Boss ds-1 question

[BeemerBoy]

I have an ols Boss DS-1 with the ET5205-510B board.

Does anyone know where I can find either a kit or instructions for modding this pedal or should I just give it to some teen rocker?

Thanks in advance

What is the impetus for modding? Is there something else you want/need it to do, or something you need it to not do?

Cant remember what these were supposed to do, improve a basically good unit with average sound, to a much more versatile unit.
C1, C10 – change to 0.047uf
C2, C8, C14 – change to 1uf
C3 – change to 0.068uF
C5, C12, C13 – change to 0.1uf
C9 – 0.47uf
C11 – 0.033uf
D4, D5 – change to Red 3mm LED
R13 – change to 2.2k
R14 – change to 1.5k
R16 – change to 4.7k
R39 – change to 22k


can also change the clippers to mosfet type, refer AMZ diode clipping

change R9 from 22 ohm to 1k
change R6 from 100k to 150k

change R17 to 15k to keep more bass in the tone control when swept to the treble side
change C10 to 56n to darken tone
