I have the 2 mics from Lips (by Microsoft), and I am trying to play Rock Band 3 with one person singing harmony and the other lead.
Is that possible?
For some reason, when I start the game, it only "sees" the controller that was plugged in first.
Am I missing something?

In Rock Band 3, only one controller is used for vocals, no matter how many mics are connected. (Also, if you have "All Instruments Mode" on, then no controller is used for vocals.)
If you select Solo, then singing is mostly the same as in Rock Band 1 and 2, with a single track for the vocalist. (While there are differences between older RB tracks and RB3 tracks, the mechanics are the same.)
If you select Harmonies, then singing is the same as in Beatles: Rock Band. One, two, or three vocal tracks will be available, depending on how the song was set up, and the track you match is based on your pitch, not on your microphone. That means the following things are true:
So, in your case, the first controller connected is assumed to be the vocalist's controller, and that person will need to select songs. You can decide between yourselves who will sing each part for each song - if necessary, you can change parts during the song without having to switch mics.
