From what i can tell I wouldn't use that mixer for anything other than a kids birthday or something. If that's all you can afford you'll need XLR to 1/4" or Mic to instrument cable because that mixer doesnt have XLR inputs.

It also doesn't appear to have any preamps or phantom power so you would need those too (or at least a preamp if you are using a more normal dynamic mic like an SM57/58) to run mics in at anything close to a useable level

I think the faders act as the pre-amp like on contractor microphone mixers that have only a knob for level like the link below. As for phantom power.... not so much.

Without a lot of information provided, it's hard to help you. Are you using microphones? If so, what kind? How many inputs do you need? How many outputs?

Personally, I wouldn't go with that radioshack mixer. Here is a cheap mixer that would be better than the radioshack mixer. It has a lot more options on it.

Go with dastricks suggestion even tho it's a behringer mixer it's much more advanced than the the radio shack mixer and will meet your needs.
