Hello, I am in the process of gathering information on different mixing consoles on the market and so far the one I like is the StudioLive 32SC. I have several questions regarding the functional capabilities and was unsure where to ask so here I am.
I need a mixer for livestreaming setup on Twitch. Down below I will list the requirements that I have and would like to know if the mixer is capable of doing what I am trying to achieve.

1. XLR In for microphone. That one is obvious, next.
2. I use a Sennheiser GSX 1200 as an output device for the games I play only for it's virtual surround sound capabilities. The device has a 3.5mm Stereo out. My questions here is, will I be able to have the two line ins on the mixer on a single fader, or will I be forced to use two faders for the left and right channels?
3. I would like to have my browser output sound on a separate channel on the mixer through USB. Will I be able to assign Chrome to a USB input on the mixer through the Windows settings or perhaps a program such as VirtualCable? From the information that I gathered it is possible, but my main concern is, will the sound from the browser be stereo or just MONO?? I would like to have my VOIP program where I talk to other people on separate USB channel as well, and I want to output Spotify app on it's own channel. Will they only be in MONO or are the USB channels stereo? If they are, is there a way to combine two USB channels into one stereo to have the app in question on a single fader on the mixer. If it is not possible, could anybody recommend a console that is capable of doing those things. It would be very unfortunate if I have to buy a different physical device and cables for every output I desire. I plan on having Mic, Game, Browser 1, Browser 2, VOIP and Music app on separate channels of their own for easy adjustments while live.

Any help and info would be appreciated!
