Any unit that blows fuses needs to be serviced. Do not keep putting in fuses only for them to be blown again. Each time you put in a fuse and it blows, it will create more damage to the amplifier.
Chances are you've blown the output transistors. Speakon connectors cannot short out but jack connectors can and if it was not inserted properly you'll have presented a dead short to your powered mixer. In any event it is really bad idea to connect anything when it's switched on. If you're really lucky replacing the output stage (which will probably be dead short on the transistors) and re-adjusting the bias should sort you out.
There is a direct short somewhere. Is the fuse the right size amps? volts? You dont want to put an dc fuse in an ac power amp. Double check your fuses.
This particular mixer offers a usb (2 channel connection) that can be simply plugged into the computer usb 2.0. These channels should be available in Sonar from the channel Input/output drop boxes. You may need to restart Sonar, the mixer or both for them to be recognized. You may also need to run the Wav Profiler in Sonar. Typically the Wave Profiler is found in the Options>Audio menu but may be different on each edition of Sonar. The above info is for Sonar 7.
If you are wanting to record several channels at once then I would recommend connecting your Mixer's Direct Outputs from each channel to a corresponding input of the soundblaster if your soundblaster supports multiple channels. And then use the usb outbut from the Sonar to monitor the computer playback of your master stereo channel. Or, you may connect the soundblaster outputs to unused channels of the mixer or to the tape return or auxilary inputs to monitor the computer playback on the mixer.
Alternately you can send the signal to your soundblaster via the buss outputs. This will limit the number of simaltanious output channels to the number of busses on the mixer, but you can send any mixer channel to any buss without unplugging the instruments or mics.

Try Mouser electronics. Their website mouser.com is easy to navigate. The will ship just the one fuse if you need it. If you know the size and type of fuse they are usually the cheapest. You can also try Radio Shack. They also carry a large selection of fuses.
A local hardware store with drawers of screws should have what you need. The screws may be metric.
Take a sample screw with and find a nut to fit it to get the size and thread pitch. Then select a screw of that size of an appropriate length..
Nothing is worse than getting something that has obviously been worked on... you know it has a problem that they tried to fix and if you are lucky, they did not create others.
Sorry, since the mixer is powered by a "wall wart" adapter, it is UNLIKELY there are fuses in the unit.
If it is inoperative, then check the voltage of your power adapter. If you by chance connected a wrong adapter, try the correct one. It is possible damage was done in this case that is not so easily fixed as changing a fuse. The correct adapter looks to be a type AC14 which LOOKS to be a 15 volt DC, 500 ma, with negative on the pin.
