Lo-Cut Button on mixer

Lo-Cut Button on mixer

When Micing off drums when would you use the lo-cut button. This is what I think but I am a noob so please correct me of I am wrong.

I think, when Micing off the entire kit you you have the lo-cut turn on for the overheads and Hi Hat.

When only Micing off the snare and kick and overheads you would have the lo-cut turned off for the overheads

Mixer

Im looking to buy a mixer for recording, right now I'm usuing a powered peavery pa head into my new soundcard which is a soundblaster xtreme fidelity. The quality I get is pretty good but theres lots of hiss. Im assuming it's because of the pa, I'm looking to spend around 500-800, what i want is a mixer with eight tracks ( by that i mean eight XLR inputs with eq settings).
