We find the Big Muff Pi NYC with Volume Control, Tone and Sustain and the Bypass.
And more: 1 switch Bass Boost / Normal, 1 control for the attack, 1 "Noise Gate", one parametric midrange EQ consists of two control buttons, one Hi Switch Mids / Lo Mids and an on / off footswitch .

UTILIZATION

Not really need instructions, you can see immediately what are the various controls.
We have the opportunity to add to it an expression pedal to control the media.
The "Bass Boost" is useful if you play at lower volume.

SOUND QUALITY

ITS HUGE !!! It was always good sound with this pedal, there has to choose what you want.
Adding controls of mediums is a definite plus to change the nature of the beast, or to perform a midrange boost on a solo ... etc.
As in the standard version (NYC), it's hard to break into a mix without having to "boost" a little (The Big Muff love it!).
The "Noise Gate" is effective but sometimes prevents you to have some "end of notes" that range, typical Big Muff (BCP used by Mr Jack White).
The sound is less clean than with a conventional Fuzz (Fuzz Face-type) but it is going in the right direction ... And there's this oscillatory effect / chaos that is not found elsewhere!

OVERALL OPINION

It was the classic Big Muff Pi USA but much more versatile!
