What's confusing about this circuit is that there is more than one way
to implement the output.
One method, as you've noted below, is to have two pots feeding into a
two channel mixer. One pot sets the level of the unprocessed signal
(or the DRY signal), the other pot sets the level of the resonator
output (after the GAIN pots). A second is to have one pot that selects
either the resonator output (full strength) at one end of the pot
rotation, or the unprocessed signal (full strength) at the other end
of the pot rotation, and a MIX of the two at points in between.
I prefer the two pot approach because once you've gotten the balance
between the three filters figured out, you can then change the overall
output level and mix in some of the unprocessed signal without having
to futz with the three GAIN pots.
What you've got is good, despite not having 3 attenuators for the
inputs (which is not critical). But Dave's 2U small-knob version has
that, which is probably how I'll build mine.
