Glad it's working out at least partially for you so far. The issue about hearing your vocals is another routing issue. You are going to have to experiment a bit to get it straightened out because the Alto live 802 manual and the live 802 sales information contradict each other. As you see from what I copied from the manual in the above post, the manual indicates output (send) from the mixer is only the Main Out.
The marketing information states: "USB Audio Interface Record your mix directly to a Mac or PC with a single USB connection. Live 802's built-in USB port allows engineers, producers, and performers to convert two channels of 24-bit audio (Main Mix or Sub Mix 1/2) straight to a computer. Record live performances, band practices, theater performances, speaking events, and any other live sound event onto your computer for additional editing, mixing, and post-production. The USB connection is bi-directional, enabling sound files stored on your computer to be streamed to and played through Live 802."
The marketing information is the normal expectation of USB outputs for USB mixers in the price range of your device. The manual single output is not. Which one is correct? I suspect the marketing information. But you'll have to experiment to determine which is correct.
The result you want is to send your vocals (or vocals plus guitar or whatever sum of the mixer inputs you want out to the computer) and monitor the BiAB audio mixed with the desired mixer audio. There is some ambiguity in terminology with your device. The manual does not address what the mix is that goes to the Ctrl Out choice. The Ctrl Out is a different output from the monitor out physically and we know it is not a duplicate of the Main Outs. The mixer also has Insert outputs that are meant to send a line level signal to an external device. The Monitor (Aux 1) send has physical returns and a fader so my guess is the Ctrl Out setting follows the Monitor signal. To check this, set your headphones to the Ctrl Out setting and turn up the Aux 1 send on your vocal channel and turn up the monitor fader and listen for your vocals. If you hear your vocals then since you now have the BIAB vocals on the Ctrl Out setting you can mix your vocals with the BIAB audio and monitor your recording from the mixer headphones while sending just the main mix output with your vocals back to the computer and audio input of BIAB.
The bottom line is you can accomplish recording your vocals and monitor your recording correctly with the equipment you have but you have to find the right combination of settings on the mixer between the Ctrl output and Main Mix output.
