FUZZ- WONDERFUL AUDIO TECHNOLOGY Fuzz Lands ___ NEW ___ one size fits all?

Most and indeed many of the best Fuzz pedals tend to take a specific type of Fuzz and try and tweak it's raw design to something exaggerating it's best things and taming down it's worst. Often this rips the soul out of it but done really well it can make the pedal literally more usable.
The approach to this Fuzz to do none of this but to build a Fuzz from the ground up. The idea was to borrow all the most notable features of the different types of Fuzz pedals and let you you blend these elements like spices in a meal to get your own dish of Fuzz.
The layout is volume and gain and 3 switches with these fixed parameters.
The first is 'Vintage Mode' which is a low gain with more of an OD vibe. The second is 'Modern Mode' with highly saturated tones and some broken up spit and sputter. The third is 'Earth' with a choice of a tight focus or a more open sound. The fourth gives you three sounds, Gated, Smooth or Nasal. It is basically a BIAS control with 3 fixed voltages.
CONCLUSION  
Is it a bit too much like the Jack of all Fuzz and the Master of none? It however could never be anything but. Seen as it's own thing like a cook making a sonic
meal and adding different Fuzz sounds to make his own special dish is not unfair. 
You will have to decide is it gourmet burger or is it a Big Mac??? It is definitely  
not a Muff, a Tonebender a Fuzz Face or an Octave Fuzz.
