Will this sound setup work?

Sorry to clarify, the Aux out (which outputs the mic's recorded audio) on the Quadcast to a 6.35mm Line-in. 

I will tell you right now that that mixer will not make your audio better in any way shape or form, so if it is a usb mic I encourage you just to plug it in through usb, besides using adapters and making connections like that is a temporary fix not a permanent solution.

Hey! I need help with a setup I want for my Stream.

 

The Setup in mind is: HyperX Quadcast - Behringer Xenyx 502 mixer - Z390 Aorus Ultra Sound Module - Most likely: Beyerdynamic DT 880 250ohm

 

The main thing I need to know is: the HyperX Quadcast has an Aux out (for the Mic's audio) which I intend to put into the 6.35 Line-in on the mixer, would this work? I don't know if this would copy the audio from the mic into the mixer so I an use gain and EQ. I am not concerned about the other things working.

 

I already own the Quadcast and mobo prior to this lack of planning. I am not 100% sure if it would work and don't want to spend before I know.

 

Any answers and suggestions appreciated!

No, Quadcast is a USB mic, not XLR.
Aux out is for PC audio to headphones

If you already have the mic and mobo why do you need a mixer?

Just get an interface and a real mic, save you the hassle
