Well, if you got the interface, you won't need the mixer. What ever program you'll be recording into already has a mixer built in on every track layer lol. its what controls the track panning and the volume.
As for the quality, well, you gotta remember that the less hardware and circutry your sound goes through, the clearer it is. All components have resistance of course. Each device adds their 2ยข to the original sound, even if YOU don't alter it one bit. The only reason to go with hardware to do wht software already does losslessly (meaning without warpage or deteroation of sound) is because a specific piece of hardware gives you a specific sound that you're looking for, and you're only going to discover that after you get really deep into it. And even still I could make the argument that plug-ins can still absolutely merkulate that anyway!! There's things you can tune with software that you couldnt' even achieve with pieces of hardware under a few thousand bucks a pop.
I could tell you a horror story about a beautiful Presonus tube pre and a sleek MXL 9000 that made love to the sound of static, muffled highs and muddy lows that were supposed to be 'warm'.
^^That was my personal wake-up call and the realization that it's the digital age. You record on a digital mic with digital signals in and out. Introducing analog equipment into the mix is rarely a good idea, which is why most people's set-ups go from one expensive bandaid to the next to get the sound they want, just like I did before reality struck.
