Laptop/Microphone set-up (part B)

[Dmanlovesmusic!]

Part 2 of my dilemma... So if I can manage to get the laptop hooked up correctly, my next line of questions are regarding the microphone. My Mixer has 18w phantom power. Will I need an audio interface to record in my laptop or will the mixer convert the signals on its own? If I instead plug the microphone into one of the keyboards, will the keyboard convert the signal to be able to record on the laptop?

Dude... It's a different question!! This one refers to my microphone question and the other refers to mixer to laptop but since they both involve using the same mixer in the equation I chose the same title. Excuse me if I am wrong but I didn't want to confuse anyone by asking both "different" questions in the same post.

The Mixer provides phantom power to the mic and line level at the outputs and considerably hotter output to the headphone out.

You can plug the mixer directly into any line level device including a computer or an audio interface.
