    I need to get my output from windows 10 pc to my Qu24

    What I have now.
    I have a basic on board audio card with a 3.5mm to 1/4″ adapter connected to input 23/24.
    That’s working but I’m getting a hum.

    Then I have USB connected and can set ST1 out of pc to Qu24.
    That works but I hate having to select layers to adjust the level of that input.

    Questions
    Do I get a ground loop isolator for my 3.5mm adapter to get rid of the hum?
    Can I “route” that ST1 input to one or both of the inputs on on the main (ie 23/24)?

    You need some transformer isolation between the computer and the mixer.
    Something like this, there are other makes and models as well.

    You get an external USB audio converter.
    These work well….

    You could always directly connect the PC to the mixer via USB.

    As for ST1 and ST2 being on the top layer you can build a custom layer and include them in the custom layer along with your other needed channels.
