Help for possible CQ18t buyer

Hi
I am new to this forum and need some advice
I play keyboards and a little guitar but I am a newbie when it comes to mixers and trying to hook everything up

I have backing tracks I purchased and would like to do a one man band scenario

I would like to Stagetraxx 3 for my backing tracks going into a CQ18t
The stage tracks allows 8 backing tracks
6 of the tracks would be instrumental and the 2 other tracks click and voice cues go to an in ear system
I play keyboards and guitar so that is 2 more inputs
I need also two vocal mics 2 more inputs

That is the audio side

One the midi side I would like the Helix stomp Xl and the keyboard to receive midi messages from the stage traxx 3

My 1st question is
Is the CQ 18t able to do this and be the best fit?
I really like the ease of the Cq18 its form factor and ability to quickly dial in settings for different venues

The 2nd question is can someone help me with the Instructions of the best way to setup my configuration
Thanks so much for taking the time
