Hello,
today because I was not satisfied with the sound of my memory Boy, I've opened it and try those mods:

Filter Mod: I've used a 10k resistor in series with 10nF capacitor before the FB pot. Just cut one trace. Thise mod take off some bass and the sound now it's not so muddy, more tape like I think. Cause I don't want remove the BDD board to try modify the filters I think it's a good compromise.

Depth Mod: I find this pot unusable. I put a 100K resistor in series with these pot. I had cut the leg of the pot. Now the range it's more human. For that mod you've to take off the whole PCB, be careful.

Gain Mod: if you have drop in volume you can just twek the GAIN ADJ trimmer. It do what it's said. It's near the EXP PEDAL jack.

Hope It's useful for someone.

Mago!
