One thing to say about #Behringer #XR18 - there are 2 kinds of users: Those who have been bitten in the ass using their built-in WiFi AP, and those who will be bitten in the ass by it. Use TP to connect, or connect your own AP from a reputable manufacturer.

I spent the initial portion of the morning mucking with #dhcpd so that one of my ethernet devices could assign a fixed ip to the #XR18 simply so i could use the mixer (X Air Edit) on my desktop. Big fun.

Things I'm learning whilst doing #DroneDay -

1) Place a compressor / limiter in using `calfjackhost` into your chain and connect everything coming out of your mixer into it and then this compressor / limiter to #Darkice, otherwise your stream is going to be weak / much too soft.

2) Check your mixing constantly if you have more than two (stereo) inputs destined for darkice. Have the mixer on screen in front of you at all times. I use the #XR18.

After a few months of deliberation, I purchased this apparatus, as recommended by @luka. I'm simply using it as a studio mixer / sound card for now, but am very pleased.
