Actually, that's very logical flow, and is common to lots of audio gear, 
and it's what I would design if I were doing it. Thinking in analog 
terms, first there's a mic preamp with a sensitivity setting (in this 
case, Mic H or L), then an output gain setting, then stuff that uses the 
mic signal. The good part is that once mic sensitivity, mic gain, and 
VOX are set for one mic, they should not need adjustment for another, 
because the mic gain setting would be readjusted for that second mic.
