A friend wants to record video on a Nikon D800E DSLR while using
an external audio mixer.

the other option is to record "B roll" audio on the DSLR with a small
or built in mic and record the "real audio" on a separate dedicated
audio recorder.

The hard part is then syncing the two together during editing.

If you can "slate" at the start of the take, it makes it pretty easy
to sync.

Also the DSLR audio track will help in syncing the real audio to the
video

That's what I always do, and find audience applause "spikes" are often
enough to line up the two audio streams for concert recordings, adequate
for lip sync.
