Do I Even Need My Mixer Anymore?

A few weeks ago, I purchased a Presonus Firebox. It has enough inputs for my drum machine, synthesizer, and groovebox. I have other instruments (various Boss drum machines from the 80s and sundry Casio SKs and a Rapman). I'm trying to work out my bedroom studio, and am wondering if I should run everything into my Yamaha MG 12/4, then to the Firebox, or just leave it out altogether.

How do the rest of you do it?

I geinerally find that a good mixer has better inputs than those little deals, no matter how good they are(often times you're going right into the A/D on cheap ones...).
If those things are all you're ever going to use, then I'd just leave them plugged in.
It also allows you to run them all at once if you want, and it'll let you just leave them plugged together with MIDI.
Syncing and the like...
