Sovtek Deluxe Big Muff Pi

i am extremely excited for this pedal. Does the gate knob give it a synthy gated quality?

Here are the specs-
The Sovtek Deluxe Big Muff Pi provides:
1. MIDS EQ – Parametric MIDS EQ section with a selectable center frequency ranging from 310Hz to 5.0kHz, a level control with up to 10dB of boost or cut and a high/low Q switch that sets the resonance/bandwidth of the EQ
2. FOOTSWITCH for MIDS EQ – Dedicated on/off footswitch with status LED for the MIDS EQ circuit
3. GATE – Noise gate to remove unwanted hiss and hum
4. BLEND – Mix control for the dry and distorted signals. Enables bass players to retain their signal’s low end; also useful when layering in other distortion pedals
5. WICKER– With the switch up, high frequency bandwidth is opened up for a more pronounced attack. Switch down yields the traditional Green Russian sound.
6. EXPRESSION PEDAL INPUT – sweeps the frequency of the MIDS EQ to create wah wah and cocked wah effects
7. TRUE BYPASS – maintains signal path integrity in bypass mode

Ordered one yesterday, got tracking number this morning and guaranteed delivery by Friday.
I did buy it from a place in Georgia and I live in Florida so barring any xmas log jams in shipping I'm hoping to have by Wednesday night practice.
I'm kinda exited!

I got my sovtek on Wednesday and spent about 5 minutes with it before practice that night, tweaked it a bit more at practice and thought it sounded good.
Now that I've spent a few more days with it, got my expression pedal all hooked up, I frickin love this thing! Can't wait till next practice.
