This is my setup. Anything here that I should change for better mixing/mastering results?

Hi, @TruBlood
This will helps you to decide dithering options for your set up

Some tips from Ableton
To achieve optimal audio quality in Live, Ableton has provided a list of recommended practices and program settings.

• Decide which sample rate to use for a project prior to beginning work, rather than changing the sample rate while working on the project.
  
• Record audio into Live using high-quality hardware components (audio interface, cables, etc.) and at the highest sample rate and bit depth your interface and computer will support.
  
• Avoid using samples that are at different sample rates within the same project. If you want to work with such files, we recommend that you first convert them to the sample rate set for your audio interface in an offline application that is optimized for this task.
  
• For all audio clips, disable both the Warp and Fade options in the Clip View.
  
• Do not adjust the Transpose and Detune controls for any clips.
  
• Always render at 32-bit and at the sample rate set for your audio interface. If you need audio files at a different sample rate and/or bit depth, we recommend that you convert your rendered files in an offline application that is optimized for these tasks, rather than in Live

Note that these practices, while ensuring optimal audio quality, disable some of Live's functionality - in particular, stretching and synchronization.
About Driver error compensation, in your case i am not sure what you have done:
Live has a built-in lesson including a specifically calibrated set which allows you to set Driver Error Compensation. For the lesson you will need a cable and an audio interface with at least one physical input and output. This can be found in the help view:
Help > Help View > Show all built-in Lessons > Driver Error Compensation (under the Hardware Setup category). Follow the steps and it will give you the number for your set up. I hope some of these will help you and others Live users
And i have one question: why are you using 16 bit depth on export?
