Yes.

Basically, yes. The Synthacon VCF inputs presume a single low-impedance
signal coming in. Injecting two signals at any of these inputs really
calls for a proper mixing circuit.

What's the opinion about the All pass feature? I know Cynthia Webster's
version of the Synthacon has it, but there is not a separate attenuator
for the All input.
