I'm wondering if you could run three mics and three instruments to a single SA220 if you have something like a TC Helicon VoiceTone to preamp one of the mics and the instruments are all preamped (either onboard or offboard). I'm thinking that you could take the mics to the Channel 1 input, the Channel 2 input and the Monitor In (using the VoiceTone). I'm thinking that you could take the instruments to the Channel 1 EFX return, the Channel 2 EFX return and the Aux In.
I'm going to try an experiment with my own SoloAmp and see what happens when I run a mic to channel 1 and a guitar signal to the EFX return of channel 1.
I'll also try using my VoiceTone preamp to take a mic into Monitor In.

I gave it a try tonight and learned that plugging into a channel's EFX return jack kills the channel's mic input. There may be a way to hack around it (a Y connector, possibly), but I'm hesitant to mess around too much with stuff which I don't understand. I could end up harming the SoloAmp.
On the plus side, using a TC Helicon VoiceTone pedal to take a mic signal to the Monitor In works well. That makes four inputs (including Aux In) which a SoloAmp user could use simultaneously in a pinch.
