How does this one compare to the ones on similar price range?

Im going to be plugin my monitors and my Magni 3 amp for the headphone and that's about it. Some extra ins and outs are good if I ever buy some hardware or something but that's unlikely. My brother has an Eventide H9000 and sometimes he doesn't use it, could I be able to plug it in there and use it as an VST effect on my DAW?
I don't understand what this means:
- 4 Line outputs: RCA
- 2 Main outputs: 6.3 mm jack
What is the difference between main and line outputs? Main is the one that has the knob and controls all other outputs? (except phones)
And what is that "input-DAW" knob for?
I also considered the Focusrite 4i4 but honestly I like how that one looks better and they are basically the same from what I can tell.
Currently I have the Audio Kontrol 1 which is a mess. Has discontinued drivers, somehow works in Windows 10 but freezes randomly and I have to plug and unplug it. Sounds great tho but the buttons are cheap plastic that screw up with the audio when you move them. Time to replace it.
Another question is, I see the UR24C uses RCA for the 2 non main line outputs... do you lose quality compared to 6,3mm?
Where should I plug my monitors and the Magni 3 at? I suppose main would be for the monitors so I can control both speakers with the big know, so I already have the XLR to RCA cables.
Then for the Magni 3 I put it in L1 and 1R so I would need a RCA to RCA cable (currently using RCA to 6,3mm for the Audio Kontrol 1). Like this one?
