With small mixers one should to be careful to choose a model that has
additional independent outputs to connect your soundcard's inputs to
("Sub mix" or "ALT 3-4"). Otherwise you're bound to get feedback loops
when recording. Many small mixers lack these outputs. The Compact4 and
the HDR6 are example for mixers, that do have them, though. 

A more indepth explanation is on:

has a page on monitors.
