Well, actually better this one:

For human voice, I bought a USB audio card and plugged a third microphone into
it.  So now I have:

 mic1 for piano basses; |__________ plugged together into the
 mic2 for piano highs;  |           above Y cable
 mic3 for voice         -> -> -> -> plugged into the USB dongle.

Then I do:

 $ sox -t alsa default piano.wav

and, at the same time, on another xterm session,

 $ sox -t alsa wh:2,0 voice.wav

where wh:2,0 is the USB device (do: `arecord -l' first).  This way I get two
audio files: piano.wav and voice.wav.  The first one is stereo and the second
is mono.  In the end I merge the two together with Audacity.  By default,
Audacity puts the mono file just in the middle between left and right channel;
but, if you like, you can have it weight more left or more right, in the
percentage you want.  I must say that the result is acceptable, and more...

Thanks,

Rodolfo
