Default Re: 1 rig, 2 mics simultaneously

My tracking looks like this:
Track 1 High Gain - Panned Left - 57
Track 2 High Gain - Panned Right - 421
Track 3 Low Gain - Panned Left - 57
Track 4 Low Gain - Panned Right - 421

Is there any way to streamline my efforts? Obviously in a real studio environment, both mics would be setup and I would just have to track my high gain part once and then my low gain part once. Is there any way to run one amp with two mics simultaneously? Like the 57 could be assigned to the Eleven Rack L input and the 421 to the Eleven Rack R input?

Hopefully I didn't make that as clear as mud. I appreciate the feedback!
I'm not aware of anyway of tracking through more than one mic at once. However there's no reason you couldn't take your direct track. Duplicate it and then ReAmp it using the amp model and and mic you want.
