let's try:

  ecasound -c -z:mixmode,sum \
 	-a:sc -i scinput.wav -chmix:1 -chmute:2 \
 	-a:main -i imainnput.wav -chmove:2,3 -chmove:1,2 \
 	-a:sc,main -f:,3, -o loop,mixdown \
 	-a:mix -i loop,mixdown -eli:1427,0,75,100,-20,10 \
     	    -f:s24,2,48000 -o output.wav

So that should work. The scinput.wav can be mono/stereo thanks to 
'-chmix:1'. So we sort the three channels to right order, mix them down to 
'mix' chain via the loop object (it's important to specify the channel 
count for the loop object so it knows how many channels to pass through), 
run the LADSPA plugin, and write the first two channels of the result to 
output.wav.
