I think the unity gain input is much more useful than an output level
pot, personally.  I'd definitely go for that.  I have a couple of
serge MIX2 modules which have this feature, and it's very useful to
have & adds versatility.

As the m12 filter has an input level pot, as long as the mixer isn't
going to overload internally when all of the ins are cranked up full,
I don't think the output pot would be missed at all in use.

A simple dual attenuator (passive) or dual reversing
attenuator(active) might be a useful future utility module.
