They are second order, using biquads. With first order this problem
wouldn't exist as 1/(1+s) + s(1+s) = 1.

What you see is not the shape of each filter, but how they combine.
The lowpass is of the form 1/(1 + d s + s^2), the higphass is
s^2/(1 + d s + s^2), s = j f / fxover, d > 0.
The nominator of the sum doesn't have any term in s, and the two
others cancel at the xover frequency where s = j. Hence gain is
zero at the xover frequency.

Just a small gain difference in the compressors. If you
bypass them the dip is at exactly the set frequency.
