Mixing to computer

[blackmusic]

Okay, I've got a plan, I want to get a mixer (preferablly a beringer one) that has about 20 channels. From the mixer however i want to go into the computer, and use sonar to edit it. So here are my questions.

1) What kind of equipment would i need to put all 20 channels into my computer? A special sound card i would assume (or maybe im wrong)...

2)Would it be best to do the monitoring using the computer of the mixers monitor outputs?

Thanks again guys...

Do you want to get just a stereo mix into the computer or do you want separate tracks?......
