Compressor pre or post mixer?

Hello

I have a question that may sound naive for many here.

Since I felt that I needed something to control excessive signal peaks during tracking (especially while recording vocals),
I thought a compressor was the tool I needed.
The thing I bought is an Aphex Compellor 300, that should act as compressor, limiter and leveller in an unique piece of gear.

Vintage Kasino 1600 15 Channel Mixer

I have a nice old kasino 1600 mixer with 15 channels. It has a case built on to it. Its a really neat old piece. Its really dusty at this time but It will clean up nicely. I was hoping that somebody could tell me a little bit about it. History or otherwise. It does have a decibel meeter. Model # 1600-HI Serial # 10277. If you can tell me anything at all it would be greatly appreciated.

Tapping in with a 2nd audio channel at a comedy club through mic cable not mixer

Forums

Hi, I do stand up comedy. Just got home from guitar center where I asked the guys there if this was possible. They sent me home with a Y cable that did not work. The idea is to tap in my iPad's sound through the club's microphone cable on stage while at the same time being able to talk and have them hear me as well.

Behringer X1222USB vs Mackie Pro FX12 Mixers

After having to use process of elimination to see if my mixer was the issue with a problem I was having, I now have 2 mixers for my podcast and I need to get rid of one. Was wondering if anyone has experience with both and might have a suggestion? I've used both briefly. The only thing I've noticed is that I need to turn the phones volume up a little more to hear the mics loudly.
