Audio Setup for Live with external audio mixer and midis.

Hey everyone !
I'm kind of stuck right now and i'll try to explain my situation the best way that i can but i think my English is not good enough so i apologize in advance if i am not understandable.
I'm currently using Live 9 suite and Push for studio production. I am also using an old Korg midi keyboard just for the feel of it (because some times push can be great but much more difficult for me to understand than a regular keyboard).
My audio soundcard is actually the traktor s4, wich is very simple to use and to setup with Ableton Live.
BUT, the thing is that the s4 does not have any "phantom" to power a microphone. So, i recently bought a behringer xenyx usb audio mixer (which is awesome by the way) and now it is kind of difficult for me to understand how should i setup the audio routing.
Here is what i would like to do :
- Have the midi korg keyboard, push, and the microphone into different channel of my Xenyx audio mixer. (This would be for live gigs so i can manage the volume of every single instrument separately), and everything going out through the master of the audio mixer.
I understand that i won't be able to manipulate the master "into ableton" but i will have to do it directly "on the audio mixer".
To be honest i've been kind of trying every setup possible but there is always something wrong (and i don't know what or why ?)
So i hope maybe one of you will have the answer ...
Thanks a lot and long live ableton !
