Connect multiple AVAudioMixerNodes to AVAudioEngine

I'm having a crash when I try connecting two AVAudioMixerNodes to the microphone input of AVAudioEngine. I couldn't find documentation online how to manage two or more nodes to the same input.

What is the proper way to handle that case where you have multiple node listening to the microphone?

I'm calling those three method of after the other on the background thread:

    private func setupSession() {
        let session = AVAudioSession.sharedInstance()
        do {
            try session.setCategory(.playAndRecord, options: [.mixWithOthers])
            if session.isInputGainSettable {
                try session.setInputGain(0.2)
            }
            try session.setActive(true, options: .notifyOthersOnDeactivation)
        } catch let error as NSError {
            LoggerManager.shared.error(error: error, message: "Error while setting up AVAudioSession Category/Active status")
        }
    }

    private func setupMixerNodes() {
        analyzerNode = AVAudioMixerNode()
        analyzerNode.volume = 0

        volumeNode = AVAudioMixerNode()
        volumeNode.volume = 0

        engine.attach(analyzerNode)
        engine.attach(volumeNode)
    }

    private func makeConnections() {
        /* input microphone */
        let inputNode = engine.inputNode

        let inputFormat = inputNode.outputFormat(forBus: 0)
        let analyzerConnectionPoint = AVAudioConnectionPoint(node: analyzerNode, bus: 0)
        let volumeConnectionPoint = AVAudioConnectionPoint(node: volumeNode, bus: 0)
        engine.connect(inputNode, to: [analyzerConnectionPoint, volumeConnectionPoint], fromBus: 0, format: inputFormat)

        let mainMixerNode = engine.mainMixerNode
        let mixerFormat = AVAudioFormat(commonFormat: .pcmFormatFloat32, sampleRate: inputFormat.sampleRate, channels: 1, interleaved: false)

        engine.connect(analyzerNode, to: mainMixerNode, fromBus: 0, toBus: 0, format: mixerFormat)
        engine.connect(volumeNode, to: mainMixerNode, fromBus: 0, toBus: 1, format: mixerFormat)
    }

and I get this crash:

 AURemoteIO.cpp:1128  failed: -10851 (enable 1, outf< 2 ch,      0 Hz, Float32, deinterleaved> inf< 2 ch,      0 Hz, Float32, deinterleaved>)
