Regarding the level/quality in the recordings - the indicator ring on the gain knob for the channel I was using does change color and goes to yellow/red with loud volume in to the mic. On Focusrite Control the clip indicator does hit if I get up there.

AC power is possible, yes. If possible I'd like to get a mixer that can run from USB, but as was previously mentioned - the power a USB port provides is pretty low so I am not opposed to having a separate power source (AC plug in). As far as power goes - the most important thing (by far) is to get good phantom power to a condenser mic.
