maybe I am wrong, but I clearly hear more than one source of signal. I belive, their whole track contains signals from microphone, piezo and magnetic pick up. And I am just curious, how they worked with it in mix, how they pan it etc.

Well first we seem to be having a "terminology" communication issue .
So from top.
While the term "track" is commonly, widely and ambiguously used , to describe an entire session or project or multi track song recording. In recording parlance a "track" is actually a single individual "channel" within a recording and is either mono or stereo.
So what it sounds like you are describing you want to do and what is happening in the videos are "multi track" recordings.
Specifically either 3 mono tracks, or 1 stereo and 1 mono track. The pair of Mics either on a single stereo track or on two different mono tracks, and the Pickup on a single mono track (or at least that is how it probably should be recorded and is likely what is going on in the videos') . Because then as I describe in my post #76 you can then pan the mic track/s , hard left and right and pan the pickup track up the middle then mix to taste. As Jim pointed out, because you will likely get a different tonal sound from a pickup as opposed to mic/s , you want to able want to EQ the pick up track separately from the mic track/s As per post number 76
You might want to post a screenshot of your entire session.
Here is what my sessions would look to accomplish what you are describing, If you have any questions about the screenshots, ( labeling, routing, etc.) please ask.
3 mono tracks
1 Stereo and 1 mono tracks
