I've been shopping around looking for a good mic setup. I've read in past threads that if you're running the sound into the camera, it's best to put it through a mixer first. So, I picked I was wondering if this cheap mixer would get the job done. I'm not exactly rolling in cash right now 
, so I'm also wondering how much of a necessity a mixer is in the first place? I'm probably going with an azden mic and shock mount and an $80-90 boom pole. Just something to hopefully get the job done. Any advice? 
Edit: I was also looking at something like this since I'm going to have to convert that XLR into mini anyway. Could I use something like that instead of a mixer?
