 RCA connectors. In order to make the correct wirings (balanced XLR -> unbalanced RCA), I have to know if the output stage of the mixer uses:
