Hello Andy, The better way and professional way is to mic up each member of the band with a mic that has the dynamic range of that sound source. So a mic for a guitarist is different to that for a vocalist. If the band wanted you to make a CD for them this is what you need to do. These mics

Yes the NT1-A is a mono mic. The advantage of using 2 seprate mics is you can go as far apart as you wish. So I'd do ORTF with the 2 of them. But instead of the defacto 110 degree angle aiming i'd go 180 degrees. But if you do want a stereo mic the AT-8022 I have is epic. It's nice and wide.
