Input, Effect Out, Dry Out (which toggles the sound effects with sound clean through 2amplis)
3 knobs: Volume, Tone and Sustain
1 switch with 3 positions:
position from the top "Bass Boost" that adds to the low frequency distortion.
middle position "Norm" is the sound of the Big Muff's standard.
position of the bottom: "Dry" that adds to the clean signal distortion

UTILIZATION

Operation is simple, big muff 3potards of standard, you branch it sounds.
I put a note for the simplicity of it, but for this new switch that provides many more opportunities than other big muff for the use of a bass.

SOUND QUALITY

Norm mode: the sound of a big muff standard fuzz enough fat
Bass Boost mode: I was a little disappointed, I expected more bass added. Nevertheless, this mode provides more fat distortion. the sound is very good, but do not abuse the tone and sustain knobs in this mode here, otherwise the distortion becomes uncontrollable.
Dry Mode: that happiness! My Precision bass (Mexican Standard) with the volume and tone background, it feels really punch my Plow through the big muff, it's really huge! I have no favorite settings, they are all really good ...

OVERALL OPINION

I have a tc electronic vintage distortion that simulates the tube, and I needed a Big Muff for a little more modern stuff and hardcore, while keeping my tc electronic tips for vintage / indie. I bought a Russian, the sound was good but the loss was considerable low ... impossible to play in a group with. so I sold it to a friend guitarist to learn that the bass big muff was out. And in this new big muff, I find the grain of the Russian, better defined, with more possibilities and of course no loss of bass fishing and in "dry" ... what more? : D
