The mic input has two channels.  The plug is TRS, that is, a single
metal shaft with three conductors (the tip, the ring and the sleeve)
separated by non-conducting material.  Take a look at the plug for any
set of headphones and you'll see a similar TRS configuration.

Cables are available that provide two jacks for connection to mono
mics, and a single plug to output the two channels to the minidisc
recorder.  For example, here's a cable that adapts two mono XLR mic
cables to a single 3.5mm TRS, suitable for a minidisc machine mic input.
